I know I know...my standards are way too high for an engineer. I mean a girl who is outgoing and likes to partake in outdoor activities isn't bat shit crazy and can make dinner one evening per week even if it is just mack and cheese? OH MY GOD! I MUST BE OUT OF MY FREAKING SKULL! I need to lower my standards right? Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

I'm working on unjading myself. I know. I still see the world and relationships as big systems rather than people. And people are more alive and more diverse than big systems. As for speed dating, yes I was actually thinking about it. Could be fun. People lie, and it's a little harder to do so when you only have 2 min and are face to face. And let's face it, how impersonal can you be when you try to impress someone in 2 lines in an email.

I am no expert in this, I just got my A last year but I've been riding motorcycles for about 6 years and have done quite a bit of track time on various bikes so those with thousands of jumps please correct me if I'm wrong. Belly to earth skydiving is much like riding a bike around a track. Let's start from the ground. You have done the usual 3 dirt dives. OK stop, get your gear on and go sit in some place quiet with your eyes closed. Focus on your breath. In slow motion run the sequence in your head, from the door to when you pull. Don't try and "see it" no one's brain is that good when they start. Just go through the muscle memory. Push out, smile, legs bent, smile, circle of awareness, smile, hands about equal distance, smile, touch toes, smile, circle of awareness, smile, practice touch, smile, knees and toes touch and flare and land and so on. Just keep it simple. OK now you are in the plane, I know some of the tandem guys really have too much fun on the way up. That bothers some people and I know it bothers me. My brain feeds off the anxiety of the tandems and that's not a good thing. So I close my eyes and focus only on my breath and what my plans are. Make it your skydive make it your moment of zen. You are doing something others only dream of and you should be very proud of yourself every step of the way. The act of breathing and repeating these thoughts in your head sets up a pattern of thoughts in your brain similar to a score of music. I use the same if I'm taking a friends bike around the track. As for flat spins. Older guys please verify or disprove accordingly please no pissing matches. I noticed belly to earth flight is very similar to riding a bike. To go left, look left, push left shoulder down. To turn right, look right and push right. So if you are spinning say right push hard with your left shoulder and look left. It's funny, even pushing your knees hard down even gets you to side slip as if you were on a bike. Though safer due to the lack of the ever popular high side! And well, enjoy what you are doing. I know you are worried about getting hurt. I know I am. So focus on how you got hurt. You didn't have you knees and toes together on your final just focus on getting your knees and big toes together which will give you that clarity of sight to maybe judge your height a little better. -
Wow the guy asks if he could buy you a cup of coffee so that you would have a reason to stay around longer and engage in a conversation and your brain automatically runs off into rape... YEAH!

Look only a moron would put up $100 for a date. Maybe $40. I'm guessing the idea is to make people "put their money where their mouth is" I've been on two dating sights thus far, and I have to say your average chick likes you as you are as a perfect day dream who she speaks with via daily emails. A therapist I know calls it "The Lake House Effect" which is how she can afford a new E class and a home in Florida. You get a girl, starts off normal, has one or two bad boyfriends, gets a bit jaded and forgets that we are all in a way flawed and as such human, she developes a model of what she wants that is inpossible to be unless that guy is never there. So this girl runs off to online dating to find this perfect guy...well one or two dates and her brain picks up the trend....guy starts off perfect in writring and in that still life picture....but in real life his hair isn't perfect or he eats funny or likes bottled water and doesn't tip well....POOOF!....he's no longer perfect. So over time it becomes evidant that it's "safer" to develop "false" relationships based on emails and phone calls than on actually meeting someone. It's a simple defense mechanism. We become wrapped in our own little immaginary world of our own doing for our own safety. And unlike guys who get off on physical contact, most women get off on the emotional connection. And emails are just as good as holding hands for some. It's a very serious problem and as we become more digital in our interactions and the stakes become greater due to economic conditions and people getting married later in life and getting divorced later as well. One of the lovely older ladies at my Yoga class has a daughter, had a bad divorce, single for the past 5 years no kids. Has her masters and is a CPA and does very well for her self. She has an immaginary boyfriend. No joke. As her mother indicates, her daughter carries around a "stock" photo of a guy from some add in her purse and talks about him as if he is real. I've met this women, she is very attractive and very smart and would be a hell of a catch. And if her mom had not confided in me that her 40 year old dauter had an immaginary boyfriend I would have assumed he was perfectly real from the way she talked about him. But no man alive would be his equal. He's perfect in her mind. Now that's an extreme case. Most people aren't that off the wall. But I can see this ecnomic insentive to get people to actually act on their words rather than having a girl sit back and get off on various perfectly written sweet little nothings from that perfect guy that just doesn't exist. And in the US where we live in very insulated little worlds of our own creation anything to get people to come out and meet each other is not only good for ones psyche but also good for the economy. To my friends in Europe where you have this beautiful café/bar/come over for a week end party culture, you have no idea how lucky you truly are.

You first Nah see the major problem with women is this....and I have no idea why you girls do this. You say you don't want X and then you turn around and go for X. And then we guys are dumb enough to ask you, our friends, what you think about dating/girl/other and we half expect to get a reasonable answer.....we don't...we get crap data back but we know no better and we act on it and well it's a mess. We men as asking the blind about the color of the sky. Case in point, I loved my x wife there was nothing I would not have done for her...if you only knew what I had to go through to have her in my life and what I had done for her you would understand but I digress. And she being a typical girl had "issues" with EVERYTHING! And all I cared about was making her happy and giving her a good life. So she would get upset at her boss or her job and would throw a shit fit......I like a dumb ass would call my mom/aunt/female friend and ask for advice how to make things better.....very dumb of me. These lovely women would usually say "Oh she's having a bad day/week/month why don't you surprise her and buy flowers and take them over to her job. All will be well." And that's what I did. I loved my x wife, I wanted to see her smile, and well what's $30 in flowers when you love someone. So that's what I did. I ENABLED HER TO BECOME MORE AND MORE OF A RAVING LUNATIC! Every time she threw a shit fit I would show up with a shit eating grin with a big bouquet of flowers.... If I were a smart man...and hindsight being 20/20 which it always is? I should have told her to grow up, act her age and get over it. And that she was going to have good days and bad days good bosses and bad bosses and she should shut the hell up and make dinner once in a while. So do I "understand" women more now? It only cost me a little over $10k but yeah. I've learned that you should be treated equally. You act like a dumb ass you should be told so. And if I ever get married again....and she has a bad day, week, month...she can go pound sand. This boy is not bringing any girl any flowers to her job so as to brighten her day.

Billvon, Yeah, jsut what I need...another "girl" who is a "friend". I love my friends, they mean the world to me. I care about them for they have always been there for me. And I have many, and am very greatful. But...now...I'm kind of down and well....I would realy like to have a partner. And no, I personally do not believe in friends with benefits. Friends are friends, benefits are benefits. So.....no I think you girls are great. I love you all. BUT you do make life for us guys a bit harsh. You say one thing and do another. You will act first and think later. You will.....just make us guys go batty. But what can you do right?

http://www.deepjiveinterests.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/bullshit.jpg http://www.brusco.es/wp-content/uploads/bullShit.jpg The more of an ass you are the more ass you get... The worst thing a guy can be is a "done project" Job? Check! Nice place to live? Check! On the "right" path to a comfy life? Check! And you will never get laid. Women at best are bored...no clue why with all the shopping but...they appear to be bored looking for a project. So be an ass be a mess and it will work out A-OK!

Hum....if you can guess the weather and take a few days off from work it would be the best. Due to finance I'm every other week end. So it's no big deal. It may actually make thigs better. It will keep you out of the DZ drama. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.
