Formal, in formal. I am just trying to avoid being physically attacked at the precise moment that I should be contented.

Quanto?

Que no es lo que dice el foro.

Acabo en su boca.

Cola?

Gracias. ¡hasta luego

It does make perfect sense to me as a question: 'Don't you want to? ' 'Doesn't it turn you on?'

I added the punctuation marks as it is mostly used that way but no exclusively. Example."Vos no te animas a caminar solo por la calle de noche.". You don't dare to walk alone on the street at night. Here, of course, the translation would only be "Don't dare"

¿No te animas? ' It's slightly more than "wouldn't you like?" and a little less than "wouldn't you dare?" Use, for example: You ask a girl to come to your place. ¿Queres venir a mi casa? And she is not in the mood so she answers "¿No te animas a venir a mi casa?" (Don't you fancy coming to mine?)

It's perfectly correct Spanish by the way.

"Guerra" means war and it's very commonly used as a synonym for sex. This comes from the saying in Spanish "Cuando la mujer se pinta, como el indio, quiere guerra". "When a woman puts on make up (war paint) , like an Indian, she wants war" (to put on make up or war paint are both "pintarse" in Spanish).

So "guerra" is used to indicate a more physical, hot, passionate sex. But be careful, it doesn't necessarily mean violent sex.

I have never heard that one. I don't think it means blondie, which is 'huera' or 'güera, ' because even Spanish speakers who are poor spellers usually get single r and double rr correct because they sound so different. I bet it means 'loca en la cama, ' but maybe in some particular way that I am not familiar with. I could probably tell by reading some of the local fora but I ain't got time for that right now.

Animarse, as opposed to animar, means to cheer yourself up so I don't see why you would suggest your friend not cheer herself up, which means that in the sentence 'No te animas, ' te is an indirect object pronoun and not a reflexive pronoun, and it doesn't make sense to me either way.

But most people say "no tengo ganas" for not feeling up to it. Te here clearly refers to the receiver.

"No te animas"

Google translate shows it simply as "you dare" but somehow doesn't sound right from context of text I got

Sentence here is "Quien quiere guerra nocturna?"

She doesn't have pink nipples but is light skinned. Seems though the context is something else. She's askin here who wants whatever is a night "guerra" and in other guy posts I've seen them write in their xp with a chica as a positive that she was guerra or had guerra etc

No idea unless it's something like "who wants a war at night." I don't know, we need one of the others on this.

Ex. El servicio fue bueno pero no es lo que busco, quiero guerra, que me incentive a garchar.

To the usual language pros. What's the contextual meaning of this locally? Someone who is less passive and all over you? Like some chick in heat?
