Don't be like a "questionnairee" on a date or even meeting for the first time. It will sound like an interview. Questions yes, but let them flow and allow for her to open herself up to you without using too many questions. How do you do this? Well, talk about yourself a little bit (not too much for coming off too self-centered), then say "how about you", after you told her you like sushi, say how about you. Make it light and at with ease. I love to dance, do you, I like salsa, it makes me feel alive. Maybe we'll go sometime if you'd like that, then pause to let her answer. Learn how to mimic her body language somewhat without it being obvious. If she smiles, smile back, if she crosses her legs, stand in the direction it is crossed to face her. I mean, don't make it seem as if you're interviewing her for a future relationship candidate. Crack some decent jokes but let it flow and just talk about life in general and not too much about yourself or her. That's how you engage without being too awkward and repelling.

Lol. Not so soon, buddy. Slow it down. It's nothing to do with protective of family more protecting of oneself. Not sure about Chinese culture, but somethings are just Universal. Nothing wrong with asking about the fam but there's a time and a place for everything and a first date just ain't one of them.

You should have been a poet.

Hehe.. Too much logic and studying and trying to "figure" things out in order to control outcomes. Reality has a way of kicking us in the ass because of it's spontaneous nature and also polarity.

Cool song but you didn't have to go there.😂

This is what studying certain things can do, we try to apply it to situations that we think is so and take it out of context because of lack of discernment. If a guy asks me for pictures of my family and inside my home that I just met and i refuse and block him, that doesn't equate to me having an avoidant attachment style, it means i'm exercising my God given right to choose who I allow into my space and reject what I'm not comfortable with. Do you think all those happy couples out there ever since the dawn of time and up till now knew anything about attachment style, much less to evaluate a potential date before hand? This is a prime example of how knowing too much can hurt instead of help us. Too much logic. Too much evaluating. This isn't even using logic anymore it's downright obsession. Might as well find out what their break-up style is while you're at it.

How about it's the Self that's experiencing Infinity; but, there's a price to pay. Nothing is free, there's always a give and take.

Maybe that's what's needed for new ideas, change, love and freedom. It's called Polarity. Can't know stupidity if wisdom doesn't exist and vice versa. Nothing is really being held back, there's no rush in what is at play here in the Universe. Acknowledge both as valid.

Great point.

Tears were running from my eyes reading that. Don't know why. I wasn't really crying, because I didn't make myself do it, the tears were just slowly flowing. I tried to stop them and said, fuck, but they kept on flowing as I kept reading. Something inside of me felt every word. This is crazy. I never sobbed once, nor made a sound. Just soft, flowing tears, enough to make my nose run. I couldn't help it. Don't know why.

Ok, so there are exceptions to your rule. I get it.

This is not true. There are people who deliberately hurt themselves. It's called NSSI (Non-suicidal Self Injury). They don't want to die but they hurt themselves for whatever reason. They deliberately cut themselves to the point of bleeding and some even get sexual gratification from doing so. Humans are sick fucks. Aren't babies and toddlers humans.

Beautiful.

I'll tell you what you did wrong. Don't ask a girl you just met to show you pictures of her family and inside her home. Why do you need to see all that. If I just met a guy and he asked me that, I would run the other way too. Guys even ask me to send regular (not nude), pics to their phones and I even deny that if I don't know them. You might not understand how girls have to be over-protective of themselves because of safety reasons, not saying you will harm her or her family but she doesn't know that; and i bet her family were the ones who told her to cut ties with you. She might not have been that interested in you but most girls won't even let you walk them home if they're not at least a little bit interested, so maybe it's because she was uncomfortable with you asking for those pictures. I'm saying this so next time you be a little more cautious in what you ask girls for if they don't know you and didn't suggest it first. These guys will blow that off as nothing, but as a female I'm telling you it was very inappropriate; and, not saying you have to be on p's and q's every time you're with a female; and believe it or not, asking for a kiss or a hug would have been better received than to ask for pictures of inside her home and family. The former is a regular occurrence and all she had to do was say yes or no, but the picture thing is not, and drew suspicion, that's why.

It is his truth. Negativity alone can exist within relative truth. Nothing Absolute in whatever he's saying. In his mind it is true.

I'm not going to debate anyone about God or nothingness or what a word is nor belief systems. I AM that, Whatever that is. I didn't ask to be here, so who or whatever created me or whatever the term is dreaming me up or i'm dreaming myself up or God tricking itself, or you antagonizing me or whatever, is not going to change anything. I'll continue to do what I love in this field for curiosities' sake ask a question or two about someone's take on things, but I won't get into any endless debates about God. This is something i love and debating the topic to prove myself right or someone wrong or to try and save someone from hell is not a part of the plan. It becomes pointless to argue about Infinity because it includes every possible thing there is and delusion is a part of it. All I'm concerned about is the ever-present presence that isn't concerned with all this chitter chatter and continuing to enjoy my learning about whatever it is that I enjoy learning. Certain things are obvious to me and one of them is the never-ending back and forth about the nature of existence that will not change anything because it just IS. That is also the essence of Infinity. I don't know how, apart from gravity, how I'm holding myself up on a spinning planet that goes around at a speed I can't even fathom, yet I'm all balanced and able to live and survive all these years with no prior blueprint. You can go ahead and baffle your brain about if nothing does or doesn't exist and if you're going to die believing in nothingness, but I didn't worry about my birth so I'm not going to worry about my death. Its all taken care of as far as I'm concerned because I don't even know how to make my heart beat. P.S. When I replied, "ok, got it" It didn't mean i agreed or disagreed, it meant I understood what he was saying from his perspective. Why argue with someone's perspective. This is Infinity, where all perspectives are valid even yours. Doesn't mean it's the Absolute Truth.

Ok, got it.

Because they understand what Reality is. That's why. It's subjective. We live in a subjective Universe and the Spiritual Philosophers and highly conscious Spiritual thinkers and gurus are too busy deciphering and trying to better understand and teach about meta physics, brain waves, the observer effect, how the mind works, what are thoughts, how did existence occur, the quantum field, what is Infinity, how our beliefs create our Reality, how to draw from the Infinite field of possibilities to heal the body and mind, I could go on. They left the 3d world and it's conditions and problems up to the 3d mindsets to talk about the worldly problems and are concentrating more on existential nature of Reality and they also know that there is no outside world but only what is being created by the mind and they also recognizes the Infinite nature of existence which means everything exists but we have the power to shape our Reality and to only experience things within our Awareness that we are focused on and that our attention is very important and what we give our attention to is what grows and expands and will begin to shape a world within us that we will start to see in our experiences. That's why it's not talked about by these people because they have awoken to WHAT IS and not what could be or what has been. When you've expanded your Awareness enough to understand what I'm pointing to here you will understand; until then, you will come back with rebuttal statements and tell me to be real, this is Reality and people are getting shot and life sucks. I remember you telling me how you don't believe in this stuff and i also remember you with the same sob stories and every time you make a post it is something negative, Why? That's your Reality and you're sticking to it. Notice everything OP said were things he didn't directly experience but what his mind interpreted as real. What he saw on the news and how he thinks that and what he thinks about this thing and how his fantom kids would suffer and how the world is cruel, while just typing on a machine. P.S. I am not denying the suffering of the world and all the atrocities that goes on, let's be clear about that. Thanks.

Don't be fooled. Some of these drinks can be worse. BAI is like straight up poison. I wouldn't trust this drink. Next time show the ingredients, but I stay away from them all. I buy the real aloe vera leaf (the large one like I posted in the healthy foods mega thread and eat the meat straight from it. To quench my thirst, i drink kombucha or water. I buy nothing else except for an occasional ginger ale if kombucha is not on hand and I want that fizz. I may only drink it like 5x/yr if that. I don't buy any juices other than Knudsen brand. I mean go ahead if it's not a regular consumption but don't think it's better and then go indulge.

I've listen to some but not all. The first few maybe 6 or so, I have saved to my YT library and listened to, but the rest are in the making; and I also save them in my library. They are hrs long, so it takes for some preparedness and relax mode and I'm, usually preparing food or doing dishes or eating or doing something relaxing to listen to in it's entirety because of the length and I listen in increments if they are really long like 5 or more hrs, sometimes shorter, those will take days. 3hrs or less I'll listen to straight. I'd be on my laptop fishing around or playing a game while listening to the books on my phone. Thats how I get them in. As long as I'm not doing anything that requires much thinking so I can focus on what's being said. The regular "Powerful" one though, with the videos, I've watched them all. 90% of the time before I post them and the other 10% of the time I watch immediately after posting or shortly thereafter. Those ones are because I just know they're gonna be good because of either the title or the host. Once or twice I've posted a video that after I watched, i didn't like that much then I remove it, but that's rare.

@Water by the RiverThank you.

This makes no sense. The word God is not God. God is not even God because that's a noun and also a verb. It is just pointing to something. Words cannot express the Infinite it can only point to it. I know you said that but you still said "there's only one word ". Saying that in addition to what you've said is like saying "God named itself God and that's the only word that really exists, because every other word means God". That would also imply duality - God and the word God.

How do you know what your brain cells on weed looks like. Seems like they're on weeeed right now. Hehe

Welcome to Infinity.
