Skinks are the smartest of all. They turn themselves blue, break themselves in pieces and than they go back to their natural colours and put their bodies back together again.

^False.  Most species of skinks have long, tapering tails they can shed if predators grab onto them.  Such species generally can regenerate the lost part of a tail, though imperfectly.  A lost tail can grow back within around three to four months -- regenerated, not reassembled.

I have three cats but I like normal dudes, myself.

Come as you are: Bad Boys, Girly Guys, Nice Guys, Nerds, Punks, Sportos, Motorheads, Geeks, Sluts, Bloods, Wastoids, Dweebies, Dickheads, Righteous Dudes, and the occasional Holy Priest.

Whatever floats your boat is good with me.

Just don't be a dick to other humans, and we'll get along fine. :mrgreen:



I got two cats and they're very spicy.

I think this whole thread is in the broadest sense on the subject of innovative cock blocking it seems. I have to give credit where it's due, the woman is very outside the box though very abusive.

Females cock blocking is an interesting phenomenon which isn't discussed much but can happen a fair bit. One woman I knew who liked me, upon assuming I might be hanging around with other women, constantly used underhand tactics to try and prevent me interacting with them.

Just going to a restaurant because she was bored that had to be "pre-booked" that don't even do bookings. Sudden "emergencies" that need immediate attention. Needing to pick her up from a place miles away...all at times just before she thought I might be heading out to meet women. That combined with deliberately ignoring me when I said I needed to go home because it was getting late and and saying other women weren't interested in me made for some unpleasant times.

If a main dating tactic involves preventing others from dating rather than improving oneself then it's all the red flag anyone needs. I see men and women do this sometimes.

Legless lizards are the smartest. They constantly cosplay as snakes, but aren't.

The term “cock blocking” always gives me visuals akin to sword fighting. :lol:

Anyway, yeah, I’ve experienced weird behavior like you described in your post. It’s generally from people who are insecure in some way (or multiple ways).

If only. It would imply someone got lucky haha.

But real cock blocking is frowned upon by men. Men have an unspoken rule of letting other men go about their private business when it comes to women.

Men who are obstructive in any way, including trying to emaciate others to try and prevent them being attractive to other women are frowned upon by other men. It's seen as very unsporting and underhand by men themselves....... and men can get nasty about the whole dating game so that says it all.

If this woman wants an emaciated man then she shouldn't be surprised when he might turn into a man child that needs constant support and emotional attention due to a shattered sense of self worth.

^ My experience with this behavior was either ridiculously funny or obviously abusive - nothing in-between. I’ve never been into dating multiple people. I just mean in terms of having male friends.

I don’t really care about societal views of masculinity and femininity because I think they are largely socially constructed. I would probably have trouble relating to someone who presented himself as “hypermasculine,” though. I’ve experienced too much abusive behavior from such folks.

I’m also not entirely straight.

I've heard the term cockblocking before but I had no idea what it meant. Is it something women do, for the most part? It means they're blocking men from meeting other women? (Or I suppose gay men could also do this?

Supposed to apply to men but also women can do it probably more often than many realise. It's basically preventing others from romantic or sexual activity.

I think both men and women do it in an attempt to whittle down the competition because the cock blocker is inept him/herself but it's always frowned upon. Men often get roughed up for it and if a woman does it, it's a massive red flag she'll be a control freak.

The woman subject to this thread falls into the latter and is a massive control freak which comes as a surprise to nobody. Her tactic of making a man stick with her seems to revolve around dragging him down rather than pulling herself up.

WTF are you serious? I'm so glad I'm not Neurotypical. I can't think in complexities like that. I don't have enough of a strategy for keeping my house clean let alone manipulating other people or playing head games to control them.

Oh good! I'm glad. Stuff like that does my head in.

I can't even watch Survivor because of all the social strategy.

I'm pretty sure I missed the memo on that, whether it involves cockblocking or not.

I got off the Social Skills bus around age 13, max. 8O

It can be common with certain people sadly. The majority are decent enough to not do it but I'm actually about to call a pub in Caerphilly right now to make sure a table reservation tomorrow at 7pm is actually a reality as I know the pub doesn't insist on reservation despite a woman insisting they do. One of the examples I gave might well be real and applying to me right now......again.

If this reservation isn't in her or my name them I'm making my excuses and chilling out with my friends instead this Saturday.
