ewh... aren't guys supposed to be all manly and not-intimidated?
in other news, canadians are yummy. And I totally sketched my friend out when she found out I thought her (canadian) friend was yummy. not really a problem, but I thought it was funny.
w00t! im canadian! and manly and butch, go me! this thread makes me sad... this is the last time ill read this! <<<< that face is me being smug. cause i dont think im smug enough... its a shame really.
Most of the guys that i talk to all told me at first that they were intimidated by me, which i dont even get they all are like 6 ft tall and i'm only 5"8 . I think i'm pretty approachable I may keep to myself and not talk to anyone that much but i dont see the problem
I get told that. I'm short, so I know it's not a physical thing (though when guys piss me off, they do tend to cover their balls, just in case...). Perhaps it's just that you're a confident person. That's what I've been told - I'm very confident and self-assured, and I once intimidated a guy at a job interview because of it. I think it's brilliant

Some guy once told me it because i tend to challenge them mentally,physically and emotionally, come to think of it it is kinda true
interesting, i've been told similar things as well.. independence/confidence intimidates people.. but then why do guys claim they like girls who are independent? i think they lie and just want to rescue that damsel in distress... and then their egos are even bigger. haha
Guys I highly recommend you take this quiz its on OkCupid.com I took it and here are my results

The Priss Deliberate Brutal Love Dreamer (DBLDf)
Mature. Responsible. Aristocratic. Excuse me. The Priss.
Prisses are the smartest of all female types. You're highly perceptive, and confident in your judgements. You'd take brutal honesty over superficiality any time--your friends always know where they stand with you. You're completely unfake. Don't tell me that's not a word. You're also excellent at redirecting internal negative energy.
These facts indicate people are often intimidated by you. They also fall for you, hard. You have a distant, composed allure that many find irresistible. If only more of them lived up to your standards.
You were probably the last among your friends to have sex. And the first to pretend that you're pregnant. LOL. Though you're inclined to use sex as weapon, at least it's not as one of mass destruction. You're choosier than most about your partners. A supportive relationship is what you're really after. Whether you know it or not, you need something steady & long-term. And soothing.
To make you all feel better about your love lives, I'm almost 20 and I've never dated anyone. I've actually only ever been on 3 dates. I tend to fall for guys then find out that they're involved with someone else. It's fantastic . Oh and I've also been told by multiple guy friends that they don't see me as a girl, so I guess that's part of the problem.
Whaaaaaaa? But you are teh gorgeous! More proof why men are stupid. (Edit: 3700??)
I'm always convinced that I don't deserve what I have. When dating my first boyfriend, for about the first week, I thought it was some cruel prank.
I'm neurotic and sometimes I worry that it's going to not only affect my relationship with my boyfriend, but my relationships with my friends (the mark of a true neurotic, no?). [Like, I'm normally pretty level-headed, but I manage to freak out about small things like the fact that we were out of eggs when I was trying to make meatloaf. I stood, rumaging in the fridge, as my boyfriend tried to find a way to get me to relax. My stress about big things manifests itself in little things. How does one go about fixing that? Take yoga?]
P.S. You're all beautiful and I mean that in the most honest, non-creepy way. Yes, I don't know you all in person, but you're all funny and witty and amazing and any boy who doesn't want to spend all of his time with you is obviously delirious.

Yoga cures everything and chocolate
I try not to let anything bother me much I think life is too short to be stressed, so Tonetoile when you feel like your heads gonna explode do something for me :
Stop, take a deep breath,count to ten, look at whatever is stressing you out and say "I'm not gonna let you ruin my beautiful day" (even if its not)
im fucking lonely. im so lonely. just about everyone i know has a boyfriend or girlfriend. im so bored with everything. they way life is goin right now. theres nothing exciting for me. for the past year everything has been exactly the same for me. nothing has changed. theres no excitement. i dont do much cause theres not much to do around here. im just so incredibly lonely. and dont think im depressed cause im not. but im not like extremely happy either.

You could always change you screen name to "smugness" but that doesn't really suit you. Canadians don't do smug do they?
...Help, Barney the Dinosaur has invaded my brain. Time to set the self-destruct button!
then hugs....once the bugs are gone
