Because of capitalism and mass monotheism.

It is tricky. I think just saying less is a good option in general. Sometimes you do need to interfere and without asking, defend your values and so on. But this is not a lot of times, at least in my experience. In job, it's better to be more honest, authentic and vulnerable, I have jad great success in this field, but you cannot be totally honest. Remember that you are going to take risks and blind decisions, make mistakes and hope they will not influence what you are doing. So no need to throw yourself under the bus also, but then you also have to evaluate what is important to tell, and you don't really know at times at what point what is important to warn about. But in long term, honesty is better overall, even though it will hurt more. In personal life, well difficult. You can always not tell everything, switch the topic, gaslight people and so on which I don't encourage. But you can't really tell them what you really think about their behavior and their problems, MOST of the time they are not even listening to you, not even interested or open to other people's opinions, not even looking for help, did not even ask you for advice or help even though it is visible they have some kind of a problem. Or they will overreact, will take revenge on you and so on, so you kinda have to estimate if they are ready to be told something or even ask them, if they want to even know your opinion. My solution was to spend a lot of time by myself. I will be lying if I said that I am honest, but I kinda am, though I am very selective when I open my mouth. Be careful and stay strong.

Yes, I agree with this. Even if the woman you meet (in group or alone) is taken or is just stringing you along, you can still either platonically interact because there is value to what they can say or you can just spit some game and tips and spice up your emotional communication to see how she responds and to confirm some trends of behavior and see what resonates for you. Nothing sexual even needs to be said.

I agree with this one

I would focus on making them trigger you impossible. But it's almost impossible, I know.

yes i would, 10000x more, until i burn out and I have nothing left.

I could write books about the passive aggressive treatment i have had over the years, it's not even funny.

@Girzo so you were talking about my thesis and adapting my arguments to that, so what about this one?

Stop watching fresh and shit and whatever and it will go up by 50

@Girzo In a common sense way I agree with you, but we are in a self-development forum, where people constantly question their values and outcomes. Therefore I prefer to look at it in a yes/no manner. For the OP it maybe useful to look at my example, because Leo actually uses this as approach to be successfull in multiple areas in his life.

Because that is still a unsustainable or exploitative environment. Lavish = not good. There is still a lack of inspiration or values that inspire action and human genius. It needs certain resources, I am not only talking about financial, and I am talking about holistic, long term success. Our values and education sucks major ass, therefore you see failures everywhere, even if they are rich. For example, I do not see Dan Bilzerian as a successful human being, and I don't even see Allan Holdsworth or Elvis Presly as a successfully human beings, because their pleasures killed them, but their environment was good enough to give a little bit of everything for their muse. Most people don't get those.

Unsustainable, exploitative environment is really the only objective reason

Yeah man, it's hard. Especially when you have no experience with women, like me. I once met a girl who was a jazz singer. I really wanted to help with her musicianship, because I thought she would kill it if she found a way to record music and release it over the internet, and she would have a reliable medium to be engaged in practicing/recording, probably, for the rest of her life, not even talking about the things she can already do and organize regarding music. I noticed that we clicked, but basically I was too slow and at the same time too clingy for her. She was very attractive and I just really enjoyed her company, but i primarily wanted to help her in her music. I wish that she is doing well though. Let me say this. As much as I do not want a relationship, she really made me primarily want her. She made me feel like I have to lead her. I do not remember that any other woman has made me feel like that. It was interesting, and I still think about her from time to time. But I know that I will never meet her and it's fine I guess, even if she wanted to. I do not think that it's hard for her to find a mate. But here I am, desireful for somebody that does not care about me whatsoever. And this is most of our case (i am talking about single men who *can't get it* and have to put in a lot of work to get the kind of quality women you desire). Well the desire for companionship and sex. Ahh, the very root of most of the problem that a man will deal with. And society supports this delusion that you are not a complete being by yourself somehow. That is why it's so hard.

yes

Remember that eternity awaits you.

SAMPLE CONTAMINATION DUDE, I work in a lab, definitely could happen.

Not really much I think, in case you eat a variety of fruits and legumes. In case you really would like to, you can get yourself tested for B12, macro/micronutrients, blood sugar, anemia test etc., and if you find something is still under or over, maybe then you might need a supplement or green veggie, or something else even. At the end of the day, do you feel good? Do you want to feel better? Maybe then you should start doing some form of Yoga or something.

Same

What a Neo advita thing to say!

@Myioko;)

Essentially you will have nothing but desperation in your desire to want more and to desire for things you actually want. Then your success will not mean anything but comfort, which you also will not want to lose and it will be uncomfortable all the time. Something will ick you all the time. You will be insecure, and you cannot logically argue aginst it. The desire to do something different is always there. Justify how you want, good luck with that. If you have a system which is higher on the spiral, I strongly suggest going for it. Worked really well for me.

I agree, it can really help.

You know, I met this girl who plays classical guitar. I think she was the only person who I would wife up. I noticed that she can be pretty honest and she was very sweet, caring and seemed that she has what to offer. But, me being me, I did not have the desire to commit to her, not even to sleep with her. Definitely you would look for a woman who can tell you that you are full of shit sometimes and who also could take criticism, and somebody who is willing to commit to you in actions. That is mature and hot as fuck actually for her age and but in women in general. Then I had a meeting with another woman who was not like that. Maybe she could be but she was not the kind who would settle down and commit and maybe even damage my life, so it's actually good that I avoided her since I had a little bit more sexual attraction to her.

I feel like a complete idiot and genious at the same time on this path.

i would advise to learn how to learn and try to learn how to work efficiently, that is how you will become clever enough to pursue your LP later, because you will also do many things you hate in your area of LP. But of you truly can be at least neutral doing it and be somewhat efficient, the things after that are better and you will save your ass from disasters from your errors at work, and get a promotion and do something more responsible.
