All work no life balance - what to do?

  • Thread Starter

So i'm at uni at the moment coming towards the end and soon to be looking for a job in my chosen fields. Problem is though the subject I chose is very demanding times wise, it's a career type of subject rather than a purely interest subject. If you want to do well in it or just get involved in it, it's an all or nothing thing it seems. Sure some take it real casually and do the minimal but they often don't do well and perhaps don't enjoy the subject itself as much. I don't see this commitment level changing once I get a job in it, from what I hear its just as bad or possibly worse. Does anyone else have this issue on here and how do you deal with it? I'm not great on the social front anyway, but this situation is not helping since I tend not to talk to people I house share with that much simply because I wouldn't have the time to spend talking with them/socializing, if you know what I mean.

Post breakup behaviour

  • Thread Starter

Why do girls often go so cold and distant when a good relationship ends? I find it really hard to understand how romance turns to contempt. I still feel the pain of the breakup with my first love. Do guys do the same thing? I've always been up for at least distant friendship with exes..

Question about the 180 and gift buying

For anyone who has done the 180 and encountered a big event that normally would be a gift-buying event (Christmas, "big" birthday, etc.). Did you refrain from buying any gifts or did you give a gift. How about cards? Regardless of your choice, how did it turn out and are you glad you made that choice?

Is she playing me, what are her intentions?

  • Thread Starter

Ok so there's a girl I know, who treats me diferently from the other guys, in the fact she's more 'open' with me. She smiles a lot, teases me, playfully gets annoyed with me. She calls me names a lot and insults me a lot (calls me, weird, strange to name but a few) She often brushes against me, and touches me when asking for something or explaining something. When I make her a drink, she says something like 'I love you.' She likes talking to me, when we're alone she asks what I'm doing for the weekend, or what I've done and I get the impression she wants to do stuff outside of work, because when I told her what I did she almost invited herself to come with me saying 'if I knew you were going out, I'd of come with you, I wasn't doing anything' whenever I ask her what she's been upto or what she's doing, it's always 'nothing' or 'my weekend was rubbish'.
Then she will quest ion me about girls. For example I was given soemthing from a friend (whos a girl) and she was asking (oh, is she just a friend or more hey?)
I'm a bit confused of her intentions?
Here's the thing she has a bf who she talks about However when I ask about him, its quite often in a negative manner, it's never like 'oh he's great, he did this, he did that' its almost moaning about him.
So yeah I'm confused about her really, I think perhaps she just likes the attention from me and that's why she gives a negative impression of her bf, what do you think girls?

attractive girls who get loads of male attention on facebook

  • Thread Starter

I look around facebook now and again, when ever I see a super attractive female friend posting a photo of herself she always gets loads of male responses but in reality what do these girls really want and how do they feel getting these messeges? do really like all men saying about you in a sexual way and would you consider dating one.

I see my a few girl-friends pm's packed full of men saying what they think,offering her sex and phone numbers. like some guys actually do this?

Do guys stare at ugly girls...

  • Thread Starter

Do guys ever stare at ugly girls or below average girls?

Would you do it on a regularly basis, so every time you see her- if she's ugly.

If you stare at a girl, is it because you find her pretty? Why do it so many times, its not like you would forget her face?

what is on the man's mind ???

when a single man , whether bachelor or divorced , runs his eyes down a woman's body , appreciating and admiring and then smile slightly , then look away shyly , what is he thinking of ? dirty thoughts ? or just she's nice and I like what I saw ? or I m interested to know her ? is he shy or just embarrassed to be caught looking ?

of course , the drool and lusty look is without need for further explanations .

Is he genuine or just a flirt?

  • Thread Starter

I'm trying to figure out if this guy I like is genuine or just a flirt. He is very athletic and more on the popular side, not someone I would normally go for as I'm quite shy at first. He goes to my theatre class and stares at me for just a few seconds longer than everyone else, he also gave me a friendly nudge the other day after giving me a compliment and has recently started giving me long good bye hugs. :hugs::hugs:

There's also the other friendly banter/flirting that he does but he does that with other girls too which makes me wonder if he's just being a flirt. I do get a sense that he treats me sligh tly differently to the others but I don't know if I'm just being deluded as I really like him.

The other day he was talking to my friend about this girl he just met and how he changed his photo on social media so she wouldn't think he has a gf (he doesn't) but when I came in he changed the subject and said he didn't care if the girl replied or not.

Also the other day we had to play a character game and he chose me to go after him and his friend said to me "he picked you next, that means he likes you" in a jokey way but he stared at me while his friend said that.

Also because I'm naturally shy I have been trying to talk to him more and was thinking of texting him, is this a good idea? I know guys like a chase so would texting not be advised?

I'm so confused and really like him what do you think and what should I do?

Is Tinder (and sites/apps like it) as weird as it seems?

  • Thread Starter

It just seems kind of weird to me; I mean I am a girl who's too scared to use dating sites but still. The idea of two strangers chatting then deciding "Hey lets meet up and ****" seems so odd. Is it as weird as it seems? I don't mean to be judgemental; I'm just curious.

Whats going on in his head, will he break up with me?

  • Thread Starter

It happens several times, most of the time I meet up with him and stay over and balace my time. But I have coursework to do so i tell my bf i cant meet or stay over. He looks dissapointed, goes cold and wont text for a day or so. I stayed at his last night and we spent today together -i drove him up to another town as he wanted to know where it was as he was starting work there. We were going to go for a drink afterwards. He asked if i was stating tonight too, i said i could stay for a bit but i really need to get on with work ar home. (he doesnt like me staying part the night i pointed this out). He said he wouldnt feel pushed out if i said no. So i said i really need to go home/get stuff done. Minutes later he said he had changed his mind about going for a drink and that he wanted to go home. I said ok and headed towards his home in my car.

Part way there he said ' do you want to bring ure rats for a bit' (i have pet rats and he lets them have a run round his big room). I said ok and since i was driving past his house i went in the left lane to drop him off. He said 'wrong lane, if we are picking up ure rats' I said ' i might as well drop you off first since we are here then go and get the rats'. He said ' never mind forget it'. I said ' you dont want me to come' He said ' no its too complicated'. So i took him home and he said take care.

I felt bad when i got home so texted him to say sorry for being complicated and i would stay the night if he wanted and do the work tomorrow. He didnt reply even though i tried ringing after. Hours later he texted ' just do your own think rach and leave me be now tnite x'.

Its happened before, he has gone cold when I have said im busy and split up for a day from me lol.

Just wanted advice, have i been too complicated :/

How Do I Get Her?

  • Thread Starter

Ive been seeing this girl for almost a year as I make my way to school. We glance at each other. Ive been thinking about her...just seeing her face instantly makes me feel better. Her face is stuck in my head, and I can't help to look behind when we finish meeting. I kinda feel let down for some reason when I don't see her. Last week we met again and she was smiling/laughing she wasn't walking with anybody there were nobody around us so I got a little nervous and acted calm, trying to act as if I didn't care tbh this was an opportunity to get her. So the day after she was with her friends I get paranoid when she is with her friends so I crossed the road. I wanna get her on Monday if I see her...but since I go to a private boys school I don't speak to girls much making me extremly shy around girls. But ive got a feeling that she likes me too after that smile. How do I get her to notice that I like her?
Should I wink, smile or stare...

Concerned friend or more?

  • Thread Starter

So there's a girl I know and we both had a mutual guy we know who we met in college. Anyway, this guy has moved on, she says she really misses him, she plans to meet up with him, asked if I want to come along. She says that his gf is no good for him and he should get rid of her. and that he hopes he can turn his life around. people were also commenting about him, and straight away she starts sticking up for him, and becomes all defensive. People commented he was a bit imature and she said don't you remember when you were that age, I know people worse than him. but this guy is only five years younger than her! He texts her messages but doesn't text him back.
Do you think she has feelings for him? Later on she was also asking if he's still dating the girl, who she said is no good for him.
