    I have some small questions that I would like to ask so if you can help me with them I am grateful.

    if you have a friend who is ugly and they keep asking why they dont have any girls then how is it best to tell them without hurting their feelings?

    if when you are talking to a girl and you would like to kiss her and she says that she has a boyfriend after 5 minutes of talking does that mean she knows and that she is not interested ?

    thanks guys i hope you will help me

    in who's opinion? perhaps he's not ugly, just hasn't made the most of himself,
    suggest a wardrobe change and a haircut or something

    if when you are talking to a girl and you would like to kiss her and she says that she has a boyfriend after 5 minutes of talking does that mean she knows

    does that mean she knows what? :confused:

    and that she is not interested ?

    or
    perhaps she does have a b/f?

    you shouldn't waste your time with a girl who will lie to you in the 1st 5 minutes of meeting her. So she's either taken or is dishonest. Both indicate to keep away;)

    Tell her "Yeah it's great you feel the need to brag about that, but to most people that's normal, so you might not want to brag too much"

    In relation to your first question about the friend who may not be aapprealing to the eye's, I want to ask a question, is this some one who is intereasted in you or an actual friend.

    My opinion on how do you tell someone, plain and simple YOU DONT. If you call yourself a friend then looks are not important. I have never claimed to be a looker and always considered myself very plain, (Gordon can back me up on this) but I always met the right ladies.

    God knows I married the most beautiful woman in the world.

    Just my thought on the matter.

    Sounds like you're the ugly friend?

    You ask about the ugly friend question then go on to say that you get bald-faced rejection basically 5 mins into a conversation... brother *offers huge hug*

    Tell him what ?
    Have you lived at all yet ? Don't you know that some of the best looking girls go out with ugly blokes ? Girls that matter don't give a sh*t what a guy looks like.....

    It means either she's having a short pang of guilt... and you should get back in their with a folow up...or she's telling you you better enjoy it 'cos it's the last one you'll get.
    It's what she does next that matters.....

    Mostly people don't get with other people because of a lack of self esteem leading to a belief that they can't pull, which acutally reinforces the akwardness and lack of self esteem.

    So probably the reason you're not so attractive friend (in your opinion) doesn't get men/women, is because he/she lacks the tenacity and armour to continuously put themselves up, even if they get slapped down.

    Maybe if you had sympathy sex with him/her it would do something for the self esteem?

    Be a friend.

    if when you are talking to a girl and you would like to kiss her and she says that she has a boyfriend after 5 minutes of talking does that mean she knows and that she is not interested ?

    Assuming "talking" entails a courtship routine as opposed to haggeling with a strange girl in a shop for five minutes and attempting to grab her breasts... then, the mentioning of the boyfriend bit is utter parlance.

    If a man/woman girl/boy *is* actually in a comitted relationship thingy, then said person _won't_ end up in a sexaul courtship routine with another person, since the two notions are mutually exclusive, no?

    Ergo, if you find yourself in a sexual courtship situation with another person, who informs you of their relationship with another person, you can take that with a grain of salt and carry on trying to fondle him/her.

    However if such a person has another person standing beside them... perhaps with his/her arm around the other, then attempting to kiss/fondle, might not be the 'best' course of action.

    You could probably write a formula which indicates the level of interest a 'relationship clad' sexual partner has in you, by a) gauging inebreation levels b) couting the number of times said person mentions their relevant other c) gauging the amount of time they devote to you and then extrpoliating a "likely ride" factor.

    Give it a threshold maybe... anything with <= 0.000001% of a chance of a ride... is 'probably' not worth buying her a drink for.

    No?

    Thank you for taking the time to read "out of context hypothesis today".

    We hope you enjoyed your stay.

    Q.1: Answer: NO, do not tell him. he can't change it, so let him live the dream. For all you know he could be doing the same for you.

    Q2.: Answer: Yes, she's not interested.

    These are simple answers that you already knew. Silly Person.
