I come from a family that says the same things I've heard in this thread so far: get a hobby, get buff, change your behavior, bootstraps, bootstraps. And definitely don't talk to a shrink.

In a way, I agree with them. Just because you have a degree means nothing, a good friend or family member can listen just as well if they are inclined. But I'm really very private with these issues, which is why I prefer forums such as this.

You may be right in your own pursuits and fancy, however, since your brain is a organ and tissue, it can get sick just like any other part of your body... Some psychological professionals are trained to assist you come to an civilized conclusion satisfactory to your psyche. Moreover, a psychiatrist who is a medical doctor can prescribe medications that can heal the illness that your genetics in your brain suffers.

It is cool to "stand on your own 2 feet" and "lift yourself up by your own bootstraps". However, it is more humane to yourself as well as everyone else when we live in a civilized society when you can accept the fact that you need help...

I disagree that I've dumped on anyone, though...The discussion actually turns from substance to content and categorization and appropriateness.

IMHO, you should have posted in the "Dating and Relationships". Yes, I know, big whoopdee doo... But, you are saying you want to learn something from each other... Well, I am quite learned and I have several degrees. But, what I have most, is life experience from very bad storms in my life... So, I know it hurts.

How come you are so very hot and bothered by one woman?

AlexMack 08-04-2007 01:44 AM

Joe...a little advice that can help.

Women don't 'like' assholes. We like self-confidence. That's why we wind up with total pricks. Nice guys finish last because they're so concerned with how we are, are we okay, what are we feeling? Self-confidence, bro. That's what you need.

My other advice-you need atypical places to look for chicks. My advice are martial arts classes. Not because you're asian. Because they develop self-confidence, so as you're learning to be more assertive, chicks in those classes will notice that and it will come out. Take from it from an ex-martial artist. I hate saying that but it doesn't look like I'll get back to practicing anytime soon. Single guy, single girl. A martial arts class is a great way to meet people. It really is. Some of my best friends came from there. Some of my ex-boyfriends came from there!

Self-confidence my man. We don't want an asshole, we want a self-confident nice guy.

You might have a little beta boy that you pal around with and tell all your problems to, but he secretly wants you in bed and you secretly know that.

I am not homosexual and some of my best friends are guys...and they don't want to secretly "bed" me as you put it...just b/c this might be your story does not mean all guys are like that...if you are in your 30's you need to grow up and learn to deal with life....there are much worse things going on then you not having a good date

IMHO it's bullshit, yeah there are a lot of people that fit into either an A or B type personality, but i've known way more that show traits of both or have a lot of gray areas.

James 08-04-2007 04:09 PM

Well . . that might not be true lol. How would you know for sure?

If you are conventionally attractive there is probably some, potentially sublimated, sexual attraction there . . .

I dropped the guy off, and then Kelly said that she needed to go inside to use the bathroom.

After waiting for a while, I went in to check up and Kelly was in the bathroom having loud sex with this guy.

I was humiliated and drove home crying. The next day Kelly called up and was acting all innocent. When I said I didn't want to talk to her, she said that I was just a "Wierd stalker Jewish asshole" and she hated me.

I've just had a very bad couple of years. I hate to go on and on, but it all started last summer when I lost my job at Adbrite. My boss, Pud Kaplan, lost the position as CEO. On his way being escorted out of the building, he yelled at me and called me a fruitcake.

A few weeks later, I was canned. I tried to go out at night to make myself feel better. I ended up with this girl I'll call 'Scamp.' One night we were going at it and she was making sounds and I said, 'are you dying?' and she suddenly freaked out and left.

I guess I'm just very depressed. What can I do to feel better? And is there anyone in Washington DC that wants to hook up tonight

Hahahahhahahahahahaha:D

I like old women, they're easy to talk to, no bullshit likeable people.

I can't believe I fell in love with that ho.

Wow. Stereotype much? Surely your logic skills aren't so faulty that you'd actually believe that all American wives are substandard to their Asian counterparts?

So your ONE DATE with Kelly was a bust. Can you really say you fell in love with her? That's an awfully strong feeling (love) for someone who doesn't even like women. Obviously, Kelly didn't feel the same way about you. (Or, who knows, maybe she did five years ago, but it's taken you so long to muster up the courage to ask her out that she just couldn't see it happening.)

I agree that you should seek some professional help. It sounds like you've had your heart broken (maybe several times), and you're not sure how to mend it. While I'd be willing to bet everyone here has experience with being let-down in love, you're bound to find more helpful advice from someone who has counseled others in your situation.

I disagree. I really think Joe's writing it. In fact... this guy sounds remarkable like a guy I went to grad school with.... whose name, of course, was Joe!

I don't have anything to hide... and I just wanted to 'chat' so why shouldn't I 'chat' on a site that is called 'Greekchat.'

Warning bell going off here :mad:

According to Wrecking Crew above, that isn't a Sigma Nu number.:confused:

Maybe this will shock you, but there's just a little bit of casual sex going on in fraternities and sororities, and that's putting it mildly. The prudishness is somewhat amusing. You think that urges like that stop when you get out of college? Heck, you probably think 27 years old is over the hill.

This smacks way too loudly of the occipitofrontal thread saying we were too out there , talked about sex, being a "lush" :rolleyes: and enjoyed Nascar too much. The age mention again is curious.

Not all men are misogynists. But I suspect you might be showing tendencies of one.

I hope you don't think I'm too out there, I just wanted to have an HONEST discussion about how I REALLY feel. I want you to all come back from this thread with the feeling that you interacted with someone online who wasn't pulling any punches or editing himself.

Thanks for listening.

Yet you post that you were a former Sigma Nu, post what looks like a phone number and slam every good piece of advice you've gotten. Are you done using us yet?:confused:

JosephWang 08-06-2007 06:08 PM

Wow, for so many oppossed to the thread itself, there's no shortage of people chiming in to make fun of me. Whatever, it's all good, I'm just happy that I'm honest above all.

I don't need to post here, anymore... while there are some good posters, most are just here to pile on. Could've been a long productive conversation, because once everyone just loosens up about their own prejudices, you really learn something interesting.

And to the guy that pm'ed me, no, no numbers, thanks. I did buy a damn brick though. I hope it's preserved well.

Over and out.

SydneyK 08-06-2007 08:14 PM

Yeah, when two people both think it's Sirikwan and "Joe's" only reply is, "Over and out," well... I think we have a winner (or, in this case, two). Good sleuthing, kathykd and icelandelf!

Fine. I am calling BS on your claim to be a Sigma Nu then.

Feel free to create another account where you do not claim to be something that you're not.

I don't recall sirikwan's writing to be as intelligible as this guy's...unless he's taken grammar and punctuation lessons during the past few weeks.

This is true.

PrettyBoy 08-08-2007 09:13 PM

Hey Joseph, here's my two cents man. I read your post earlier but I didn't have time to respond to it. Dude, why would you cry over a hoe? I understand you were upset, but you gotta let a hoe be a hoe. You should be glad you saw this, now you know she wasn't for you. When she called why did you even pick up the phone? If you have a cell phone you should have recognized who it was. I would have let the skank go to v-mail. Also, about your comment about American women making bad wives. You said you want a submissive Asian wife. Nothing wrong with that, if that's your preference, but women are going to be women no matter where they're from. As far as you talking about the hoes you run into is concerned, that's also all across the board. Hoes are everywhere dude. They're in Asia, Europe, North and South America. Hell, if there was life on Mars, it would have its share hoes too. Hoes are like Bay Bays kids, they don't die they multiply. You seem like a nice guy and I hope you find the right woman. One more last thing. Someone made a comment about nice guys finishing last. That's not true man. Stay the man you are. See, women that like @$$holes are insecure with themselves. Now think about it. Would you buy a used car with high mileage and no warranty? I'm sure you wouldn't. It's the same thing with trifling @$$ women that deal with bad boys. The bad boys put a lot of miles on these stupid women and use up the warranty too. Once the warranty is used up then they want a nice guy. Now he has to deal with all the insecurities this silly no good joker put on her, so why would you want a no good used up woman like that? I wouldn't. Well anyway, take it slow, and don't cry over a slut, it's not worth it. In fact if I were you I wouldn't give a squirt of piss for a slut. Remember what I said, ya gotta let a hoe be a hoe. Sorry for the book, stay cool man, and be yourself. Some decent woman will appreciate you.

Btw. Bad boys ARE NOT Alpha males. They're spineless no good jelly back pricks who have no clue how to respect or treat a lady, so don't let anyone tell you differently.:);)
