I've been going to this starbucks every day accross the office just to see this girl who works there.
I have free coffee in the office, but just sipping of my cup while looking at her working makes my day just a little better.
I'm not a shy guy, but can't seem to start a conversation. Wish I could talk to her while she isn't working.
don't be a creep. she definitely notices you staring and if she hasn't addressed it it's probably because she's skeeved out. I work at Starbucks and my female coworkers always point out when some dude is staring at them. unless she's clearly interested, i'd forget about it and move on.

Lol I'm not literally staring at her, that would definitely be creepy. She's just the reason why I go there instead of the office 🤣
We have some small talk but nothing that would indicate interest. I haven't flirted in about 9-10 years. I used to go there wearing a ring as I was married so she might just think I'm trying to cheat.
I just enjoy being there and knowing that she's working. Just lifts my mood even if nothing would ever happen. Just need that in my life at the moment.
Some of my relationship history is on full display over the past five years in this thread. My ex wife left me five years ago this month. I had a really rough time with it. I got through it by living a very exploratory, often destructive, and very active dating/love life for a few years. Then dated someone for a year who was not at all a good fit for me. Now I've been with the same woman for 1.5 years and I'M LITERALLY GOING TO PICK UP MY ENGAGEMENT RING FROM THE JEWELRY STORE IN FIFTEEN MINUTES TO USE TO PROPOSE TO HER THIS WEEKEND.
My ex wife just text messaged me asking me what about our relationship she could've done better. We haven't spoken, emailed, texted, NOTHING in FOUR YEARS.
WTF.
I have nothing at all to say to her and I don't want to even respond.

Yeah, I definitely did not respond. Not only is it a bad idea, but I have nothing productive to tell her. I only remember things I could've done better so that I could apply to bettering myself.
Picked up the ring and it's perfect. Pretty sure it's all going down after dinner tomorrow
Yo idk if this is necessarily the right place to ask but.... how do you guys meet like minded people to yourself? I’ve tried the whole online dating thing to absolutely no success what so ever.
I try and talk to girls at parties and bars but I find that girls in these scenes are shallow and not looking for anything. I’m not interested in just hooking up which seems to be the norm here. I’m assuming I’m doing something wrong since I’ve always believed you attract what you put out so maybe I’m sending the wrong signals.
There’s this girl I kinda like. She’s friends with my roommates gf and comes to my house every so often for parties (live in a frat house which may be important context). Ive never gotten her number stupidly and idk if asking my roommate for it is a smart move. Although there’s no more parties until the new year so maybe that’s my only option.
Idk feelin pretty lost. Maybe this is more of a vent.

Are you close with your roommate? If so, trying to get him to set up the four of you to hang out together some night is a great icebreaker. Meeting someone through a friend (like your roommate), through work, or school are some of the best ways if you're not having luck on dating apps.
The apps that worked best for me were Bumble or Hinge.
If you live in a frat, I assume you're young and in college. I hated the bar scene in college in regards to meeting someone. Work, class, or mutual friends worked best back then
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.

Try some student groups that are interesting to you. It's a pretty easy way to meet new people that are like minded. I was in ISL and ended up being an orientation leader for international students every Summer. Learned a lot. Opened my horizons. Made a lot of friends... people I've even visited overseas. Dated some too.
So maybe try some campus clubs/events like that. Film club or mafia club. Whatever.
I say ask for her number. Although December might not be the best time for students. Maybe try to set up a little post-finals celebration with your roommate and his GF..... and invite her? Just remember to wear a condom on your head.

Yeah I am close with my roommate so I think you’re definitely right I should just tell him to invite her over to hang. Thanks for that. I tried hinge over the summer in Wilmington so maybe I’ll redownload it and see what’s up here in Columbus. I appreciate the reply man.

Thanks for the reply. I graduate in a semester so joining a student group may be a little late but I’ve heard good things about meeting people through service. I’m doing some food banks next months during the holiday season and even if I don’t meet anyone I’m doing good work.
The last paragraph is great advice. I’m definitely going to do this since my roommate who knows her is also turning 21 so I’m gonna tell him to invite her. Hopefully I’ll have a good update for this thread.
Thanks again for the reply I really appreciate it.

Dan808 it's a cliche, it's what everyone told me for the longest time, but it'll happen when you least expect it. Talk to women, don't worry about rejection, and have fun meeting all the wrong girls.

I really need to figure out how to be happy by myself before I can be happy with any of these countless women I keep dating and hanging out with. I'm seeing multiple women at a time and getting a whole lot of temporary happiness, only to feel empty at the end of the day.
When I'm going on no dates and seeing no one, I feel anxious, bored, depressed, lonely, and disconnected. When I'm going on dates, I generally have a lot of fun when I'm with them, but then later feel empty, ashamed, embarrassed, aimless, and a little like an asshole. Every time things even remotely start getting close to serious, I get turned off by the whole thing and end it.
And it doesn't help when I have multiple nightmares last night involving my ex wife. There isn't much worse in this world than reliving the feelings of going through a divorce over and over again while you're trying to sleep.
It's a goddamn roller coaster that is getting old, and I'm basically just afraid that I may never be able to get close to someone again. Vent over.
I decided to go back and read through all my old posts in this thread. I was fully expecting myself to sound like an absolute tool bag throughout, but so far it's been a fun ride through memory lane.
I'm so unbelievably happy that I made it through this stage of my life and I'm now happily getting married again in the future. Depression and loneliness is a terrible thing to go through. Ironically, I'm writing this while I'm watching the series finale of Mr. Robot (it's paused). I remember getting hooked on this show originally because I felt so deeply connected and affected by Elliot's loneliness, isolation, and depression. And now the show is over and I'm on the other end of the tunnel.
Okay so things seem to be getting slightly more legitimate with the girl I met on that bar crawl a month ago. I'm not at the point of seeking monogamy, but I'm at least considering it.
I decided to find a newer pic on her Facebook to send my buddies to show her off. She looks just like Olivia Munn. So I find her on Facebook and her picture freaks me out. It's a picture of me kissing her cheek! Or so I thought.. The background is some room I've never been in. I don't own a belt that color? Holy shit! That's not a picture of me!
So, in the matter of seconds, I go from trying to decide hoe I feel about her putting me in her profile pic, to relief that it's not me, to thinking "then who is this dude?" The date of the pic was ten days ago. She claims he is just a friend and she just really likes how she looks in it, but I'm creeped out by the whole thing. I mean, I've slowed my dating around, but I'm still dating other people, so I'm not that upset about that part. I'm more concerned that he is in the profile pic and is my fucking twin. Plus, I wish she would just be honest about whoever it is.
Bottom line is I'm weirded out by the whole thing and don't know how to react to it. There is a chance its just a friend but I'm also not a complete idiot.
This girl had a boyfriend the whole time. It was him in the picture. They're married now haha
Dan808 are you a traditional four-year college student or are you graduating early? Or is time just passing faster than I'd like it too? For some reason in my head you're not yet a senior, but I'm obviously wrong.

Yeah it’s been 4 years. Crazy to think I joined this website as a senior in high school.
