Romance

I would say he sounds bi, but claiming to be various things that you are not on facebook is kind of a thing... is there anything in RL that would suggest he likes men?

Here's what you say:

"Hey, I noticed your Facebook says you're into guys. Is that an old joke? Because if it's not, I'm okay with it. Very okay."

I don't know. I mean, I kind of knew OF him in my old high school. I was one of the outskirts of the group he was the center of.

I was too intimidated to talk to him. He's tall and incredibly gorgeous. I was short, fat, and awkward.

But then that seems like I was checking it. and what if he's not and he figures out ~I~ like guys.

You could just ask him whether hes joking or not because you are seriously confused about it?

Mmmm.

I do like short people, and I like being a bit of one myself. :3 But yeah, I hate being fat. I mean, chubby guys can look cute, and I definitely have a thing for chubby girls, but...I just want to be a tiny adorable dude. >_<

He's probably not as tall as me anymore, lol. I have grown and thinned out a lot (I'm over six feet). But he's thin without being frail looking. His skin is smooth and perfectly the same color all over. He's got warm, kind brown eyes only a shade darker than his skin and black hair that (right now) is long and adorably shaggy. He is, in a word, yumm.

I don't care for the word "Bishie" applied to real people as they usually tend to fall short of the spirit of the word. However, he surpasses it.

So...how to deal with guys hitting on your girlfriend without looking like an arse. Any ideas?

I would say to laugh about it. It shows that you aren't threatened by them.

Maniacal laugh and bring her in for blatant makeouts?

Have this on your phone. Show it to them among other funny pics. Laugh at it the most.

Talked to my girl until 6am. Lacking sleep but feeling so much better for getting the chance to talk properly.

Going to talk to my girl tonight. It should be fun. Get to see her beautiful eyes again.

Edit: Looks like I won't be talking to Indi tonight.

Well these all are great ideas :P thanks

So, I've mentioned before about a girl at work that seemed to be coming on to me, but I pegged her as a high school Sophomore or Junior?

I've had some good conversations with her, and I brought up school, so I now know she's a college underclassman(getting a General Studies associate's before going to a real school for a bachelor's), she lives near to me, and she wants to be a screenwriter like me. We're now Facebook friends.

And now that we're Facebook friends, I know she's currently in a relationship.

I hate it when that happens.

And it happened to me a lot this year. D:<

She's been dating the guy for as long as I've been working there, and she's only been working there a few months.

Dang, that was the first time I'd been sure on any level that I was being flirted with, even if it was just a gut feeling, which I never completely trust.

Yeah, telling flirting from friendly interest is quite difficult. >:/

Usually my gut feeling in that area is "maybe, maybe not". Which I've learned rationally means "not".

This time my gut feeling was "yes, definitely", so my rational thought was "could go either way".

Ah well, now you have more data for future scenarios. It'll refine your ability to distinguish flirting.

The problem with learning to recognize flirting is that nobody ever flirts with me.

Then you must flirt with people. You'll either get polite friendly responses, or flirty responses.

Obtain that data!

But then I really don't know how to flirt, or at least how to flirt without being so subtle it's unmistakable.

One time a girl I was chatting with online did tell me "stop flirting, my boyfriend's right beside me", but I hadn't thought I was flirting.

That's one of the great annoyances of flirting. Different people define it differently, and see different flirting/non flirting boundaries.

The trick is to figure out the subtle hints that they've crossed their own boundary.

By the way chills, the photo worked

Hells yeah!

Gotta let them know about your capacity to be psycho, all while smiling and maintaining the image of a jovial, carefree guy.
