The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Ladies have never really taken a liking to me, except that that started changing in June, after I graduated. Even still, I'm kind of stuck in the whole mindset of girls never liking me, so my friends make fun of me about how terrible I am at picking up on signs when girls flirt with me.
Kinda funny, really.

Hmm
2000: played terrible online MUDs
2001: a space odyssey. 9/11 dramatically changes the trajectory of my life. I work at a natural foods cafe.
2002: I lose my virginity to a girl with vaginismus. I understand why Franz Kafka regarded sex as God's punishment for being born.
2003: I manage to alienate myself from literally everyone I know and start high school, but I smoke so I have new friends basically immediately upon starting college.
2004: A bloo bloo bloo girls don't like me. Oh well I have a 4.00 gpa halfway through college.
2005: My guild gets a world first in black wing lair. I start a wonderful relationship with a girl who happens to wear an F cup. GPA drops to 3.5
2006: Girlfriend goes on a trip to italy, comes back and moves in with me, then breaks up with me. I quit playing world of warcraft. GPA increases to 3.72. Puzzle pirates has no negative effect on GPA.
2007: I graduate college and start working. I move back to the town where I went to high school, which is where my job is. I don't have friends in real life so I play puzzle pirates basically 24/7 while not working.
2008: I forget to play puzzle pirates, which I guess is like quitting. I complete the quarter century mark on my life and start planning my midlife crisis.
2009: Work gets insane. I join a labor union and start seeing a psychiatrist for anxiety issues.

A magician gives you a ring that, when worn, will let you see the world as it truly is.
However, the ring will never leave your finger, and you will be unable to ever describe to another living person what you see.

My first kiss was literally in a truth or dare game in high school. She did it in front of her boyfriend which made it really awkward

Wait, your dad has an affair and you get mad at your mom?
Pretty much yes. I know it's weird but I really cannot care at all about my dad's sex life after he's already gotten a divorce. He stayed with a crazy lady for 18 years just so I wouldn't have to live with a separated family. He gets points for this.
I can understand why you don't get mad at your dad for this. But was she telling you to bad mouth your father or something? I just find it kind of confusing.
She told me while saying, "I don't want this to ruin your relationship with your dad." So I'm about as confused as you are. It's info I didn't need to know and frankly just don't want to know.
"Okay mom, was she hot? I'm not sure if i should high five him or not" probably would have been what i said.
Your life is stranger then mine, not incredibly, but still.
Also I still keep in touch with a lot of high school friends, some grade school friends as well.

Pffft, wanna talk about it? Only girls interested in me are around 15-16 years old, because you see, I'm a really small/young-looking guy, so girls my age are all ''daaw hes cute hes like a little brother''
not booze or regrets, I just don't remember much
I graduated high school and took a year off and went to college and next year I'm going to university which will be new and thrilling!

Mine was in the chip aisle of Haggen's with someone I kind of knew to help them out with a scavenger hunt game.
how many of your high school friends do you still keep in touch with
because I basically speak to 10% of my highschool friends still and I've only been out of school for a year
I speak to none of them :x

I vaguely know one person from high school. I've tried to reconnect with others but they more or less actively despise me.
Also Fedora might have gone to my high school but he didn't confirm/deny

now this might sound fun, but then I dont hang out with a lot of 15 years old, and if I fall in love with a girl my age its already game over at the beginning
2000: I turn 14, start my first job as a landscaper, get into playing WoD RPGs online... Meet a lot of interesting people that way.
2001: Start grade ten, also start working my first job in a kitchen. Started to party too.
2002: Become a huge pothead, get my driver's license, get laid, become depressive for a while, got a car.
2003: Stop being depressive, fix my life, become happy. Become a slacker in school. Travel to Europe.
2004: Graduated from high school, applied to NAIT for Culinary Arts and get accepted, start my college education, dated amazon woman.
2005: Go to college, I'm a cool kid, know everything.
2006: Graduate college, panic attack because I realize that I don't know everything. Start my job/apprenticeship for cooking at the airport. Travelled to Cuba.
2007: Working at a decent job with kick ass people, realize I hate cooking and start prepping to join the RCMP. Travelled to Grand Cayman.
2008: Kept working, interest in RCMP begins to wane. Realizing I don't want to start a career to find out I hate it and end up becoming a cook once again. Upgrade my high school marks and begin my application process to the military. Met the most amazing woman ever, fall in love and she leaves to go back to Whitehorse.
2009: Go to Whitehorse on a trip, visit the most amazing woman ever, things get intense. She moves back and we eventually move in together. I get my acceptance from the forces into ROTP, apply and get accepted to university, I sign my contract and swear into the Canadian Forces under the Navy.
2010: Basic and hopefully an engagement!

Was he giving you the stink eye the whole time?
Can't remember. Was kinda too busy kissing a girl for the first time.

I asked my dad that very same question. He responded with, "Are you sure you want me to answer that?" I pussied out and decided against it.
We kinda sit awkwardly for a minute and I just said, "Bitches, man." and he lost it.

uh
I'm a big boy don't hold back.
