4ofN Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 It's funny. Sleeping with someones ex doesn't seem like as much of a problem for me. The problem for me was that Raj slept with Penny when he 1. knows that Leonard has been mooning over Penny for years, 2. knows that Leonard was crushed when Penny dumped him, 3. knows that Leonard's current girlfriend was about to move half way around the world (possibly crushing him again), and 4. has just been told by Penny that she still has feelings for Leonard. If Raj had any honor or feelings of friendship towards Leonard, he would have told Leonard that perhaps Penny was open to getting together again. Instead Raj thinks "oh, Penny is vulnerable, I think I'll hit that". The fact that Penny was Leonards Ex is a minor point for me. Oh god, oh god, oh god. What have I done????? I've let myself get caught up in it again!!!! Bad 4ofN bad! Leave it alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbolt Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Except Leonard and priya were going try to have a long distance relationship, I don't get why the ex is a focal point, it's almost like if I can't have her no one else can either plus it sounds like she's his possesion, but they did kid of ruin raj even if nothing happen techinically, besides why would raj tell Leonard about her feelings towards him if she's not going to tell Leonard then he should she probably told her in secret. Let's not act like Leonard has been the most loyal friend either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonsayz Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Didn't raj say hands off my sister when priya made her first apperance I believe so, he said it to HOWARD. Leonard already showing Priya where's the bathroom. you don't date raj's sister when he said in the cafetria hands off, sisters are different because as an older brother he was being protective... sorry it takes two to start a relationship. Priya gave in. heres an example, Sheldon's sister. He was being "protective", but at the end it was up to Missy to decide. Well maybe you need to watch the pilot 6-7 more times, penny went to sheldon's board called him a beautiful mind genius guy and smiled at him and then later sat in his spot and he said that's my spot she patted the spot beside him and tittled her head and said why don't you sit next to me if that's not flirting I don't know what is because that was obivious flirting thats not flirting because well theres only so many seats available. She didn't want to get up out of that spot and Sheldon basically whined and shes like come sit next to me. that's not flirting. she took his spot and he told her in a statement that it is his spot. she had to lighten the atmosphere. if you think that is flirting, then you must think that the dead hooker upstairs was having sex with them. you seem to bring up situations to make your point, but those situations wouldn't be so valid since you tend to miss some of the main details I don't get why the ex is a focal point, it's almost like if I can't have her no one else can either plus it sounds like she's his possesion it's the focal point because you just don't do that type of shit to your close friends. we aren't making it out as if Penny is a possession, rather it is the PRINCIPLE behind it. Penny had sex with Zack, everyone (as in us fans) was okay with it because he wasn't part of the Group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarah7 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Doesn't it? Remember Amy thinking she made Leonard fall in love with him and would have to let him down. Sheldon karate chopping Leonard and saying, "she isn't for you?" What happened to that plot line? It's like it never happened and had nothing to do with the main back story. I don't think this is inconsistence, or that it was intended to be a 'plotline'. Amy said she will dismiss Leonard the next day via email, so I guess she did. And I guess Sheldon being territorial was just the first hint to something that could be developed in a future, not necessarily with Leonard, since we know Amy is not interested in him and viceversa, perhaps we will see Sheldon jealous again, seeing Amy with someone else, we have already seen he was not happy at the idea of her being with another guy, that was the point of that scene.

cbolt Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Simon made you need glasses or you just want to see things the way you want too see them, his spot had nothing to do with anything yo her she was flirting with Sheldon if it was any heavier she would had jump his bones, she wanted him to sit by him, maybe you need to watch a flirting video on you tube or get glasses No Alicia was flirting with the guys to have them do things for her, if the principle applies to the ex it does the sister as well not sure how you can compare the Missy situation to priya total opposite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was they don't write the show as a series. It's written one episode at a time. They may never revisit that plot line because it was just for that show. According to Molaro they do no have an ongoing back story that they stay true to. They write each episode on its own merits. I think basically they are unconcerned when an episode doesn't fit with other episodes. That particular episode sort of left a cliff hanger but it will not likely ever be resolved.

And i am with my girlfriend, and before her i saw 3 other girls and before them i was in a 7 year relationship. No Alicia was flirting with the guys to have them do things for her, i know she was flirting with them to do things...im just exaggerating if the principle applies to the ex it does the sister as well not sure how you can compare the Missy situation to priya total opposite it's not opposite Missy is Sheldon's sister Priya is Raj's sister they are both SISTERS of two of the close friends in the SAME GROUP im sorry but you start to not make much sense and whatever i throw out you just seem to rebuttal with nonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbolt Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 There's a difference between flirting and wanting to have sex all I said is she flirted with Sheldon there's a difference between that and wanting to date him she was flirting with him maybe interest on her spot leading up to him explaining his spot to her and to her he was a cute tall new neighbor before he revealed himself to her of his weirdness, maybe you and your friends can't help being wrong if it was any other guy you'd think she was flirting with him but you can't wrap it around your brain that penny flirted with Sheldon at the beginning, Sheldon not wanting the guys be with Missy is different he's not protective until it was pointed out that they didn't have superior DNA like him, raj is a overprotective brother don't you think if I was wrong I'd know it Since when is calling a guy a beautiful mind genius guy and patting the cushion in a flirty manner and saying come sit next to me not flirting, now if she just said you're one of those genius' maybe And Simon I don't see things how I want to see them I see things that are obivious , I read obivious female body language and interactions. at 4 of n That's not normal chatting or interractions with someone you've just met I didn't say she wanted to sex with him there's a difference between flirting and that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

netmouse Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Just on the flirting thing from the pilot... Penny smiling and offering Sheldon to sit next to her wasn't flirting. It was simply a display of Penny's girl next door qualities. If her offering Sheldon a seat next to her was flirting, then what was openly standing in the loungeroom in front of 4 complete strangers wearing nothing but a towel?? I know Penny acknowledges her mild embarrassment during this scene, but she still sticks around to finish her question about the shower. It's not flirting... it's just Penny.

cbolt Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Not sure what the towel had anything when she didn't really do anything in that scene. You can be friendly with someone and still be flirty what's the difference between what Alicia did and what penny was acting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonsayz Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 cbolt, so far 2 other people agreed with me on the flirting part...enough said there you have it, you rest my case about the sister part sheldon wasn't at first but UNTIL IT WAS POINTED OUT. so he was still protective in just the scientific term raj is overly-protective which at the end it is still a SISTER. not a LOVER get through your head that dating sisters are okay have you watched Friends? Chandler (Ross's bestfriend) and Monica (Ross's sister) - He was overly protective of her they dated and married in the show. However, when Ross's ex-lover, Rachel, was about to be with Joey, he didn't like it one-bit...the fans didn't like it, so they had to fix it up im not exactly a lover-expert, but i do know what is flirting more than you do and people on this board can agree that the pilot was not flirting..it was friendly chatting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbolt Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Simon don't compare friends with TBBT not the same, she had flirty tendicies towards him, just because you don't want to believe doesn't mean it didn't happen, if I had a friend like penny that was one of my friends ex I date her only if she made a play for me first Don't you think if I was wrong I'd know it So if penny wasn't flirting then you believe Alicia wasn't with the guys either, I can do this all day If you never saw the show and started with the pilot and knew nothing about the show you would assume she was flirting and she didn't just say come sit by me it was the way she acted body gestures and the tone of her voice You l/p fans just don't want to admit that penny looks at another guy but Leonard even if in a non romantic way The xxx prady would've happen with or without her in the towel, a hot blonde that hangs out with 4 guys perfect for that What was it that Leonard said he couldn't have wine when penny offering him some in her apartment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aviodingtherealworld Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 im not exactly a lover-expert, but i do know what is flirting more than you do and people on this board can agree that the pilot was not flirting..it was friendly chatting Agreed Penny wasn't flirting... That is her personality. At the point in the show she has no clue of all of Sheldon's rule and his wondering why in the world he is saying that is his spot, so to take away the tension Sheldon is creating she uses her personality to talk to him. It's not flirting Since when is calling a guy a beautiful mind genius guy and patting the cushion in a flirty manner and saying come sit next to me not flirting, now if she just said you're one of those genius' maybe And Simon I don't see things how I want to see them I see things that are obivious , I read obivious female body language and interactions. at 4 of n That's not normal chatting or interractions with someone you've just met I didn't say she wanted to sex with him there's a difference between flirting and that 1. Patting the cushion was not in a flirting manner 2. beautiful mind genius guy is relating back to a movie about a genius that is insane, so according to that Penny is guess Sheldon is super smart but crazy 3. Don't judge one female's body language for all of them 4. For Penny that is normal chatting. She's use to acting and talking the way she does to get what she need and in the polit she is trying to use their shower and see if they will go get her tv back 5. Lastly, She was not flirting You l/p fans just don't want to admit that penny looks at another guy but Leonard even if in a non romantic way She looks at tons of guys, we know that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonsayz Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 yeah it's not the same show, but the IDEA IS THE SAME. and it's not about believing, i can say the samething for you. so far not one person here has agreed with you Alicia was flirting because she said she never had such cute technicians before she said CUTE and same way this thread's episode when the girl said Leonard is cute, that is flirting penny just simply said why don't you sit next to me... i know you can do this all day because you don't understand and you are stuck in your world this will be my last post regarding our little debate, all you do is spit out nonsense and refuse to look at it in a logical pov.

simonsayz Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 @Aviodingtherealworld, thank you for posting some more back ups he thought that the comment on the "a beautiful mind" was a form of flirtation... sighh it makes me sad but back to the this episode..i saw it 3 times and i just love "BAZINGA PUNK, now we're even" i think Jim was trying not to laugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbolt Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 It can be a one side of flirting I never said Sheldon was, @avoiding but Alicia being around the guys does then since penny hadn't been around guys like that it's the same, But I do see a double standard when it comes to Leonard he can date or do whatever he wants it's okay but if someone else or one of the guys does something it upsets Leonard it's not okay, let's no act like Leonard is innocent and he's not exactly the greatest friend either don't you think if I was wrong I'd know it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonsayz Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 we never said or act like leonard is innocent what double standard? Leonard he can date or do whatever he wants it's okay but if someone else or one of the guys does something it upsets Leonard it's not okay ok, which part are you talking about that if one of the guys did something that upset Leonard? and you might have forgotten. Leslie and Howard slept together, Leonard was fine with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
