Ask Josh: Josh-Related Questions Edition!
Ask Josh! February 18th, 2010
This was the case he was talking about. From the Tali Tenang post.
Here are a few overdue Josh-related questions for the advice column of this blog, Ask Josh!™.
And here they are, in random order!
“hey where did u get ur 3gs cover from and how much eh?”
Congratulations on your choice of phone, and your taste in covers. It’s called the iClooly Ring, it’s a bit thick but functional. You can get it at the Mac Shop (forgot which one, there are 2 I think) in The Gardens. It’s about RM99. See it here: http://www.iclooly.com/
“hi..hi.. thanks for visiting my blog. yeah, can you give me any advise in my future career?? T-T”
Nico saw my talk at the recent Star Education Fair 2010 and blogged about it, which I then commented on. Read it here 
. The talk was also covered here on The Star.
Well, Nico, here’s are a few pointers:
Josh speaking at The Star Education Fair 2008
- Don’t ever bring your mother or boyfriend to job interviews ever. This merits a whole post by itself, which I will probably post later. Over the past few years I have interviewed some people who did that. It shows that you are not independent.
- Find out what you like to do, and chart out an acension path. Eg if you like hairdressing, aspire to have your own salon within 5 years or so. Or if you want to be a lawyer, find out how long you think it’ll take to become a partner of a firm or a director of your own law firm.
- Especially on #2, think of how far you want to go and how much you want to study. I have a relative who is a doctor, but advises me against becoming a doctor because you have to study for 5 years, and serve the government for 2-3 years. That means by the time you go out and work you are almost 30 already.
- Do you need to study to do your dream job? Or are you skilled enough, and need working experience?
- What is your backup plan if you do not manage to do your first choice?
- What can you afford? Education is getting more and more expensive. It’s best to make a choice that is justified.
- Meet some industry people or take an internship to get a feel of your future job. Don’t make a decision without doing that first.
- Start as early as possible. You don’t need to wait for college to start learning.
- Work on your soft skills - presentation, talking, grooming, etc. These skills are beneficial no matter if you are an executive, a manager, a hairdresser or a lawyer.
- Find something you can enjoy doing, OR something that you can see yourself doing (even if you don’t enjoy it that much) and enjoy the money earned.
“hai Josh..
Im richie. I just want to know how can i apply exclusivity for my Advertlets account?
Because it seems my blog has generate some amazing earnings with advertlets. I hope i can get a reply from u soon “
Sure thing Richie! (Nice name btw). You can drop an e-mail to asking about exclusivity, and they’ll take you through the process. Thanks for your interest in Advertlets
Btw, Richie has already been approved for Advertlets Titan exclusivity for both his blogs - RidzuanRichie.com and MatKepoh.com

Things You Didn’t Know About Fast Food Delivery in Malaysia
Ask Josh!, General, Sharing June 17th, 2009
Warning: This article may make you fat. (Or fatter than you already are). In celebration of my weight stabilizing at 62-63 KG (average BMI), thanks to supplements and minimal amounts of exercise, I have been eating in pretty often.
Here are some tips I’ll like to share with you so you don’t need to bother with the whole ‘have to get up, wear clothes, then walk out and actually enter restaurant and buy food’ kind of thing:
If you push the one in front, the rest will all fall like...Domino's!
Domino’s Pizza - Tel: 1-300-888-333
Pro-tip: Dominos vouchers are “infinite.” Got an expired Domino’s voucher? Give them your coupon code and ask them if they can honour it. Most of the time, they will - and they will give you the discount, as well as give you new coupons. The free contoured Coke glass they have in conjunction with the Terminate Your Hunger promo currently is pretty cool, look for the Terminate Your Hunger packages. The last time I checked though, the stocks for the glasses were sold out.
Direct link to Domino’s delivery menu.
Ah Lonald ah, why you so happy one?
Ah Lonald ah, why you so happy one?
McDonald’s - Tel: 1-300-13-1300
Direct link to McDonald’s delivery menu.
Breakfast tips (especially if you work late, this is useful)
McDonald’s McDelivery is 24 hours. After 4AM, breakfast is available. However, the regular menu isn’t available.
Looking for a healthy food that tastes good and passes out unprocessed when you do your thing? McDonald’s serves corn too!
Most people don’t know that McDonald’s serves corn. I’m pretty pleased with the condition of the corn most times. Except for when I asked for ‘Corn in Cup’, and they asked me ‘What flavour? Chocolate or Strawberry?’. And also, when they gave me SUGAR for my Corn in Cup instead of SALT.
Are you so damn lazy that you can’t walk out to get food, you can’t walk out to get cigarettes either?
Most of the time, its very possible that you can get the delivery boy to go and buy you cigarettes (or other junk) as well. Just ask. And give a tip. RM2-RM3 is good. If it’s the same guy, he’s even more likely to do so.
Say 'Peri-Peri!'
Say 'Peri-Peri!'
Nando’s - Tel: 1300-88-6555
Has delivery, although it is mostly underpromoted. They close at 10:00PM though. I’m pretty pleased with the service in general, especially because the Coke comes ice-cold (they sometimes include a bag with ice), and also, they use stylish environmentally friendly paper bags instead of plastic.
Direct link to Nando’s Delivery Menu.
Even if your place is a dump, you can still get room service as if it's a hotel!
Even if your place is a dump, you can still get room service as if it's a hotel!
Room Service - Tel: 1300-886-886
Room Service Deliveries Malaysia/Singapore serves stuff from Chilli’s, Friday’s and various expensive restaurants around Bangsar. They only cover PJ/Bangsar, KL/Ampang, Sunway/Subang.
The RM10-RM15 delivery charge is ridiculous, but its worth the hassle if you’re craving a pasta carbonara or a nice juicy burger and thick fries, and you don’t want to settle for McD’s. Good for ‘at-home’ dates with your girlfriend or mistress.
Burger Queen is sexy.
Burger Queen is sexy.
As For Other Outlets…Not Yet…
And of note, if any of you relevant marketing folks are reading this, the top restaurants I would like to see offering delivery in Malaysia are: Yoshinoya, Burger King, KFC, & Carl’s Jr.
Lastly, I recommend you tip your delivery boys. Considering that they earn RM800-RM1200 a month at most (based on my estimate), give them a RM2-RM5 tip, simply because they are the faithful enablers of your lazy gluttony.
Have a happy time getting fat! Toodles!

Relationship problems that you might not know you have…
General June 2nd, 2009
So lately there’ve been lots of event pics and parties on this blog. I guess you guys seem to like them, as this blog by yours truly recently made it to the top 100 blogs in Malaysia. Woot! And it’s now number #69, nice number. Not bad considering this blog started just on 6 Jan 2009.
While I do try my best to take effort in writing detailed event overviews, introducing the people that I take pictures of and try to take nice pictures of them, even Photoshopping off their pimples (see I’m so thoughtful), the whole thing still strikes me as kind of shallow.
When I started this blog, I intended that besides keeping my readers entertained, I would also be able to make them think, and at the very most pretentiously ideal, hope that I can spark a wave of more intellectual blogging.
So, it’s time to plumb the depths. Time to get emo-emo. Time to think think.
This picture isn't entirely related to the post. But it is pretty damn funny la.
So, I haven’t been getting as many questions that I have wanted for the Ask Josh section.
Or actually, the problems I’m getting are way too specific, and I cannot post them up because then people would know exactly who the problem asker is. Some are bloggers. Hehe. Of course, cannot reveal who la.
So, in an effort to create more submissions for the Ask Josh section, I am presenting you…Problems That You May Not Know You Have!
Please take this as a thought exercise - not all these cases are based on real life people that I have encountered. In an effort to make this different from the usual Ask Josh posts, I offer no solutions whatsoever to the problem in this post (I may later), but rather, would want to spur my blog readers to discuss this further.
* I realise this may be a bit cruel, or create unnecessary problems. So, please do not read the following items below if you are currently dating someone, or in a relationship, or married or wish to remain blissfully ignorant. Thank you!
So, have you stopped to think that:
All the same one.
All the same one.
Your partner doesn’t ‘like you just the way you are’, but rather ‘fethisizes’ your type.
For example, let’s say you are overweight. Have you considered that perhaps he doesn’t like you in spite of you being fat, but because you are fat. There’s nothing wrong with liking people that are ‘different’ than stereotypical society’s perception of beauty, but what if he ONLY felt attracted to irregular standards of beauty?
It’s like the difference between your partner saying that ‘you have nice feet’, and your partner having a ‘foot fetish’.
Would you feel disturbed if he was of normal weight, and ONLY dated obese women? All his girlfriends so far have been obese. Let’s say he’s 5′8, 65KG, and he only dated girls who are 80KG (and below 5′6) and above.
Why this is scary: Imagine all of your partner’s ex-girlfriends in a room together. He doesn’t like you, but likes the idea of your type.
What do you think...true?
You are boring and wooden (but reliable), and your girlfriend is servicing her emotional needs elsewhere
Let’s say you’re an ace in bed, and very hemsem. Okay la, and you’re also very rich and generous. But somehow your girlfriend feels the need to talk to other men about her deeper thoughts and feelings, because you’re a plank of wood - she doesn’t feel you’re emotionally available or the type that listens. So she calls other people to cry about you. And you don’t know.
Why this is scary: You may be emotionally unavailable your whole life due to this being your fixed, actual personality, and this may become a consistent problem with all your future partners. Because this kind of thing tends to be pretty important among women.
This picture is here because she is hot. And also, turned up in a Flickr search for 'relationship'
This picture is here because she is hot. And also, turned up in a Flickr search for 'relationship'
You will never be able to date someone better than your current partner.
Most of the time, people never resolve to date someone worse than who they are dating currently. You ‘trade-up’, and don’t aim to lower your standards further as time progresses. But what if you already reached the pinnacle?
Let’s say this guy has a damn chun girlfriend. At an early age, say, 20-22. And he has perhaps the hottest girlfriend he will ever have. She’s like the whole package, beauty, funny, intelligent, caring and everything.
How is this a problem? There are a few things to worry about here - first thing, this may be the best girl ever, and assuming if there is ever a breakup, no one else will be able to top her, and you will compare
ever partner in future to her. This puts an insane amount of pressure on the relationship. And you know that pressure and relationships don’t go well.
Why this is scary: As above. If you ever break up, then how?How can your heart go on and love?
If you’ve read up to here, I hope you had fun. Have a good week ahead, lol.

Ask Josh: How Much Should Dating Cost Nowadays?
Ask Josh! April 24th, 2009
Another question comes in for Ask Josh, from another guy. I thought you girls were the emo ones?
Dear Josh,
'After buying the bag, I think we need to find somewhere cheaper to eat...how ar?' Photo from photographi_esc on Flickr
'After buying the bag, I think we need to find somewhere cheaper to eat...how ar?' Photo from photographi_esc on Flickr
I’m a 24 year old male that has recently broken up with with my live-in girlfriend after 5 years. There’s no way I can get back with her (I’ve tried, that is too long a story). Anyway, I recently started dating again. I know there’s plenty more to ask about starting again, but here’s the first question - how much should dating cost nowadays? Need to start budgeting as I’m earning a basic salary (about RM2500). I realize it sounds like a stupid question, but all I used to do last time was hang out around the house watching DVDs with my girl, and we didn’t really go out a lot. What do girls expect? I assume as the guy I’m supposed to pay right? I live in the Klang Valley, Malaysia.
Regards, NIHTWDAB
(Now I have To Watch DVDs Alone Boy)
Josh responds:
Thanks for a rather interesting question. Most people would worry about the emotional baggage from the previous relationship, and how to move on. It appears you have that sorted, and you are a pragmatic person who realizes that these are damn sucky economic times, so I will move on.
I’m probably going to cover the middle ground. There are too many variables: from shallow golddigging bitch with her own money but doesn’t want to spend it, to middle-class well-adjusted girl who pays half the time, to wealthy and generous girl who doesn’t mind splitting from time to time, to sugar mummy who spends on you.
Thanks to all the experienced daters of women (from the played to the players) who shared their thoughts with me on this. Having heard your stories - I hope you meet better girls.
Your petrol cost: (RM10-RM40)
Girls reading this will probably think: Damn kiamsap right? Have to think of how much you have to spend on petrol just to go see her! How can! You stingy bastard!
Actually, it is a valid cost. Especially valid if it she stays very far away.
Given that your girlfriend used to stay with you, and you did nothing but watch DVDs, you had no petrol cost. That is about to change.Whether she lives in Cheras or Subang Jaya, Balakong or Damansara Heights makes a difference, relative to where you stay.
I used to date a girl in Balakong. We met under odd circumstance. It was a one and a half hour drive each time to go to her place from PJ. That’s probably about RM25-RM30 of petrol per back and forth trip by today’s prices. I must have spent close to RM1000 on petrol just on her. She was worth the drive, and we went out many times, but eventually broke my heart. But that’s a story for another time.
Pro-tip:
“You can reduce your petrol costs by driving at a moderate speed, not braking suddenly, and checking your tires! Or you can pick up girls around your condo…”
Communication: (RM20-RM300)
Not only are you going out with her from time to time, but I assume you also have to sweet talk her and tell her she very pretty.
I’m assuming your girlfriend is within driving distance, so it’s not going to be a significant cost.
But if she’s in Singapore, then expensive la. There are too many variables, but here’s some tips:
- If you’ve been calling her a lot, put her number on your Activ5/8Pax/Friends & Family plan.
- It’s cheaper to call from mobile to mobile than house line to mobile.
- Webcam and chat on MSN and Skype is actually more fun.
Pro-tip:
“If she doesn’t want to talk to you, you save money on your handphone bills!”
Food: (RM10-RM500)
Breaking down your food options, prices are quoted for two people, assuming you’re paying for her.
An easy way is to ask: What kind of food do you like? If she shy shy and say anything also can…to avoid looking like a cheapskate, go by approximation: The kind of restaurants that are closest to where she stays. For example, Damansara Heights has quite a bit of fine dining place, and Cheras has more hawker restaurants. If you don’t know, perhaps you can scale it by the kind of car she drives.
Hawker/Mamak/’Neu Kopitam’/Coffee: RM10-Rm25 (roadside stalls, Old Town White Coffee, The Chicken Rice Shop, Starbucks, Coffee Bean, Gloria Jeans)
Fast food: RM25-RM40 (Malls: McD, KFC, A&W, Yoshinoya, Carl’s Jr, Kenny Rogers, etc)
Casual Dining: RM30-RM120 (Malls: Sushi Groove, Tony Roma’s, Chili’s, Delicious, Kim Gary, etc)
Fine Dining: RM120-RM500 (Bangsar, Hartamas, KL: Seven Ate Nine, La Fite, El Cerdo)
Good food need not be expensive. Try to find lesser known choices that are good. This one you have to search around by yourself first. For example, in Sunway Pyramid Sushi Zanmai is tons better tasting and value for money than Zen even though it costs less, and they are walking distance from each other.
Pro-tip: If you really have no money, one of the more ‘experienced’ people I know suggests this: Ask her to eat first la. Go for coffee only lor.
Entertainment & Activities (RM50-RM150)
Because you have do something else before making out right?
Light Sports: (RM10-RM40): Bowling, Arcade, Batting, Archery, Pool, Snooker
Visual/Auditory: (RM10-RM80): Movie, Theatre Play, Philharmonic Orchestra
Exploratory: (RM5-Rm25): Aquaria, Planetarium, Petrosains
But seriously, when was the last time you took a girl to Petrosains for a date? Actually, it might be an interesting idea…I know of one guy who told me he made out in a planetarium, and another couple who got caught making out in Petrosains. WTF, in Petrosains! You’re supposed to be learning about the wonders of science, not of each other!
Pro-tip:
“There are security cameras in Petrosains, LRT lifts, and most major shopping complexes”.
Shopping (RM25-RM wtf)
Is she a shopper? I hope not…
Whatever you do…don’t get stuck with this: A trick I’ve heard before. The girl buys a whole bunch of stuff, puts it at the counter, then she says she has to go to the toilet. After that she calls you and she says she’s at another shop, just come over. The unspoken request she is saying: Pay for my stuff, then meet me there. This has actually happened from a story related to me, but not to me.
Assuming she asks you to buy a reasonable amount of items (and not assuming reasonable prices)
Phew: (RM25-RM150) Giordano, U2, Bossini, Hang Ten, Padini
Okay la: (RM150-RM500) Miss Selfridge, Topshop, Dorothy Perkins, Forever 21, Zara
Wah-lau: (RM300-RM500) Calvin Klein, Guess, Armani Exchange
Can Die Wei (RM500 - RM wtf) Fendi, Gucci, Prada,Coach, Juicy Couture, BCBG Max Azria, Zang Toi
Pro-tip: “Don’t buy expensive jewellry on a first date. Unless she’s a prostitute, or you’re a Datuk. Or both.”
Misc Costs (RM5-RM100-RM whatever)
This can include stuff such as water/drinks, parking, toll, condoms, abortion pills (if you forget to buy condoms), or even, being disowned by your family and beaten up by her dad (if you forget the last two items before this one).
Conclusion:
So, the cost of a date in the Klang Valley is…anywhere from RM50-RM500 per date. Multiply by the number of times you go out per month.
Okay la. Assuming you even manage to get it down to RM75-RM100 a date - going out an average 6 times a month would set you back…RM450-RM600. Yes, that’s roughly your petrol cost + your handphone bill per month.
You should allocate about a quarter, to half of your monthly salary. I suggest you get a credit card, a friendly Ah Long, or a better job, or a sugar mummy. I know it’s ridiculous, but so is the whole concept of dating.
At the end of the day, everything has a cost - it’s just whether it’s payable in paper bills…or through the tears and sorrow of a broken heart and endless regrets. May you lose more money than dignity!
Good luck!
Reader feedback: So, what do you think?
This is for the girls to answer: Is it the guy’s responsibility to foot the bill? How often on average (say, out of 10 dates) do you pay for stuff? How much does your boyfriend spend on you per month? (Tip: Try this - try to guess first…then later on ask him for his answer. Let us know BOTH figures). How long have you been dating?
Guys: Is this sadly so damn true? How much do you spend…and does she appreciate it? How long have you been dating?
Update, based on reader feedback:
DATING, YOU’RE DOING IT WRONG: Josh.my does not recommend the following: ‘my boyfriend always calculates verbally how much money he spends on an average date with me.’ Wah lau.
Rather, the correct way to do it is to either keep a mental tally, or an account ledger. Only bring it up if she mentions ‘How come you never buy me stuff?’. That’s how it’s done la.

The first question ever for the Ask Josh blog advice column has been submitted, and here it is!
Dear Josh,
What do I do if I find out that I’m losing sexual interest in my gf?
While she keeps coming on for me?
Yours, Desireless Dude in Damansara
Josh responds:
Sigh, of course the first question HAS to be about sex. Anyway:
I bet you're as sexy as these guys. No wonder your girlfriend cannot resist you.
First, let me say that this seems to be a rather uncommon problem, but not an impossible one.
And for most couples, it’s the other way around. Also, quite a lot of guys are probably jealous of you.
But anyway, there are a few things that can be done. To narrow down the scope a little, I’m going to assume a few things to answer your question:
- You intend to fulfill your duties as a boyfriend, and give her the badabing badabang that she deserves.
- You intend to continue in the relationship.
- You’re not allowed to get her female friends to join in.
- You do not intend to ‘outsource’ your duties.
- You’re not comfortable with the idea of her finding it elsewhere.
- You do not have erectile disfunction, and it’s a mental thing.
- I’m also assuming that she hasn’t suddenly become unattractive (eg gained lots of weight or doesn’t dress up anymore), but rather that your disinterest is the byproduct of a long term relationship.
There are a few things you can do as a couple:
For her to read:
Holly Jean, a fellow blogger has some good advice on how you can get your man started. This should be recommended reading for all females. It’s not your fault that your man is not turned on, but you can up the chance by:
- ‘Granny panties’ are a no-no. Put in some effort.
- Don’t expect him to be turned on immediately.
- Shouting ‘get it up! get it up!’ won’t work, and has the opposite effect. Be patient.
- Lick his ear.
Now, for you two to discuss as a couple:
Have you talked with your girlfriend what turns you on?
- Try it in the morning. It’s possible that by the end of the day you’re just too tired. And well, ‘morning wood‘ is a common thing, so you’re already like prepared.
- Variate. Without elaborating, let’s just say there’s more than one way to do it la.
- What I like to call, buffet style. Since she’s ‘always on’, ask her to give this a try: You just lay yourself out, and she helps herself to what’s there.
- Eliminate or enhance senses: Have you tried it in a sauna, a freezing air conditioned room, or totally blindfolded?
- Set a time limit: Ever wondered what you can do in 10 minutes? Set an egg timer or an alarm, and try to finish before time runs out! You know what they say about work - you can’t get it done unless you set a deadline.
- Roleplay: Have you ever considered this - you and your girlfriend go out in seperate cars, meet at some club, pretend it’s the first time you’re meeting each other, and then take her home as if it’s a one night stand? *
* I have tried this. It went very well, but at the end of the night she was tired and just went to sleep, destroying the point of the whole damn exercise. Sigh.
And for you:
Although this picture makes it harder, keep in mind the first tip. You must resist. Save it for when it counts.
Let’s just say that basically for men it’s a bit harder la - you must be ‘activated’ in order for the intercourse to happen. Here are a few tips to make sure you can stand up and be a man when it counts:
- Don’t self service. Really. While semen is like saliva (it won’t run out, did you know?), you’re less likely to be able to perform with a partner if you keep doing solo performances.
- Exercise. Improve your bloodflow. If you can’t find the time to exercise, fun physical activities like paintball, or capoeira, or futsal may work out well for you.
- Remember. Think back to a time when you were really turned on, and why, and recall it when you need to. Was it the situation? Were her parents in the next room? Was it her smell?
- Lastly - if you still just can’t get it up, there’s no reason why she should be left hanging. Just do what you can (be imaginative) and make sure she’s taken care of. Even if it takes you longer that way. Do it well enough, and she won’t mind that she’s not getting ‘full service’. Be a man, and do the right thing!
Desireless Dude in Damansara…hope this helps!
Blog readers, if you have any tips to contribute, feel free to add it in the comments.
Yours advicingly,
Josh.

So, where are you on the chart?
- So, where are you on the chart? Hetero is straight, homo you know la. Do you stand on the left or right or somewhere in between like ‘give me a drunk, hold my hand and I’ll take anything you can give?’ This is the Kinsey scale btw, go look it up.
Yes, that's me in one of the scenes in a play from my theatre days. Damn skinny right.
Prologue
Some of you may know that I used to act in theatre productions. Heard of the Actor’s Studio? I used to act in The Actor’s Studio at Dataran Merdeka. I got started by accompanying a friend to an audition for moral support. She didn’t get the part, I did. Sorry dear.
It is probably not a coincidence, that thespian (meaning actor) rhymes with lesbian. (meaing, er, girl who likes girls). The director was gay, the producer was gay, half the scriptwriters were gay, and half the cast was gay. And I think some of them didn’t know it yet, but they too, were gay.
In case you’re wondering, I’m not outing anyone here…most of them are pretty open about it. All in all, they were all pretty nice people, and it was a pleasure to work with them. It was a great experience, and I learnt a lot from everyone there.
Which brings you to the obvious question: Josh, how about you? I gave this matter some thought back then, and I figured, if I ever were to have turned gay, it would have been back then. But I like girls wayyyy too much. And seriously, more than one hairy body is trouble la. For me at least. So I’m straight (maybe slightly metrosexual though). Just so you know, I find lesbians particularly interesting to talk to. As we have a shared interest. Girls.
But whatever your thing is, go ahead man, this world is for all types who like all sorts of things.
The cast of rep16:21. I'm somewhere here I think.
Although, in the theatre production, I did play the part of a gay character with daddy issues who didn’t want to claim his prize of sleeping with a hot chick even though he was the top Boy Scout (it’s a pretty complicated and funny story, based on true events of the writer who wrote the part).
So, yes, on to the story...
So how do you know if you are gay? The simplest question to ask yourself:
So, someone, let’s call him Mr XXX. We were on the way to rehearsals, he was driving.
So of course, we were talking about rehearsals, the production, etc. At one point though, the conversarion took a serious turn, and Mr XXX asked for some advice.
Mr XXX: Josh, how do you know if you are gay?
(I thought for a few before I figured out the answer to his question. And then I answered, based on something I’ve either heard before, or something that just struck me as common sense.)
Josh: Well, Mr XXX, when you um, pleasure yourself in a sexual manner, what gender is the person you’re thinking of? Your body is pretty sure of what it likes, I guess.
There was a long pause before he replied.
Then he said…hesitantly, with some worry in his voice - ‘But…but…Are you sure, Josh? Really?’
At that point, I was quite sure he knew the answer, and perhaps it wasn’t what he hoped it to be. I mumbled a reply, I can’t remember what I said and I shifted a little in the passenger seat. We never spoke of that again.
From what I know he seems to be doing quite well in the theatre scene now…so, great for him!
So now, you know how to answer the question on your own orientation. Good luck with that. The ancient Greeks, they believed in falling in love with people instead of genders by the way. Remember though, that people of both genders, regardless of sexual orientation, have equal potential to be assholes.
And lastly…the launch of ‘Ask Josh’, the advice column on josh.my
Anyway. Which brings me to my last point. About 10 years ago, I had an advice column. On my very first website. Hosted on Xoom. Which is now dead. While I think my traffic was about 0-10 visitors a day, I did get quite a fair bit of submissions. People wanted advice for some reason, and I answered it. It was good for both of us I believe.
So, I’m thinking of bringing back that idea. I don’t claim any special expertise other than the fact that I provide an opinion different from your own, and I’ve done it before about ten years ago. Oh, and I read a lot of blogs, that might count. Disclaimer: Trusting random bloggers for advice is not always a good idea.
Submit your lonely, broken hearted, relationship, corporate or home & garden questions to me via this blog (just leave it in the comments, with your real e-mail address if possible and I will moderate it so it’s hidden. (You can comment as usual as you wish on this post, but please denote if it’s a question for ‘Ask Josh’ if you want it to be hidden in the comments, any pseudonym you would like to use and and it will be answered on this site eventually). So, ask away!
