You talking about those little wax soda bottles with that "juice" inside of them? Those are pretty good, but hard to find. I'd stick to an online candy store.

That's usually how it happens. You ended it without knowing it. Need to be more careful with your words. It's just what you say, but it's how you say it as well. Granted, it was a text message, so what you say is 100x more important since it's hard to express any kind of emotion in it.



Coming from an Air Force veteran, I know how hard it can be to go through something like this. The best thing to do is get that emotional closure. Do a Google search for the process of Ho'oponopono. It is incredibly powerful and can help to bring you some peace.



As they say, Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. An ex-girlfriend of mine tried to berate me on MySpace without taking me off of her friends list. It didn't work. This won't work either. She's trying to make you feel bad for breaking it off with her. She's being childish. Disregard it.

[quote[then i texted her and was like i miss you and shes like stop it david, i miss you too but i cant give in yet. any 1 have any idea what this means or what i should do or what

She needs her space. She needs time to heal in her own way. She might come back to you. She might not. But what you need to do is heal yourself first. If you take my advice to look up Ho'oponopono (it's goofy looking, so just copy and paste :D), make sure to keep it a positive experience. Karma is real.



When I have trouble sleeping, because I have a world of thoughts in my head, I lay down, take a deep breath, and begin to count five things that I can hear, smell, feel, and if it's there, taste. After you get five for each, do four, and so on down until one. Before you reach one, you'll have pretty much knocked yourself out. It's a self-hypnosis induction called the Betty Erickson method. I personally don't use it because I do pass out.

Women are enigmas. I've been with my share of women and I still don't get them. But I know what to say and do to flip attraction switches in their minds. But I'll never be able to figure them out. Not even women know what they want, broseph.

Best thing to do is to give her space, stay away from her online, and heal your heart. You don't need this kind of negative energy going in to Basic Training.

Bars are good if you're looking for a fling. Coffee shops are good if you're looking for some relaxed conversation. Book stores if you're looking for someone with some brains.

Grocery stores if you want a woman who cannot only cook dinner for herself, but knows how to make breakfast in bed. =D

Laundromats. At least you know she wears clean clothes.

Strip clubs if you want a woman who's comfortable with her sexuality and likes to "explore."

Sidewalks, news stands, White Castle, Burger King... hell, I picked up a super-hot mom at a Chucke E. Cheese last year!

There are way more women in this world than men. As long you're not sticking to your local Freemason Lodge, you'll be fine.

Witty banter and being able to make them laugh will get you further than anything else.

Lady and the Tramp. I still shed a tear for old Trusty.

Put it out there right away what your intentions are. If you're just looking to have some fun... let him know! Managing expectations is the best way to handle anything in the start of a relationship. If you're just looking to hook up... let him know! If not, let him know.

But getting laid won't help you get over your ex (husband?). You need to heal your heart first. If you're in to trying something new, do a search for the Huna tradition of Ho'oponopono. I do this with men and women all the time so that they can find peace in their life, forgive their ex for the pain that was caused, and can finally start the next chapter of their life on a positive note.

OG

Got lost in north St. Louis. =D Missed her exit in St. Charles because her hand was... "high up on my leg." Next thing I know we're in Hazelwood. Two white people riding in a convertible in THAT neighborhood at night?

At least we weren't on the East Side! :P

In a bout of "desperation" for "something" about five years ago, I tried something along those lines of a "Date Married Women" thing. They were flakier than pie crust.

OG

Now imagine if you had the power to create a new path where it was like that again. Think about how much more interesting your story will become when you take on that new frame.

OG

I've discovered a "shamanistic" way of healing broken hearts. I've slightly modified the Huna tradition of something called Ho'oponopono. It's very powerful!

OG

He tried getting in to La Crosse, but the kids were "too rough" for him. He tried fencing only to see that it was "too strict" for him. He loves pro wrestling (I'm partly to blame for that), and I've tried getting him in to freestyle wrestling, Judo, and Sambo, but he's just a lazy spectator who prefers to have life pass him by.

I'd work some of my magick on him if I could actually get his attention. Unfortunately, hypnosis isn't effective if you can't get someone's attention first.

I'm outta here for the night. Talk with y'all tomorrow.

OG

Good things come to those who wait. =P But, as you said it yourself "one of these days" I will put a pic up of myself.

OG

They might not have girlfriends, which isn't as important as I might have made it sound when I first responded on this thread, but at least they're learning the importance of interacting with others their own age, in person. They will be more socially adjusted as adults than the ones that spend all day online playing video games.

OG

I've never once called him a loser, or told him he's worthless. Being a hypnotist and a confidence guru, I know the power that words can have on your psyche more than average people. But it's hard to get someone's attention and point them to the greener side of the pasture when they've tuned out everything around, except for what's in front of them.

I'm also a playboy who coaches guys on becoming more "alpha" (as they call it) so that they can at least have the personal strength and courage to walk up to a woman. He knows I have the talent to get pretty much whoever I want. He teases me when some of my lady friends call me and I tell him the same thing everytime I hang up with them: You can have this, too. It's not difficult.

And he should know that when the time comes, and he becomes sexually active, that not only will I have been there to teach him how to be a responsible man with it, but his mom and dad (my step-dad) both work in a hospital and constantly harp on about safe sex practices. They voice them at me, but I'm too smart to get caught up like that.

And it all goes back to being social and knowing what you're capable of doing. If you never try anything new, then you won't have the experience to draw from when something comes up.

And yes, run on sentences are fun. :D

OG

It's not about "being popular" in my book. I remember being in the sixth and seventh grade you weren't "cool" unless you were "dating" someone. Today, it's to get him out there, get a new life experience, and something he can learn from and grow from to become a more diverse/dynamic individual later in life.

It's not about sex or anything like that. It's about not losing one of the key aspects of being a human being. I can't count the number of women I met that couldn't hold a conversation with you unless it was done via text messaging. And they were in their mid-20s like myself! Imagine how bad it's going to be in 12 years for him if he never learns how to meet and interact with people.

I was a shy, introverted kid myself, but I at least went out and played with my friends. That's something most kids don't do today because it's "more fun" to talk to them over the IM or through a text message.



Quoted for truth.

OG

And he doesn't know how to socialize as a result of it. If it's not artificial stimulation, he doesn't want any of it. He shuns playing with his real friends for playing a fantasy game online. He knows people by screen names and the "race" of their characters instead of as John, Kevin, Freddy, and Vince from down the street.



When I was 12, I was out interacting with people. I knew more people from the neighborhood than most kids. If I wasn't closely acquainted with them, I at least knew them from being around. Regardless of the time of year, it's just about impossible to get him out of the house without some sort of bribe.

Instead of getting with a group of kids his age and having snowball fights (which we now have more than enough snow for), he'd rather stay inside and talk with a bunch of faceless creatures about killing an ogre that's terrorizing the village, and then do nothing about it.

If he gets herpes later in life because he was "too friendly" then it's his own damn fault for not screening his partners better. If he ends up with a kid, then it's his and his mate's fault for not practicing safe sex. Hell, I'm the only one in my family, who's old enough to responsibly procreate, that hasn't. All of my cousins (except one) are married with kids. The single one doesn't believe in monogamy and got his from a drunken one night stand. My older brother has one because he wasn't careful enough, and my little sister has three because she doesn't seem to know what birth control is (even though it's been pounded in to her skull since she was 10), or how to say "no".

People, like dogs, that are not socialized at an early age, and continue that face-to-face interaction, are more likely to lead jacked up lives down the road. If your dog doesn't meet other humans, or even other animals, they can go nuts when someone/another animal gets anywhere near close to them. Same thing happens to human beings. If they aren't social, they tend to get very withdrawn and awkward around others.

Besides, what healthy 12 year old boy isn't obsessed with having a "girlfriend?" It's perfectly natural as the hormones begin to take over more of his "rational thinking" to turn towards girls, or at least something sexual on some level.

OG

MTV, while a waste of time, isn't nearly as bad as Internet games. MTV made people stupid and phony. The Internet has made people anti-social, and dependent on artificial forms of contact.

And I wonder why my 12 year old brother won't take my advice on getting a girlfriend. He's too busy playing World of Warcrack to mingle with new people.

OG

Fear is just a negative emotion you can easily overcome. Whether you suffer from stage fright, approaching a stranger for a conversation (aka "meeting someone new"), or talking to someone on a "blind date" if you will.

With one very simple technique, you can vanquish that inner-voice of negativity. This is something I've done... countless times, and have taught 100s of people this one, simple thing to overcome what they fear.

Before going in to a situation you're "scared of," you close your eyes and take a deep breath. Draw in all that negative energy inside of you, and put it deeply in to your lungs. Now, think of a time where you were on top of the world! On Cloud 9! Felt INVINCIBLE!!!! Draw that feeling in and blow out that negative energy from your lungs. I personally say "F**k it!" as I do this. It helps get rid of that negative energy and you feel that incredibly positive state you just recalled.

Do this enough times and, before too long, you'll be able to get in to that "F*** it" state of mind and not care about what's coming up, because you'll be too focused on just having fun to be "scared."

OG

You mainly see this with teens and people in their early-to-mid 20s. They have a hard time having normal face-to-face conversations, recognizing facial expressions, and have very poor body language.

Thank you World of Warcraft for ruining a generation!

I personally spend at least 5 to 6 hours online everyday. But the vast majority of that time I'm helping men and women fulfill their dreams and making a few dollars off of it by giving them confidence, motivation, and PASSION to succeed in ALL aspects of their lives.

It's amazing what you can accomplish when you allow yourself to awaken your inner-self.

OG

I read this on a different forum a few days ago. Hell yeah I'd read my back! It doesn't get good until the end of it (so far), but I'd read it. The question is... would you?
