Yup, in the state.


As for the girl problems, been through sort of a similiar situation like what you went through in the past, only difference was that I was seeing her, if you know what I mean, and I think that you do. I can't say that we were dating. It was more of a friends with benefits thing. Anyway, long story short, she got knocked up and married some other guy in New York last I heard.

So I feel your pain. But one thing I've learned from dating (and which may seem sort of shallow) is if you go in with the attitude of 'what do you have to offer me?' You'll get a lot more positive responses rather than chasing your own tail trying to impress someone that really doesn't deserve your attention in the first place.



So remember, it's Bob's Donuts on Polk St. above the cross street of California St.
Bob's on Polk St. Yoink! Filed.

Oh, and the "what do you have to offer me?" approach has been my mantra for the last few months and especially with this new girl I'm talking to (a friend of friends). I'll suddenly act disinterested in conversation and she'll try harder. It's really, really neat. On a side note, this one may be a slamdunk anyway since we've both been interested in each other for a while and just never said anything. Word got through the grapevine from her to me, though, so now I'm going in for the kill. I'm just toying around with her for now, though. Kinda like a cat before it eats a mouse.

Thanks for the update, Sicks, I was curious how you'd resolved that--sounds like you got the better end of the deal.

Oh, and I hope the girl you're seeing now doesn't ever read those last two sentences you wrote there, because they sound rather heartless and cavalier for a guy who's supposedly just learned better. (Not to mention you throw Jakester a softball about "eating" and a synonym for "cat." )

Yeah, I guess that's a bit more harsh than I was going for but I guess I know too much at this point, anyway, so I really am in the driver's seat. In that respect, the analogy is correct. I'm trying to play it smooth, though.

"You've gotta wait till the seed grows into a plant. Then you've gotta fuck the plant. "

So that was me tonight. Was just playing some darts when I struck up a conversation with some other people who were playing next to me. Turns out the woman I ended up playing against (who I really dug) is married (which I knew within 10 minutes by getting a clear view of her left hand and the FAT diamond on it) but I spent the night talking to her and her friend (who is single but I'm not really into for now... hey, you never know) and gave the married one my business card with cell phone number to pass off to her single friends including the one I met tonight. What could it hurt, eh?

Oh, and they claimed I looked like Bachelor Bob. I still don't see it.

And then you've gotta hope the plant seed wasn't for a Venus Fly Trap!!

I am singularly amused by Sicks' love life.

I feel so good right now. Sick is dating, and that skank is old news!! I could see the Bachelor Bob similarity- it's the nose. Anyways... Glad things are going well for you. :hugs:

As for coffee, I've never heard of Tim Horton's. Around here, it's Dunkin' Donuts. They've been getting stomped on by Krispy Kreme since they came here about 7 (?) years ago. But as for what this topic is actually about- coffee may have saved my life, then, when I was pounding back 20+ shots a night, and drinking for 12 hours a day. Yay for coffee, and yay for no cirrhosis of the liver!!!

Amused because I'm not getting any and I'm still getting more than you? I'd be pissed, man!

Thanks, although I think it's a bit harsh to call her a skank. Desperate to get married? Yeah, that's a good label. Although I think Bad Choice Betty is catchier.

If you order the Boston Creme, that's never a bad choice.

Yummmmmmm.
