You've got to remember that women have agendas. She was shit-testing and qualifying you in one motion. She wanted to see how you would deal with overtly sexual references and also whether you'd react the same way as all the other guys - which is to do what you did (don't take offence). Your ideal reaction would have been to just smile and say 'that's pretty wild, but to be honest I don't really find drunk women that attractive'.Sage said:
[social] question for those of you who went to college...
- Thread starter Sage
- Start date
It was a long time...
To get to parties you need one thing, friends. Be a little more sociable, or just drive your Benz Purple Rain Edition loudly around the campus.
Don't you have some sort of Navy Seals grade training in "dorking alone at home"?Sage said:

He's also a mod. You will respect his authority.
Or you will perish in the deep abyss of internet forum rejection hell.
Forum Golden Rule - The moderator is never wrong, in fact, the moderator is the perfect being.
Back on topic...Sage, you really don't sound like you have much to worry about. Everything seems to be in your favor. You just need to utilize what's there.

The UNT theater department has many big partys so find one and go to it. There always looking for fresh meat.
well guys i've learnedfrom this thread that there really isn't anything for me at parties / clubs. I'm not interested in them anymore. And, I think that also describes why I had so much troubble- I'm not interested in the whole point of it already, I just didn't know that was the point.
but yeah the clit piercing that wasnt said directly to me it was in a group of friends hanging out and me, as per usual, being the only straight guy.

exactly!
i'd rather be studying and making A's and getting into Yale law school so that I can make much money rather than going to clubs and parties and junk. i thought that the whole point of that stuff was to hook up but if it's not then my time is better spent making gobs and gobs of money because that's a much more fun way of getting laid than having to just kind of hang around in places like that and pretend to be enjoying it. Not to mention the ultra-high-end hookers (like $1000+ / hour) are probably both better at their job, have a much lower chance of having STD's, and sleep with fewer men. Now that I have a better understanding of the system I cannot imagine why I would ever want to waste my time at a club or party.
Interesting perspective.Sage said:
In my experience, the social skills that can be picked up in your private life are some of the most valuable tools that you will have in your professional one. There is often a choice presented to professional people: stay technical or move into management. It's amazing the similarity between the skillset required to pick-up women or talk to new people and those required to motivate a team. I wouldn't undervalue what you can learn at a party - whilst having fun (and maybe, if you really master it, picking up high-end women for free!).

well, it's not so much that I lack social skills. even last semester when I was creepy / pervy everyone loved me in spide of those few uncomfortable moments after I said something that I shouldn't have. I often have long, engaging, and also flirtatious conversations with women whom I have never seen before or have never talked to. I have people who treat me like a friend whos names I don't even know. And, actually, the creepyness turns out to be because I was trying to convince myself that I was something I am not- the type of guy who sleeps around a lot without making a commitment. Now that I'm not trying to be that guy I'm even more popular. My profs also all love me... with the exception of my kickboxing instructor who doesn't speak enough engrish to form even a single sentance properly (which really doesnt matter because he's totally an awesome martial artist and really good at teaching even with almost zero verbal instruction) so you really can't much tell what he's thinking. Of course, then there is my philosophy instructor who doesn't really seem to care much about anything at all but I think he considers me mildly intelectually stimulating.
My only problem was that I didn't understand the mechanisms of a high-school- / college-type party or a club. That has absolutely nothing to do with social skills and is much more similar to a lack of knowledge of a foreign culture.
Also, I do not plan on moving from a technical job to a managerial one. I may end up practicing law for a firm right out of school however, I do not expect to stay at the bottom for long. Most likely, I will end up making money for myself and later end up in politics. I plan on running for senator (and winning) and possibly trying to land a possition in the supreme court.
Now, for those of you whom that scrares tremendouly- you don't really know me that well. My personality on this forum seems to have developed into it's own organism and really doesn't represent anything other than a warped, perverted version of my inner child. Also, I've learned a lot about people, morality, and life in general over the past few years. I know that I've made some mistakes in my real life and it took me a while to understand them as well as being a real whiney, childish jerk here. I really wish that you guys could actaully get to know the real me because I'm sure that you would find me much more likeable.

Can a Supreme Court Justice afford ultra high-end hookers (after, I presume, he's legalised them in D.C.)?
well certainly not with the income provided by the state. however, people who actually have a lot of money do not rely upon their salary for the majority of their income. I already have enough, without having to work at all, to pay for an expensive private school education without any scholarships, grants, or loans. Barely, of course, but it's still enough. And, I'm not really serious about the hookers.

well, the way I see it that's the whole point. there are three motivators for going into the judicial system- desire for power, to further specific causes, and to serve the greater good of mankind. I love looking at cases and judgements (especially on law and order TV shows) and analyzing the considerations and effects that judges must take into account in making descisions. A lot of times I find myself thinking that in spite of strong personal feelings about a particular issue I would have to rule against my bias as ultimately it would be for the greater good. I believe that is the mark of a truely good politician- willing to sacrifice his or her own personal feelings and bias for what, after great thought, appears to be better for the people as a whole. That is why I am persuing a BA in philosophy; I believe that it will teach me to better analyze issues from an objective point of view and appreciate the far-reaching effects of any decisions. I'm also majoring in Economics (and right now thinking of getting an MA since I will be able to get my B* and M* in 5 years total) as I hope that I will be able to influence fiscal policy to add more long-term financial stability to our national economy and accountability to our government.
I know that I act very selfishly on these forums but I hope that you can conceive that when it comes to reality, while I am subject to human desires of fame and fortune, I also hold dear the wellfare of my nation and seek to improve myself in as many ways as I can that will help me better serve that purpose and not strictly for personal gain.

Agree. IQ is a stupid number anyway...i Have a 151 but it means nothing. ITs all about your personality and your outlook. If you are a depressed prick all the time then you got no shot. If you are naturally good looking then you already won like 80% of the battle...the remaining 20% is your brains. Its all about 1st impressions.
