It really depends on who you each are as people. Trust is foundational to anything long lasting. If her past bothers you, but you believe she has matured and is trustworthy now, ask yourself if there is anything you can do as a couple to establish that trust despite the past. I will say going...

A Definitely gives me just the smallest bit of "gonzo" vibes. I prefer it. It's less clean, but more engaging.

- Lack of integrity - - silence followed by sudden unexpected wit - philosophical conversations

"A good poem should be concrete." (Based out of something real and not your imagination.) That bit of college course advice enforced by a grading system screwed up my writer's voice and style for years... That was when I lost faith in any education system that claims to teach you about art...

Whatever tools you use, I advise that you don't use them repeatedly one after another and apply some variance to your approach. Otherwise your story starts to feel contrived. Nothing turns me off to a novel faster than repeated cliffhangers with no breaks for example. I don't mind a good...

I would say I am somewhat likeable. I have a genuine heart for people and I think that comes across well enough. I am socially awkward in a public setting however, and I certainly do have a number of quirks that I believe cause people to personally like me, but also not go out of their way to...

I don't think it's particularly gross or anything, and maybe I am out-of-touch, but I don't get misandry vibes either. It's not all women getting turned on by this, just this specific one. And let me tell you, i have heard women admit they were turned on by weirder things. Fact is being a...

Anything by this guy when it comes to music and history.

I'm a history/mythology nerd. That doesn't say much as they are extremely broad and deep topics. Even as I say I am one, I have to admit there are uncountable things I know nothing about. But if you happen to say something in my presence I know is objectively incorrect, I may have a hard time...

Unless she has an allergy or something you can almost never go wrong with chocolate in my experience. My advice whatever you do, just do what you can to give it a personal touch so it's memorable. Not too much, but you want it to stand out a little.

I agree with the general dislike of Fan Fiction. I've always seen it as sort of a nessisary evil. On the one hand, it's completely natural for a fan to get excited over their favorite works, and is a wonderful tool to get people to start practicing the act of writing. On the other, I would not...

Of course, monsters make it popular. It's to desensitize people so when they see that shadow figure standing outside their window they think it's "just the book" causing them to be afraid. *edit sorry that's not a wrong answer.

Language always changes, so offering up new words now and then is the norm. The key is to do it in a way that is hardly noticed. If it starts to interrupt the flow of your work when read by your audience, you've likely done too much. You can Also make up words so often, that even if your readers...

One of my favorite sayings my dad dropped when he thought I was talking nonsense. "I see!" Said the blind man, pissing into the wind. "It's all coming back to me now!"

One thing I find that helps when writing intelligent characters is to specialize that intelligence into a specific area and avoid a universal genius archetype. Einstein was good in his field of study, but often neglected other areas of his life. While such universal men have existed, (Leonardo...

The questions aren't near specific enough for an accurate answer in some of those hypotheticals. Which is always a problem in these kinds of things.

The key is to go in with no expectations. You have to let it be it's own thing if you're going to enjoy it. Otherwise, disappointment is almost always inevitable.

How evil you are depends entirely on which generation of vampire lore you are pulling from my dear... now step into this light and check out this wonderful bit of woodcraft I made. :devilish:

No, it is simply nature. It is no more evil to kill a creature for sustenance, and continued existence than it is to defend your life from a predator attempting to do the same. As for vampires, it is not the idea of drinking of human blood that made the vampire evil, in the traditional sense...
