  Windrider,

  I miss you so much as well! My arms ache for you! You have spoiled me with several days of you in my arms, and now I must endure two weeks without my love beside me! Ah, the agony...

  Nice guys left in the cold

  by Elsewhere in

  butalbee started the thread "do looks really matter?

  i started wondering about the "nice" guys (such as myself).... it's been my experience that women tend not to go for the "nice" guy who has a lot to offer - big heart, kind, good income, etc.

  they seem far more likely to go for the aggressive "jerk" or "rebel" who treats them like dirt.. why is that?.

  Elsewhere, I think you are over generalizing, but there is some truth to what you say: the jerks get the chicks.

  This is largely because "bad boys" are exciting...they live on the edge, they party hard, they do some crime, life with them is exciting...until the reality sets in that the bad boy is a jerk and treats his woman like dirt, that worrying about bills being paid and the police calling eventually are no fun. I base this observation on comments from relatives who date jerks.

  Nice guys are responsible enough not to live on the edge, so they appear to be vanilla by comparison. But there is another side: a lot of nice guys are clueless about when a woman is interested in them. Myself included. Yes, I consider myself to be a nice guy, though my ex-wife may be of another opinion.

  As one comedian said, "Ladies, guys DO NOT get the hint!" It is true. I rarely clue in when a woman is interested in me. I prefer she beat me over the head with "I want you, you idiot!"

  I suspect a lady is interested, but then I am too shy to find out if she is. I usually find out too late, when it is too late to ask her out, or after I have broken her heart.

  So guys, just ask the lady out. The worst she will say is no.

  I had little to no clue that Windrider was interested in me....until I finally got the guts to ask her for a relationship. I am so glad I did! And we chuckle about it because she put out the vibes long before I asked her. I just didn't clue in.

  Based on the few times I have found a lady to be interested in me, here are some indicators given to me in my life from married and unmarried women that they were interested in me.

  She says, "I wish we were married to eachother." (I clued in on that one!)

  Your wife tells you that a woman wants to bed you. If your wife is not jealous, then this is a VERY strong indicator that the lady really wants to bed you! (I clued in, but was not quite sure.)

  She goes to your wife's place of work and tells her that she does NOT want to bed you, but knows that everyone thinks she does just because she kept playing with your knee and making suggestive comments for a couple of hours. (I clued in, but was not sure because this is normal behavior where I was raised.)

  She asks for your phone number. (I did not clue in.)

  She asks to correspond with you. (I did not clue in.)

  Relatives/friends tease you about not clueing in when a lady was obviously interested in you.

  She loves standing next to you, and both of you talk for two hours and it seems like two minutes. (Yep, I clued in.)

  She refuses to teach you Portuguese, except for the phrases, "You are my friend." and "I love you.", but refuses to explain why. (Clued in.)

  She is completely heartbroken when you let her know that you will not have sex with anyone except with your wife. (Clued in/did not clue in)

  She looks at you and touches you in "that way". (Did clue in)

  She sends you really strange apologies, for no apparent reason. (Did not clue in/clued in)

  You meet her at the library, and in the first conversation she has with you, in the first five minutes she lets you know that she has kids but no custody, lives alone, and has no boyfriend...and the conversation started around how to send an email. Yeah, I clued in!!

  OK, so now you all know I am clueless about women. A weak argument in my defense is that in my hometown, men and women were often very affectionate, and friends would often kiss eachother. Also, due to my childhood, I have an unusually good rappore with women, and so the indicators that would tell a guy that "she is interested", are often just normal conversation with me. Many guys have asked me how come I can talk so easily with women. (The secret is: treat them like people.)

  I feel safe in telling you all that I am good at conversing with women, and lousy at picking them up because now I have snagged WindRider! So I no longer have to worry about the dating scene.

  glwarrior,

  Read http://www.askmen.com/ regularly. It has many good tips on relationships.

  WindRider's idea is a good one...go to places where people are that do things you are interested in. Then just get involved in the common interest, without pressure to date.

  Then, when you are comfortable, just ask to take her for coffee, a meal, etc. A coffee or lunch is low pressure.

  You are defeating your own purpose in not going to dance clubs. Once at the club, pick a lady you want to dance with and ask her for a dance. If she says no, just pick another one and keep trying. The fact that you asked for a dance is flattering to a woman, even if she refuses. And a dance is just a dance. And if you like her, ask her to dance again.

  I am extremely shy. When I was 16, I had to attend my brother's wedding, and had to dance because I was family. My sister taught me the basics, and she was my dance partner for the "family" dance. After that, they could not stop me. I literally asked every unmarried woman there to dance with me that night. Only one refused. She claimed she did not like to dance. Since she never danced all night, I guess she was telling the truth.

  Dancing is a low pressure situation where you do not need any or much conversation. And even if it doesn't lead to anything, at least you get a close up look at a beautiful woman wiggling in front of you for a few minutes.

  Meeting women in grocery stores is a good idea, I have a friend who met his wife that way. Women don't mind if a guy starts a conversation with "Do you know where I can find a...". A surprising number of them look at me after the conversation with a "I thought you were going to ask me out" look.

  And gilwarrior, you never know if a woman is interested in you. I can rarely tell when they are interested in me, had have taken much ribbing from relatives because of not seeing that "she is obviously interested". I guess I am just a "goober" that way.

  an earlier discussion has been highlighting the differences between da'ing and df'ing.

  xena said:i am sorry qadreena but i have never in the 20 some odd years i have been a jw ever heard of an unbaptised publisher being d/aed...marked as bad association yes..but d/a...no...but i guess stranger things can happen.... well that brought it all back.. actually xena the exact same thing happened to my brother in the early 80's.

  he was only 14. he'd carried on associating with a friend of his who'd been disfellowshipped.

  know I'm not the most gifted poster but this was the worst. It's taken me almost three hours to make this post, I'm not sure what the point of it all is but I'm glad I've done it.

  You did great. And I am glad to know that I am not the only one who needs three hours to make a post.

  I know JWs used to shun bible studies who stopped. This eventually made the Dubs look like such jerks that the Society changed the rules.

  "We don't believe that innocent members and congregations should be held accountable for the deviant behaviour of individual acts committed 20 or 30 years ago."

  Reminds me of the Dubs...the Org sets up a system where abuse happens, then claims it was the "individuals" who acts wrong, not the Org itself.

  what is the most romantic/sexiest thing you've ever done?.

  for me, one of the most daring things i've ever done was to pick up my boyfriend at the bus station wearing only my raincoat and high heels.......when we got in the car i gave him a peek at what was under the coat.

  we didnt make it any farther than a nearby dimly lit parking lot without laying down the seats and steaming the windows.. ok; who's next?.
