so you think saying that my quote was very poor wording wasn't a put down???

Hmmm lucky your not socially demanding, you seem to be a bit uptight and condescending.

No, because it doesn't mention you as a person.
Are you one of those people that gets offended if somebody critiques your writing?

I am the most uptight person in the world, you've got me nailed.

Condescending...perhaps, but that's only because I don't really care about any of this.

No I get upset when someone comes OUT OF THE BLUE flinging insults when there wasn't a need for it in the first place.
And you don't have to PUT a name on it in order for it to be a put down..I think we can all figure out you were talking about my post.

Saying something someone says is "poor wording" is an insult?

Women can be oversensitive too often, that's a major problem in most relationships.

Ahhhh, the infamous "WHATEVER" argument. An attempt to kill the argument without conceding defeat and maintaining some dignity. Unfortunately it fails as it brings up the mental image of a valley-girl raising her palm and proclaiming, "Pshaw, whateva!".

quote: Originally posted by Cairo_East So here's my issue: I just had a date with a girl who was attractive, seemingly normal, and intelligent. Everything was going fine until I mentioned that "Interview With the Vampire" was on TV at the pizza place we had just entered. We then started to discuss really long movies. I, like any normal human being, said that I thought "The Postman" (Kevin Costner version, not the Italian version) was one of the longest and worst movies of all time. She got really uptight and said that it was her favorite movie! I got a little snide and asked her if she liked the first eight hours or the last, and she really didn't respond. I feel a bit like Jerry Seinfeld now with this girl-she's seems all right, except for this one bizarre flaw. I'm honestly considering whether I should continue a relationship with a girl who lists "The Postman" as her favorite movie. "The Postman"! Can I really be that shallow??? Isn't this indicative of her tastes? Does this mean we are incompatible? I also joked to her that Kevin Coster and she were the only two people on the planet that liked that movie. I think I went a bit too far with that one, but maybe she just took it as the total joke that it was. Then again, I'd probably be a little irritated if someone made cracks about "Gandhi" (my fave movie). What should I do?

Sounds like me and my current GF. I moved 1800 miles to be with her and found out that she doesn't like the Marx Brothers! Who cares? We both like Abbot and Costello!



The point is forget about the differences, accentuate what you have in common. Either that or just forget about it. Life's too short to sweat the small stuff, and it's ALL small stuff.

Listen to Blackwidow, man. Drake is out to lunch. If you're already annoyed by her, AFTER ONLY ONE DATE!!!, there is something going on that the movie thing is just a symptom of. Walk away. If a person is going to be worth your time she/he has got to be able to make it through the first date without you thinking "WTF?"

Nah, PH was a chick flick. He's not going to scare her off by pretending to like it; probably just the opposite. Freddy, on the other hand, is seriously gross; any woman who isn't repelled by it has major mental health issues.

If she gets annoyed because you have a different opinion with regards to her favourite movie, she has a serious problem and you should avoid her like the plague.

I think the problem was him mocking her after he found out that was her favourite movie.

If you do want to have a relationship with her, give her a little respect. At least find out the reasons she likes the movie before judging her insane.

ohh come on Drake..it's not the fact that everyone is NOT perfect..It has to do with the fact that that one little thing annoyed him so much he had to POST it on Apolyton for our advice. SOmething so extreme needs to be dealt with accordingly. I still say GET RID OF HER. He knows he isn't perfect but if that one thing bothers him so much then he needs to move on..OH AND FREDDY GOT FINGERED WAS AND PROBABLY WILL ALAWAYS BE THE WORST MOVIE EVER MADE!!!!

All I'm trying to point out is that its pretty damn shallow. From a shallow, closed mind.
