    How can I judge someone's character when I don't know them? Explain please? I once said that a man I know had divorced his wife on the down low and married someone else. 6 months later I found out I was right !!


    Confirmation bias is the explanation.

    This thread was interesting up to a point. Then you made clear that you have some kind of supernatural sixth sense which allows you to understand people and events.... Why on earth come and ask us normal people for advice then? We don't have your super power of perception.

    I had a similar power when I was 20 and in uni. I was smarter than everyone around me but I lost it at about the same time as I learned my arse from my elbow.

    Yes it's confirmation bias. It happens to us all

    I haven't commented on your mental health so I defer to you on that.

    Probably the first genuinely clever decision you've made on this thread

    You talk as if I'm beneath you and you act like I'm dumb

    FYI I was being sarcastic when I said I was crazy

    What is the point of you posting this thread? You fancy your lecturer, you want to sleep with him, and when people suggest it's a bad idea/not necessarily going to happen you get all defensive.

    What exactly is the personal issue you want help with? Or do you just want people to say "Ah go on, shag him, be grand"?

    Well, this has been entertaining.

    OP definitely naive and arrogant.

    How wonderfull to be so attractive and have guys fall all over you. Being able to read their minds and then pick and choose is a big plus too.

    And for those who didn't pay attention I have mentioned that he will not be my lecturer this year at all

    And to be honest I don't understand why any lecturer/student relationships would be frowned upon if the lecturer wasn't grading any of the student's paper. To say that two people cannot fall in love accidentally because of fear of rumours and public perception is ridiculous. Any two adults can come into a situation where they find each other falling in love. Why should it be a conflict of interest if the student isn't in the lecturers classes ?

    You said just sex, not love, love.

    I'm not being arrogant people asked if I wasn't able to get the D from anywhere else and I said I could :)

    Even if I was arrogant and naive. I'd rather that than to be a dickhead :)

    It might raise the question of when it began.

    actually what I want is a sexual relationship. But as many have pointed out ANY lecturer/student relationship is under scrutiny. Obviously a relationship based only on sex would be twice as bad

    Mod:

    OP, you've gotten advice on your original question and there is not much more that can be said. I'm closing this because its veering wildly off topic and not much of a thread can be had when you are deleting all your posts.

    All the best.
