"I'm frustrated" is an understatement

[SagabaL]

Im frustrated is an under statement

Ive not posted much here on pex but have been lurking for some time. I do enjoy lurking here more than posting, for the simple reason that if I do post here, I know myself well enough that most often than not, I’ll just be bragging and project a cyber image of someone Im not. Buti pa kayo, most of you sound cool, intelligent and very knowledgeable in the affairs of the heart.

Ako, eto, frustrated. Gusto kung maki sali sa threads but I think my replies would just be to selectively rebuff, disagree, condescend… I know I’ll get a kick reading my own replies but deep down, I’ll feel that my posts will only be self-serving and means nothing to me in return. I’ll still feel empty inside, and all the while, wondering of whether I can connect with someone I’m compatible with here at pex. I know, I should use the dating sites right? Well, I have. I don’t think those site is for me. Aside from brief member profiles, there’s not much insight I can fish out from members. Here at pex, with my lurking and reading your posts, I can sort of ‘tell’ who are the interesting ones. The challenge is to take the risk and initiate contact with that person. BUT we all know it is more risky than it is proper. Besides, is there a decent and ‘right’ way to approach ‘you’?

I wonder if some of you are frustrated and feel the same way about this?

nope... i just write whatever comes to mind. Impulse reactions. I think of PEX as a good venue to talk about things or learn stuff that would otherwise be a boring subject matter with friends.

and... regarding your "i can sort of tell who are interesting" here in pex... don't believe everything you see here.

hahahahahaa....


I have to agree with my evil twin sister here... right, sis? Just go back to those dating site if you are really looking for someone sincere. Medyo delikado minsan sa PEX.. But, you have come to the right forum - The Principles, Practices and Preferences Forum... Just browse through the topic about MEN, polygamous, Alimony....anything about a man's trait. you'll get a good image of some male Pexers in here.....

...i've learned a lot...it's what you learn that's important.

...kung pwede nga sana I should have joined Pex before I got into my first relationship since I know some practical stuff re: love...

...pero ayun...kaput...late ako naka-join...sana I could have prepared myself for the inevitable...

...a big deal will depend on your diskarte sa buhay: pick out helpful points for you...dito sa Pex bukas tayo sa lahat...and the learning is fun also!

...so start Pexing...

[purpleheadd07]

aww, don't take things too seriously here. most of the people are indeed just projecting some images which are not really true. it's hard to know who's real and not unless you meet them yourself.

but try hanging around here some more na may baon na madaming sense of humor and open mindedness. you can't believe how good people are at pretending eh.

i agree.
you will get frustrated ONLY if you exert effort that much.

just take your time and enjoy the journey, cliche as it may sound.
personally, i like the way i get to have a glimpse of other people's thoughts....and learn as much as i could, just as they get an insight of what i think.

having dated all kinds of men in all kinds of forums, there comes a time when "dating" ceases to become a priority, and a goal.
and it shouldn't be.
because if you make it so, then yes, you would get frustrated cos as mentioned, a person can project a totally different persona online.

[starry_night]

i dunno, i don't go into forums to look for dates. madami kasi they just look for __ partners, i'm into the real thing . i just read and post comments. it keeps me updated

[angel_by_day]

and as to the condescend-and-rebuff part, well...if you would feel that strong towards a post (and the poster), so much that you would wholeheartedly disagree, you may of course.

you are entitled to speak your mind out. precisely why there are forums.
not so much to belittle nor insult anyone, but to express your thoughts in more ways than one.

and besides, no one would be all-knowing and THAT knowledgeable when it comes to love.
i'd like to think that the supposedly-smart posts that you've read were just taken from others' genuine, heart-warming, lesson-filled experiences that they have weathered.

Hi, SagabaL! First of all, it's good that you finally came out of the shadows as a lurker and posted our thoughts. Your opinions are always welcome here. They don't have to be absolutely right or wrong since it's just a written expression of your thought process. Some will agree with you, while others may not. But, hey, that's why we have a forum for discussion. So enjoy ka lang sa pag post and get to know a lot of fellow PExers. That's a good way to handle the frustrations/stresses from the daily grind of real life.

If you want to initiate contact with any PExer, you can easily do it by PM (private messaging), but be careful not to get too emotionally involved until you actually meet that person and get to know him better.

People here for the most part are fun, funny, friendly and helpful. And there are those that have tunnel visions, the ones with the one track mind. They are what I call the Specialists . At the end of the day, this is just another message board most people gravitate to to get by their mundane daily routine. So dont be shy about posting. Have fun. If you are still apprehensive, you can PM your prospect and hopefully you 2 would end up SMSing each other. Take it from there.

Im a guy sorry. Based on my thread and my avatar, I understand why some people mistakenly thought I was a girl. Yes I'm a guy, it says right there in my profile.

I was interested to see people's reactions and thoughts on the issue and learn something as well.. Thanks for your inputs.
