Be careful though. Sometimes the person in question is more happy with "withdraw" than with anything else.

"Be excellent in her presence" is sometimes relative.

I've seen guys go up to women and think that they were "excellent" and then "withdraw", only to hear the women afterwards be grateful that those guys left.

A woman being cordial doesn't necessarily mean she's into you.
(But how much easier life would be if it were true. )

True, but those type of guys wouldn't get it anyways.

There's a distinct line between showing yourself in a positive light & showing off.

My bad; I wrote that reply out after reading the first post.

Besides, someone mentioned going Celt and getting you pumped, figured I'd contribute. That, and I wanted to be able to say "Carpe Canus!" today.

Carpe Canus? "Can, Seize!"? Or were you trying to say "Dog, Seize!" (Canis, Carpe)? Or perhaps "Seize the Dog" (Carpe Canem)? Or is Canus a plural fourth declension noun accusative euphemism for something?

My bad. Carpe Canem. Seize the Dog!

Funny to me because Angcuru is frightened of dogs IRL; just as he is of talking to women(aren't we all, a bit?).

I ain't frightened of dogs or women! Dogs are slobbering, nosy, noisy loud, and annoying, I just don't like 'em.

Hey, I'm not frightened of talking to women, I do it all the time. I just have trouble with this one, in the sense that you can't talk to someone you can't contact.

Well, some good events for once. I saw her at college tonight, got her number, called her up, the whole deal. Now if only the conversation had lasted longer than 2 minutes. On the plus side, she said that once she gets back from a friend's birthday party in Pennsylvania, she'd like to hang out and talk.

I'm actually smiling for the first time in about a year.

Cool! Congratulations, man. I'm glad things worked out that way for you.

No dude, that was FEAR in your eyes when my puppy tried to climb on your lap! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Seriously though, congrats. Now if we could just get Chris a girl, and if I could actually find a decent one, we'd all be set in the group...Steve and Ron are on their own.

He's money and he didn't even know it!

 

[Angcuru]

Well, it's a nice change, but nothing is certain....yet.

Congratulations!

I hope all goes well for you.
