Alright, well I met this girl like 3 months ago, shes super nice looking, shes interesting, and she is simply in my best interest currently. I feel totally normal talking to her, like relaxed and stuff, never nervous, never shy. We have been through a lot, and we have shareed things we havent shared with our friends, and we are closer then to jsut stop talking even if we do break up. I'm not exactly looking for a wife, as some would say, I just want a happy relationship that keeps on going. Then again she is different from some girls I have dated before.

Anyways let me tell you a little about her, her names Megan, she loves football, like shes thoughtful and cute and funny sometimes, at the same time she'd listen to rock and stuff, and like breakdancing, one of those open minded girls, having unique likings. I already proved I liked her, she told me she does too, and we have like shared lots.. :D.

So I was just wondering, since this is one of my more deeper relationships in college, if you guys can give me some advice maybe, what to talk about with her etc. I have some restrictions as I don't want to rush anything, nor do I only want sex and those sick desires we have, that is way back in my interest for her, and I just want normal topics we can chat about and maybe some advice you guys can give me.

So far we have talked about almost everything about each others' families, hobbies, foods, sports, friends, and past lives, I'm looking for more interesting topics what you can come up with.

Thanks anyways -(Xapphire)

It has been stated before, we are not a self help forum.

Also,

Talk about random stuff if you think that wont be a turn off.

No one likes to talk aboutserious stuff all the time! Ask her if she likes chickens when they wear top hats. And what exactly is stopping them from wearing top hats? Why dont thy have arms?

If shes funny she probably wont give serious answers and you can just continue on laughing talknig about random stuff.

Its like the ask a stupid question get a stupid answer thread.

Except in real life.

And It gets you girls.

If you're comfortable around each other, just talk about any random thing that comes to mind really.

I hate being plain, I'd just be like I'm bored or something, or we'd like just keep going on and on about something, and I'm positive its boring her. Thanks for all the comments btw!

Be yourself is all that you can do...

Best advice on this thread.

Trust me, if you jump out as a person who you think is great and sparkly, you'll end up wanting to change back to your old self once the relationship hits that five month mark. You may even crash before that. But the funny thing is, once you show your true self to that girl, she won't turn away... unless she doesn't really love you. Hey, what do I know? I'm just in highschool. :rolleyes:

Be yourself. Not a hunky sex god, nice romantic guy, nor an intellectual lawyer dude. Be who you are, and she'll accept you if there really is a connection.

I hope things turn out well for you.

Personally I think that "be yourself" is extremely bad advice, although it does continually crop up in these conversations. Observe normal and healthy social interaction - you will notice that people are anything but themselves.

Internally, human beings experience a wide range of thoughts and emotions that would never be expressed in a social context. Not only that, but to guarantee social cohesion people must frequently pretend to (explicitly or otherwise) feel, accept or agree with things that they might otherwise not. Since this process is mostly natural and subconscious, there isn't much you can do about it anyway.

Oh man, But I am a intellectual lawyer dude.. :( its my major..

I know. What I meant is not to act like the only thing you are is an intellectual lawyer. You're still a person despite your career or aspiration. My girlfriend doesn't read a story I write, and she'll never discuss a story with me. She's not interested in who I want to become or what I want to do as a career. She just enjoys being with me - not the writer, poet, musician, or actor.

That, or I'm totally deluded into a plot from the "Mean Girl" movie. Eh, it's best not to worry so much. I'm happy right now. :p

Oh, I guess that's where our personalities separate. I enjoy things to be mellow, but I have little drama fits sometimes.

Anyhow, I think all my "advice" has been spent here. I wish you luck with your college dating.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
