i aian't gonna lie if i didn't know you and you tried to put a dollar in my belt i would of kicked you in the face.....and that's just being real

if i'm just me, dudes get pissed. i talk really fast and make a lot of references to discipline specific stuff. i think they interpret it as me trying to sound smart. the sad thing is, i can't express what i'm trying to say without them.

this ends up being a problem with girls too, but with them i can change the topic to their lives or opinions. if i do that with a guy, he's going to wonder why i'm asking all that crap.

What do you mean by "discipline specific stuff"???

its ****ed up, but logical solutions to problems are the only way i can handle anything - human relationships included.

i know that's messed up, but it's the best i can do right now. the alternative is to become one of those isolated wacko douchebags that is extremely smart and extremely useless to other people.

i'm worried that without friendships, i'll lose any ability to predict what helps other people and what hurts them. that is the failure of those like Bill Gates. he gave up making friends and chose to use logic without humanity. the effects of that are more profound today than i am capable of typing at this moment.

point is, i need to keep trying to stay in friendly contact with other people. if i get lost in my work, i will lose sight of the entire point of being like this - which is to solve a problem healthy, happy people cannot (law, time, money, family, and better choices stop them).

errr.... rant. my bad.

troll

jedi scum.

mabye you are not acquainted with the term "troll"...no worries...but your using fighting words....and there is no need to be harsh...i just call em as i see em.....

Men make friends when they play on sports teams. That's one place.

I always thought guys on sports teams just had to be atleast a little gay. Why else would they want to hang out w/ a bunch of sweaty guys?

How do you become friends with another dude without him thinking you want to plant the pink pole of... um.... ok no more metaphors today.

I can ask a girl on a date easily, but how do you say "hey bro let's go fishing together and drink beer." that seems like mission goddamn impossible for me.

Ummm...because they like to be active and play sports. There's nothing gay about it all.

It's a good way to stay in shape and stay healthy. Exercise relieves stress too.

My Dad was on a baseball team. I remember going to the games. My grandfather was on a bowling team most of his life.

Many of my friends play on co-ed volleyball teams.

What else...keep talkin..i like it when you talk

If you join in the community here(or anywhere) you just make friends with people naturally, and beers and fishing can take place. If you are comfortable enough with your own sexuality there is no reason to feel at any point you are doing anything gay because you are talking to a man. There are gay people here too and you can talk to them as well without them or anyone thinking anything of it.

Thanks dan, I think you're right. I need to stop trying to anticipate events with other people. It drives my brain nuts thinking of what implications a person with xxx birthplace and xxx birthyear and xxx race might take from a statement i make. it is hard to stop thinking, or at least stop thinking about what other people are thinking.
