Opportunity for what? Building a life together? Having a good time for a while? Consider what your and her genuine expectations and feelings are, and communicate about it, so both of you are on the same page. Then make a decision on what you think and feel is in her and your best interest.

/thread Does porn have that effect on you personally, or is it more of a fear you have regarding how it might affect others? Watching a recording of good sex is like watching a recording of someone eating good food. Watching a recording of junk sex is like watching a recording of someone eating junk food. How someone reacts and interacts with such a recording can be different from person to person. And watching a recording is (obviously) fundamentally different from doing it yourself (regardless of whether you watch someone eat or have sex).

Sums it up succinctly. If that is so, imho it follows that the same applies to maledom/femsub in hetero relationships.

Haha, perhaps. Btw, he is funding some research at the moment though, to see if his TOE can be supported via experimentally testing some predictions he has made. See here: https://cusac.org/

He worked on a PhD but didn't finish it. The phrasing in the link is a bit misleading but if you read closely it doesn't say that he has a PhD, just the Masters.

Don't know about the others but Tom Campbell doesn't have a PhD and worked in applied physics (risk modeling etc.) after his time at Robert Monroe's institute. So he should be considered more of an engineer than an (academic) researcher. His consciousness research was also in the private sector or by himself, rather than academic.

This is true not just for women but for interactions with people in general. Genuinely and freely doing doing things for others because it brings you joy and without being attached to particular outcomes ironically often maximizes the probability of a positive outcome. (Just don't do it to get better outcomes, hahaha)

So instead of "I am all that exists" it is "This (appereance now) is all that exists." How do you answer to the objection that a large part what appears seems to point to being determined by the avatar? That the sense perceptions that appear seem to be relative to the physicality of that body. That the memories that appear seem to be relative to that person. That the patterns of thought that appear seem to be the patterns of thought of that person?
