Mindsets about Friendship/Exs

[Shangri-laschild]

As for the second question, just came to mind as I was chatting to a work colleague, and while I was talking with her, was 'playing' with her ring (not sure of the significance of it). I do know that in body language circles, sometimes playing with jewellery while looking someone in the eye can be significant.

But then... my best skill in life is mis-reading a sign

I am horrible at reading signals as well

Hey - we should get together.....

[Shangri-laschild]

We can be perpetually confused together

Someone who's friends with myself and J were talking yesterday about the crazy ex. I still don't get how you can date someone (she kept bringing up marriage so she really did consider this a serious, we're going to grow old together thing) and not trust them with someone of the opposite gender. I guess I can't see ever being in that close of a relationship with someone if I didn't trust them about that kind of thing.

I totally agree... (on all the above )

I can't understand how if you're with someone now who you aren't completely happy with, you would want to commit yourself to spending the rest of your life with them - rather than let them go and find someone who does make you happy.

But then - humans like to complicate things.....

I fiddle with my hair, or with my earrings; it drives my boyf nuts. XD No, it doesn't mean anything, cept I probably feel the need to keep my hands busy.

Second, and slightly OT, if a girl is sort of 'playing' with a ring (as in sort of sliding it on and off), what - if any - significance is that? What's running through her head??

I fidget when I'm nervous....

I can't understand how if you're with someone now who you aren't completely happy with, you would want to commit yourself to spending the rest of your life with them - rather than let them go and find someone who does make you happy.

Because they don't want to let you go and you don't want to break them.
Because you fear being alone.
Because you are too lazy.
Etc.
