Spiral

I find it sad that lasting relationships is kinda rare and that so many kids have to grow up in single parents households. Like I was.

Only a poor product or service requires marketing.

So a regular relationship?

I’m awful at texting. Which is ironic because I write for a living and critic others writing as a hobby. I’m so bad at texting that people point it out, guys and girls. I’m typically described as boring or something similar. I also really dislike texting, I find it boring. One could argue with that people doing things they find boring are themselves boring. Something that really bugs me about texting is that I often have to “carry the conversation”. It makes me preferably not want to have it at all. Are you good at texting? What makes a good texter? Do you enjoy texting?

@meta_male Yeah it worked out fine, I’ll probably hang out with her again. I’m great with conversation in person it’s really just the texting bit that I’m struggling with. We did make out and she wanted to hook up.

@meta_male I don’t really date at all. In this case it was setting up a meetup with strangers. While it isn’t people I look up to(nor down on) it’s so common I must be doing something wrong. Like for instance We ended up chatting on an anonymous forum. The reason was that both of us wanted to have a meetup and she asked me to tell her more about myself. I told her my age, gender and that I was new in town(it’s not clear in that forum). Minimalistic absolutely but we’ll get to talk more on the meetup. That was super boring apparently.

Don’t drop the soap!

I agree with Leo on this.

I also find friendship difficult. With men its useful to have an activity that you do together. Typically in my country it would be things like going out for a beer or two. Just causally being friends without a shared activity isn’t really a thing in my experience.

Splitting the bill is one thing not sharing chocolate is another. I don’t stay if a girl did that

The difference between being a millionaire and having a few hundred billions isn’t that meaningful. At least when it comes to quality of life. The difference with being good with women and great with women isn’t that impactful either. If you have a solid 40% success rate that’s absolutely fine.

Retirement home for rich guys.

It’s a pretty bad attempt in that case.

Do you want sex or a relationship? If you wanna get laid you shouldn’t be dating to begin with, that’s just being a fuckboy.

I like to go straight to the important part. So yeah do the Zumba text. Although you might want to suggest a place also.

Give them a fun engaging conversation. It doesn’t have to be educational or say much about you. Do some roleplay or something. Talking about the weather or what you do for a living isn’t that interesting.

@Chives99 I like muffins. I do not feel attraction towards them. Obviously an oversimplification and not the best example but I don’t have much time to write now. Might get back with a better response later.

Definitely overthinking. Touching is an effective method.

I wouldn’t put it as extreme as @StarStruck however yes don’t ask women how to get women. Or the other way around. Women will tell you what they like not what they are attractive to.

I’m not interested in woman sexually or romantically at this time. That’s said I’m opposed to approaching women.

Men who focus on women fail. It’s always been that way. It’s not the way.

One should be careful conflating romantic love and actual love. Very different things.

Hatred will ruin your relationships. If you treat them like they are going to treat you poorly, they will.

If abstaining from it causes you distress you have an addiction. Like if you stop consuming fluids you’ll feel terrible. With porn you won’t die but it’s quite common that it can be difficult to stop. With fapping? Idk don’t do unless you’re actually horny. If it’s a way to spend time, you are probably using it in an unhealthy way.

I was there in may. It was nice, I didn’t end up talking to any girl that time however.
