CarDude2015 Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Okay, lately I've been told by women in my life (relationship wise) that they "Are not good with new things..." or "Do not do new things well" or "Have a hard time getting used to new things" and other phrases to that effect when we first talk or first meet. What the heck does this phrase mean?
Jilly Bean Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 I have no idea. What kind of questions are you asking them to get this answer? "I need to date a woman who is open to new things. This could mean having you bang my friends while I take pics, or locking you in the basement while I watch football, kind of new things. Would you say you are open to new things?" If it's going like that, I get the problem.
Author CarDude2015 Posted August 23, 2008 Author Posted August 23, 2008 That's the weirdest thing. We'd just be having normal great conversations (for example favorite movies, tv shows, etc.) and that remark will just come up out of the blue from the lady. We're not even talking about anything related to dating or sex or anything like that.
Jilly Bean Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Then you MUST be saying something that makes everyone say this. These are not phrases that pass from my lips unless I am backed against a wall. Do you talk excitedly about sky-diving, or other dangerous activities?
Author CarDude2015 Posted August 23, 2008 Author Posted August 23, 2008 Nope...no dangerous activities. Probably the only thing I can think of is I tend to be an animated conversationalist. No obscene gestures or anything like that - just very energetic conversation-wise.
Jilly Bean Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 They must be getting the impression you are a daredevil or reckless in some way...
Author CarDude2015 Posted August 23, 2008 Author Posted August 23, 2008 Daredevil or reckless?! That's certainly a new one. I've always been one to observe speed limits...never been in trouble with the law...never participate in dangerous activities...etc. Plus my conversations are always clean - I'm not one to use foul or lewd language ever in conversations.
Author CarDude2015 Posted August 23, 2008 Author Posted August 23, 2008 It's certainly perplexing. :confused: :confused:
nopainnogain Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Anyone else have any ideas? shes insinuating that she is bored and wants to try other penis. seriously,im sorry to say .
The Collector Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 I don't see how it can just come out of the blue. You are talking about the weather, pop music, ethnic cleansing, whatever, and this phrase regularly pops up? Are you targeting senior citizens?
Walk Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 You must have an example? Maybe if you think back you can remember a snippet of the conversation just before the last one said this. Where were you at when you had the conversation? What were you two discussing? Were you eating at the time? Just think back and try to remember what you were talking about right before she said it. Just curious, but what did you say after she said it?
Author CarDude2015 Posted August 24, 2008 Author Posted August 24, 2008 One thing I remembered. The weirdest thing is that that phrase is from women who seem to like me in one way or another - not from women who have no intentions of dating me or talking to me - and it's always during our first couple of conversations. During one of the more recent times I've called a lady I'm seeing who said that phrase she said right off the bat "I'm busy and I normally wouldn't but I picked up because I saw it was you..." The "not doing well with new things" phrase seems to be during our most light hearted fun conversations, where we're not talking about anything important. We might be talking about our favorite TV shows or something else in general, and it may come up. The latest one and I have so many things in common it's scary, and we were discussing stuff like that (such as our favorite movies and TV shows) when that phrase pops up. The way this phrase randomly pops up is little perplexing.
