I think the spiritual bypass thing isn't necessarily to escape life. No one on this forum is a monk on a hill, just neglecting their every day life to achieve enlightenment. It was most likely neglected anyways if that were the case. A lot of the problems people have (especially non-spiritual people for example) stems from believing their life story as concrete, real and what they are is the product of their own doing. Suffering. Wether that manifests into low self esteem/depression, or mania/grandiose and everything in between. Emotional control and having a more balanced baseline is priceless in this life. This can be achieved by meditation... it takes a while though. At the same time, you could also be elevating your own life while you're on your journey and not take things so personally. I think Leo's technique is attempting nipping it in the bud, which isn't a bad angle to go with. It's akin to getting rid of a polyp. Sure, it wasn't necessary since it's benign but what happens later down the road when shit hits the fan?

"Cheapness" is too much of a blanket term. There are things that you can cheap out on that's okay and then there are things that you shouldn't cheap out on that is not ideal (car tires, car parts, insurance, the roof of your house, food etc) vs things that you can cheap out on (AAA batteries, a tent you won't use much, a tool that you needed only once, paper clips, etc) If you buy something that you will use sparingly or don't care about - cheap is king. Also for actually cheaper items, cheap is great because the competition is so close to each other. These phrases are usually true: You get what you pay for. Buy once, cry once.

Put your arm around her.

If you cannot surrender to the rat race, you will forever be a hamster on the wheel. And there's nothing really wrong with that. However, the things you currently worry about right now in your life, will not be the same things you will worry about if you end up "on top of the social hierarchy". In fact, those very same things you're worried about might get piled on by everything else by being at the top. Hell, most of those new problems might be extremely stressful. Exploring life? You mean traveling and trying new food, buying expensive things and trying out new hobbies? The typical normie shit? Sure, it's fun but eventually you have to lie down on your bed with your own thoughts before going to sleep. What then? Let's say you get to the top of the social hierarchy in whatever manner you believe would be the case. Then what? Another airport, another country to travel in. Then you're back home with your mind. Then, you have to manage all that money and success to keep it and to keep your image looking good for everyone to see. Then you're back home with your own mind. New hobby! Wow this is fun and interesting. Then you're back home with your own mind. So back to this question: If you transcend your "ego" (the little "i"), there's a possibility that you will see that the you in your life was never truly there. Therefore, you can attain success in the social hierarchy in a manner that is playful to you, genuine and you don't take it so personal (because YOU are a fiction) It's essentially a game and you know you will be "alright", no mental anxiety. However, there is also a possibility if you "wake up" that you could do away with the whole success thing and become like a farmer or a surfer or a monk or something. Something simple. Can you live with that possibility? Would being a 'nobody' to your friends and family and society as a whole, scare you?

Coronavirus pandemic.

No. I am fully aware that our dicks only have a finite life of working optimally without help (like viagra) and being able to cum. The day that stops working, I'll at least be happy knowing I took full advantage of being a sexual being. The last thing I'd want, is to regret the times I didn't experience orgasm when I'm too old to be able to and can't go back.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I nutted the morning of November 1st to show I'm not an NPC and I can choose what I want to do.

Lol what a dork.

I feel bad for all the people that abruptly lost their jobs. If Twitter fails, I bet you Musk will say he did it on purpose to save face. 100% guaranteed.

So “wokeism” means basic human decency? Gotcha. Lol.

The replies in this thread sure are…. something. Anyways, it was a terrible ass purchase and it is interesting if it all collapses soon. I don’t think Elon realizes a lot of people don’t fall for his schtick.

What the fuck is "wokeism"?

Maybe you’re straight but just like to tag team women with another bro. Maybe it’s the dominating a slut part of the threesome with another guy that you like. Two girls and one guy is obviously awesome since it’s two women (two is even better than one!) I think you’re straight, you just might want to run a train on a hoe, lol.

MySpace Tom.

Lmao but unironically, this.

Too much internet, not enough pussy in that attacker's life.

I'm really enjoying him becoming irrelevant. Even if this forum keeps trying to keep him propped up lmao.

How much do you drink OP? Let's say in 1 week.

Same. It’s almost like it’s highlighting America’s social fabric deteriorating rapidly. It’s like a litmus test. And the test is saying something very bad.

If the right wingers get this election it is GG for modern America. although to be fair, A LOT can happen in 2 years towards 2024. 2019-2021 for example is like a different dimension.

He sounds like someone that has been terminally online and has been fed by the algorithm.

How old are you? That goes away with age.

It's wild to me, how the internet has made people go into 'comparison mode' with other people--at a crazy rate. Comparing yourself to others by watching youtube videos (designed for clicks, views and $$$), social media like Instagram, Twitter, etc and one of the worst offenders, Facebook... is designed to make you jump even deeper with the thought 'what's wrong with me.. i need to fix this and blah blah blah'. Perfect, hook line and sinker. Older generations had something similar like TV, movies, magazines, etc - but nothing at this level. The comparisons are on a surface level too. What "red flags" do those girls have themselves, who put up these personal 'red flags' that they're looking for? This is all designed to make you dive into that channel, watch more videos, buy more products, get you self conscious, buy services, look at more ads, etc. Just be yourself. As in unapologetically yourself, "flaws" and all. If you think you deserve a best friend then go look for one. Looking for a best friend, because you think this is a necessary step to find a woman to avoid their 'red flags' that you saw in a youtube video is absolute insanity. You'd be living your life by the content you take in. You can find a woman who's into nerdy IT guitar playing guys like you. Some may be hot and some not so much but everyone's preferences are so different and weird that is it foolish to say 'this is what works, this is what doesn't'. Those guys who are on PUA forums and shit actually don't get pussy like you think they do. Nor do they find a good ride or die woman. They're all shells of who they used to be, thinking they're happy but in reality they're not the genuine self. What you must do though, is PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE. INCREASE YOUR ODDS BY TALKING TO A LOT OF WOMEN. Don't do it to get pussy because then you'll be fixated on outcome. Get rejected, become successful. Props on you for drawing a line in the sand and standing for what your preferences are and that you don't want to be a 50 year old guy slaying 20 year olds. Don't be judgmental of them though, that's what floats their boat. If you're anxious about this at 27, I would hate to be you at 35. It is an extremely toxic thinking pattern to dive into and I highly suggest you nip it in the bud right now if you don't want to turn into some creepy crazy guy into his 30s always looking for a wife.

Cursing is like beer; very delicious and awesome but don't become an alcoholic!
