Omnis--I would venture to guess that most women don't want to hear that you are attracted to them because they fit a "type." Nothing wrong with having a type, of course, but hearing that is the reason you are attracted is somewhat depersonalizing. I am sure you didn't mean that, but I thought I would mention it for future reference.
Ha, ya, ok, the way I wrote it, i could see that. No, I'm not THAT inept. "hi, I love you cuz your ___ is so ___, will you go out with me?" No, not what I did. I'm not that bad. It happened a few times in those "I am ugly, how can you love me" moments, where I would try and reassure her of why she ISN"T ugly. And then she would be like "you like what? you are a freak" which I always found strange. Why push someone away who finds you attractive? I dunno. Maybe I'm not explaining it right. It was also late teens/early 20's time. Haven't had that issue so much as an adult.
You guys, my mom just tried to add me on Facebook.
Your mother is on Facebook? Is she stalking you? Looking for a community of potential brides to hook you up to--or to make sure you're not looking in the wrong areas?
I think she just joined because it seemed like the thing to do. My cousin got on a month ago to see what the big deal was, too.
I anticipate your mother's indoctrination into the world of social computing with great interest.

this
is why I don't have a Facebook account.
Normally I find it mildly amusing when peoples' moms are on Facebook.
P-C's mom? Hell no. Run away, dude! Run away!!!!

Susan, I'm so sorry. But I'm glad that you have the comfort and joy of Annabel and D., and that despite your mom's tough situation, you still get enjoyment out of the little everyday things, like the library (and I totally LOVE that you get such nerdy joy from the library, BTW).
So who is the best gay in history?
I nominate Oscar Wilde.
Alexander the Great.
I would've picked Alexander on account of all that greatness but to the best of my knowledge Oscar Wilde didn't kill anybody.
