Oh, wow. This place looks great. Oh, I feel like a witch in a magic shop.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Rut row. Long line. Rumored sold out. Didn't buy tickets ahead of time.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Bugger. Good luck, Omnis!

Compassionately intolerant

For instance, if I *really* like the person, I have a hard time flirting, because OMG, what if I screw it up, come on too strong, or say the wrong thing, and then they won't like me?!?

I'm the opposite. (which is a rarity when it comes too you and me Tep!) I think I sometimes dare the other person to take me as I am, by coming on much too strong. Then, when they ease away cautiously, I feel as if I've dodged a bullet.

I used to be a real pursuer, trying to convince a potential of all my great qualities. Or, per the rescuer fetish, why they needed me. Now, I really, really want to find someone who just wants me...rather than needs. Or, I'll take what's behind the empty curtain.

I am home. The event was over capacity. I waited in the 98°f hot sun for 35 minutes. I tried to break free from my shy shackles and go to an event solo. Cest la vie, right? Looks like I might be joining some friends for roller derby tonight. Ya think I should wear the snog shirt?

StuntHusband: Very, very me. So much so that I asked my mom (the psych-nurse) if I were anywhere on the Asperger's spectrum.

She said no, they'd had me evaluated as a child, and I was just a clueless asshole sometimes. (THANKS MOM)

If I had ever become a mom, I hope I'd have been like SH's mom. Love this.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

What's the worst that could happen?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Speaking as a flirt, I feel like flirting is at its most fun when the flirting is the end in itself.

Definitely. Find out where their after-party is (there will be one, guaranteed) and wear it there.

My brain doesn't even cycle through this stuff. When I'm in proximity to someone I really really like my brain just sits there like a goldfish. If it's just a friend I can flirt like Mae West.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have never dated anyone. I had one boyfriend in high school, then met DH the first night of freshman year in college. And had I not met DH the way I did, I would almost certainly be living a solo life of extreme hermitude alone with my laptop because I am WOEFULLY unsocialized. (To the point where identifying with Willow was impossible because she had TOO MANY FRIENDS. Anya, I got right away.)
