  4. There is so much hypocrisy in this post that it's just unbelievable and frankly very upsetting. Didn't I just saw a bunch of threads in this section where so many guys keep rating women as a 2 or 4 or 6,sometimes even decimals, 7.5 and 9 out of 10 or 10 out of 10 and all of this rating simply based on looks because these men haven't met the girl but they use that rating to decide whether to approach the girl or not. By this logic most men would not even care to give a second look to a woman who they think is a 4. Because they want someone 7 and above. And keep in mind that this is before meeting the person, just judging from far based on appearance. So she could have a great personality but still get skipped only because she didn't come with a genetic lottery, she didn't come with the LOOKS. And how many times have I seen men hanging out with their 9 out of 10 woman and she has a shitty personality and yet it is okay with them because they can parade her like a prize aka trophy girl. So her personality doesn't matter to them as long as her looks are charming. And you guys still expect for women to simply swallow this cruel rating system and sulk and not even complain about it because it's REALITY and Truth and FACTS DON'T Lie and LIFE IS UNFAIR and just accept it and all these phrases are thrown at women and they are just supposed to suck it up and accept it because men decided it has to be this way and men will be men and so on and on. So many divorce happen because the man found someone prettier and younger and decided to dump his aging wife for her and somehow the wife is supposed to swallow the bitter pill because it's the nature of men or whatever and if she complains than she is jealous. So now you are baffled when women do the same to men? You are now surprised and upset and shocked when the tables are reversed. It's suddenly very cruel and awful and you want to sulk and whine about it meanwhile it happens to women all the time but it's not unfair, it's just men being men and wanting things their way. What a load of hypocrisy. Just like women have to deal with realities of life, learn to deal with it. You're right about that. I would choose a good looking man anytime. And why not? If men do it all the time, why shouldn't I? Feel the sulk. I can tell women are far less concerned about a man's looks at least not as much as men are. A woman can still compromise on the looks of a guy if he is really a good man to her. So give credit to women for accepting ugly men. Men are downright obsessed to the point of nausea. The billion dollar beauty and makeup industry doesn't exist for nothing We live in a superficial shallow society where looks are given preference over character and personality and values more than half of the time. Tell me if this is not true. Men would look past a woman who is intelligent, flirty or smart, funny because she doesn't fit the right look. She is not a 10. So she loses out. I'm glad you did that experiment. You are still on the better side as a man because I can tell you men don't have too harsh.. That's because even men in prison get women. Guess what, I spotted a beautiful woman yesterday with a really really ugly looking guy and I thought she could do better. There are loads of good looking women who just don't use their brains and fall for any loser guy out of emotions, they use their heart instead of the head. So men are still luckier because if you can manipulate with a smooth talk you can really get a good woman despite your loser looks. Yea we take you. Be glad. So quit the whining. Women have it 100 times worse. We get judged far worse and much more harshly and it's cruel but it's reality.
  5. Just be real. Just be yourself Pray pray pray... There's nothing else. Prayers might help it. Make it happen. February 3 was the dp date last time
  6. Money best spent is on books. Time best spent is on health. Of course you can travel but at least let the Coronavirus thing die down first. For me having a relationship with an American man helped me understand American culture better. My recommendation for travel would not be a country because I did travel to a lot of countries over the last few years but it didn't help much because you can't really stay there for a long time because of the expense of both traveling and accommodations. This actually is a hindrance. Because you only get a cursory glimpse of the culture and people and you aren't really diving into it, just touching the surface on your short trips. Like I was in the US for a few months and yes it was a great experience overall but I could not really get a lot to know about the people since you can't socialize much in such a short span of time. You just get a general picture of how things are and frankly things are pretty much the same in almost all major cities around the globe, like the same malls, the same brands, the same apartment styles, the same city culture etc etc.. So you aren't experiencing something unbelievable unless you are visiting the Maya civilization from the past. Fun traveling isn't a lot of learning. But what helped me was actually studying different cultures rather than visiting them on a short compact travel stashed with tight schedules. Read books on different religions, spiritual practices and go deep into their cultures. Read about their values and traditions. Improve your online communication and footprint. This helped me more than anything. Have relationships with people from other countries. There's people from other countries in my apartment and in nearby neighborhoods. So I easily get to bond with them. I invited an Italian neighbor to dinner once. Just mingling with them over time helps you learn a lot about their culture, behavior, thinking or mentality etc etc. Having a relationship with people from other countries in a safe zone helps in knowing them on a deeper level. This is a great revealing experience because you get to see how the cultural mentality works on a finer more subtle levels, the nuances that are reflected in their perspectives and how distinctly different they are from yours. Having an open mind helps a lot. So don't block yourself to any information, method, tradition or process by simply dismissing it as unnecessary or redundant. You have to be like absorbent sponge and soak in all the knowledge and perspectives and experience. Even if you are skeptical about it.. So read read read a lot. And socialize socialize socialize a lot. These are great ways of building your database on a finer level. Because most people just have a general information on everything. But a relationship or socializing opens different tiers of that same information that nobody else can know except you.. In the end, experience is king. So if you haven't really experienced something, you haven't really learned. You have only skimmed. You have to get exhausted learning about every nook and cranny regarding any new experience or tradition or system. Don't spend all your money at once because that won't be viable. Use it a bit at a time because learning is a gradual process even through socializing. So you'll always need some money saved for future learning. If you have time, spend it on 3 things ~ Learning ~ Total personal development - skills, health, personality, spirituality and mental health etc ~ a sustainable lifestyle long term and some fun and hobbies.
  7. With the competitive US market, getting or switching the job is a bit tough. So won't recommend you to quit your job. Do what you are already doing. Leave that place of your ex because it's an unhealthy influence and save some money and look for a shared rent place. Ask your friends. They could even let you stay for free with them for a month or something. Place an ad for roommates on Craigslist and share the rent you're going to have to pay at the new house. Don't go to your mom. She is charging a lot. California is not a good place either, at least for jobs and stuff. Lots of problems there. So my advice will be to stick to what you are doing. Also look for career or housing programs in your local area so that you can enroll for them. I'm sure there are lots. Programs that help people get on track for housing and career. Do a part time job on Sundays to save some extra money. This is all better than forever relying on someone. I hope you get rid of the student debt. The whole student debt thing is reckless and pointless and is eating America.

  10. February 24 Monday Day 22 of the no contact challenge. Day 8 of Implementation Days. February 2020 I kinda fell off the wagon for a few days.
  11. Love this
  12. Could it be a sign of mass bipolar disorder?
  13. You should get married to an Asian. Then getting married will be like going to Bermuda Triangle.
  14. If you think that's an example of modernness in India, then clearly you haven't been to India.
  15. Something is hurting my feet Sometimes it feels like it's on the outside like a knife on the skin Sometimes it feels like it's on the inside something shooting from my blood vessels. Really hurtful. Hope this pain ends. It's awful pain like inside outside both. I was fine just a while ago and suddenly I started to feel shooting Jabs in my feet and leg muscles It's like cutting through skin Awful
  16. You won't have any problems in India. Just don't pay too much for anything. Ask the standard rates for any service or booking. Because often it's inflated for tourists and visitors. And don't easily believe what a person tells you, reconfirm it from other people, lots of helpful people in India so you won't have a problem in mingling with people, you won't be considered rude for anything at all because Indians are extremely light Hearted and forgiving and warm, they will put you at ease. The only place you have to be careful with is where prices are involved because the sellers cheat or scam outsiders to profit. Like a ride tariff will be hiked. Don't drink or eat if someone offers because there are chances of getting drugged and robbed, this is common for any new place.. Eat only at hotels/restaurants. Don't accept a ride to someone's home or a secluded location, keep yourself in the crowd and mostly get your work done during daytime because things get riskier in lonely dark places. So finish everything by late evening so you don't need to go out in the dark. Locals can be a bit rude and untrustworthy. They are uneducated. Educated folks are way better and friendly and trustworthy. There's a huge difference in the kind of people you're dealing with in India because the diversity here is extreme in regard to social status, social class, money education, religion, culture, language. Hindi is not the only language in India although its the national language. It can be very difficult sometimes because even the locals don't understand hindi. So you kinda have to find your way around it. You always have to pick someone to translate things for you. Be in touch with the local police wherever you plan to live because if anything happens they're always there to help you out with safety and travel related issues like documention. In India we have lots of local guides. They are helpful. Contact these in every city and they will help a lot with finding places and getting stuff done. Everything is pretty much cheap so money won't be a problem. Negotiate negotiate negotiate. India is a place of bargains and negotiations. Initially everyone tries to inflate numbers, prices. Once you learn to negotiate and be patient, things get easier and the deal goes through. Hygiene is absolutely essential. A lot of the time, you could get diarrhea if you are eating out of a cheap restaurant, so get a good place that looks clean and it won't be a problem. You can always inform the waiter that you don't want spicy and they will customize the dish for your needs. Making friends will be very easy. So you can make loads of friends. But they should be the educated type.. No prejudice against the ones who aren't. But the safety is higher with educated or qualified ones here.. This is the most important. If someone talks to you about drugs (which is inevitable with tourists), like getting you a drug for cheap etc etc, just stay out of it because drug regulations are the toughest in India as in other countries in Asia. You don't want to get entangled in that. Drugs are a big deal. Most drugs are illegal and the punishment is severe. Do not fall for any bait because peddlers are often looking for outside folks who don't know the laws. That's all. You'll have a good stay I hope.
  17. Tinder app is a scam anyway. Most profiles are of shady scammy people waiting to trap someone to make money or use someone. Not to mention that tinder can also be a good source of Stds.
  18. I think life is based on 3 things A good life is when You are doing what you always wanted to do. Passion. You are doing what you should do.. Universal purpose. You have at least found someone who you can love forever. Finding or knowing a soulmate You're living with the person who you love and wanted to be with. Living with a soulmate.
  19. Here's a simple explanation: You were born, and someone gave you a name. You noticed everything and everyone around you, how they behaved, what worked and what didn't. You noticed what got rewarded and what got punished. You noticed what was appreciated and what was criticized. You noticed what was valued and what was devalued. And just like that, in all that noticing, you cast yourself into a mould that everyone around you put you in. That, is so gradual and unconscious, that you end up thinking, this is me. That you, the image you have of yourself is your personality. As an example: Ever since I was a kid, my mom would interrupt me whenever I tried to speak something. If someone asked me a question, she would answer on my behalf before I do. And then over a period of time, I felt it is not really a good idea to open my mouth. I retreated into a shell and became an introvert. I disliked being around people even though I could not pin point why. Then that became my personality - shy and quiet. Then I move out and go to college. I no longer have my mom around. I also get to do stuff that I find interesting. I am able to ask questions openly and answer them honestly. And people started saying I'm so confident. Then that became my personality. That is what a personality is. People at in my family have a hard time believing I am confident and outspoken. People at my college have a hard time believing I'm shy and quiet. None of these extremes is me. Both are acquired traits. Personality, the word, comes from 'Persona' meaning a 'mask'. So it is something that actually covers up your real face or the real you. How do you know what is the real you? When you let go of all your masks and stand naked. Decide which aspects of you are acquired and let them go. It's a hell of a process and hurts your ego a lot.
  20. Do not keep her in the dark. Her needing you should not be used as a crutch to rely on. Because ultimately it's betrayal from your side no matter how much she needs you. A lot of guys subconsciously defend being with a girl just because she is lonely or needy and they feel bad to leave her. Long term this thinking does more harm. So go ahead and break up with her even if it appears cruel to keep it straight and simple. Sooner or later she will adjust to her new reality and find her own ground and move on. You should be with her only if you really want to be with her. And if you really don't want to be with her, then you should just let her go. Honesty is the best policy..
  21. This guy is making some fantastic salmon canapes. Yumm. I will try these too.
