That's not weird, that's good. If he keeps talking to his mom then he will KNOW how to talk to ladies and be more confident. I say go for it, Warren. You don't have anything to lose, do you? Just do it, no reason not too. Just, don't get heart broken if the unthinkable happens.
I have this water cooling system in my computer. I turned it on when I got home and then went to eat lunch, play the piano, walk the dog, all this junk. About an hour and a half later I walk back into my room to this rancid smell of burnt solder and Water Wetter, then I see my screen bugging out like the debug screen of an old arcade machine. I push the button to turn it off, it doesn't! I pull the plug and I'm looking around, scream out "shit!" and look into my computer. The solder around the water block connecting the two halves MELTED! It feels hotter than a pizza oven in my computer and I can see the solder driving down onto my Geforce3 graphics card! I run to plug in the pump for my water system, which I had neglected turning on, the cause of the problem. Well the solder was still so hot that the water started spewing from the newly formed gap, spitting hot solder around the inside of my computer. "SHIT!" I look around just dumb founded as water sprays across my monitor, onto my pocketpc (which I'm using now), my speaker system.. my college papers,CD's, chair, wall... Water starts puddling in the bottom of my computer and the smell of stale air burning to smoke filled the room and hall. I grab the electric cord in a now apathetic mood and walk slowly to the bathroom to get a towel. That was 30 minutes ago... I have no idea what I'm going to do about it. Maybe I'll post it on ebay as is and buy a laptop. Although I was just on the phone with the sales guy for my RSX and I'm not getting as good a deal as I was hoping. I don't have a clue how much money I'll have left in the bank.
I hope Dell ships laptops overnight. I have to teach Calc II class next week, the professor is going on vacation and left me incharge. I have all this work to do for that.
