Never Been Kissed

[pianistimo]

this did not work for that NASA astronaut 'what's her name.'  close working proximity made her more the 'hot chick' and the tame wife a close friend.  although, the one who can actually tie up and kill the other one is probably the one that guys seem to want.  why is that? 

[thalbergmad]

Marry the hot chick and bone her when you want, and be close friends with the woman who has the best personality.

Good approach?

Excellent idea, but how about marrying the woman with the best personality and boning the hot chick who is your close friend?

Or, marrying a hot chick, bone her when you want and having another hot chick as a close friend and boning her as well?

Just an idea.

this is why thal has never been kissed properly.

(only happens in the banking, gambling, or precious gems industry)  oh.  i forgot.  you used to work at a bank.

face it.  pianists cannot have a love life unless they lose their identity for a few days and go 'incognito.'  i would suggest that dregs stop playing the jazz piano for once - and actually sit at a table.  act innocent.  look lost.  wait.

[thalbergmad]

I have been kissed properly thank you and on the lips as well. Have you been kissed on the lips?

What the Antiques Roadshow has got to do with kissing is beyond me.

My first kiss I was standing on a chair at a party thinking about kissing when a girl walked by must have picked up the vibe...  She asks me if she can kiss me, then asks her boyfriend if it's cool with him  

It was not a good kiss, but I quickly improved

[pianistimo]

i once had my lungs deflated in a matter of a minute.

[thalbergmad]

Must have been some kiss.

Thal

[rc]

Unless your spleen explodes it wasn't a real kiss

[pita bread]

Have you ever seen "The 40 Year Old Virgin"?  Maybe there's some good advice on that film you could use?

Tea-baggin' it?

[pita bread]

The important thing to consider if you want to be romantic and not "in the friend zone" is that you cannot be the nice guy she goes to when she has problems.  That's what her gay guy friends and girlfriends are for.  Ask any hot girl what her last boyfriend was like and you're likely to get an answer like,"he was an ***hole!", and you wonder why all these girls are going for guys like that instead of nice guys like you and I.  I'll tell you why... girls aren't attracted to nice guys in that way.  Sure, they will tell you they want a nice guy and all that, but when it comes down to it, the nice guys aren't the ones getting their game on.  Once she makes a decision about whether you're "mate" material or "friend" material, it's very difficult to change her mind, and if you're interested in her, you're setting yourself up for a tough letdown, or a termination of the friendship altogether.

If you're a nice guy, you will finish last unless you take steps to change this.  That doesn't mean you have to be mean, but you can't be nice all the time!  Give them an occasional back-handed compliment, but don't straight out insult them at all.  You have to be unpredictable, you have to make them think they can't do any better than you (again, the insecurity thing) or they might think they CAN do better than you, and they'll leave you (that's also why you should never pay for a chick's boob job...  you'll be out of money and she'll be out of your life, because then she knows she can get someone hotter or richer than you now).  One more thing, occasionally do things that let them know you like them, but not all the time (flowers, little sticky notes, dinner, etc.).

Most of the time, if you're a nice guy, do the polar opposite of what your instict tells you.  You will be surprized at the results!

I heard a story once about a guy that walked into a restaurant.  There was another guy with a terrible haircut -- and this guy made a comment to him saying, "nice hair...hmph", or something like that.  There was a hot chick at the next table that stood right up and said, "how DARE you be so rude to that guy, you don't even know him!", to which he replied "who the **** asked you?!"  Then she started opening her mouth again with some emotional retort.  While her mouth was open, he stood up and kissed her.  They lip-locked for several seconds, and then she said, "I don't know why I'm kissing you -- you're an A**hole".

That's WHY she was kissing him if you ask me!  Girls are attracted to a**holes... 

Hahaha, was this a rant of frustration?

[jlh]

Hahaha, was this a rant of frustration?

Why would I have need to be frustrated?  Yes, I've been placed in the friend-zone by a few hot chicks, and that's ok.  Many more hot chicks have placed me in the other zone, so I'm ahead in that department.


Oh, and Susan, I never said you should insult the girl.  Being mean is not cool either.  The only thing I was trying to say is that girls go for the best man they think they can get, whether it be based on looks or money (frequently money), and if you are always the gentleman and always put her up on a pedestal, she will either get bored with you or her ego will get so inflated she will think she can do better than you.

A back-handed compliment is not an insult, either.  If you use them for girls at a club or something, they will be all over you, for the same reason they were all over Thal in his story.

[pianistimo]

he was dreaming.  have you read his descriptions of his girlfriend?  well, anyways - i'm glad that people don't just go for looks.

now, it could be pheromones are what dregs is lacking.  i've seen them advertised in some magazines.  not sure if they work.  (*personally, i find that a bit odd -since cologne and perfume seems much easier to use and less expensive). 

i've not been in a club for 20+ years - so i wouldn't know if women only go by smell now - or not.  i suppose one could just sorta watch and see what works for other people.  women usually just sit around and wait for a guy to make a move, though, so - if both are just sitting and waiting ...nothing is going to happen.  i think you have to just decide you're going to do something.  accidentally fall near her or something. 

i only get hit on at concerts.  once a man dropped his recital program - so i bent over and picked it up and handed it to him.  do you know what he did then?  dropped it again.  that's the kind of crazy person you have to be.

[thalbergmad]

Well, not as a customer anyway.

How was Benny Goodman? Was he good live?

No, Thalberg, not the MAD variety...

All you have to do to get pheromones is skip a day in the shower.  Those novelty pheromone bottles you buy don't work -- well maybe they give a person confidance, but that's what girls are looking for anyway, so just be confidant and you don't need any gimmick pheromone bottles.

Fall?  That would only show her you're clumsy.  What about going over and just starting a conversation?  That's not hard to do.  What about telling her she looks bored and you have a cure?  Offer her a drink.

He probably just wanted to look at you bending over.  

[pianistimo]

hey, it was a club21.  and i was - hmm.  let me see - ok it was more than 20 years - maybe 24 years ago.  my hubby and i can't take smoke.  i get headaches and he can't breathe.

uh... cause that's... what we... want

What the hell are you talking about!?

The short and simple truth is that women are as egotistical and selfish as men, or probably more so. And they are even more fragile (as they're used to it not being hurt). They're just good at hiding it socially. This is especially true for "HOT" women. They organize men and women into categories within seconds of the individual being within their view.

What are we even talking about here?

[thalberg]

No, Thalberg, not the MAD variety...

Ha, yes, that story......well, she was indeed after me because I avoided her.  But another reason is that the story happened ten years ago back around the time I was doing professional modeling, so I looked a lot different back then.....much better than I do now.

[pagesong]

Then try to play for them then. In my experience, girls love that.

You are a jazz pianist, what is more romantic than that? Very little i think.

Thal

totally agree!

[thalberg]

Hey dregs!  We want an update.  Have you kissed anyone yet?

[lucylucy]

 
you're 38 and you never kissed a woman   
sorry for you 

[Essyne]

Not everyone makes out w/ the first person they see.

I am more selective.

*Never Been Kissed  *

[Petter]

A boy kisses someone. A girl gets kissed.  I´m curious about the terminology. He claims he never have been kissed. Maybe that´s part of the reason.

[Essyne]

For whatever reasons, I have never kissed a woman.

how old are you?

[Essyne]

I believe the impetus may be the fact that I just cannot cultivate a "sexy" or "romantic" atmosphere when talking to the opposite sex.  Instead, the conversation is nice, pleasant, interesting and enlightening, but always platonic.  I can't help but feel like I'm passing my prime. 

I don't know if this is relevant at all coming from a 17 year old girl who has only been in one 2-day relationship that ended in me swearing off men forever (yeah right  ), but I know that when I DO meet someone that I'm interested in dating, I'm not looking for the "sext" or "romantic" atmosphere. "Interesting" and "enlightening" is what I want.

I know that I'm much younger than you, but I have many of the same feelings. But I just know that if it's meant to happen, it'll happen. I think there's nothing worse than FORCING a relationship (i.e. dating manuals) or trying to change yourself. Just keep going, and eventually, she'll show up (She's probably just a little late anyways - we often are  ).

On a final note, I have found through careful witness that the most intimate relationships occur later on in life. You are past the stage of trying to be "sexy" and you just want true intimacy, something that comes not from the physical, but from the emotional and intellectual.

Take it or leave it (I don't know how old this post is  ).

~Ess~

[Petter]

I´m still interested in the terminology damnit.

[thalbergmad]

The old slapper that i used to go out with kissed like a vacuum cleaner, so i am not really interested in kissing at the moment.

Personally, i view kissing as just a transfer of germs. My days of playing tonsil tennis are over.

You will find the right person one day Thal. 

[indutrial]

Though, having some new germs around activates and strengthens the immune system. In that regard kissing a girlfriend/boyfriend is preferable to licking a doorknob.

[thalbergmad]

Well, i used to let her do that.

Oh yes, i do good door impressions.

I am used to people walking out on me.

That's the kind of thing that pianistimo used on occasion to say to him...

And as the old cliché has it, when one door closes another one falls off its hinges.

Sliding doors do have their contextual uses, one may suppose...

*not gone through all posts above*

from a girl's point of view, what makes a man attractive/acts make a men possible partner:

1. the way he dress: tidy (first sight thing )
2. the way he speaks: modest, not overly confident, but confident enough to make she feels you're the one she can rely on.
3. conversations: caring about the girl's life and don't forget what she said.
4. atmosphere: ask her out for lunch first, then after a few time make an excuse for yourself to date her for dinner or somewhere you can go with her at night.
5. RESPONSIBILITY: this is very important
6. give her a clue that you're still single, or girls would assume such a good man must be already taken. A simple ring is really an important hint to a person's romantic status, don't ware one if you're not in relationship.
...
and more, can't think of it now

the kiss thing, it will happen naturally but it's YOU to deicide when to.

P.S. I'm not much better than you 

[G.W.K]

LOL

Why is everyone going so "deep" (excuse any pun) into kissing someone?

Grab someone and snog them. If they hit you (most likely) who cares? At least you would have kissed them!

  Not the most helpful advice...but it could work.

That's theoretically rape, it's not really good when your first kiss results in 20 years of jail lol.

True, but when you are in jail, you will get lots more practice.

Okay people!  This thread is really, really old and someone bumped it.  The author is long gone.  I just had to let all of you know that because some of you don't look at dates on the postings.

That's hardly a fair question ("Are you gay") and quite frankly, I hope you were being facetious. Gay people kiss too, y'know.

This is a completely fair question. If you look at the original statement of the poster, he said he's never been kissed by a woman.
