Dee Man Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I meant eating on the toilet obviously. It saves a lot of tedious walking if you do that. I see. It's just that he'd probably break his teeth on the porcelain and would doubtless end up with severe stomach pain as his body wouldn't be able to digest it. Thanks for clearing that up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banana Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) There's a girl at work I like and the feeling is clearly mutual. However, there's a pretty significant power imbalance and she's also ridiculously religious (although apart from that she's great). Do I a) go for it and risk making work the most awkward place on the planet, attract the ire of my other colleagues and potentially not get any hole for my troubles until marriage (which is not ok, and I'm really not a scumbag either) Or b) take the tried and tested 'don't shit where you eat' option, potentially see the mutual attraction grow and become all depressed and resentful because I don't feel I can go for it. Looking forward to the 'kick her in the pie' response, but genuine advice would be most welcome too! Find out if shagging is on the menu. If not, dont take the piss out of yourself, gtfo. If so, 100% go for it. Get utter bullshit like 'power imbalance' out of your head while you're at it, in terms of it affecting any decision about dating & relationships.

throbber Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I couldn't handle going out with a religious girl at all, Sundays are for drinking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banana Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I'll start off with a simple query.I've been seeing a girl for about 6 weeks but we only ever really see each other at weekends. Should I buy her something for Christmas or is it too soon? I am pretty skint and I'm not even sure if I like her in a "serious" way, but I don't want to come across as a Scrooge-like character. Don't buy anything, but arrange a fun chrimbo evening together instead. If she thinks you're a scrooge, dump immediately and buy yourself something with the money you've saved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The OP Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 On the recent problem, I think I need specificity on what 'power imbalance' means. I don't think it'll assist in giving genuine advice, but I'm feeling nosey. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Skidmarks Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I'll admit to giving the wife foot rubs every day for six months while she was paralysed in the hospital. She tells me that it motivated her to get moving again, as she apparently used to hear the nurses drooling over her attentive husband, and she was worried that I'd start working my way through them No, I didn't believe her either, but it was sweet of her to say. This sounds like a shit made-for-TV film that's on 5 during the day. I'd reckon you were played by Norm from Cheers, BFTD. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redhead81 Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I can't be the only one that wants to know more about this power imbalance. I took it to mean maybe the girl is promoted above him, maybe a manager or something? Or maybe the other way about and he is her manager 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The OP Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I was curious about the power imbalance before it was cool. I reckon she beat him at an arm wrestle. Through the strength of prayer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 She's the gaffer. He wouldn't think it was a problem otherwise. He has to ask himself this. Why would this successful, good looking executive go out with an ambitiousless failure like him? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
