Jenny Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I have bright light floaters once in a while. Are you very nearsighted? I am, and they were caused by vitreal detachment (its the gelatinous part of your eye, and as it detaches, it pulls on the retina and causes the lights). It's common in very near sighted people, but normally doesn't happen until their 50's, so I must have old eyes. Anyway, I also have thin spots in my retina, so the doctor did laser surgery on me to secure the thin spots against the pulling. I see them less, but once in a while if my eyes are irritated or my sinuses are swollen, I'll still see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 What bitters my coffee is that I'm not posting as much as I did, I'm not spending time here, cannot share and laugh as before and I miss you very much... Well, at least I'm here from time to time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 [biggest]O.M.G.[/biggest] Who knew that trying to set up a Web site would take the tiny little trailings of what's left of my brain, wrap them tightly around a small green twig, and roast them slowly on an open fire? And that's only AFTER I've yanked all my hair out by its roots, blazed it up, and run screaming through the wall leaving a Shawna-shaped hole, complete with arms flailing wildly.

TheLizard Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Earlier today, I saw a girl I recently met while walking back from class. She looked up, saw me, smiled and said "Hey, how are you doing?" I responded with some sort of half mumbled "How are you doing? Doing good..." She just laughed and kept walking. It was the single most awkward interaction I've ever had with a female, I'm normally rather verbose. Guess this means I like her. Kill me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skybluesky Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 At least you mumbled. I can't even talk to the person I might possibly like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Yes, but said mumble resulted in getting laughed at. Not desirable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skybluesky Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 There's a difference between a girl laughing, and being laughed at. If she said "ha ha hippie hair, you're dumb" she was laughing at you. But if she giggled she might be thinking "Tim's so cute with his glasses and his liberal agenda."

Shawna Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 I'm with Shannon on this one, Tim. If she's attempting to interact with you at all, there's no animosity there, and is indeed probably a show of affection. Whether it's romantic interest or just friendship affection, who knows... but it's a very rare piece of work that will say "Hi, how are you?" to someone just to laugh at their awkwardness.

skybluesky Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Don't sweat this one Tim. If she speaks to you again, she's interested in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 You might not even like her, it might just be awkwardness brought on by intimidation. I get that way when I meet excessively clever/funny people. Takes me a while to regain my footing. They don't seem to notice, though, or cut me the necessary slack if they do.

RonJonSurfer Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Next time you see her, mumble again. She'll probably think this is normal for you and will start feeling sorry for you...once she feels sorry, you're in.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyRaccoon Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Next time you see her, mumble again.

Steel2Velvet Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Girl's giggle = Boy's mumble. She probably said to herself as she walked away, "I can't believe all I could do is giggle. I should have been more verbose." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Hmmm maybe. This stuff would be a lot less frustrating if people could just be obvious about their intentions, myself included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyRaccoon Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 I read a book once that said the best way to get a girl is to drug her and then drag her to a lonely shack. Who wrote that book? Something...Bundy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLizard Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Sounds like a plan. If she laughs THEN, I definitely have a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Sounds like a plan. If she laughs THEN, I definitely have a problem. In 'How I met your mother' they once showed the "naked man" seducing technique, which apparently works two out of three times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
