| Of course they can, look at Napoleon Dynamite and how things worked out for his brother.
*crickets chrip* Anyway, I'm not stupid, I know what could go wrong and I know that in order for it to be serious it would take dedication. The problem is that I'm more willing than most people are as far as dedication goes, but it's always for a girl who wants me to NOT like her. And personal relationships are MUCH more risky than online ones. Actually, Valcion, you only said once that I was 'no where near ready,' and I don't see what I'd be ready for when I'm not even IN a relationship. I would MUCH rather be in a relationship with a girl I know personally, but the truth of the matter is that no one is willing to even give me a chance. It doesn't matter how much I like them or what I'm willing to do, if they don't like me back, it's all for naught. I feel like I should stop liking girls for who they are and just wait until one likes me for who I am, THEN find what I like about her. But that's just stupid. But I also cannot go through this same process over and over again. It's not an issue of me having high standards, it's an issue of the girls at my college having high standards. But the problem is that every girl I've ever liked wasn;t what I thought 'my type' was and didn't match 'my standards.' So I've concluded that my standards need to be very minimal. Right now, I only have one standard for a girl to pursue, and that's that they like me for who I am. After that, I can move up the list. The problems I've had are that I have NO dating experience at all, even though I'm 19, and I know that in and of itself is a bit strange. I've only ever truly liked 3 girls in my life thus far, and each one I liked even more than the last. This 3rd one made me feel and think things no other person ever has. Even though she's done some stupid things to me (as I have to her) I know she didn't mean to hurt me, and I love her for who she is, not how she acts toward me. I know she's an amazing person, and for some reason, even though I know she doesn't like me that much even as a friend, I still like her and I somehow know n my gut that she's worth the pain I've been through, and she's worth more of it. But I don't really see us in a relationship anytime in the near future. Especially since one of her lofty standards for dating is that she will never date a boy until she somehow KNOWS she could marry him. Personally, I believe she's even less mature in the ways of dating than I am. I personally don't think she's ever truly liked someone and started falling in love with someone, so it's easy for her to dismiss it all. I want to enter a relationship and be serious, but I just can't see how I could do that with someone I've never met. I can't even do it with people I HAVE met. |

| Obvously.
Just for fun may not have been the best phrase. Just so I know what the f5ck dating is like AT ALL may be better. |

| Yea, ask her what her interests her and that sort of stuff.
When you know each other better, deeper conversations become easier. |

| Um, I live in New York, thank you very much, and everyone's not insane here.
Believe me, I want to meet a girl and becomes friends with her and then move into dating much more than date someone online. But the truth of the matter is that that approach has NEVER worked, ever, and there's nothing I can do about it, because it's never ME, it's THEM. I don't know what girls I befriend don't like about me, they just don't like me. I mean, the girl I like right now... We both care about each other, we're both always trying to do what's best for the other and what will make the other happy, we'll do silly random things now and again that are nice for each other, and we even find each other good-looking. But...she doesn't like me, not even much as a friend, much less someone she could date. And her standards are so high (though I think this is more social immaturity) that she refuses to even give a boy a chance in a relationship unless she KNOWS she could get married to them. See, to me, dating is a means of getting to marriage, but to her, it's more like...marriage is a means to date someone. And that's just sort of silly, I think. People don't start dating because they know they'll get married. It doesn't work so well, becaus euntil they're in relationship, they DON'T know if it'll work. But no matter what I do or say or how loyal or how loving or what I'm willing to do... None of it matters at all if she simply doesn't like me and doesn't see the good in me that other people do. And that's just depressing, knowing that no matter WHAT qualities I have or what I'm willing to do, if the girl I'm willing to give it to isn't even willing to give it a chance, it's all worth shit. But that's how life is, I guess. I'm just sick of waiting. Everyone tells me "you'll know" when you find that "someone" and you should always take the opportunity, but each time, I feel even more strongly about it, more willing, more open-minded, more loving, and each time, it NEVER works out, I'm never even given a chance, and it goes ot crap. I feel like if I met someone online, maybe they'd get to know me for who I am, not how I can act in person--very shy and quiet. I don't know. I'm just damn sick of hoping and wishing and loving and being ready to jump off a cliff for someone, when they'd rather I NOT feel that way about them and they refuse to even picture the possibility. It makes me feel like there's something innately wrong with me--something so wrong, people can't even look past it to see good in me. It's a bit of a mess. |

Here's a pic of me back in February at my friend's college.

| Even on the internet, eh? That's too bad.
Getting to know girls 1 on 1 isn't always the best approach, unless it's the one they're seeking with you. Anyway, you DO realize when I said New York, I meant the STATE, right? Not the city. The college I go to is a Christian Liberal Arts college, and, as expected, most of the girls here are so conservative that dating is pretty much a bad thing to them, and yet, they all want husbands before they leave. Don't ask me how that works. They somehow expect Mr. Perfect to fall into their lap and for everything to work out peachy keen, I guess. Life isn't like that most of the time. |

| Um...if you're Catholic, you might want to stay away from my college.
I'm not that big into religious details, but I think that this place isn't so keen on Catholics. I'm going to a place called Houghton College, to answer your question. Anyway, it's so annoying, because the girls who have qualities I like are also too conservative to give me a chance, and the girls who might possibly give me a chance don't have qualities I particularly like.  |

| Um...Well, that sucks.
But money has nothing to do with it. I'm not gonna be giving money to someone I've never even met. And I still really like this one girl who rejected me, but because she rejected me, now I'm getting a crush on someone else. GRR. |

| Some people say I look like Neo from the Matrix. Damn, can't remember the actor's name. Too lazy.
Also, I know I need to shave. Thng is, I look kind of baby-faced when my face is bare, but then I look kind of weird if I grow it out. I don't shave every day, and I don't have a very good razor (I iz a college student ) so even when I do, it's never completely clean.
You really think I look good...? I've only had three girls in my entire life tell me I looked good, and all three instances happened a month ago during the same week. One of them was a 15 year-old artist in Cali whose an online friend of mine. The other was a random flute-player--she said it to my friend after I left the room. And the third was...well, the girl I like right now...  ;
But she doesn't like me. Looks aren't everything, don't you see? Even IF girls think I look good, if they don't like ME, it doesn't matter. ;
I guess I'm just not...charming. I have infinite love to give, I'm willing to do so many things most guys are too lazy to do, but it seems no amount of love matters if I'm simply not...charming, I guess. Being checked out and actually being appreciated and LIKED are different things.
I talk to girls, and whether they think I'm good-looking or not, the girls around here are very...well, stuck-up as far as dating goes, for the most part. They have high standards, they're naive to the reality that no man is perfect, and I doubt most of them have ever started to fall in love (Lord knows they don't want to), so of course they don't understand what it's like. Believe it or not, I've never had a girlfriend, never been in a relationship... And there's no girl I know who's interested in giving me a chance, either. I've certainly reached out to girls, but I've not had girls reach out to ME, you see. But thanks for the compliment. I'm very open, I'm very transparent...and I guess most girls don't like that. They see my flaws easier that way, and my flaws draw attention away from my good qualities--unlike me, most people can't look past flaws so easily, I guess. ;
Sion, you have a better looking body than I do, that's for sure! XD Skydude, you have dirty hands.
--- Here's a pic of the girl I like: she's the one on the left. 
Here's my best friend, DK. 
Isn't HE the attractive one? LOL. And yes, that is supposed to be blatantly suggestive. And yes, he needs a haircut and a shave. But in his high school, there wa s adress code, and so he's making up for it by having hair he couldn't have in high school. Also, he doesn't want a girlfriend, so he doesn't need to worry about how he looks, anyway. LOL. Yes, completely random. If you think that picture of DK is scarring, I could certaily change your mind with other pics I have of him that are far worse.

Can't believe I forgot. I don't know--do you agree? Anyway, I looked at some of your earlier pics, Sion. Dude, you look, like...tough. Damn. |

| Well, obviously.
But he sure as hell LOOKS tough compaed to most people I know. I have dressed up like Neo one time. Actually, it was more like a sleazy gangster, but it was pretty much Neo, too. I still have the DVD for that silly high school movie... |

| Um...I may have mentioned this already, but...
I like hair for some reason. Black hair and dark red the most. Um... I always seem to like Asian girls a lot, for some reason. Maybe that's partially because until college, I never really ever SAW any. But then there's the Asian girls that are like sticks. No thanks. |

| Oh, it DOES work out sometimes.
I mean, when it works out well, the only difference is how you met. I've met some people in pretty odd circumstances. It's not how you meet, it's where it goes from there. |

| While it's true that I only live once, I don't think it's intelligent (for me) to go and 'party it hard' and all that.
I will just have to keep waiting longer for true love, and I'm not going to settle for anything else. And I know true love exists because I've felt it toward others--I just need to find someone who will feel it toward me. |

| SKydude, I seem to be in your same position.
I would say that...don't expect or really hope for anything to happen, but don't rule out the possibility. And don't rule out the possibility that someone else will come. I'm head over heels for a friend who has no interest in me, and as a result, I now have crushes on a couple of other girls PLUS I'm smitten entirely by this one. Which for me, is unhealthy, I think. But I'm just not paying attention to those feelings, because if they're meant to come out, they will. Anyway... OK, so... I met an incoming freshman to our college and me and some friends led her and some other incoming freshmen around and had a good time. For some reason, throughout the evening, I felt connected to her in a strange way. Afterwards, as we were all heading back up to campus, she was a bit lost on where to go to get to the dorm she was staying in, so I offered to walk her up. When we got there, and said our good-byes, she reached out and hugged--not some over dramatic hug, but, still, a hug. It caught me by surprise, because people around here don't seem to feel comfortable with hugging someone they know fairly well, let alone someone they just met. I dunno, she's Canadian, so... Do Canadians just like to hug people more, did it mean anything, or is she simply someone who likes hugs? I'm kind of afraid of starting to like this girl, too, since I'm not even over the other girl I like. Until I find a girl who likes ME for who I am as I like girls for who they are, and I can feel confident that things are heading toward a relationship, I feel like I'll never be able to get over the girl I like right now. And which do you think will be the more popular console in this coming race: Revolution, PS3, or XBox360? |

| I never said I was never going to date if I didn't know it was 'perfect.'
What I mean is that I'm not going to marry someone unless I actually LOVE them, and they love me. I've never been in a relationship yet, and I already understand just how valuable it is to have someone who truly loves you for who you are, because I've felt that way toward people who want nothing of it. |

| Gamecube.
XBox. Game Boy Play Station. Nintendo. iPod. Google. Napster. All pretty damn goofy names, if you ask me, but they've grown on us. I'm not going to defend the 'hipness' of the name, because Revolution was better, but now, Nintendo has people talking, they've got attention, they've got press, and they've got a silly name that, if the Revolution succeeds, is gonna make SUCH a cool name. I mean, really, iPod? How weird is that? No, it's not silly and doesn't invoke pee jokes, but it sure is weird. I mean, if the Wii does become popular, isn't that just gonna be so fun to shout about and be amused by? Also, Nintendo wants this to be a fun console, and I think a name like that pretty much shouts out fun. " First thing *I* thought when I first saw the name and logo: Korean MP3 player. The thing people have to remember is, Nintendo's trying really hard to change, and if you've followed all the craziness surrounding this thing, a goofy-sounding name shouldn't be that shocking, especially following the initial controller reveal. Now they're saving the best for last: the games." - Ray Barnholt of 1Up.com At least this name is something worth TALKING about. Just because you're 'hip' doesn't mean you're worth talking about. Notice how the cool guys at school think they're cool, but in the end, hardly anyone but the shallow people relaly like them for their 'coolness.' It's not following this formula: generic word about games + geometric shape + number And thank God for that. This is a name worth conversing about. Notice how we actually ARE. Did anyone rant on and give the Playstation 3 attention when tha tname was 'announced?' Of course not. 
Free marketing, baby, ust before E3. I don't think it's a coincidence. And if Nintendo blows our pants off with this thing, that'll just make the silly name all the better. That's IF they blow us away. And E3 is where they're gonna have to do it, if they do. |

| "The larger picture of this is of course that Nintendo wants what Apple has - a unique position in its industry, so that the actions of competitors almost don't matter, because the brand Apple has transcended the old debate of "Mac versus PC". Apple simply is."
Good point. They are imitating a lot of Apple strategies. |

| Not gonna make a single pee-joke?
That takes a lot of balls, Sir. And no, people around here are very uncomfortable hugging people of the opposite sex--at least, as far as girls I know. I mean, this girl's from Canada, so who knows, maybe she does just like hugging, I don't know. if that's the case, that's awesome, because I love hugging, I just can only do it comfortable to guys because I'm always afraid of creepin' them out. But a GIRL hugging ME without me making a gesture at all? For me and my 19 year-old pathetic self, that's unprecedented.
But it may just be nothing, in which case, she's still and awesome person I look forward to being friends with. And you can bet I'll be letting her play with my Wii come fall. (OK, now, that's the first one I've done all day, and since Grey's against it, someone has to take a stand. In all honesty, I actually really love the name already, if only because it's just so damn FUN.) |
