I've been in a relationship with this girl for about 10 months and everything has been good (no fights/arguments, etc). It's my first real relationship to speak of. But the last couple of weeks all I've been thinking about is that we should break up. I've also been heavily crushing on another...

So I like this girl at work, we went out to some bars tonight as a group with a bunch of coworkers, I got totally drunk, tried to dance with her when she was dancing with some other dude, I told her "I'm dancing with you now," she said "no, I'm dancing with this guy right now," and then I...

I've overcome a lot of my issues over the past years. I have a pretty social job that involves a lot of interaction with coworkers and strangers, I can have normal conversations (some meaningful, some just general chit chat) with coworkers without feeling nervous, I can joke around, I have no...

Men ditch 'nice guy' style, get more dates

So this past week I was in a really bad place in my head, steadily getting more and more depressed over my shyness and how it has kept me so sheltered from having any social life or relationships. This absolute sweetheart coworker/friend, who I think has had me kind of figured out better than...

This is actually pretty funny, at least I think so... at work today I was sorting some paperwork in one of those aluminum form holders when this incredibly cute co-worker I have a bit of a crush on walks in and says hello. So what do I do? I promptly drop the box, sending paperwork flying all...

So at work I was in the back of one of the work vehicles with 2 coworker, one of them being the girl I really like. And I was being asked "so what do you want to do for your break, where do you want to get dropped off," stuff of that nature and I really just felt like I was being put on the...

So I was able to call this girl today without totally losing my mind beforehand. Don't get me wrong, I was nervous, but I was able to carry on a conversation without too much effort. She almost seemed more nervous, mumbling off at 100 miles an hour... it was kind of cute. ::o: I'm just happy...

I'm coming to the realization that I feel worse when I actively try to initiate something with a girl I'm interested in since the interest never seems to be mutual. So what's the point of trying?

I don't really know why, nothing specific happened that should make me feel sad. I am just really pessimistic about everything right now. And it seems like no matter what I do to improve myself, I can't seem to get certain things to go my way. Somehow coming home from work today I felt so empty...

First off, I'm really happy I found this place. I'm 25, had my first and only "girlfriend" (really in name only) at 16, which lasted about a week or so and never went beyond hand holding before I got dumped. Like many here I was a social outcast in school. Plenty of kids had the time of their...
