Thank you for your kind words, you sound a lot like a friend(male^^) whom i met online... he was a genuinely nice person who talked me out of a lot of things that were bad for me... he's kinda like an angel, whenever i need someone to talk to, he's there and best of all, i can talk freely without censoring myself for fear that i would offend someone and he would never judge me...
as to you age, i don't think you can be that old... just that wise. Jaben is definitely a stepping stone or in my words, a test, that i have to pass... i will try again this weekend and see how that goes... and what you said last, was classic Brian^^

I've got a new name! Brian, oh wait. I didn't tell you?

 
Anyway, you are most welcome. I'm not that angel, but if you need someone to talk to and I can spare the time, then I'll be around.
 
I'm 25 turning 26 and I'm about 4 - 5 years older than everyone my year in university. It makes me feel old just going to university lol.

Yup, apparently after i started this thread, Vanassa from Jaben sent me a message, it was very sweet of her and i was touched.

Good to hear that. I was thinking of dropping them a mail, but I'm glad they spoke to you and hopefully everything is sorted

 
What earphones are you looking at anyways? Or headphones for that matter.

IT. IS. TIME

I know this may sound very stupid but i have this weird phobia regarding males because of some bad experiences with the opposite sex in the past so when i went into Jaben today(i was so excited as i was like dreaming of this day cuz my schedule is usually packed so today was my only free day^^) and saw only like 6-7 males with the whole shop quiet and all, i freaked and ran as fast as i could out of there so it was like one foot in then before you can blink i was out of there...
 
please, please help me, i really want to try out the earphones there but with my heart thundering away in my chest that's kind of hard to do... i really need to get over that strange phobia...(probably why i'm in a girls' school...)
 
-sad-

Hi Alyssa,
 
If you feel it, then it's not stupid.  I just have to say that.
 
Something that helped me with various issues I had was the Emotional Freedom Technique. They used to have a direct link to a free manual, but now seem to require you submit your email address for a "Starter Kit". It does work and has with myself and a few people "reset" (the best word I can use to describe it) some serious emotional distress we had related to various issues.  While it wont magically cure you of anything, it made my life a lot easier.

I don't dare to step into Jaben either. Worried about my wallet

I'm yet to update my my review on it. I will when I get some time to properly acclimatise to the difference. I've just been lazy and running around trying to run some errands and get some equipment, but failing; and organising the meet in Perth. heh. Sorry!

heh. I'm waiting for a nice budget desktop DAC to come out now and that will be my last bit of spending for now I reckon.

It would appear that the wallet problem is recurring, no? Haha.
 
Anyhow, I do hope you'll get over the problem soon. Good luck!

Friday Night is coming...

 

[K.I. Unlimited]

What's happening this Friday?

 

[AhhHoNG]

If jaben is too much for you, try stereo at woodlands? There are females working there.

I think there's always some sort of party every Friday. I always get something like that in the Jaben notifications. No idea why I signed up for their email list. I live in the USA.
 
There should be a Jaben store here. Specifically in Chicago.

There's one in Europe isn't there?
 
Wish I could help the OP get over her fears. I've been told by my female friends (who make up a majority of my friends, strangely enough) I'm a harmless guy.
