@Schizophonia I honestly don’t know what you are talking about. What have I said here that is remotely aggressive?

Not sure what you mean

That’s human nature for you. Most people are survival zombies.

In practice, every man has to learn social skills and charisma now. Which is good in a way. It’s almost like society has to face its own brutal nature and come up with honest ways to deal with it, rather than depend on clutches. That being said, if it’s too much at once, then it can also collapse society.

Ironically, in my game development, I have come full circle. At this point I am mostly myself. I have my goofy side and I have my more serious side. I show both depending on the envinronment and the situation. I am mostly myself, with social calibration. The only thing I hold back is my philosophical side (which to be fair is a huge part of me, but I am talking about my personality here), that is something I will virtually never bring up. And I don’t care if it’s a hot girl or an ugly girl, if they don’t vibe with me, or don’t like me, then it’s see ya. I text mostly what I want, and don’t have any hard rules for texting. If she don’t vibe with me, then I will meet the next girl within 10 seconds. My results are better than ever, especially with the better looking ladies.

Well said.

You need to get them to invest in you as well for it to be a solid number.

Yes but the point of the thread was that Vikings were way more than just strenght and victorty, and not the good stuff.

Happens too often in a place like this.

Hey everyone, I haven’t been very active here lately because I’ve been quite busy with life. I have been doing much more socializing than I had planned for this summer. I did eventually reach a point now, where I am quite burned off from all the social games, superficiality, fakery and manipulations. And so, I was inspired to create this thread to open a space for you to reflect: ”Am I aligned with what I am doing in life right now?” ”Is this what I want?” ”Is this headed to where I want my life to go?” - - - - - How are you doing? Personally, as much as I want intimacy with another human being, the games that I have to play to get it.. the juice is not necessarily worth the squeeze at this point in my life anymore. And so, this saddens me quite deeply. Being alone is very hard as a natural extrovert. Any extroverts here that struggles with this? I wish I was able to be fully content being alone for the rest of my life. Damn, it’s hard.

Yes. Hard conversations are extremely important to have, but can we have them in a respectful, civil manner? This is really what it all comes down to. If there is no maturity and consciousness involved in the conversation, it will spiral downwards to hell.

Unfortunately or fortunately, you can’t put moderstors in there.

@oOo I am not sure what you try to say honestly. My issue remains very simple and clear: I can’t find someone with whom I have physical, emotional and intellectual intimacy.

You’ve gone mad bro. Also, what does this have to do with dating?

This is not good. We should clear this

Yes. That’s why most people don’t do the work we do here. Because it is lonely at the top.

Maturity is facing and healing your traumas.

Hmm. With maturity, comes higher level of values. An immature person might value money and sex, while a mature person will likely value empathy and integrity. A healthy stage green person is generally more psychologically mature than an orange.

You can approach from the side or the back, just run like 4-5 feet ahead of them, and excuse yourself.

@Valach Brother, I am done with this discussion. If we don’t agree after all this, then there is no point continuing. It’s ok. We are just going in circles.

It is just some harmless flirtin. It happens all the time. You are making too big of a deal out of it. Getting a girl’s number doesn’t mean anything, especially if the guy is new to game, he most likely won’t be getting any solid numbers anyway.

Correct. But again, for an extremely hard case, giving them a practice of asking someone for the time or direction, is crucial part of his journey. Did he really need help with time or direction? No.

Yes, integrity is mostly directly against human selfishess and ego that practicing integrity gets you into so much trouble, it’s hard. Despite that, that’s what’s aligned with the highest Truth, which is truly the highest value in existence.
