AION

She goes head over heels to pretend to be a guy and you are in disbelief about that?

She be like:

I made couple of jokes like that and she wasn't fond of it. So I respected her religion as much as possible. Meditation is not death, but life. It is awakening instead of being a zombie. Those people just haven't suffered enough. I respect everybody's process but they don't respect mine which is fine.

I want your trust in humanity and trust in anonymous suppliers

Yea, it is also about the gesture. Like does she offer to pay? Or show appreciation? Or make your worth your while in another way like offering a ride? She didn't do any of these which is a show of character. And I don't agree that men should stay gentlemen unconditionally when they get trampled over. Those times of unconditional chivalry should be over.

I made her pay half and she got so mad 😂 It was the second date by the way. Our first date was ok and the vibe was on. On the second date I didn’t feel the vibe and it was like she wasn’t appreciating me. My car broke down and I had to come with public transportation. She could have brought me home with her car. It was like 15 minute detour for her. So afterwards I just send her a payment request and she got mad and called me that I’m no gentleman. And I took it as a compliment as a former nice guy. Respecting yourself is so important as a guy because if you don’t respect yourself women will walk all over you. I traveled 2 hours in total to see her. I went with my heart in my sleeve. And I paid everything. Her showing more appreciation during our interactions and/or bringing me home would have made worth my while. Especially since with the public transportation it is 1 hour and with her car it is only 20 minute drive to my place.

I had a christian gf accuse me of black magic because of meditation.. how far off she was

At the end you have to meet them at their level which is the mud

After a certain point of psychological development one become a hermit. It is very rare to find developed companionship. And the thing is it is not even my choice. This life chose me. I can't feed my pearls to pigs.

🤹‍♀️

Hmm.. I'm just leaning towards not telling anybody about it. Even on this forum I'm getting weird responses.

There is meditation in Christianity

Words are powerful. Never underestimate the power of your words.

@something_else They are not smoking weed man. I have seen your pictures and I guess you belong to certain groups and it is easy for you to meet new people but not everybody has access to these hippy groups. They just have their friends and acquaintances and do some sports. It has hard to find belonging for them especially for guys who grew up behind an ipad. If you weren't socialized at the right age it becomes harder later in life. Not everybody has the auto-didactic skills to do it. How would you turn out if your parents didn't socialize you in your teens and you had to learn these skills in your late 20'ies? Have you ever thought about that before judging them?

I never thought of a need as a hole. 🕳️ But it kind of makes sense and now I’m disturbed for having needs. 😭

There are more sexless and single men than ever according to statistics. Just throwing everything on the fault of men is kind of sad and demeaning. I know a lot of good guys with friends and shit and can’t get a gf to save their life. They do have good communication skills and they would good fathers too. They are just a little insecure and don’t know what they are doing. There are a lot of complex explanations for the current phenomenon of modern day dating problems but it is not that easy as you make it out to be.

That is true but at least they are getting something. The regular nice guy is not getting any. Most guys would have something than nothing.

In the game of survival, moral/immoral is not a thing at play. In love and war there are no rules. That is a very painful lesson that I learned. I wish I believed it the first moment I heard it but sometimes you need to suffer. 😅

Agreed but I don't think being a moral man is the gold standard for women. Look around how many women are swirling around immoral powerful men.

The whole point of life is not to under or overcompensate but to find the middle way which is wisdom. Most people overcompensate because they were under compensated in their youth. This is the story of most wealthy people but also spiritual people. I mean Elon Musk wouldn't be Elon Musk if he didn't have a terrible childhood.

Most important is not if you pay or not if you are dating in a western culture. Or if you are good looking or not. Or how much money you have. Although all of these are variables at play and they do have an influence, most important is if you can make a connection with her and provide her fun/emotional intimacy/connection/etc. But the thing is that not all women have this western mindset. What you don't have in emotional and social intelligence you have to make up for in other ways like with your wallet, looks, status, and so on. Most guys don't know how to develop emotional and social intelligence (granted it is very difficult to develop if you haven't developed in your teenage years) so they overcompensate with wealth, physique, status and so on. It does work. Imagine Elon Musk not having his wealth, status and money, it would be very hard for him to get a wife but if you have power women will give you a lot of leeway. The thing is that women don't know how much power you have the first moment you meet them so they go off pinging your emotional intelligence and social status because that is a good indicator how successful you are. This happens mostly subconscious. And if you fumble with who is going to pay, it shows that you don't have emotional and social intelligence but the thing is if a girl is a pain in the ass, you shouldn't care about what she feels about you. At the end you should do you and listen to your intuition which is of paramount worth, much more worth than some strange.

So how are you going to get your stuff after your stash is out?

Mean? I didn’t meant it mean.

@Princess Arabia is the type of woman that you should go 50/50 on. Especially on the first date after you know you are not going to see her again. One shouldn’t encourage this kind of behavior.
