‘Ikkun seemed so sweet and nice . . . ’
H
‘Really? Did you really think so?
F
‘It’s pretty obvious that he’s into you.’
H
‘You think so . . . (blushing)’
F
‘You’re e-mailing every night aren’t you? Sounds good to me. Why don’t you do the boyfriend-girlfriend thing’
H
‘But, but I could have got it wrong . . . Ikkun is kind to everybody . . . ’
F
‘There is absolutely no way that could be it . . .’
And much more . . .
And here exists an ecstatically happy me, glad to see you budding and leaving the lair and another, really sad and lonely ME . . . you get me . . .

sorry, catching up
I was talking to a friend on the phone
And just as I worked myself up to tell her how I felt about her
she sensed something in the air and told me that she ‘wasn’t interested’.
There was a girl at work who I fancied so one day I got up the nerve to talk to her. ‘I’d like to talk to you,’ I said, after which she looked at me like I was a worm and walked off.
I fell for this girl, a friend of a friend who came out to a bar with a bunch of us, I kept it simple and just asked her if she’d like to go out with me.
She replied ‘I’m not sure about the going out bit but why don’t we start out as friends.’ 2 weeks later she told me ‘I don’t think it’s going to work out.’
Then there was this girl at college, we were in the same club, she was younger and seemed to look up to me so one day when we were alone, I asked her to go out with me. She refused saying that she ‘couldn’t see me as a man.’
And that’s the way the cookie crumbles . . . (´A`)

I just realised but Train’s ‘Since I was having dinner with a girl for the first time, I did my research,’ could be interpreted as ‘I dig Hermes’
If he was just being polite it wouldn’t mean dinner and doing his research.
I bet you Lady Hermes has figured it out already.
596 Name: Anonymous Post Date: 04/04/04 22:33
Train’s pretty innocent but
Hermes is not so different herself
Maybe neither of them has figured it out yet

Looks like it’s going to be a while till our next date (week after next) Kick back till then. Don’t know if there’s much to discuss so I’m thinking we should leave it for a bit and I’ll start a thread once there’s progress worth reporting.
What do you think?

I’ll be back to start the thread around the 15th

Thanks for all your amazing work. When I think back it was only a month ago that I thought the 125-person compilation page as a far away and unreachable fantasy land . . . and who would have guessed that I would be featured on a compilation page . . .
Straight up, you never know what’s coming . . .
I’ve been e-mailing with her over the past few days . . . but . . . how can I say this . . . it’s, I guess . . . .what’s commonly known as . . . ‘clicking’ . . . we’re clicking.

Sorry I disappeared without a word yesterday.
I think I just nodded off . . .
By clicking, I mean that we e-mail at least once a day. What we write about . . . well, mostly we talked about films which lead to a discussion about what we believe in then a discussion about romance.
Then she made a comment and I said
‘Not that I would know since I don’t have any experience (laughing uncomfortably)’
‘You must be joking. How could any woman keep her hands off you? (laughing)’
Went something like this.

You lucky dog you . . . . . . . . .
But it looks like Lady Miss Hermes has Train Man up on a pedestal . . . I fear for the slip-ups . . .
But when women say stuff like ‘the ladies must dig you’ or some such thing, it really means sweet FA. I’ve even had women say ‘you’re lying!’ when I mention not really being such a hit with the ladies . . . but basically, no woman has ever come sniffing at my door.

Train Man inspired me so much that I went to the hairdresser for the first time in my life! It’s nice to have a lady play with your hair and massage you and stuff innit. Kinda sexy, no? pant-pant
By the way, how do you recreate the hairdo?

Why don’t you photograph yourself and use some wax and styling gel to recreate it?

Get some magazines and learn how to use the product.
It all depends on the kind of hair you have and your hairstyle, so it’s a bit difficult, but you can do it, dude.

Set-Cut
Blow

Looks like ‘twisting’ is an important action, but what the f@*% does twisting do?
492 Name: Anonymous Post Date: 17/04/04 21:38
Set-Cut:
ability to get the hairstyle you imagined for yourself, being satisfied with it
Blow:
Using a hairdryer to style your hair
Styling:
Shaping your hair
Hair Bunch:
A bunch of your hair
I think . . . sorry if I’m wrong on any of this.
I’m not sure what twisting does . . .
But I reckon it helps style the hair into the shape you want?

If you twist your hair, then the ends kind of stick together then split up in small bunches, going one way or another.
That’s it.
It’s called Easy Hair --- it looks kind of messy but at the same time kind of cool and styled. You’ve seen it on the boys from the in crowd.
Probably, that is . . . .

I was just at the corner shop thinking about getting some stuff before heading home when I spotted a woman asking the assistant for directions.
Being a local, I asked where she was headed and since I knew where it was I walked her over.
Once there, the lady thanked me loads and asked for my name and address but I told her it was only natural to help out someone in need and told her that there was no need for her to thank me and just left.
I know, I know, I’m a pussy . . .

Sorry for being late. Today was a normal work day . . . . . .
Since I was e-mailing her from work, couldn’t get much work done
We’re having dinner tomorrow!

I’m sorry about the misunderstandings . . .
Actually we were squabbling about whether we’d go out tomorrow or the day after. (´▪ω▪`)
157 Name: Train Man ♦ SgHguKHEFY Post Date: 17/04/04 01:12
I guess it wasn’t a squabble but more like her being indecisive.
She kept talking about how she had an early day the next day so . . . that kind of thing.
we also tried to work out where to go for dinner . . .
We hadn’t decided till yesterday where and when we were going to get together.
