The Big Relationship Thread

She did not tell me the new username. I figured it out because OKCupid lets you know about new accounts that match your requirements and the pictures and the description were the same.

And yeah, that's pretty much my conundrum Bebop.

Just send her a message that says 'Thanks for the heads up about the name change.'?

Personally, I'd inquire as to why, just out of curiosity... ask if she had a stalker, or just wanted a change, or what?

[Bebop Man]

Be polite and address the name change, nothing more to it. I used OK Cupid for a bit, worst case scenario she's just as polite and you get half a dozen new matches by the end of the week.

[viscomica]

Ask her why she did not tell you her new username. If she changed it without notice chances are she was just not that interested in keeping in touch with you. But she could have forgotten or maybe she intended to contact you afterwards.

The girl I'm talking to at the moment actually first contacted me on OKCupid right as she was closing her account entirely, saying she was leaving the site but thought I was really cute and interesting.

The whole situation still baffles me.

[viscomica]

Women, huh?

[Bebop Man]

I was about to use an old adage about life and women, but I think I inadvertedly offended a lot of people the last time I used it.

Women are like mozzarella; fucking awesome!

This sounds like it is very likely the case. Don't be afraid to message her, just play it cool and say hey. She probably wouldn't have even warned you of the name change if she didn't expect you to find her and continue contacting her.

(P.S. I haven't been on LRR in months but I'm very glad to see that this thread is so undying.)

Covered in bees?

[Bebop Man]

Looked that up and found an awesome Eddie Izzard clip I'd never seen. Thanks!

[Metcarfre]

En serio?

[Bebop Man]

De veras.

[Fezzul]

Confused again!

Ok, so there was this girl I really wanted to sleep with. Yes, I know how that sounds, and it's exactly how it was, and that's basically how I approached her. I got very close to achieving this, but for a twist of fate that put her on the other side of the country sooner than expected. By chance I ended up talking to her on Facebook, and I chatted politely for a while, then realized that I had talked to her for four hours. Apparently she likes me, and I think I might like her, and... well, I'm confused, because she isn't really what I would consider to be anything approaching my time emotionally, and... ugh. And she's several States away, which means I can't work out how this plays out in real life, and I now leave her goodnight messages and... I'm not sure what's going on, and it's weird. And for some reason, I'm a teenager again. Which stinks, I thought I'd grown out of that.

My mother says I need to start dating before it is too late. Maho? Too late for what?

[Fezzul]

Before the human race dies out, Elomin. Haven't you read this thread? You're our last hope to stop the world population from collapsing!

[Elomin Sha]

The race of Man is screwed.

[My pseudonym is Ix]

Or not, as the case apparently is.

(I'm so sorry)

[Elomin Sha]

Fix: The race of man gets no loving.

[Bebop Man]

Dating becomes more awesome if you think you're cancelling the apocalypse through it.

[Elomin Sha]

I want to bring the apocalypse.

[My pseudonym is Ix]

Would it be churlish for me to suggest that it sounds like mater-Elomin has touched a nerve?

[Elomin Sha]

Baaaaaaaaaaaad touching!

(going offtopic here a bit guys... take it to the bag)

Yesterday I was helping a friend move and his sister was helping too. I got a faint idea that she might be interested in me... so I started looking for any excuse to drop the word girlfriend in the conversation to make sure she wasn't getting any ideas.

I'm always conflicted on these kind of things. At what point are you required to point out that you have a girlfriend to avoid possible awkward situations?

Maybe I'm just imagining that she was starting to see me as possible dating material, but in my mind it's better to be safe than sorry...

How do others go about situations like this?
