haha, what a joke of a topic😁

you guys really cracked me up👍

Try coaxing him out of his 'shell' 🤣 with a legitimate, transparent, face-to-face conversation. Of course, that assumes he isn't completely immature—in which case, "seriousness" and "dialogue" might as well be foreign languages to him.😁.
Just lay your cards on the table, so to speak, so you don't end up looking like some predatory creep who ends up with a restraining order hanging over their head in a few months.🤣

Stick to fruit. Anything sugary just rots your teeth. A Banana Split is fine, but honestly, a plain banana is the only sensible choice. 😁

Stop riding him 😁 if you think he’s actually capable of doing anything.

Gary Murphy2 said:Hey everyone, I need some advice here. Here is the situation:
A smart, attractive woman in her early 30s fell for a younger, shy guy. About three months ago, they were planning what should have been the most romantic day imaginable. Everything felt like something straight out of a movie—a beautiful apartment, scented candles, a jacuzzi... and most importantly, he finally decided to show up. He knew everything about her: that she was older, married, and had a child. He also knew she had decided to leave her husband to give him a real shot, which is only fair, right? The atmosphere was perfect—an NFL game playing on TV, a light drizzle outside... After talking through life, they played a little game with matches to break the ice and decide who would hit the jacuzzi first. A little later, they were both in there. It was non-stop kissing—face, neck, shoulders—for an hour or two. But then, that one thing every man secretly fears happened 🙏... things stayed strictly at the kissing stage, but honestly, that was fine. There were no expectations and no negative reactions. Afterward, they just kept talking and kissing on the sofa, and she ended up driving him home. She even gave him a kiss when she left his car. The next day... silence. No word from him. She sent a quick text just to break the ice, but since then, the silence has become deafening
. A few details about him: he’s withdrawn, shy, and has a rough past (though we all do). He doesn't act like a tough guy, but he is a great kisser
. What went wrong here? How can this be fixed, and if so, how??


Who was playing though?
He probably didn't reach out because he was bummed about how the game turned out 😢 Neb didn't even call back

Rebecca Scott3 said:...I used to be kind of drawn to those guys who were a little shy—nothing crazy, just quiet, you know? But looking back, I’ve finally realized that more often than not, that "shyness" is just a mask for guys who are total egocentrics, emotionally immature, or just too self-sufficient for their own good...

Well, you admitted yourself that you were attracted to those kinds of guys... so I suppose the realization finally clicked.😉

...well, that’s exactly why I finally swapped out my stovetop... I am officially done with those shy, weak burners that barely even simmer...🙂)
