No… not at all.

Twice.

If we aren't doing it right...do tell us so that we can!!

Fix you right up!

Ezactly what I had in mind. Heck, if I'd write poems in English, it would probably be a good addition, considering the person I have my sights set on.
Only problem is one's acute shyness. Of course, that might be considered a "pro" for the girl, but for me it's a definite "con".

I wouldn't dare plagiarising anything. But your style seems like a good way to get at least started.
And, if I start analyzing myself more carefully, maybe poetry could be my cup of tea.

[Velociryx]

nahhh....'s not plagerising if you got the author's best wishes and permission....

-=Vel=-

[Kassiopeia]

Probably so, but I am not that shrewd/desperate/immoral to use someone else's work of art for that kind of, or by that matter, any kind of selfish purposes.

[Velociryx]

LOL....'k....well, if it serves as possible inspiration then that's just as good....

Only one problem remaining; the fact that I would probably need to permanently wear a helmet like that of Dark Helmet's (see avatar), for both the concealing and voice-altering purposes.

Maybe the outside doth not matter, but it sure as hell gets you well started.

The outside is but the wrapping..the contents of the package is what is important. If you've got your eye on someone..take the chance...it could bring a wealth of happiness...she may just have her eye on you too..remember...we have to overcome the shyness/scared thing...or we risk losing so much more than we know..by not having had it at all.

Good Luck!!

Nawww....don't sell yourself short, bud!

Believe me....I'm not exactly Mr. GQ himself, but ::shrug:: That doesn't matter....

That's what everyone else has been saying. It's just, shall I say, more likely then normally, that she is already taken.
Btw, if a girl is taken, should I forget about it, or stand put and possibly wait for something to happen?
Gwah, 'tis like The Bold and the Beautiful in RL.

Ok, off to sleep now. It's strange how in state of slight sleepiness, one easily makes self swear to do something the following day, but of course the truth is something different.

[Flubber]

but Vel -- aren't you a really tall man-- sometimes being something different than average can work out to attract the opposite sex. Even something way out there that might turn off 90% of people, is a strong attraction for others


I would never say that looks do not matter at all-- to some people they really do . . . But every guy knows they have seen semi-ugly guys with very attractive women. Why ?? because they asked them out and that particular woman was one who was more concerned about personality and intelligence than whether any one would ever think of him as a model.

[Kassiopeia]

Vel, check your PM's.

[pchang]

It's all local

In my neighborhood, the semi ugly guy with the beautiful babe is also very rich (also usually a bit older too).
