    The women are the way they are, I can't change them. Like I can't change earth to become flat.

    What I'm saying is, what you say about women is mostly false and its sexism. The way you think women are is a stereotyping of women. "Most" women are not what you say they are in your posts.

    So, then you spew a bunch of false opinions, thread after thread and the women of this forum are getting sick and tired of it.

    The problem is not with the women....

    You got that wrong, I'm not blaming others, I'm only blaming myself.

    I don't have it wrong. You just do it in a back-handed way. You'll post that women want a alpha man, a real dick (you said in another thread), that's an asshole and that treats them like shit and since you're beta and not that, your screwed.

    Therefore, blaming women, like I said.

    Good for you, really, so many guys (this forum is proof) are clueless. That exercise may be eye opening for ones that are open to a new perspective.

    The problem stems from the pick up community.

    Exactly! ...and those are the ones my comment was aimed towards.

    Her real motives are to have push pull dynamics with a "bad boy" who she tries to tame and then leaves when she has turned him into her lapdog

    LMAO!

    *sighs* This is one of the issues I have with it. My issue isn't the approaching itself, it's the mentality, and how it seems it's mainly to put a notch in the bed post of how many hot chicks they can pick up and sleep with. For the ones really looking for a relationship,  well great!

    The internet is a wonderful thing, but boy is it responsible for some nonsense or what?? 

    Ain't that the truth!

     

    Also, for the guys on here saying women in general only want asshole, bad boys that treat them like shit, thats just not true. Its not true for me and I've known a lot of women and a lot of couples and like I said, its not true. I'd say it's a small percentage of emotionally damaged women that want that.

    Form IS Emptiness AND Emptiness IS Form.   I’m certainly not the first to point to this.   

    Yes, this is how I see it also.

    First there were mountains, then no mountains, then mountains again.

    .........

    From the ox herding stages-

    "The practice does not stop at emptiness. If we attach ourselves to emptiness, it could lead to separation and isolation. So we have to go one stage further, reentering the world where “having forgotten ourselves, we are enlightened by all things.”

    Love is knowing I am every-thing,

    I'm a mental health nurse

    Sweet! I did this too, just for a short time. I would've stayed, I worked in-patient and loved it, but went on night shift and my body couldn't deal with nights.

    t currently working in a non-clinical role. More of an employment coach

    I would like this I think, sounds cool.

    Thinking back over the past 10-15 years, every job I've left, I've quit before lining up a new job.

    Ah, you like living on the edge, lol. I quit my first 2 nursing jobs without another job lined up, but quickly had another job, because I wasn't picky and i was a new grad so they didn't have to pay me top wages back then.

    How you managed not being out of work for 1 day though is very impressive. Human resource alone with all the red tape, usually messes that up, for me at least.

    Thanks for your reply?

    I’m also male, and they are taken off-guard that a male is doing this. If it was a female professor, I think most of the males would dismiss her as “yea, yea. . . another woman trying to tell us about sexual harassment and how hard they have it.”

    @Shiva Thanks!

    Here is the thing, this is new to me. The leadership stuff, because as home care coordinator, that I use to be, it wasn't really a leadership/manager job, just administrative.

    The administrator (top dog) of this company just came to me and offered me the job. I didn't have to build any skills, lol. I was actually a bit surprised.

    I have an extrovert, a bit perfectionist type personality,  but like my alone time and can also go with the flow too. I don't know how this will turn out. I'm hoping good and that I'll like it, but that's yet to be seen.

    Good luck to you also!!!

    I would compliment her too much, text too much, and just generally try to inject myself into her life as much as possible. 

    Yeah, there's a balance you need to find with the compliments, texting, etc.

    You don't want too much or too little, ...more like a happy medium. 

    Pretty much all things that can be desired are like this... (ie, eat too much good food and get fat, smother your GF and she runs). Too much of a good thing, is a bad thing, eventually.

    @Preety_India Looks will help you get your foot in the door, but if you start displaying neediness or any other unattractive behavior, your good looks won't mean shit.  She may sleep with the guy a few times, but she will never consider him as a serious long-term partner.

    Yup! She might find it cute for, um, a whole 2 weeks, then she would get sick of it quickly. 

    Women don't even like their own children hanging all over them constantly, let alone a grown man.

    I've become conscious of the fact that free will is spontaneously generated... As strange as this may seem, this is what is occurring. I am spontaneously generating will in the moment, but the even weirder part is that this is precisely the same thing as no will at all. And in effect, I can observe both this odd manifestation of will as well as literally phase shifting my perspective into a position of no will and watch as reality seamlessly flows on without any doer-ship. 

    Yup, as a matter of fact, "everything" is spontaneously generated, even thinking one "does or doesn't" have free-will.

    Whatever spontaneously arises is equal to determinism, because as you rightly said, there is no-doer, but "maybe" one doesn't have to act on every thought that arises. Perhaps, that's where freedom may come in, if there is such a thing at all.

    The reason I say it like that is because, say I think, "I want ice cream", then I think, "no no, I will exert my free-will and not have the ice cream". Who's to say free-will actually happened? vs. Just a spontaneously arising decision which equals determinism, see?

    This knowledge doesn't get one off the hook for personal responsibility though. We still must always try to do the most appropriate action, speech, etc in the moment or suffer the consequences, why?? Because that's the way this universal manifestation with its physical/psychological laws and rules has been set up.

    Fake it 'til you make it.

    Damn, I was going to post this! 

    But, seriously, OP stop giving in to your every wim or you won't get far. Fake it until you make it! This means act "as if" you aren't needy and clinging. Don't give in to these insecurities and get a hobby to occupy your time, so a GF isn't your "everything" or she will run away from you.
