Do we know FBA is a him?
Don't take a free shot just for the hell of it because then you become "that guy". And when Miss Teacher and her friends (maybe cute) see you out at some future point she'll (rightfully) badmouth you to them, saying how you freaked out on her when she decided, after (only!) two dates, to end things. Why be that guy?

I would not reply. It was freaking two dates. It is likely that she felt lack of chemistry. If the conversation was there, but she decided not to pursue it, just let it go.

No, stupid. You shouldn't even have emailed her back a second time. [Edited to add, why wouldn't you use the phone? Always use the phone.]

What is there to say? "Pleeeeeeeeeease? Pretty please?" You're an idiot for asking the question. (Perfect use of the anon function.) Be a fucking man. Hell, if she did change her mind and decided to go out with you again, she already knows she can do whatever she wants to you. You've effectively castrated yourself.

Now would be a good time for FBA to concentrate on his career.

New year, new woman, and now no woman. I'm not all that torn up about this one, would just let it go, but still pondering whether I might either make one more attempt, or send a flame.

The facts: She's beautiful, sweet, smart, teaches grade school. We met, we went out on two dates, which were long, a bit intense in terms of conversation, had a fully clothed makeout session. Verbally confirmed mutual attraction. Agreed to a future date. After I call and leave a message, I don't hear from her. I leave another message a week later, saying I hadn't heard back from her, could she please call and me know she's OK.

She responds by email that says:
"I am sorry that I didn't get back to you -- I've just been sitting with the idea of getting involved with you -- I've had some reservations about it and just needed to think about it.
I enjoy your company we've definitely had some great laughs- thank you for that.

Dearest beautiful, sweet grade school teacher,

I can certainly understand and appreciate your reservations. While our makeout session was fully clothed, you no doubt noticed the uncoiling python of love in my pants. Especially after I repeatedly placed your hand upon it. I know what you are thinking: can I handle two diet coke cans of love? While it is true that I have an armadillo in my trousers, let me assure you: I am a gentle lover. Before even attempting penetration, I will gladly go down on that sweaty salt lick between your legs, ensuring that your quivering roast beef is sufficiently greasy. And I will never, ever attemt anal, unless I'm sure that you are really, really drunk. We can make this work.

Love, Anon. Fashionista Guy.

The dealer (I think you still call them dealers, even though there aren't any cards) were instructing me on how to play, and what's what -- and there is one time when they said (after the come-out roll) where you should ALWAYS double down.

So, my question -- what is the situation when you should always double down? I can't remember what it is, and I'm going to a gambling locale next month and would like to play craps for REAL!
First, place the minimum bet allowed. After the person "comes out" (rolls the dice), she'll establish a point (assuming she doesn't roll 2,3,7,11). Craps tables have "odds", in which the higher the better. The higher the odds, the closer the entire bet comes to being 50/50 gambler/casino. 5x odds means you can place 5x the amount you initially bet behind your orginal bet (this is what I think you mean by "doubling down"). This is the best bet in a casino. You would initially bet $10. After point is established and assuming 5X odds, place $50 behind your initial bet.

No shit. Dude, if you were my friend, and you came whining into my office like this, I would tell you to pick your balls up the floor and put them back in your pants. This would be after I whacked you upside the head.

The girl is (a) fretting over a relationship with you when you haven't even gotten to that point (b) too rude to return a call (c) rude enough to tell you this shit via email.

She's trouble. And not the good kind either.

Don't respond to her, don't call her, don't anything. Just forget about the nutcase.

Respond with a "thank you" and then tell her that you thought the sex was great and if she wants to do it again once in a while without the pressure of a relationship you are game.

When she replies that you two never had sex ask her to e-mail a picture so that you can sort out which girl she is....then post her picture here so your good buddies on the FB can run the other way if they see her.

Dear Anon. Fashionista Guy:

You forced my hand. The real reason you have been so ceremoniously edumped is because the reason I was not quivering wasn't so that a man could eat in peace, but because your roast beef eating skills need some work. Perhaps you should go back to the frat and watch some more lesbian porn with the brothers.

Please do not contact me again.

-Beautiful, Grade School Teacher

The nasty email message back would make him a bigger loser than he already is. But if he did in fact do it, he could avoid signing in as anon and develop a loser,loser,loser sock.

We may all have to do this if we agree to take that male contraception shot from India.

Well only because in the hood, kicking someone's ass is a term of art and doesn't always involve the actual act of kicking (although that helps).
Perhaps "bitch-slap you with a severed arm" would have been better.
