[QUOTE="Fladian, post: 127891, member: 5833"] I used to visit a lot of forums, but it has been cut down to a very low number. Visiting the SCH forum has a priority for me - and I need to visit it at the very least once every two days, although I prefer multiple times a day. All other forums are optional - although this is an easy one, as I only have to reply to one post. =P But that doesn't mean you can't help them. You can always make an attempt. I have often accepted things to do despite that I had no clue how I would do it. Yesterday is an example of that. My boss asked me to take over the job of another colleague because he got injured in a football/soccer match and was unable to work. Unfortunately I don't have any knowledge about that kind of work. Exactly. It's usually a matter of saying that doesn't make people think twice. But thank you, nonetheless. None of 'em are good. ^^ "I'm not sure what's making me hot... the beer, or you." "Just grab anything you want to have. It's my treat." - a friend *looks at the butt of a good looking girl* "But if I do... I'll get sued." - another friend Well, that isn't bad. In one of the most serious talks I've had with a specific friend, I asked her how she would respond if a friend would walk up to her and said that he liked her (in a romantic sense), using myself as an example. She, in opposite of another friend, would not be bothered by it. She later (about two or three months later) proved that what she said was right. She then asked me if I would be capable of confessing my feelings to the girl I would like straight in her face. She wouldn't be able to and I said that I wasn't capable of that either - I added to it that people would notice that I would like them in the form of hints. In about the same time she proved that she kept her word, I decided not to keep my word and [i]literally[/i] confessed my feelings to a girl I liked. In the early stages of this forum (when it was still under a different name), I had a discussion with another forum member about being just friends with someone of the opposite sex. I saw absolutely no problem with it and am confident in saying that I have more girl-friends than I have guy-friends. If you look at the people I go out with (the solid group, that is) then you have two girls, one guy and me (so two on two). He thought it was impossible and that one of the two people [i]always[/i] have second intentions. Valentine's day is coming up. :wink: If you care, that is. Valentine doesn't live out here. Don't worry about people getting the wrong impression. In all honestly, that's their problem - not yours. Although that I am saying that, I do admit that I am currently concerned that two friends are getting the right (or wrong) message. Although more worried about one of them than the other.
