@Carl-Richard I do take this as an excuse to unleash suppressed emotions onto people, if I'm being completely honest. I tell myself that if I decide to go find and slap the dude's ass, it was his own doing because he should have expected it. If this takes me to jail, so be it. But I don't see how I'm looking out for my own ass here. Other than not being dumb enough to actually act out on these thoughts.

This is how I was raised and expected to behave every single fucking day of my life because of people who never got a good taste of their own medicine! Who is going to enforce justice here? It's not like society or government cares much about the "little" things.

I know it isn't. My problem is I don't feel like it isn't (ever since having several realisations).

I'd be careful. Cults are always helpful initially...

@Carl-Richard I wouldn't feel better if I were to just talk about this to someone. It does help, but it never releases ALL the negative energy.

Why should he care about social responsibilities?

Hard to tell. Maybe post this in the mental health section?

@IAmReallyImportant As long as you don't beat yourself up about it. My best mate actually has a hard time picking up on emotions because he's in his logical thinking mode a lot more. You ever talked to someone about this? Yeah, this sounds like victim mindset. I notice this in me too from time to time. People are actually like mirrors.

You're killing me, bro ?

I know what you mean. But don't underestimate the more counterintuitive approach of not caring about balancing the odds You actually stick out more the less you're trying to control the outcome. Being a little mystical sparks her emotion more than the average guy trying his hardest to build a connection with yet another meaningless word salad.

Heard so too. My friend has dates all the time via Bumble.

@something_else There's just too many factors to take into account as to why they suddenly ghost. You also have quite a few girls on dating apps who are still in relationships. You can still build rapport first, but the goal should be to set up a date, time and place to meet and then go about your life purpose. If she's flakey about going on a date just tell her to shoot you a message if she changes her mind and send her your number. This has worked really well. Almost all of them texted me some days later.

@bloomer I am guilty of this. And I'm enjoying it more than I used to. Some millenials seem to already see other people as "NPCs" without going through an existential crisis when basically looking through the lens of solipsism.

@Danioover9000 You a beast. What's your MBTI?

@John Paul ✌️ And your approach still backfires with those who show interest initially?

@IAmReallyImportant I think I know what you're getting at. Do you have both cognitive and emotional empathy?

@bloomer I absolutely despise work. Work just never worked for me. I don't see the point in it either. At least working for someone else. But then again, if I left society and the government behind, I would actually end up having to work more. Regarding taxes: imagine you get into an accident, can't move and don't have any rescuers risk their lifes to save you.

Now imagine how fun they themselves are going to be in person...

@Zeroguy There's many narcissists in psychology. I'd give Tyler the benefit of the doubt.

Haha dude, wtf is this logic!?

@IAmReallyImportant Cognitive empathy doesn't give much insight into someone else's experience, so you can only take a guess. Emotional empathy is important for intimacy. It's also important for healing people's suffering. But it depends on your personality whether this is important to you.

@KH2 Just use 9gag.

@Emotionalmosquito Would you want to be with someone like her?

@Someone here So you never had a dream where you died and immediately transitioned into the next scene? Always woke up from sleep?

Not always. You could have another dream or nightmare.
