I haven't looked into it yet. Maybe I won't. If I somehow regain the interest and look into it someday, I will remember to give you my thoughts. But I'm not happy with you. I expected better.

I didn't see it. Bad faith in real time.

You didn't just point out a performative contradiction. You've made a whole bunch of assumptions contradicting my stated truth. My truth: I left because I got bored. Simple, direct, and clear. You assumed: He's pretending to have left because he's defeated. He's lying. He's poisoning the well. He's tactically calculating to win the argument. He's bringing up the cult possibility as an ad hominem to the topic.

You don't have to drop your integrity just because you view the dating space as a lawless jungle. It's not very mature, or is it now? 🤥

Yes. Although, you didn't just disagree. You insisted that I had ulterior motives despite me telling you the truth unfiltered. You've crossed boundaries, and that's disrespectful. That's gaslighting. I never disagreed with your dreams. Never denied that they happened. I only ever disagreed with your interpretations of them. However, I did point out that your memory of dreams is unreliable. And I still stand by that point. My memory is unreliable too. I'm bored with the original topic. Doesn't mean I can't make meta commentary. I get that you're upset for some reason. But that's like the worst ad hominem meltdown I've seen in years 😂

Yeah sure anything can happen. Anything can be true. You're talking about the realm of possibility and potential. But potential is not actuality.

Bad faith is believing your assumptions over my clearly stated truths. I said I left because I got bored. You didn't believe me, and you insisted that I have ulterior motives. It's very disrespectful, but it's only one example, and you did it more than once. In contrast, when I assumed that your belief in the paranormal was about feeling special, and you clarified that for you it isn't, I never brought it up again. I accepted your stated truth as it is. That's the difference between good faith and bad faith.

I have that attitude internalized so deep in my psyche, I can't even stop scanning for evidence even if I try. I explained above that's how my mind works. I've successfully deleted many delusions and beliefs from my mind. Except this one. It is a sticky one.

I just need one clear example. Not a bunch of examples clouded with ambiguity.

This part is what I have an issue with. To call it an experience seems too generous. Most people ignore the fact that events happen without a clear relationship between them. Then the mind fills in the gaps. It's clear to me that this is the case when I observe how sense making works. There's literally no experience of such phenomenon. There's separate events, and a made-up mental link that connects them together. That's it. Anything beyond that is an assumption.

Possibly. However, lack of good faith destroys.

@Natasha Tori Maru I want psychic phenomenon to be real. But it just isn't. My mind is constantly scanning for evidence. There's none that satisfies me.

Yeah, and I'm not sorry. I thought you had something to show. Turns out it's just more of the same. Nothing new or groundbreaking. Just.. disappointment.

@Natasha Tori Maru 🙏🏻❤️

@Natasha Tori Maru Oh, sorry to hear that. Sounds like you've earned every bit of your healthy mental state. Hope you feel similarly about your physical state soon. Stay strong 🙏🏻

Beautiful!

Feels like you've reached an unusual level of living in the moment. Most people aren't like that, especially women. Must feel really good being in your shoes.

@Carl-Richard Well, even if psychic abilities exist, you clearly don't possess them. You misread everything about me even after I clarified. Technology is giving you the correct signals in literal text format, and you're ignoring them and trusting your psychic delusions trying to read behind the scenes. You have to understand that I am not obliged to engage if I don't feel like it. I never forced you to reply or demanded that you reply quicker. You can go back and see. You have to make your peace with the fact that I am a person with a free will. You have to grow up. It's fine, though. Luckily for you, I'm not the person to determine what truth is for you or for anyone. Like I said multiple times before, you can believe whatever you want. It's none of my business. Just keep in mind that it's also not your job to convince me. You've made this discussion about me instead of about making your case evident. You've made convincing me your life project. The frustration you're experiencing is the natural consequence of the dynamic you created.

So, she folded quickly. I think you should look into it instead of just being happy with the result and insight you got about abundance (even though you're right to be happy). In general, if a girl folds so quickly just because she's afraid to lose a guy she just met, that must indicate something deeper, like scarcity or insecurity or poor boundaries or a combo of said things. But in this case in specific, it seems like she was testing your scarcity and abundance, given her reply about clinginess. Going forward, you should expect more tests and more manipulation from this girl. And I think you should decide beforehand if you are willing to put up with that kind of behaviour, and if so, you should ground yourself in healthy boundaries and not bend to her games.

@Joseph Maynor

Well, what do I know? I'm just a miserable separate self

No one said this

I didn't laugh though. Must be tough for you picking up girls with humour Yeah. Divorce rates are higher than ever. People are hardly lasting in monogamous relationships. It's the reality.

It is accurate. Long term intimacy trumps everything else. Women are emotional junkies. For the short term, yes it might be something deeper, like trauma or something else.
