    Correct. You don't try to fly by flapping with your arms, because you know it wont work.

    Haha.  I'm not saying you should approach every girl you see walking down the street.  In fact, you might not have to "approach" at all.  Have you tried joining any spiritual meet-up groups, or other groups that interest you?  In these settings there's a chance you'll just naturally meet someone, without even trying.

    I know exactly how women work, but that doesn't help. 

    I know you must be smart to be a theoretical physicist, but that knowledge doesn't make me smart. I might also know that you must be good at this and that type of mathematics, but that knowledge doesn't make me good at those mathematics. It's all about talents which you are born with. If you don't have it since birth you are fucked for life, no matter how hard you try you wont become a theoretical physicist.

    Just guessing here, but, you don't approach many women, do you?  It's really not as impossible as you make it seem.  Maybe you got rejected a few times and so concluded that dating is hopeless for you?  But that's not true.  You probably just aren't applying yourself enough.

    Yup! She might find it cute for, um, a whole 2 weeks, then she would get sick of it quickly. 

    Women don't even like their own children hanging all over them constantly, let alone a grown man. 

    Yep.  Reminds me of one of my past relationships.  I would compliment her too much, text too much, and just generally try to inject myself into her life as much as possible.  She put up with it for a few months, but eventually she gave me the boot.

    @Beginner Mind I'd say looks, character, behavior and maturity play a huge role. 

    But most importantly willingness. No matter whatever the flaws,if the partner is ready to work on them,that's the only way a relationship will be fulfilled. 

    Things can be taken care of. But no willingness to communicate,sit down or discuss problems or no willingness to solve conflicts is a disaster and in such a case, everything from looks to achievements, talents, personality, character goes to the drain

    Agreed. Maturity and communication are also important.

    He wasn't booted, he left. At least I had read his last post which said he was leaving. 

    My understanding is, Leo basically told winterknight he should leave if he doesn't see things Leo's way, and then winterknight said he was thinking of leaving anyway.

    I didn't like it.  I thought it was cool how Leo was allowing him to do his thing here, but he obviously had a change of heart at some point.

    @Anna1 I'm putting my dating profile together and I'd appreciate your input on something.  A few years ago I had a psychosis episode and I was thinking of including that briefly in my profile.  Would that be too much information, too soon?  I don't wanna weird the ladies out, but I also want to be honest and also weed out anyone who might be turned off by my medical history.

    @Beginner Mind I'd advise you not to chat with women that live too far from you. Make an acceptable range and stick to it, this way once you make a connection you can make a irl date so that you aren't just some pixels to her.

    My sister had this rule and also would only chat for a week or two before saying she wanted to meet in real life. 

    The other reason for this is that you might think your building something "real" with them when they may just think of you as someone online they can chat with when bored or lonely, because they like your personality, but really they never had any intentions of making it "real life" with you.

    Yeah, ppl are assholes! (Men and women)

    Thanks for the tip but I'd rather not limit myself to just girls in my area.  I've been told by two psychics that my future wife will be from a different country.  Obviously nothing a psychic says is set in stone, but it's enough to make me consider dating girls from different parts of the world.

    I have not heard him say those words. My understanding of his teaching is that he would say something to the effect of, "Seeing the wave is really ocean doesn't negate the wave."

    Roger definitely teaches that after enlightenment the individual self remains intact, albeit with the understanding that he or she is not the one doing anything.  Roger confirmed it when I e-mailed him.

    @Beginner Mind You only think you have to be a dick. You need a balance between dickhead and nice guy. In reality confidence wins every time. Be yourself and try not to worry about how the woman perceives you because her perception of you is completely out of your control. Also it depends on intention. Are you looking for a girlfriend or are you just trying to fuck ?  

    Ultimately I want a relationship, but if some random sexual encounters happen along the way that's okay too.
