Glad you brought the party thing up. I was thinking about it earlier.
Parties are stupid and they suck. I've been to a few and they are all boring as hell. What is so great about a bunch of people standing around getting drunk and maybe doing drugs and talking with other people about nothing?

If you don't have an interest in someone, why waste your time talking to that person? Hence the reason why I don't think it's such a bad thing to blow people off.......especially if they're cocky/slimy/creepy/all of the above. Maybe I'm just mean but whatever!
I hate small talk, too...I basically see it as superficial talk that people engage in so as to pass the time and avoid offending one another. I'd rather be offensive, damn it! LoL, not really......Seriously, like you, I'd much rather have meaningful conversations with people (whether I know them or not).
*Just looked at your pic* By the way, you're REALLY pretty!!!

oh yes, she isn't ugly
And now tell my, what's wrong with those cocky guys? Ladies, do you really like conversations "what do u like, where do u live, how old r u, what do u think bout the war in Iraq" better than cocky responses (flirt) which make you laugh sometimes? This can't be true.

Being cocky and flirting are too TOTALLY different things!!!!! In my opinion, a cocky guy basically thinks he's the sh*t and is completely full of himself and conceited.
A flirty guy is just that......a flirt!
In conclusion:
Cocky guys = bad
Flirty guys = good

conceited means full of confidence, right? well, and if guy flirts, his confidence isn't low either
IMO there's a thin border between being cocky and being flirty

Ladies, do you really like conversations "what do u like, where do u live, how old r u, what do u think bout the war in Iraq" better than cocky responses (flirt) which make you laugh sometimes? This can't be true. I had that same thought. If it had been me at that party, it would have been like talking to a stone pillar. It’s the main reason why I’ve always been alone, and will always BE alone: I can’t imagine why any girl who is anything close to “normal” would want to get involved with a dullard like myself. Lets be honest for a moment, and acknowledge that many alpha-types are not the jerks that a lot of shy guys WANT them to be (at least not COMPLETE jerks) - and most are actually quite charming and engaging - they have the charisma that draws women to them like flies to sh*t. If you are an attractive female-type person - shy or otherwise - it’s just a question of time before one of those guys will come your way. You just have to make yourself available and be somewhat responsive to it when it happens. Looking at Christine’s pic, I would state that she won’t be alone for very long. ... and here is where we get back to the whole inequality thing about shyness and relationships for shy guys and gals that has been a major topic of discussion in this group for a long time now. The main reason why I was even considering a relationship with DisneyChick was that she was the first attractive female-type person who had ever expressed such a high opinion of me - and THAT was based on the content of my posts and messages. I had a premonition that, if she had ever met me in person, and spent some time with me, her interest in me would have likely diminished greatly - but I was willing to give her the benefit of a doubt. How that would have played out we will never know for sure.

Don't worry, I hate small talk too. I mean, I don't mind chatting with people when it's interesting (like stuff me and the person is interested in) but when it's the weather, or their kids, or how i'm doing in school or etc etc I try to just leave. I usually just say "yeah I gotta go find so and so" I don't know if it's because i'm always uncomfortable (which I am) or if I actually don't want to talk to them. I have been to a couple parties (i'm still in highschool). They would have been hell if I wasn't very drunk, that's pretty much why I don't go to parties anymore. I have the option of being totally wasted or having a shitty time, only 2 options I have. And since I almost killed myself with alcohol a couple years ago, i'm not too thrilled to get wasted anymore. |

You don't sound mean. Different people enjoy different things. I use to enjoy parties as a kid but I wouldn't want to now. Nor do you have have to talk to people who try to chat you up, it's your right. However I would like to point out that I'm a bit confused as to how this guy has turned out to be some asshole. He saw someone he liked and talked to her. That's how people meet. Just because someone is cocky doesn't necessarily mean they are a bad person, let alone slimey or creepy. Ok so I don't really get on with cocky people but that's just a personality clash. Doesn't make them assholes. You can be cocky, confident, have a high self-esteem etc without thinking you are better than other people etc. Not everyone finds their self-worth by comparing themselves to others. Some do, some don't. |

If someone is simply self-confident but still cares about other's needs and is polite, I would hardly call that cockiness. |
