(FROM THE U OF I CYBER 175:)

(INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS) RESPONSE 6 05/06 23:04 BY BOMBER

         SWELL, BUT THAT DOESN'T  ANSWER THE BLOODY QUESTION.
SO WHERE DO I MEET THESE GIRLS?
         ANYWAY, THIS PUTS ME IN A WONDERFUL POSITION. IT SEEMS
THAT I HAVE A TALENT FOR SCARING OFF WOMEN. I'LL MOVE TOO FAST,
OR I'LL BACK OFF ONLY TO LOSE HER ALTOGETHER. SOMETIMES I CAN
MUSTER ENOUGH COURAGE (OR GET DRUNK ENOUGH) TO TAKE THE OUTGOING
APPROACH, BUT THAT USUALLY DOESN'T WORK. BUT SITTING AROUND RESULTS
IN SITTING ALONE.
         A PROBLEM OF EXTREMES, I GUESS. MAYBE I TRY TOO HARD. I
USUALLY DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH CONVERSATION, IF I CAN FIND
OUT WHAT THE "AUDIENCE" IS INTERESTED IN. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING
PAST HELLO. (A BIG PROBLEM FOR SOME OF US)
         WELL, AS MY H.S. CHEM TEACHER ALWAYS TOLD ME, "NO GUTS,
NO GLORY," AND THE ONLY ANSWER I HAVE IS TO KEEP TRYING. BUT
I AM OPEN TO SUGESTIONS.
