I agree with this. Everyone goes through different things, depends which path you take and who you meet along the way.

I became the coach of the School's under 14 football team today Very Happy

I have full management control, atm i am told i will have a squad of 20 players that will have to be whittled down to about 16 ish. First tournament will be next week a single elimination event.

Funny thing is though that half my squad will be made out of another school's kids so i don't have much time to get to know the players. Right now i'm thinking about formation and tactics. I'm naturally a competitive guy so i think i might just learn the kids how to park the bus and win on penalties Laughing

Is this your first coaching job with younger kids? I have experience coaching younger kids, and word of advice based on experience, don't park the bus. It may seem as an easy tactic but in reality its not and it requires a whole lot of luck, and long shots are quite common in youth football, so I dont think it would be the wisest way to play. Smile

I dont think you should worry about if there is 1 true love or not. Focus on getting a career, a stable life going for you, then you can handle defeats better, and enjoy all experiences you get with women without being afraid of getting hurt, cause it will happen to everyone. Wink

So i had my first game as a Coach. I thought i was only suppose to coach the boys u/14 team but we had a girls u/13 as well so i filled in at short notice. Our First game was against St. Idas in the Stellenbosch Schools Cup, we lost that game 1-3, St. Idas being deserved winners. Even though the quality of football was atrocious, i thoroughly enjoyed the contest as did the girls.

Unfortunately not all the girls could play, i was only allowed to make 5 subs and my squad numbered around 22. We had early chances in the game 2 in particular that should've been taken. I think the girls did relatively good playing the sport for the first time Laughing

I believe in this Iras, I still cannot erase my 1st ex-gf off my heart and mind..I still talk to her but I'm sure she sees me just a brother more than anything.. I hope one day I could get back to her but it's just so unlikely.. It's almost like wishing Milan sign Messi on a loan deal.

I am quite intrigued by this question as I have not pondered it for quite some time. I would prefer to use the word soulmate as I find that to be a possibility - I find it difficult to buy into the notion that we only have one "true love" - I mean are we even aware of what "love" is? Perhaps I am taking the question too literally, but it is something I cannot help (well, maybe I could, but I have decided not to).

Are you implying that in most cases people do not end up with said person? The only ex girl friend of mine that I still think about actually passed away; so it would be a bit of a downer if she was my soulmate. She had the most delightful sense of humor (the kind that I am a sucker for) and she was the most gentle soul I have ever come across...

It's funny because when I started to compose this post I was going to say that I was unsure about your question, but as I am nearing the end of my thought(s), I am inclined to believe that we all do have that one "special" person and while the chances of "finding" them may be slim, we must keep that positive mindset if we plan on uniting.

I'm sure you consider me as good a friend as not intending to offend you.
But let me tell you, if you actually broke up with that girl (may she be in peace), it's frankly a good thing she's not somewhere out there to provoke you into pondering the possibility of returning to her.

Look, of course I think there is someone, I'm just looking for someone to convince me that's not the case.

I was in love for the first (and probably last) time around two years ago, and the relationship ended last April.
As a result, I lost 6kg and a lot of hair, in addition to a chunk of my mental health, somewhat.

So, she's gone right? Well, not quite.

I might have not seen her for 10 month, but she's up here in my head, every second of every day.
Hers has become a reason why I can't find happiness in any other person.

My sense of humor is intact, I laugh harder than ever at simple things, I have lots of new male and female friends and Cinema and Football still rivet and thrill me, but when it comes to serious stuff and love, I'm nowhere near good, which means I'm not 100% happy overall.

I constantly compare my current girl and the ones before with the "ONE", and what's more, I try to change them, turn them into what I consider "IDEAL", which may be anything but.

Like Alfred Hitchcock's immortal "Vertigo", I just can't seem to let go.

I've written three short film screenplays (and directed one of'em) and all three are about some aspects of my love for her, and I can't help it. It's my goddamn subconscious which creates the main motif and... Whatever.

And worse than anything else, once in a while I try to contact her somehow, which is for some weird reasons impossible. IMPOSSIBLE.

What I'm afraid of is that her memory stays as a haunting one here forever, with nobody really able to fill the gargantuan void left by her in my mind, my heart and my life.

Do you see now, THC 10? If my one and only was dead, I'd cherish the ecstatic moments I experienced with her and all the nice little memories, but as long as she's somewhere out there, I can't live normally.

Come on, do it! Enligten me guys!

I lost 15kg in 2 weeks and I was trough hell, let it go bro if its for you it will comeback I know it hurts a lot ! Whatever we say won't help but time will and will pass, try to change your life. Going to the gym took me out of that hell and helped me get my confidence up and self believe and met new ppl started going out and life changed.

Our first love ( I speak from my experience) will never be forgotten but we'll meet new and better person. Since the first love is first and love that's true and innocent somtething marvelous that's why you can't forget it for now its hard but it will pass and it will remain just a good memory.

usually in life when one door closes we are so busy looking at it that we don't notice that the other one has opened. It will pass only time is needed its normal thing that you are going trought.

I know I am not a bro a milanista but I was trough that hell for a year and a half after 3 yrs serious relationship ....

You know a lot of friends (obviously, girls included) know me personally on facebook, so I can't really discuss such stuff (sex stuff to be precise) out there.

I think here, being flooded with young guys and all, is the right place to do so, isn't it?

Let's see...

I've been thinking about a weird issue, I guess we can discuss it before the build up to next Tuesday's all-important game consumes all our time and minds.

Now, my question: What makes guys go for girls?

I mean, what gave us the impetus, the motivation, and the enthusiasm to go for the first one? And what keeps us going almost for our whole lifetime after so many failures, cheats, disappointments, screw-ups etc?

Alright, laugh all you will, but I'm serious, and I've been asking this my friends and they've so far been able to come up with next to nothing, at least no cogent explanation has been provided by anyone for me yet.

My personal answer, which is clearly just mine, is our unquenchable curiosity and fascination, in addition to that niggling glimmer of hope, left somewhere down there, of finally finding the soul-mate, "The One".

Yes, our bodies need sex, our souls need to give and receive love and affection, and our minds need the peace [so rarely] provided by the female.
But there's more to it, isn't it?

The only person about whose POV I can confidently talk about, is me, and my reason is I enjoy impaling the female mind and discover what there is to discover. I also enjoy watching the actions and reactions of each of them in particular scenarios, which is nothing but unique in their own right.


So, guys, my answer was, put simply, "The desire to discover new landscapes".

Share yours, help me out here!

Actually, I don't think we all are.
This sometimes is an advantage, and sometimes not so much.

There are countless people who "like what they are/have" and prefer not to disrupt the stability of their life.

Like Barcelona who sometimes don't seem to appreciate their good state of affairs and bring useless elements such as Alexis Sanchez only to unbalance the whole juggernaut, some people have this sickness inside which makes them try to retouch a perfectly healthy, functioning aspect of their lives.

It ain't broke, as they say, but we try to fix it.
Expand the effing attitude to our social life and you'll get my vision.

I agree in that people generally tend to look for things, even when things aren't there. It happens when curiosity meets a person who is willing and able to act on that curiosity.

Post by Guest Tue Mar 05, 2013 11:10 pm

I am waiting on some friends for a dinner, so I will provide a lengthier response at some point this week. One thing I wanted to bring up/correct is that not all men go for women (not sure how much of a difference that makes), but I do feel that closeted men struggle because many men (from my experience) never think twice about this - just a little food for though, iras. I personally have no issue with my friends sexual preference, but I recently found out a buddy of mine is gay (he's been in a happy relationship with his partner for 10 years) and that got me to thinking how insensitive we can be without realizing.

Friends are running late, so this post might be longer than I first expected (keep in mind I am on my phone and it is difficult to keep referencing your post).

You mentioned that our bodies need sex, but I'm curious to know where science stands on this. I definitely agree with your notion that we need love/affection, although I am inclined to argue that we can get that same love from friends and family. With that being said, I still crave that significant other in my life. I am content with waiting and have learned that it is not always wise to be on the lookout for love - some people I know have argued that it is more important to put your true self out there and let the rest play out (keep in mind that is not to say we cannot approach women/men we come across).

Friends have arrived and I need to put my phone away, I don't want to me THAT guy!

1. The issue of homosexuality has been there since the dawn of man and will be, but the highest percentage of homosexuals in any city in the world is in San Francisco, and that's only %15. So despite that I have nothing against them, I try to concentrate on the majority.


2. If I remember correctly, a credible study in Israel in 2007 stated that a healthy man in the age range of 15-50, needs roughly 300 sexual intercourse sessions a year.

Science aside, come on man! We know we need to get horizontal on a regular damn basis!!!


3. This one I strongly disagree with.

You can't make out with your brother! You can't rub your sister's "WHOLE" body. You can't talk about every single intimate thing with your mom. And your friends can't buy you Valentine presents, can they?

The examples are endless...


4. This is a very nice, and absorbing subject to talk about, but no offence, it's irrelevant of what I tried to pull out of you.

I'm talking about the "WHY", not the "HOW".
I wanna know the reasons behind our tireless attempts to have someone by our side, not the ways which takes us to them and vice versa.


I sure am waiting for you to get rid of them friends and give us a full-force answer, eh?
All in all, great input THC, as always is the case with you good ol' friend!

On a tangent here, I HATE, HATE, HATE, when people pull out their phones and do random crap on them when you are trying to have a conversation. If you really must make a call or txt, excuse yourself from the conversation and go do it. That's not the real problem though, too many times people are tapping away at their phones in restaurants, cafes, bars, or just anywhere. Real-life social interaction, to an extent, is being replaced by technology. However, I never thought it would come to friends multitasking conversations on their phones when there are other REAL people around. It's just rude and antisocial. ugh.

While I understand you wanting to focus on the majority, I am inclined to believe that the percentage of gay/bisexual/transgender is bigger than what the statistics will show. I am going to opt to move on from that as you prefer to focus on the majority, although it is a topic that interests me.

While I do agree that getting horizontal on the regular would be nice (preferably with a partner, or even a casual set up - so long as we are exclusively sleeping together). That is my current dilemma (if I can even call it that) my friend. There are times when my mind feels conflicted between relationship and casual sex, but that tends to only be the case when my man juices are flowing at a high level. Once again, not what you asked about, but I would be interested to hear your thoughts on this...

I am going to admit that after re-reading my original words, I am on your side with this one. While friends can offer you a person to talk to, I personally enjoy certain things that can "only" come from a partner. While I dislike the valentines reference (I hate hallmark holidays) I get your point 100 percent - I do realize that you mentioned there are countless other example, I just really dislike there made up holidays which "force" people to spend money. If you want to treat your girl to something, go ahead and do it because you love her (or because it is an anniversary of some sort).

All in all, great input THC, as always is the case with you good ol' friend!

While I have had nothing but piss poor experiences over the past 5 years with dating/women, I still feel that same hunger you mentioned in your original post. Hard to say why, but perhaps we all have this need to fill that void. Even when my social life is booming (by my standards), I still wish I had someone to come home to. I wouldn't mind if we only laid next to each other conversing as I held in my arms, or if we are having a sweet/sext intimate moment. I fear that being single for so long has made me forget some of the things I love about women. One thing I do remember and I sometimes come across is women that smell like heaven, not sure how to explain it, but I have been known to get weak in the knees. I think my "why" comes down to filling that void which tends to make me feel lonely...I guess you were correct, Iras, I continue to feel the love of family/friends, but that just is not good enough. No matter how much pain/agony we have suffered in the past (or we might suffer in the future before finding "the one"), I still yearn for that companionship that you just cannot get else where.

P.S. I was meaning to re-respond to your post about heartache, but I never got around to it. I basically has this girl leave me after a 2 year long (maybe a few months short of two years, but we were living together) relationship and I went through my fair share of depression. I will have to re-read both of your posts, but keep an eye out for it in the next couple of days. Ever since quitting smoking Marijuana again, I have felt the urge to write and write and write (something that was not always the case when I was smoking on a daily basis).

P.S. Feel free to call me "Dom", "D" or "Dominic" (oddly enough, that is the one name people never call me by and I still feel weird when it happends), although I do not mind if you people continue to acknowledge me by my username.

I am going to opt to move on from that as you prefer to focus on the majority, although it is a topic that interests me.

2. While I do agree that getting horizontal on the regular would be nice (preferably with a partner, or even a casual set up - so long as we are exclusively sleeping together). That is my current dilemma (if I can even call it that) my friend. There are times when my mind feels conflicted between relationship and casual sex, but that tends to only be the case when my man juices are flowing at a high level. Once again, not what you asked about, but I would be interested to hear your thoughts on this...

3. P.S. I was meaning to re-respond to your post about heartache, but I never got around to it. I basically has this girl leave me after a 2 year long (maybe a few months short of two years, but we were living together) relationship and I went through my fair share of depression. I will have to re-read both of your posts, but keep an eye out for it in the next couple of days. Ever since quitting smoking Marijuana again, I have felt the urge to write and write and write (something that was not always the case when I was smoking on a daily basis).


4. P.P.S. Feel free to call me "Dom", "D" or "Dominic" (oddly enough, that is the one name people never call me by and I still feel weird when it happends), although I do not mind if you people continue to acknowledge me by my username.
1. Look, we were f***ed by those dumb-ass ancestors who had intercourse with some Chimpanzee, Orangutan or whatever that contracted them AIDS, and we have to wear rubbers just in case for that. So in comparison, homosexuality is not that big a disaster. Maybe it's not a disaster at all. But like Racism, we are still centuries from getting rid of homophobia.

It's like Pato's injuries. We were absolutely livid and disappointed every time he sustained one, and they were obviously, undeniably, a problem. Now, denying the FACT that homosexuality is still very much a problem would be downright stupid. That's just my POV.


2. Let me tell you a tiny little story here. My friend was supposed to get married a few years ago, and on his wedding night, his uncle whispered the following in his ear: "Screw her twice a week to keep the sex interesting and varied, and for the remaining days, get help and get off with some random bitch any chance you could."

Now that's a sexist advice thru & thru, and one I can hardly agree with, but there's a hidden point, which is: Men need to get off more regularly, or they can't quite function.

There have been billions of men who, in a state of mad love, had sex with other women without quite affecting the feelings they have for their true love.

I have experienced this, too. It's been less than a year now that I've being left for dead by my one and only, and I've had relationships/sex with three girls and while I enjoyed the sex a lot and they were good girls and all, none of them and what they offered could match the ecstasy I felt in HER arms. NOT AT ALL. NOT EVEN CLOSE.
And obviously, I'm still madly in love with her and my memories of her.

So I stand by the unanimous verdict: Sex is (almost) always great, but doing it with a loved one is the ticket to heaven.


3. Heartache! What an enjoyable topic!
Yeah, sure we will talk more on that, although I must admit it's easier said than done. Just remembering the love of your life gives you the chills and renews that insane feeling of nostalgia, and you know it ain't a good thing...


4. Well, some people don't like to be called by their real name here, like Brigate Rossonere who changed his username after a while. Of course I know your name, and I will use it from this moment on, Dom. And you could call me Abbas in return!

On a side note, did you know that the protagonist's name in Christopher Nolan's "Inception" (2010) was Dominick "Dom" Cobb?
You sure remind me of that masterpiece and the impossibly-handsome DiCaprio every time. I like your name!

Completely agree! I am the type of the person to just say how I feel about things regardless. So when someone pulls out a phone in the middle of my conversation talking TO them, I actually say something. I find it rude and disrespectful. Whenever I go out with my girl, we keep our phones on silent and don't use it or look at it during our date. I think that's how it should be and allows you to spend QUALITY time with the person. If you are using your phone while your on a date or whatever, you aren't there 100%, your mind will be thinking of the other 100 conversations you may be having on your phone. So I agree with you completely Forza.

Yeah, that's right. An excuse many people use is that they can keep track of both conversations at once. On the contrary, even if you are a really good multi-tasker and can be 100% attentive to both conversations, you can never create the impression that you are being 100% attentive. You will always appear distracted to the other person. And that distraction leads to annoyance and, in turn, resentment. The most important thing, as you said, is to just tell the person straight up to put their phone away before it gets to that last stage.

Multitasking is not real (in a sense that you cannot give 100 percent of your to two things at once), one of the tasks will always suffer. I much rather give my all to one task and do it to the best of my ability. I have a soccer teammate who does this and it really turns me off, there are times when I want to take her phone and smash it against the floor. In most cases, there is no need to have your phone out and it is rude. The only time I pull my phone out, is when I am inspired to get my (insta)gram on because I have followers that demand excellence :coffee:

Yes, I agree with that modified definition of multitasking. I tried, but I can't think of two clearly different tasks that you can do at once without sacrificing the quality in which you do either task.

An exception to the no phones in real conversation rule is if you want to show something to other people to facilitate the progression of the conversation, or as I like to call it, an efficient exchange of ideas. That being said, your phone should not become the centre of the rest of the conversation or the conversation will be killed by the phone.

I normally do not do such things, but I will do it for you, my friend. Instadomos is my username. For the record, I always look at people that begin to follow me, but I only follow back if the pictures they have interest me. If I don't follow back tonight, it is because I fell back to sleep, but you will get a follower in the early morning (at the the latest).

I do sometimes follow the exception you mentioned, Forza, but only if I find it truly worthwhile.
