Robert Schimmel: Life Since Then (2009) IMDB rating: 8.20 Plot: When the moment is right (as they say on those way more creepy than sexy Cialis commercials), most people shut the boudoir door and bolt it behind them. Not comedian Robert Schimmel. During his hour-long sex act, he flings open the door and virtually invites spectators into his bedroom. You get the feeling he may even have stadium seats in there.

White guys and flirting.?
Alright so it’s 1:09am and I’m watching Late Night with Conan O Brian and I can’t focus on Robert Schimmel cuz I’m to preoccupied with life. and Men. lol

You see basically today while I was in the train, there was this white guy,and he was very cute and he kept looking at me and then he smiled. So at first I was kind of shocked since usually Latino and black guys are the ones to be more open–like whenever I see a really cute white guy that [maybe] interested in me–he’ll just stare and then look away when I make stare.

So yeah, I returned the smile. It was this weird shy smile, because I’m horrible when it comes to flirting. And I’m not that confident when it comes to myself.
But anyways, he just smiled and never approached me. And to be honest I could never go up to a stranger and say hi, I just can’t. And from what it seemed neither does he.

Then when his stop came and he left. He just left…and it really sucked.

Oh and by the way I’m Dominican American, my mother’s side is European descendant and my father’s is African descendant–but I’m dark skin so I guess I appear black to many. My features actually resemble alot to Zoe Saldana–http://www.topnews.in/files/images/Zoe-S aldana1.jpg

So yeah I wonder if some white guys get intimidated by me. Cause ALOT of black guys are upfront and guys from my heritage are really easy going. So it’s nothing!
But the thing is that I’m really attracted to the tall, shaggy blondish guys with piercing eyes. Ah. I guess since there like soo different from the usual guys I see.

And I have never had a boyfriend, so its not really a personal preference… but I would still really like to meet a white guy. And it seems that many white guys aren’t as up front as others. At least not the ones that live in New York and are young.

My cousin has dated many white guys but she’s like 30, so the guys are much mature and open minded. And once in Barnes and Noble this one guy, who was white–actually approached me. He asked for my name, what I did and all the good stuff. The only bad thing is that I’m 19 and he was 27. And the age difference was too much, especially someone as naive as me :[

So I guess many white guys in their early 20’s aren’t too confronting as black/Hispanic guys. Like when it comes to black girl? Or could it be that they just flirt differently?
Ohh thanks. I figured that, I guess. *sigh*

And I attend a community college so there’s alot of people from different countries, rather than Americans. I have two friends who are white but their more classmates than actual buddies.

It’s true that white people, in general are more socially conservative. For example, If I need to say something to some one I will walk over to them, and say it. Your average black/Hispanic guy will scream out ‘Yo, I needs….etc.’ across the landscape.

It’s mostly because your attractive. Guys don’t approach attractive girls much, as they figure they will just get turned down. That does go double for attractive black girls, as they have the option of saying-’get out of my face white boy, I only like chocolate’.

White guys do flirt differently. Your train guy was looking of a sign that you liked him, and your shy smile was not enough. So he moved on.

nah. It just depends on what type of person they are.
And since you said you have similarities to Zoe, you’re pretty. And wouldn’t any guy problems for you.

And my friend have the same experiences too.
Apparently, Hispanics/Black guys like to flirt A LOT! But isn’t as romantic as guys who doesn’t flirt a lot.

It doesnt matter the race of the person.. We are in 2009!! All that matters is that specific person. I’ve known a lot of shy blacks and whites and Mexicans. And I’ve known a lot of upfront blacks and white and mexicans..

im not sure about race..but every guy has his own way of flirting..some are very shy and some are up front..maybe the guy on the bus was intimidated by u, maybe if u see him again he might say somthing..sometimes it takes people a few times to open up and say hi. and then he may have doubted him self..guy do that too..they dont always get the hint.

Estara bien porque tienes muchos anos en tu vida (sorry I cannot make accents).
I my self am black but I have a preference for latinas and asians, and most people when they are young are taught, either subconsciously or directly, to date inside their own race and culture. You should always blame your heritage, if any thing you probable look you and age is more of a factor than race, especially in New York one of our many great diverse cities of America. Give it time and maybe ask some of your desires out instead of the other way around, where at an age where women ask out men almost as much.
Now the thing about the blacks and latinos, it’s because that is one of the most excepted intercultural relationships of the USA, we for the longest time have been the ‘minority of america’ so everyone said of course the ‘lowest’ classes would find eachother. If you are truly tired of the same guys hang out in different spots.
P.S. Take tolls on what people assume you are; Black, Mexican, Puerto Rican(most people do not know the difference between Dominican). If you are seen as black we’ll then yes that is more pressure for the white guys that are not ready. Besides you were on a train, I’d be nervous asking a girl out on a train, bus or anyother transportation where I may never see her again.
