Since people seem to think that the off-topic section is for political discussion, something that is frowned upon, I have temporarily closed the section. ANY political discussions in any other forum will be deleted and the user suspended. I have had it with the politically motivated comments.

My friend/roomie (who happens to be a gal) is really excited to see the place. I am too.



Cool, so she likes airplanes? Maybe you could date her then? :)

She doesn't have the passion like I do but she is curious and very respectful of my interest in them. She even insists my shelf of built models goes in the living room! Not to get ahead of myself but I think we will end up happy with each other in due time. I need to process things still and don't want to jeopardize something that could be great.

That sounds great Spooky! So, there is some chance then! Just be sure to make it fun for her as well. I've learned a looooong time ago, that airshows and women don't mix unless you get them involved in something they like with it. It's kind of like training a dog. You have to associate a behavior (going to airshows) with a reward of something she likes (like gabbing with other attendee's or pilots' wives). Women will usually like an activity, if it involves something enjoyable for them rather than hearing boring, useless information such as which fighter group in Europe scored the first kill, who was the highest scoring ace, etc., etc.

Good luck! :D

All I ask for is that my interests can be respected. My friend does find some of it fascinating and i've invited her to airshows but also explained in great detail what a day there would be like (hot, lots of walking, FUN!) and she's been wanting to check it out but isn't sure about the long day. We've got a big season coming up next year and hopefully I can show her a good time at one of them. Maybe Arlington as I go multiple days and we could kinda go primarily for the show. Plus she's excited about seeing the Tillamook Air Museum this weekend!
