Thanks for elaborating, I still disagree with you but perhaps our disagreement is in terms of timeframes? Are you saying that if for a lifetime if someone ignores these drives you think it won't impact their mental health negatively or do you mean that a short break of a few months or few years can be healthy? If it's the latter I agree with you, if it's the former I think you're off the boat and lost at sea.

The conclusion is simple: ignoring fundamental psychological and biological drives while living in the real world will ruin your mental health and produce bitter coping mechanisms. If your entire contention was taking an analogy literally, you've spent a lot of energy arguing against a point no one was making.

Why do you think that this will result in price appreciation? It's performance has continuously been way worse than Bitcoin. Seems that the gap is only gonna get wider if anything due to institutional backing being disproportionately in favor of Bitcoin which will directly lead to appreciation. The only saving grace is in an altseason it might see a capital rotation that has gains that temporarily go higher than bitcoin's but selling at the top is so hard in that situation. If that's your strategy I would say some juicier alts such as Bittensor are a better strategy.

I'm confused as to what value you think your clarification is offering here, did you just want to argue about the semantic difference between levels of needs that humans have?

Have you heard of Maslow's hierarchy of needs? I think this model is quite helpful to visualize healthy human development. If you mean my personal dating strategy, it's only complicated for someone who doesn't get it. From my perspective I have fun pursuing different activities, posting myself engaging in them and continuously levelling up my attractiveness level. I read a lot of men on here and in society at large being fed up and overwhelmed with dating and that's a shame. If done right it should be like a video games where as you conquer different hurdles, you get better and better at getting your wants and needs met through attracting high quality people into your life.

You started this fight, ran out of arguments, and now you couldn't resist coming back for one last tantrum. Learn some grace and take your own advice.

Intimacy and sex ARE fundamental human drives and also needs. It's why MGTOW as an ideology doesn't work and tends to produce frustrated and bitter individuals. @Majed seems like he's encountering some hard walls in his dating journey but that is not a reason to abandon it altogether. One should temporarily take a break and rethink their strategy if it's not serving their goals though, nothing wrong with that.

Not at all, I would call that dogmatic religious asceticism, not true spirituality. Reality is non-dual; the material world IS God manifest. If your spirituality requires you to abandon physical reality because you can't handle the friction of human connection, you're not transcending life, you're running away from it. Try getting more spiritual and getting beyond eating food and drinking water or taking a dump and let me know how that worked out for you.

I would say I'm extremely spiritually developed. I meditate almost daily and each new day I find myself further falling in love with God, reality and my fellow humans. Be careful to not internalize your failures in dating and tell yourself a beautiful tale that you're beyond it now and are actually too developed to appreciate it when you can't even achieve it in the first place. A wise man adapts his strategy when the solution he's trying to solve a problem is not working. Have you tried online dating and hiring a photographer like I've suggested you do a few weeks ago? Read my thread on problem solving if you haven't already, it's way deeper than it seems at first glance. If you were competent at solving your problems you wouldn't have made this thread. No shame in this, just adopt a superior strategy and achieve all your wildest dreams brother! You got this.

Fuck yeah, thanks for sharing. That's so exciting. The next few years of entertainment are so mind blowing, I'm very glad I started my project when I did. Seems like it's just in time for generative AI to blow it up. I think the web 3 angle with the mixed reality is gonna be a game changer. 2 years from now people will be able to make good games quite easily but it'll just lead to an over supply of generic games. Having novel monetization mechanics and real life events is gonna be revolutionary.

You had two chances to name a single substantial point and failed both times. There was no "essence" to steelman, just an emotional rant and an embarrassing retreat. Go take a breather, you need it.

Bro that has to be one of the stupidest thing I've ever seen written lol. There's so many ways to address this but I'll leave you with this It's not because most people have shitty relationships that you can't build a phenomenal one. That's like saying because most people have a basic house, mansions and castles can't exist. I'll be in my castle with my many wives, feel free to be a virgin for life if that's what you want. I suggest you try sleeping with a few baddies and dating the coolest one you find before you give up on dating though.

I'm an INTP. Bro the victim mindset with you is strong, we need to break you out of that. You know you're an extremely powerful man capable of almost anything right? Can you repeat that back out loud and ideally in a comment. Never put random limitations on yourself that you don't really believe in, that's the suicide of your potential my friend. Other humans project their own limitations onto us and we internalize that. It's basically generational trauma. Break the cycle, believe in yourself and achieve your wildest goals.

Extraverted Sensing is great to curate a pleasant and perhaps even sensual environments. Dudes high in Fe are great at being the life of the party but sometimes can bore women over a long period of time because their value is upfront and tends to slack. If you intuit deeply how women feel then you can play a game like I do where you host a monthly event and invite all the new women you meet to it. At your own events you can be grounded and low key and you are the structure of the party without being the life of the party and women usually are great at understanding the subtle context behind the environment and thus who runs it. I've been told many times by women I met only for a few hours prior that they felt really comfortable around me which goes just as far if not further than being the fun guy that's super exciting in the moment but usually ends up turning off 50% of women due to being too much.

Blaming cognitive functions is just an excuse to avoid taking action. Your problem isn't low Se, it's that you're putting yourself in a victim mindset before you even try. Drop the MBTI cope and go get some real-world experience, you'll be fine. How many women that you were attracted to have you talked to in the past 3 months?
