I'm noticing a lot of people are seeking pale as a requirement... we've come full circle I guess. :/
I blame the videogames.

And let's face it, there's something...ahem...about pale chicks. Mesmerizing is a good word.
Pale women put me off. It's only a couple of steps away from Necrophilia. I don't like Necrophilia.
I don't think you'd like the film "Kiss" very much. :\

Eh, I don't really concern myself much with skin tone. As long as the potential love interest in question is OK with the fact that, when prompted, I describe myself as a loser, and that he has no problem with my less than involved religious beliefs, I'm fine with him, as long as the traits I mentioned in my previous posts is apparent.

The most important thing to me is a fun and gregarious personality, that and a fairly above average intellect. Also sharing some of my interests would be nice.

Currently my Girlfriend fulfills pretty much everything I want out of someone for a long term relationship. Now I just need to plan out the proposal.

ok if anyone saw the previous thread (locked now) by somerandomguy... u should know it was me so anyway back to reposting original problem

I am a gay member of the community. There is a guy that I like. The problem of course is that I don't know if he is gay or would like me in that way. We are pretty good friends at the moment and I think telling him my feelings would ruin the friendship. People that are friends with him have suspicions of his preferences and I think he is too. So I ask my fellow escapists any advice they can give me.

I refuse to date anyone who doesn't play video games with me. I also refuse to date anyone without some sort of fashion sense. Other than that, it's pretty easy to get in with me.

Same goes for asking a straight friend of the opposite gender out; bit harsher consequences, but if you're good friends, it should stay intact.

My friend asked the obligatory chick of our group out, and she turned him down gently, and thought nothing of it.

...

My male friend has gotten very depressed and needy of late, (yes because of it!) but it's only because he's crappy with any sort of rejection.

That's tough. I haven't ever really been in your position, but I'm sure I will be (being gay and all!). I reckon you should go for it, unless he's a raging heterosexual, which you've said he isn't. Does he know that you're gay? It will help if he does. If you don't want to risk losing the friendship, then just remain friends for a little longer and get to know him better.

That's all I can think of, at any rate.

i like girls who are confident without being concieted, girls who can make me laugh and girls with enough self worth to tell me if i cross a line. physically I really don't mind. it's a factor yes, but i've dated ugly girls and fat girls so it's not MUCH of a factor

trying to get this thing back on topic...
How do you feel about International short term relationships?

I'm currently in a long distance relationship. It's not overseas or anything. He lives about 3 hours away and we dont see each other that often. We've been together for over a year now but it's just getting really hard. Does anyone have any advice?

If I could ask a personal question. Do you guys have "Get together" days like Weekends and the like?

We try to, but it's hard because both our working rosters change all the time. We manage occasionally.

i have been flirting with a girl at work, but its not serious, we are just friends. never been on a date though, that cant be good.
Ouch, man. >.<;;

Err.. Is she single? Maybe you could try to get her on a few group hang outs, then try to get her alone?

If you're smitten you find her quirks endearing.

I like a woman I can talk to about stuff that I like, and she'd listen, attentively at that. Suffice to say, it's a bit hard to find someone like that (lucky for me I did, after 21 years of being in my lonesome).
