Samurai,
Thank you for the cordial welcome!
Joe,
I look like Pam Anderson!
Just kidding. To me I'm just me. I don't think I'm chopped liver or anything, but I don't want to say I'm hot either. That would sound rather conceited, don't you think?
Jama,
1)I'm interested in "joining with you" because I read some of the posts and it seems like an interesting place to see how guys' minds work, and to discuss relevant issues with people who would know what they are talking about. I feel that it would be better in an online forum like this, with people I would never meet, rather than with people I actually know. I'd be afraid they would think I'd gone off the deep end or something.
2) There are a few girls I get along with, but most of the ones I have socialized with in the past never seemed interested in being my friends. I think I tried a little too hard to be accepted and that might have scared them off. In school I was the "eccentric", who grew up a lot more slowly than other girls did. They were into boys and hairspray, and I was into sci-fi and other intellectual things, without worrying too much about what guys thought or whether or not I was wearing the latest fashion. I was slow to mature, so the other girls thought I was a loser, and they shunned me. I have always wanted female friends who I could do "girly things" with, but I get nervous around other females because I expect them to tear me apart and judge me harshly like they did in high school. Around guys, I feel more comfortable, because they are far less judgmental. But I still hope to find a female "bosom buddy" one day.
Sorry if that was a little long-winded.
3) Am I looking to fish? No. That's actually a funny question...if you were a woman, would you trust a guy who called himself "Don Juan?"
I'm not interested in your "affection" as you call it, just friendliness. I kind of consider myself "one of the guys", even though I'm just as feminine as the next girl. I guess I like how guys are a lot more honest and candid than most women. Being a very frank person myself, I appreciate that kind of honesty in people. Besides, guys seem to be more interested in intellectual things than most of the girls I've met.
Dee-Zy,
I don't really want to socialize, but I am hoping to learn a few things and perhaps share some of my own knowledge as well. I probably won't be posting very often, and I promise not to annoy anyone here. And if someone brings up a topic on which I could contribute a worthy response...well, why shouldn't I?
Ever onward,
I'll try not to say anything offensive. Were those kisses for me, or are they just part of your signature?
Lord_Pancake,
Thank you for your frankness!
