Sure, but that requires you to step out of your comfort zone. That’s going to initially seem bad at first, but stick with it and you can reframe it as a good sort of bad.

I’ve found that the girl will guide me on doing that organically, rather than me putting up a front to attract her.

You should expect a far different experience whether you decrease or increase your dose. At least that’s how it is with me when it comes to substances. I’m very sensitive.

It’s like joining Tinder and expecting to make your new best friend on there. Not saying it’s impossible, but pushing yourself to find one on there is a misguided strategy. Another way to put it: I’ve had awakenings and deep insights while on this forum, but it’s a mistake to limit myself to having them only on here. I’m going on a hot date tomorrow and will be open to having them there as well.

Porn, video games, and gambling… they all seem innocent on the surface. All three can turn into addictions, although most who engage in those activities won’t become addicted. Nevertheless, the impact of addiction should not be ignored. Here’s an insightful, and trippy, report about one’s gambling addiction journey. While it’s not porn, the fact remains: addiction leads down a dark and sinister path not only to one’s own life, but their loved ones as well:

Agreed.

I’ve heard that they are pretty LGBT friendly over there. Is that true?

Two human beings, literally, connected as one:

Being biased for academics with a PhD is a mistake. Just because an academic has a PhD doesn’t mean that they are wiser. Consider that they can be stupider and more corrupt.

Yes, and that is no accident. You’d literally lose your mind if you understood way more than you can handle. Some states are simply far too radical for God as a human to comprehend. So trying to be the most awakened human being on the planet is a foolish goal.

Having a sexual encounter with an authority figure is ill-advised, as I aforementioned. But future trips have helped me discover that I can, in fact, build healthy relationships that are founded on truth and openness.

@Leo Gura After one of my therapy assisted ketamine trips, I was feeling so much love that at one point I locked eyes with my therapist. Our eyes locked so intimately for a few moments, as if it was leading to something beyond the appropriate boundaries. As soon as I had the idea to start making out with her, I snapped myself out of it and moved on as if nothing had happened.

Truth is so truthful that it encompasses all lies and all truths as Truth.

Also, watch your assumptions. I’ll be dating an extrovert in a couple days, and she told me that she’s actually attracted to introverts.

Talk to women that you wouldn’t expect to; who gently push you past your comfort zone. For example, if you’re an introvert, start dating some extroverts.

As a human, this is true. There are states well beyond human where all of this logic flies out the window.

It’s important to be able to detect differences and similarities in a flexible manner. That is how your mind can expand and contract, no matter what experience you find yourself in. A lot of the confusion stems from assuming that reality needs to be one particular way in order for it to be the ultimate, truest reality.

Not necessarily. Someone could own counterfeit luxury brand clothing and borrow an expensive car if they really wanted to.

People are allowed to do all of those things. It’s a matter of how you respond to that which makes all the difference. I honestly don’t read books, so I couldn’t tell you.

You’ve actually answered your own question, just in a different context, here:

You can study the behavior of specific people to have a more nuanced understanding of how systems work. Zoom in, but don’t forget to also zoom out.

Yes, my example ties in with that. The deceptive nature of discovering who we are is not to be taken for granted.

I am severely allergic to carrots, but depending on the context. It’s a condition called oral allergy syndrome. For example, I can eat boiled carrots from a soup, yet taking a bite from a raw carrot or drinking carrot juice can literally kill me. Same thing, different context.

I have a couple dates next week, simply by radically reframing how my mind works.

I accept every perspective as my own, while also allowing my own sovereignty to co-exist.
