> [@tdn](#): > > I’d set you straight on that, but I’m tired of wrestling with pigs. Well now that we’ve hit the usual “I should know better than to post this stuff on the dope!” portion of your sneak bragging threads, isn’t it about time to ask a mod to shut this thread down or have you changed up that part of your program? ---

It’s also the fascination with girls that freaks me out. Yeah, most guys like to look at pretty girls but they know better than to constantly bring it up. With **tdn** , it’s, “Yeah, I gave some girls change and they so wanted me” or “Check out my vacation pictures–featuring random girls who I took pictures of without their knowledge, nice asses, huh?” It feels like the kind of thing I’d expect from a seventeen year old guy. And I’m sure that at forty or fifty, you still have the same urges, but don’t most guys get a filter about what they actually say by then? ---

> [@MsWhatsit](#): > > PS, regarding this tired meme that “women only have to walk six feet to have sex if they want to” : Yeah, maybe, if you have no standards and don’t give a shit about the person you are having sex with. If you actually want to find someone you have an emotional connection with and find attractive, instead of just using the criterion “will have sex with me if asked,” it’s a bit more difficult. Attractive females in excellent shape attract suitable sexual partners quite easily. It’s just the way things are, not a tired meme. When I’m not in a relationship and want an emotional connection, I’ll get another relationship. If I’m not in a relationship and want to get laid, I’ll pick someone who isn’t relationship material (for me at least) but meets other personal standards. ---

> [@Tom\_Tildrum](#): > > In this thread, he listened to several points of advice and made changes to his plans accordingly. ok, but this doesn’t disprove what i said. again, i did read the whole thread. what i said was, when women on this message board have said that he comes across as creepy, or that his advances may be unwanted, or anything, really, that he doesn’t want to hear, he either doesn’t respond or just says they don’t understand the situation. the waitress/flirting thread is a good example of this. the advice he listened to and took in this thread was taken because he thinks it’s going to help him get laid. i also agree that, when it comes to the topics of women/dating/sex, **tdn** comes across more like a 21 year old frat guy high fiving his bros rather than a man in his forties or fifties. ---

My sexuality is nobodys business by my own. > > For fucks sake, they may have been mutually fapping at each other on the webcam and meeting in person to do it for real is a natural next step, and the OP is embarrassed to admit it. If my family tried to warn me off investing in a possible questionable business at any age, I’d take careful consideration of what they said because I believe they have my best interests at heart, even if they might not be correct in this case. But anyway, point taken, she is old enough to make her own romantic decisions, of course. But, as you also say, her sexuality is nobody’s business but her own - yet she told her brother, who was then concerned enough to tell the rest of the family. That’s incredibly poor judgement on her part. Nothing passes the sniff test here - it all smells bad. I hope it’s not the case, but it just fits the cliche of poor girl from the sticks (with a barely working car) hoping to travel 100s of miles to meet her prince charming from the big city. I also acknowledge that I might be waaaay off base. I hope so. ---
