Shepard2be, thanks for the uplift...and I envy you!

Never had a professional manicure or pedicure. The pedicure alone would require an angle-grinder and much persistence. I have rough feet, and am happy with them the way they are. As for my hands, I work with them everyday, and there are some callouses that I need...I don't really have rough hands, just well-protected.

No worries Tristan, Friday will be here before you know it. I have to take advantage of these Magic Mondays whenever I can. They don't come around too often. I'll lift a pint for you.

At the time I was in agreement with your opinion on the pedicure. Noting that the salon had few power tools at hand and not a 220v outlet in sight I held back.
Although my buddy had something akin to hobbit feet and they still managed to find a ginzu blade that took care of everything. They can handle anything short of hooves evidently. I will have to try it out next time.

Thought the outfit gave it away

Wow...maybe I will have to try out a pedicure, then. Sounds interestin'.

JSUSAGI (my wife) asked a question that I sorta overlooked..."What do guys see in females". I am sure this has been answered before, but I'll go ahead and start...I don't think she has the two days it would require to dig through all the other threads.
The first thing I try to look at are the eyes. They tell alot about the person inside. After that, personality...and it is important that one is present...does not have to match mine. Sense of humour, positive outlook on life, open mind, and joy of life are all things I look for.
As far as the physical, I think the general consensus so far is that most of the males here do not like stick figures...or society's version of a beautiful woman. We can all appreciate them, but a real, genuine, human woman is preferred. To answer the wife directly, you do not have too much around the middle, your butt is absolutely wonderful, I love your boobs just the way they are, and your face is beautiful, unmarred by the slightest blemish. You are what I have been looking for as a partner, because you have all of the above-mentioned qualities and more. (I know, fellow posters, enter sappy music here )
Alright, that was my two cents .

I tend to abandon things like 'surfer' and 'rocker' and just stick to defining by 'clean' or 'skanky'

Skanky hair, no. I can't even touch anyone with unwashed hair. (working in a museum that seems to attract hoards of unwashed miscreants has made me a little oversensitive to dirty things) (I feel justified though, since I started leaving handwipes every where and got some anti-bac soap in the washrooms the colds that were plaguing me have eased of)

Sorry, no I hate long hair when they just don't look after it, when it was badly cut 7 years ago and hardly washed and rarely even brushed, its horrible.

Generally im not a fan of long hair though. Sometimes I don't mind it, I know a few guys with great hair and they suit it long, but basically, the only reason i like long hair is because I think guys look so much improved when they cut it shorter.

Not short short. I hate buzz cuts, but any where between say, Alan Tudyk and Sawyer from Lost gets my vote. (basically, enough to run your fingers through, but still gromed or styled)

Which brings me onto nails I suppose.

I don't know, I've never had a manicure pedicure, facial blah blah blah, (I 've never been baught flowers or sent and valentines card either (boo hoo, woe is me.)with having a nail biting problem, (I stopped several times before and started chewing the skin on my lips and the inside of my cheek, the nails are the least unsightly (and bloody!) of the three) and a budget that is often operating in the negatives, its just not something I know about.

But just on the idea of it, i'm not adverse. If a guy wants to do it, then yeah, fine, nicer hands and feet.

The only thing I don't like about things like this is when they have more bathroom products and take longer to do their hair or whatever, than me my sister and my mother combined. I also am not interested in talking about things like that (oh, you should go see so and so at such and such, she did marvellous things with my hang nails and did you know blah blah blah) that sort of thing is about as much fun as talking about calories.

So, yes, go if you want, but don't let it turn you into an idiot.

Look back to the BDM: Serenity sails through the clouds spinning out of control. breaking apart. Suddenly the free lumber rains down and Serenity is one pilot short. That's what happened to the weekend. Question: If the woman you are activly persuing walks in to the bar where you are shooting pool and does not acknowledge your presence, full well knowing that you are there, is that a bad sign? Even if she is with the rebound guy that she supposedly dumped, is it strange that my feelings have not changed? And, last question. Should I have left stormed out of the bar like an angry child or was it okay to stay and maintain? They left shortly after arriving so it wasn't too difficult to stay. Thanhs BROWNCOATS. Your support helped me get this far. I ain't crawling yet, but I do need a hand.

I have never had a manicure or a pedicure. I don't like the whole idea of paying somebody to do what I can do myself for free. Plus, I don't really like the feel of nail files. It gives me the whole fingernails on he chalkboard feeling. Sounds pretty weird huh? I do keep my nails trimmed for the most part. My hands are fairly soft, but they do have some protection like Tristan talked about.

Simon: What if he(Mal) tells you to kill me?
Zoe: (without hesitation) I kill you.

Phoenix- I personally do wear make-up and try to keep it natural, but for me it's entertainmnet and just about the only form of art I can participate it. I cannot draw, paint, etc and it's fun to paint my face..mind I am a pro ( I put myself through college as a professional make-up artist for movies and tv) but my specialty is horror make-up. Even so I still like to use make-up but I think any make-up that screams I am wearing make-up is a bad bad thing.

Seryn- Try fake nails ( not the icky you can tell they are fake acrylic, but the fiberglass look so real no one knows) I am a nail biter and fake nails have totally cured that. Also you ought to try demeter.com if you aren't a scent person. I hate most floral and musk perfumes but demeter has one not perfumes like cucumber, honey, sugar cane, and many more that are nice to wear because you enjoy the smell not as an attractant:)

NV- Well my vote is we women here grab the witch, give her a buzz cut and dump her in the middle of a sporting arena for being mean to you...or we could die her hair a horrible shade and I can use my wiles to make her look like the witch she is..She's obviously not good enough for you
You're only young once, but you can be immature any time!

NV - this is the goddess??

B**ch!! I say pull a Buffy and do a double flip over the pool table and stake her!!

OK, anyway, yikes and ouch! If I was more techno savvy I would have a cool emoticon thingy holding a hand out for you...

Well, it's not a good thing. I think you handled it correctly, though...as long as you didn't pay too much attention to her (watching her, etc). You don't want to be the lovesick puppy.

IMO, storming out would've made you seem like a petulant child.

Question for you: How upfront are you about your pursuit? As old and cliched as it is: Women (and men) like a challenge (don't they? Maybe that's another question for the group). If she knows she's already got you, there's no reason to try and catch you. Maybe take a step back for a bit. Make sure you are still living your life, not just waiting for her to come to her senses.

MSG: I'm envious. I don't wear much make-up, but only because I am sooo uncomfortable with it. And, I don't like having to worry about getting stuff on my shirt collars. Blech! I currently only wear eyeliner and mascara but would love to feel more comfortable getting dolled up. Doing make-up well takes mad skillz...and I just don't have that going for me.

So where are y'all posting pictures of yourselves? Being new to the board, I'm dying to know what y'all look like. And who doesn't love a good wedding picture.

Ghostrider, I agree with Rugbug. You did the right thing.

I wouldn't let it beat you down just yet. It's a small bump, see what the rest of the road brings before taking the off-ramp.
