Melody Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Well, the first thing you're going to need to do to figure out WHY you feel so shy around him. Are you shy because of him or because of the situation? Is it the man himself, or the commitment involved in dating him? One possible explanation is that if you guys have a stable friendship at the moment then your shyness might be because of that. Other guys, the ones you don't know very well, the relationships with them are not as real as one with this guy would be. So it may very well be that you're afraid that if you two date and break up, it will hurt worse than any other break-up you've been through. There are a couple of other things that might be causing your shyness, but you're the one who is going to have to find out exactly what it is. Once you figure it out then it's a simple matter to overcome it. I'm shy being around him, especially in public. But it doesn't have to do with him I'm just scared about what people will think. In my hometown I have a lot of people that know me, so I guess I'm really shy about what they might think. I don't know how to explain it to him without hurting his feelings. It's more me then him when it comes to being shy, he's really out-going so he doesn't quite understand. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Director Posted September 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Given the fact that we are technically looking back in time when looking at the sun (or any light in space for that matter), We are seeing roughly 8 minutes into the past looking at the sun, if we had a telescope strong enough to look far enough away to equal 13.8 billion years in the past, couldn't we technically see the Big Bang occur? And if so what do you think would happen to religion in general? Theoretically, yes. However in practice we've been finding that it's extremely difficult to see galaxies that are that far away. And that's galaxies, not individual stars. If we did actually see it though, I doubt much would happen with religion. They'll simply start saying that god created the universe with the big bang. I'm shy being around him, especially in public. But it doesn't have to do with him I'm just scared about what people will think.

Melody Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 Why would people think of you in a negative way if you were to date him? They wouldn't I think.. It's kinda complicated because I was raised differently than him and my family wants me to find a guy who meets their standards, as silly as it sounds I'm embarrassed to confront my family about it because I have a feeling of how they are going to react. My parents were always over protective so this is just another thing they have against me dating someone who I like. The whole public thing ties into the situation because some of the people who know me are also my parents friends who would likely tell my mother that I'm dating someone. Not saying I rely on my parents permission because I'm grown, but it's a feeling that I'm uneasy with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying I rely on my parents permission because I'm grown, but it's a feeling that I'm uneasy with. That's understandable. Well, there's no need to have a confrontation if one can be avoided. I suggest sitting down with your parents and discussing it with them. Be clear in your feelings on the matter and don't leave anything unsaid. Tell them what you like about him, what they might not like about him, and then ask them what they think. Meaning ask their opinions, not their permission. They may surprise you, but even if they don't it simplifies the matter. If they say they're fine with it, then it's all fine and dandy. If they say they're not okay with it, then you no longer have to just go off of a feeling you have about what they may think. At that point, it's then a black or white decision rather than some murky grays. You can either tell them that, while you value their opinion (which you have just demonstrated), you have decided to date this guy regardless of how they feel on the matter and that you hope that they are able to change their mind about him in the future, or you can simply give up on dating him. The latter of which is obviously the easy choice, but the former may be worth the extra effort. It's likely going to be difficult, but it is doable. All you gotta do is ask yourself if it's worth it or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Intel Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 Are only covalent compounds called molecules? Apparently ionic ones aren't, not sure about metallic ones. E.g. There are H2O molecules, but no such thing as MgO molecules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are H2O molecules, but no such thing as MgO molecules. It's a nomenclature thing. Molecular compounds contain two or more nonmetals (not the ammonium ion). Is an electrophile the same as a cation, and a nucleophile the same as an anion? In short, yes. Would you rather fight 100 duck sized horses or 1 horse sized duck? Ducks are squishy sized, and horses have to bend awkwardly to bite. And a kick from a duck-sized horse wouldn't be so bad. So I'm going with the duck sized horses. Are you a fan of Club Penguin? Nope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Director Posted September 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 Best time to wear a striped sweater? Depends on whether the stripes are vertical or horizontal. Also depends upon your body type. The most common time it's not frowned upon to wear a sweater that has stripes is generally during the autumn and winter holidays that families typically spend together. For example, Christmas.

The Director Posted September 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 How many pets do you have? (If any what kind of animals are they?) One, he's a mixed breed of Pomeranian and Chihuahua. He's got the build of a Chihuahua and the fuzziness of a Pomeranian. He also doesn't bark very much. His name is Scotch, which is funny because my wife's name is Brandy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself, I wake up and check the site for reports and bots, check the chats, and then start playing ESO or whatever game I'm into at the time. Then I check in periodically to make sure that everything's alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
