Maybe this is why I'm still looking

It could be why. Sometimes smart guys have to learn how to turn that part of their mind off and learn how to just be social fun and engaging. However, not even that will help if you aren't out and about in a setting that includes many single and available women.

Its ok I was only making my list off the cuff too. I hate to sit down and think of all the freaking stuff I've done over the years. It started out as a hobby and became an obsession.

Only Compiled? Uhhh, you said:

Perl is an interpreted language.

Perl:

I forgot Perl was listed in my original post, but thank you for so handily pointing that out to me. I mean, I know Perl, but obviously this whole time I thought I was compiling everything I wrote! I don't know what I would do without you. As a professional software developer this is nothing but an embarrassment on my part.

And that's where it normally grinds to a halt - maybe I should just give up

If you give up nobody wins. I think its important to remember there is in all likelihood, someone who is just waiting for the right guy (you) to come out of his shell. I am a bit of a hopeless romantic at heart but having experienced great relationships myself its hard to believe it can't happen for others.

If the shame is that painful, I hear Seppuku isn't that bad

The most important Language you guys need to worry about is the language of LOVE

AZ_Wolf · 02-22-2010, 11:16 PM

Heh. When I first went to college I was a CS major. After one year of taking programming, I realized that I would rather brush my teeth via my rectum than do that for a living.

So for now I stick with English and Russian, and what shreds of German I haven't forgotten from middle school.

I'm fluent; just out of practice. (I'll skip the joke about helping me with my conjugation...

)

Is there a refresher course available for that?
I think I'm not conjugating my verbs properly, lately.

EDIT: Doh! That'll teach me to read every post before replying.

Well I'm not an FFA if that makes you feel better (I do love chubby cuddly guys though). And believe me, the men who love BBW seem to be in shortage in Jersey. If I didn't have a child whose roots are here in NJ, I'd gladly leave this state. The guys who do live here seem to think they're God's gift to women and refuse to commit.

NYCGabriel · 02-23-2010, 03:17 PM

An FA that finally recovered from an emotionally crippling breakup. looking? maybe

Congrats on getting over the break up. Been there, done that.

Now you should post some pictures so we can see what you look like

Oh Ditzy, it was horrible. The pain from the freaking breakup had worsened my pre-existing depression. I was so broken, my immunity had almost shut down. I spent most of the summer and fall last year cooped up indoors.

Here is me with Peanut ("I'm in yer internet hogging yer netbook")

And this one was taken 2 months ago. The odd color is due to the shitty webcam. Serves me right for paying only 20 bucks...

Heh. Yes it is. If you watched that show, then believe me, every single thing, every single cliche and stereotype is actually very very true. The city they were in, Seaside, that is how it actually is in the summer. I've never been in the off season, but in the summer, what you see on TV is what you will see if you go there. I am personally not a fan of the Guido-type, so I stay far away from those places.

I've had a break up like that before. It sounds unbelievable when you hear it but time does heal all wounds. I just took it minute by minute at first because that's all I could stand. Then I'd say Ok let's get through an hour and we'll have an hour behind us. Then after a while it was days and then months and now many years later I can't believe I loved someone like that at all. Ick. Wouldn't go back to him for anything in the world.

My webcam is crappy too, and I have you beat - I paid 14.99 LOL. Welcome to Dims =)

*evil laugh* methodically becoming unattached (i.e. divorce).....and NEVER looking again LOL. I'm not trying to date as a 32 year old single mother....as I'm sure it will suck worse than it did when I was 20-something and childless. Oh damn, that felt good to get off my chest.

I'm a 32 year old single Mom (one boy, 9) and it isn't as hard as you'd think. There are still plenty of men who are more than willing to date a Mom. Just as long as you have a great babysitter that you trust more than anyone in the world you're good to go. I think dating in my 30s is better than in my 20s because when I was in my 20s I didn't know shit about men, the world, relationships.. I take all the lessons I learned (courtesy of the many douchebags who crossed my path) and apply them now and have a much easier time of things.
Good luck with everything, though. I've never been divorced so I can't relate but obviously it must be very hard.

bigjmccoy · 03-01-2010, 05:06 PM

Very attached to my cuddly, gorgeous boyfriend. That said, just becase you ordered your food doesn't mean you can't look at the menu!!

I agree with you in that dating would be better in my thirties. And...I do have a fantastic babysitter. I think it would take a lot of pressure off too knowing that my daughter has a wonderful father already in her life, so it's not like I'm looking for a daddy for her. Hell, maybe I'll give it a try...down the road somewhere LOL
