Apparently not, I asked my friend how her first (education) class went, and she replied, "There weren't any good looking guys there." I was like, "... That's not what I asked." x D 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I attend those classes to get professional feedback on my work because I need to get together a good portfolio for my uni application. It's all to get accepted to a good uni and make my dreams come true, but I guess my dad thinks boys are the only thing that's on a girls mind when she's my age and single... 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needless to say I left it blank. I had to do this in ninth grade while we were reading Romeo and Juliet, and I just wrote "I don't want a boyfriend." across the paper. I got an F. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

breaddd Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 When you try to believe that this romantic attraction thing is for real but it just seems too bizarre to be true. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyFenton123 Posted May 6, 2016 Author Share Posted May 6, 2016 When you're reading Romeo and Juliet and there are so many stupid things you can't help but sigh and roll your eyes every five seconds. Fortunately I'm sitting across from a person who finds it just as stupid, so we can sigh and roll our eyes together and make this ordeal just that bit more bearable 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it would very much depend if I was watching or doing. Though the latter's unlikely since I have no QPP I'd be likely to take a train journey with. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My ideal boyfriend: 50m tall, breathes fire, walks on two legs, excellent swimmer, has a tendency to destroy Tokyo. As for aro moments: in high school friend of mine kept showing me pictures of J-pop artists and squealing over them. I was more like: 'that guy has awesome hair. Oh wait, you actually have a crush on him. H-how? He lives half a world away and you'll never get to meet him. Why are you sad your crush is a failed one? You knew... Be more logical about your crushes, damnit.' 18 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis On Air Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 When your 13 year old sister is kissing multiple people regularly and you still haven't gotten round to a first kiss. Heck, I'll probably try sex before a first kiss! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone agreed and started clapping. I was so annoyed Sexism and arophobia? I love intersectionality! I had an aromantic moment last night when I couldn't sleep because I was too busy trying to figure out better ways to get to know my squish, and what kinds of answers she would have in response to different conversation topics. Just imagining conversation after conversation with her, discovering layer after layer of her personality. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis On Air Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Two of my friends posted really affectionate pics and paragraphs for their one year anniversary and... I'm unable to see a difference between friendship and love so... It felt a bit alien 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omitef Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I just found out my squish had a crush on a guy, and I felt so happy for her. I started giving her all sorts of advice to get him to pay more attention to her. Our conclusion was that he's an arsehole. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zema Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I remember last year I started reading an article about action games (I can't remember exactly what the article was about). However, in the first or second paragraph, it said something along the lines of, "Action games need romance to have any sort of emotion". I immediately said NOPE and stopped reading. This next one was actually by one of my lecturer's at uni. So each week, my chemistry lecturer shares his "molecule of the week". This week it was tetrodotoxin, which is a highly toxic compound produced by the fugu fish (you know the one that Homer Simpson tried to eat that one time?). Anyway, he was say that some guy tried to poison his wife with it, but the FBI noticed and arrested him and sent him to jail. The man and his wife still remained together afterwards, to which the lecturer said and I quote, "They say love is blind, but maybe love is stupid". Made my day. 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spud Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Today in health class, while talking about drugs/smoking, the teacher asked if we would date someone who smoked. I was laughing internally like: "No. I wouldn't date anyone who didn't smoke either." And then she asked a bunch of questions about a scenario where someone you "liked" smoked what would you do blah blah and I didn't know how to respond to any of them 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
