Too Shy to PM?

[Dietrich K.]

Are you too shy to ever send someone else a PM?

I think I am.

 

[Secret Pleasure]

Sometimes.

 

[Angel]

Me? Shy?

heh.

 

[perks]

not the first one.

 

[Nora]

Dietrick, that's just silly. You'll show your schlong but you won't PM someone?

 

[Guest]

No.

But I can't PM SINthesist.

 

[Dietrich K.]

Dietrick, that's just silly. You'll show your schlong but you won't PM someone?

Yeah, it's weird isn't it? I had that as my av because ... well, I dunno. It seemed less personal when I was showing it to everybody. But PMing someone seems to be more of a personal relationship which I think I've always been a little afraid of.

I'm not to shy just don't the right time?

Well, the joys of desensitization, dude. Jump in. Pick-a-chick/guy and PM 'em.

I show my tits and ass, but I won't PM a stranger.

Psychoanalyzing Dietrich K.

Oh right.... Like it's THAT easy.

Yeah, seriously. You have to get over that whole "fear of rejection" thing.

I'm a pretty shy person, but I don't have any trouble with PMing someone if I have something to say, but it's not applicable on the GB. I'd never show my ass though.

 

[Nora]

Dearest Max and Freya,

It *IS* that easy! lol What's the worst that could happen? They send you a nasty PM back? Well, then they're dumbasses, right? No skin off your nose if they're that stoopid.

If they don't respond at all, then nothing gained, nothing lost.

The chances of either of those responses to a RATIONAL pm from an established poster are slim to none, anyway.

Besides, Freya, how the heck do you expect someone to move from the "stranger" category into the "acquaintance" category if you don't take a step?

Dietrich, nobody's going to reject you. Anyone you'd PM is probably someone you've posted with a bit anyway, right? They wouldn't have come into your thread to begin with and posted nice things to you if they thought you were a bozo worthy of rejection.


Look, the meanest thing I've ever said in a PM to someone was "no thank you, I'm not interested in exchanging dirty stories with you." And I sincerely doubt you'd be as goofy in your PM as that guy was. I'm MEAN and that was the snarkiest response I can recall giving. Well, ok. To be perfectly fair, the dumbass in question kept pushing so I do believe at some point I said, "Which part of "no" are you not grasping here?" But still...you wouldn't make the mistake that guy did.

 

[Nora]

Isn't there a "Letters" thread for this sort of format?

uh-huh. Aren't you supposed to be out fetching me some bbq, boy? *grins*

I totally agree with you there Dietrich....there's something anonymous about posting pictures for *everyone* to see, but it's different when you want to approach someone on a one on one basis....kinda turn shy, huh?

 

[Guest]

Someone should write a thesis on the subject........

 

[Nora]

Boy??? Do you dare question the age of my Keilbasa?

hahahah! I'm sure it's properly aged and smoked *grins*

Ya know, it occurs to me that I've PM'd with you, Deitrich and Freya for sure. I think also with Perky and BK. And if not with Perky, why the hell not? *grumbles* Now I refuse to believe I made first contact with ALL of you. And I don't think I was mean to any of you...

Yeah ... just looking at your av, I could say here that I'd really like to lick your pussy and have it taken as just flirting, but if I were to PM you with it it would be "Gosh ... he really wants to lick my pussy."

 

[bluespoke]

Could the problem be that schools no longer teach pupils to write letters?

Or is the shyness of puberty extending into adolescence?

 

[Nora]

Uh...and you could also start out with something a little less um...obvious, too. *Grin* Like, "Dear sarapet. I just wanted to tell you how pretty I think your av is." Of course, she probably gets 20 of those a day...
