What do you mean by "when required"?


Like if i made a mistake and it would harm/ hurt someone i'd tell them. However, If at College I made a stupid error whilst reading the thermometer and the teacher say's whoever read it can't read, I wouldn't be like "Oh it was me!"

Eh there is a difference between not needlessly pointing out to everyone else that you madea mistake, and being unable to admit to yourself that you made a mistake.

No point pointing out silly mistakes to people at all, so long as you recognised you made one and take steps in preventing future mistakes.

Yeah true :smile:. What action should a girl take if a guy kept on staring at her/ glanced at he for a month. They never spoke to each other, but now they are creating a convro, but they talk mainly work-based at College

I'd ask her out if I liked her. And if she rejected me I'd move on and be okay with it, not get bitter or awkward and understand you can't win them all.

Then ask him out if you like him.

Gender is irrelevant in this.

I don't admit to mistakes all the time, particularly if I can resolve the issue quickly. It really does depend on the situation.

Well then don't ask him out...you really didn't make it easy for me to work out what on earth was going on or what you wanted.


If you think he likes you then if you're up for it ask him (without implying accidentally you like him too) and if he does say sorry you don't feel that way, and say you hope you can still be friends. If not then just ignore it.

I Understand that, It was mostly a misunderstanding if you see my reply to his reply of that comment.

I meant being able to admit a mistake to yourself. As I think that is incredibly important.

The land of my work colleagues, if you actually believed some of them.

At least in IT most things are backed up so mistakes are recoverable (and hideable).

It's Christmas and I'm on my holidays. So yes. :biggrin:
not just a 17 year old but anyone really should know how to love themselves and if they don't then they should learn to because whoever you are you're a wonderful person!
