Hmm, I should work on the "know if girl is flirting with me" thing.

One time a girl asked me "Do you know anything fun to do around here?" To which I replied "No, I don't do anything fun."

Once my FAFSA money comes in, I'm getting certified in a few things. Personal training cert, TEFL cert, and possibly ASE automotive cert. With all those things no actual degree is required, just knowledge enough to pass the tests. Personal training for most of them, to be a high level, does need a bachelors, though. Those certs here and abroad would open doors.

I'd probably be most comfortable in Japan, considering I know enough Japanese to understand like 5-10% of whatever's going on in a conversation. I think I'd pick it up reasonably easy compared to other Asian languages. Also, Chinese, I tried taking a Chinese class and couldn't do it, as I couldn't sound out even the pinyin correctly. Too hard. It sucks when I go to the Asian market here and sound out the pinyin like an idiot and then the lady just has to move her hand around the shelf of products until she lands on the one I want.


Well, off to Japan you go, then.

But, just so you know: Thailand is a LOT of fun. Don't miss it.


Like is Thailand fun in a like "yay I'm in Florida and I'm going to the beach!" kinda way, or fun as in "let's go get some hookers!"

I do like Thai food, and Thai food is cheap as hell in Thailand. Like it'd probably be $.50-1 per meal compared to what I'd pay $7-14 for in USA. So maybe if I just eat a shedload of food there even if I totally hate it, I'd break even? Also I can't cook any Asian food worth a damn for some reason. Fuuu, need Asian girlfriend to teach me to cook Asian food.

The other cool thing in Asia is EVERY store is an Asian market. I gotta go 10 miles to my local Asian market here, and I'd probably do 90% of my grocery shopping at it anyway because I'm so kawaii desu ne if my mom would give me money to go there instead of buying stuff at Walmart. Asian markets got the best produce, imo. Same price or cheaper than like, Aldis or equivalent, but the same quality as higher priced stuff at Whole Foods even.

I guess letting them come to you works best at least in my case but then again I live in an area with a large Asian population, and I give off this aura that makes them feel safe and lets them know Im harmless and a very friendly guy!....or they might have a white fetish hopefully not that case though ug.

And, hopefully soon :cyclopsani: will be appropriate
In due time yes just like with any other woman, but most Asian women like most proper women don't just jump the gun and go strait to that. Most Asian women are somewhat conservative and save themselves for when the time is right. If shes willing to go that far Im fine but in the meantime I must respect her space and boundaries so she needs to feel secure with me and I with her and well see how things go from there. Sexuality is reserved for when the time is right and for the right person. I must respect her like any other woman after all when a woman moves too fast it kind of freaks me out. Enough sexual encounters lead to emotional attachment so before getting into that we need to be compatable with eachother and get to know eachother better and if we both have strong emotional feelings for one another then maybe that time will come and after that it can lead to an actual serious relationship. I have been semi apprehensive with people I sleep with anyway because after enough times it leads to emotional attachment and it leaves me vulnerable and I am sure it works the other way too, well see how things go besides we just got together and usually it takes 3-4 dates minimum for the big boom boom! I know I might come off as soft squishy and sentimental and such but thats how I feel.

Both. Plus the temples are amazing. In the north, you can go on a guided trek through hill-tribe country, and ride an elephant. The South has the beaches. It used to be very very cheap. It probably still is.

Why would you eat a shedload of food if you totally hate it?

Food is cheap and plentiful. There would hardly be a reason to cook for yourself there, as there are people selling food everywhere. A Thai girlfriend who can teach you how to cook should be easily arranged, though.

Anyway, my friend is like "Dude I'm f****, this girl makes $80,000 a year." He still lives with his mom and dad, but is 25. She graduated from Brown and works in some cool firm and drives a BMW or an Audi. She's also a red belt in taekwondo, and runs 4 miles everyday.


But how long they can remain like this together? If he remains like this for a more couple of years his insecurities would increase- plus don't ever think it's not bothering her or there's no some hidden deadline even if she doesn't show it or talk about it explicitly.

I bet it's bothering/worrying them both equally IF they're planning for something more serious.

A such huge imbalance usually doesn't last.

If they get along fine, there is no reason why differences in education and income should matter. I tend not to judge people that way. In fact, I've generally found most of the people of my educational level and former income to be despicable.

Moreover, since women are now outperforming men, both academically and professionally, more women are going to have to satisfied with men of lower social status. And, women are going to be increasingly able financially to support themselves plus such a husband.

Moreover, if you consider a woman with a high education and a high power job, who has to put up with pigs in suits all day, does she really want to come home to another pig in a suit? For some, the answer is yes: double the income, and double the stupid crap she can buy. Other women might prefer just to come home to someone with whom she can relax, unwind and be comfortable. Maybe watch a chick flic, get out the X-box, or work her way through the Kama Sutra.

I always thought those girls wanted some arty hipster cool boyfriend who's sensitive and wears thick rimmed glasses, who likes discussing Nietzsche at Starbucks. This man wouldn't be too rich, but he'd maybe have a BA from an art school and work doing nothing all day by chilling out in his friend's shop that sells fancy sculptures made of scrap wire and modern art.

I have a feeling that Asians are the most compatable NTs for aspies relationshipwise but that's just me. I mean we are both stereotypically viewed as both weird and smart at the same time and a bit shy but then again that's just me.

I am just going to talk to her. I don't care what happens. My brain is thinking overloads of thought aghhghghghghgh.................. :P :P :P I'm going outside now.
