Bottom line Band is cool for some people and not for others, Viper and Adone stop b*tching like two old ladies. To the quiet guy don't give a f*ck and start being more social and get practice.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
Well, that's your opinion about it, but overall, "cool" implies that YOU like something, in other words, some people might think something is cool, but other people might not think that thing is cool, it's not something that's percieved by something that people generally like and if it is, well, screw being cool, I'm good with being an individual and I'm not going to do something I don't like, just to be perceived as cool by other people.Originally posted by Adone
Saying "It's cool" implies that it's something considered "OK" by most people (since something's "coolness" is given by how many people like it). You should have said "In my opinion, it's not bad". I don't want to be anal about this (although I'm actually being), but I hate when someone thinks he's right although he's obviously not.
In what way was I an asshòle in my first post?
And flabbergasped has just made a stupid post, which does nothing to contribute to the topic, big surprise? Not really. You guys just have to learn to ACCEPT when you're wrong. You can't possibly be right, because if you're definition of cool, is what's generally considered cool by the majority, you've been thinking incorrectly. If that was the definition of cool, people would use the word much differently.Originally posted by Flabbergasped?
Viper has invaded this thread.
Again.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

This is pathetic.
Another 'Viper vs. The anti-vipers' thread. Why can't you guys just give it a break? (Remember that old quote? 'Discussion forum arguments are like the special olympics; win or lose, in the end you're all retards.' I apologise to all the retards out there). The whole second page of this thread is about 'band is cool/gay'. Worst of all, this isn't the first time this topic has appeared. Just leave it.
Would a real Don Juan care about what somebody types on a message board? Didn't think so.
