What if you get a girlfriend in that time or will you want an open relationship? ? You think that’s not enough time?

What about a girl buying you something? My girlfriend would bring me random gifts when we started dating , I was surprised and appreciative. we get eachother spontaneous gifts if we see something that the other will like.

If you want to see how you really feel about the girl and if it’s what you want, then stop consuming pickup related material. Just quit it all for a month. This corrupts your mind and doesn’t allow you to think clearly. During that time be as present as possible within your relationship and feel into it. Focus on only that and see how you feel with no outside sources making you overthink everything. Then see how things are in a month or so.

@Thestarguitarist14 what? Lol

Go and read about ‘internalized misogyny’ https://vocal.media/viva/signs-you-re-dealing-with-internalized-misogyny

nobody knows for real how good or not good Leo’s game is, we only know what he tells us lol. Just all speculation depending on how you imagine him.

@wildflower I’m INFP, who would be my positive shadow match ?

whether you are pro vax or anti vax it doesn't matter.. let's put that aside for a second. tensions are rising and people are dividing. what are going to be the real consequences of unvaccinated members of society being isolated and cut off from socialisation because of having a different world view/opinion? People are becoming mentally unstable. Already in Germany there has been 2 murders related to covid rulings... and it's only gonna get worse when vaccines become a legal requirement. Clearly the more someone is forced into doing something, the more they will resist. life is counterintutive right? mental health issues are rising, people becoming severley depressed and also in a state of anxiety over all of the rules. Even people who are vaccinated are stressing over all the rules which get stricter every week. Nothing has changed since a year ago. UK companies making billions off mandatory PCR tests and people being tracked entereing the country to make sure they are self isolating (even when vaccinated). Whens it all gonna end? btw i am vaccinated before anyone attacks me. I just feel like things are going really far now, seems like it's getting worse not better. Not to mention vax corps refusing to remove patents in order to allow other countries to use the vaccinations. people on their 3rd and 4th shots whilst poorer countries can't even get 1 shot. really man wtf is going on...

I guess it would make sense as to why there are more male conspiracy theorists

Are there no Covid restrictions in Vegas or do you need to show a vaccine pass to get in the club ?

Bit aggressive, no?

When I hear the term ‘anti-vaxxer’ it’s like I get a feeling that this is someone bad and that I should feel disassociated from them. I also get the feeling I shouldn’t converse with them and should look down on them. I don’t want to feel like that but this is what I’ve been inundated with from the media, people in day to day life, at work etc. I think the term anti vax has been taken to an extreme and everyone has their own reasons for not taking it. I’m becoming increasingly more and more annoyed by pro-vaxxers because I have to listen to them all day at work and they are becoming more and more neurotic, which is making me go insane.

It’s a battle of the egos all up in here. This is exactly why guys feel they need to sleep with hot women to prove their worth to other men! Leo will have a very nice ego boost from sharing the photo, and some other guys will feel jealous and less superior and perceive themselves as low value. I’m cringing a bit at this thread.

Nice to see Leo posting about attachment styles. I’ve seen a lot posted here from the girls on the forum before regarding this topic. It’s an important part of shadow work that shouldn’t be ignored. Amazing if you can work on this area. best way to make yourself more secure is by being in a relationship with someone who has a secure attachment type. basically secure people don’t freak out or feel uncomfortable dealing with a partner/friend who is anxious. They are comfortable being a rock and grounded. They also have strong boundaries so can handle these situations well.

Secure.

This gal has some great workouts

Nobody else feel like this is a troll post?

If both parties don’t end up in a long term relationship with someone who is their ‘equal’ then it turns into a reacher/settler dynamic. The reacher-settler theory specifies that one person in a relationship is reacher, someone who reaches to get a partner outside his/her league; while another is settler, who settles for a partner below his/her league. I got this from how I met your mother lol but it’s generally true.

Because people usually pair up with people on their same level of attractiveness. people resonate with others who have similar features or are on par with them looks wise. That’s why most of the time you see couples dating who are their equal in terms of looks.

I have a question which maybe someone can help me understand. if there are so many cases and all of these people are getting Covid, then doesn’t that mean all of these people now have antibodies to the virus? I never see this mentioned, only emphasis on getting vaccinated but nothing ever talked about all the 100s of 1000s of people who have recovered… ? U.K. for example has many cases, so why aren’t we nearing herd immunity? Recovered people + vaccinated people should make up a bigger percentage that those who are unvaccinated. What am I missing ?

Can anyone reccomend me a good, thought provoking book for my 70 year old dad - who isnt into personal development at all, is a huge loner who isolates himself from everyone and can't express his feelings. it shouldn't be an obvious self help book, but perhaps a book with a thought provoking message whether it be fiction or non fiction, maybe something to wake him up a bit. He's always apathetic and has no interest in anything anymore and doesn't go out anywhere. so I want to try and rekindle some warmth in his life indirectly..

@Preety_India I just read this article and thought of what you said about women in India not being allowed to choose who they marry.. ‘Indian women make up 36% of all global suicides in the 18-39 age group’ https://bbc.in/3pZXCLH?fbclid=IwAR1inuDzBGEzuQ-hYPfwNNTYvCTuRieTb806p7kr6O5LO47OtQ7596DqGKg

Not true. This will leave your girl feeling insecure in the relationship. If a girl feels you are less invested in her she will wise up and leave (if she is a self loving, somewhat secure girl with self respect) if you use this tactic your basically just trauma bonding, so no doubt you will attract less secure girls. if what you mean is basically have a life outside of the relationship and have a purpose, then yes. But if you are deliberately keeping yourself ‘less invested’ that’s actually coming from insecurity and fear of intimacy. Learn how to love people fully and unapologetically whilst still having your own purpose. Divine Masculine is giving. Give love. Don’t withhold your love as a manipulation tactic.Being a whole and complete human is being able to love without fear, but also having enough self respect and self love to know if it’s not reciprocated.

I’m wondering if the body could end up building resistance in the way it does with antibiotics, so that eventually the vaccine has no effect. To be honest though I can’t see everyone, even people who are for vaccinations, wanting to take shots every 6 months. Here in the U.K. people are already complaining that the first 2 shots aren’t enough, people don’t want to take the booster because there will be another new shot to take by next month.. so people are waiting before they take anything else. it’s been hard enough to get so many people to get vaccinated in the first place, can’t make people keep taking it especially young and healthy ones…or people who really didn’t want to take it but they did anyway as a moral obligation. It will hopefully just become like a flu shot where those who want to have it can.

Sounds like you still have a lot of inner work to do because you’re attracting the wrong girls. What you call her ‘falling in love’ with you in the beginning is just infatuation. This is usually the most toxic time when games are played and people are acting based on traumas. It’s a tiring game to play. Eventually one person wises up and exits the relationship. Or they work through any differences and move to the next level. Genuine Love is rare these days and it’s something that doesn’t happen instantly. It’s true that you develop and grow love so long as you are both growing together. The beginning stages of love are very shallow, but both people can work past that if they commit to eachother and isn’t one sided. It’s something you build with someone over time, the beginning 3-6 months of a relationship is usually the hardest time to work past.People give up so easily and don’t make it past the initial hurdles to get into a deeper relationship. You know it’s genuine love when everything is calm, you don’t have anxiety or feel like you need to be a different person. you know eachother well enough to be comfortable in your own skin. Maybe it happens that you meet someone with whom you can be yourself with from the get go, those are the ones you should keep around if you find a good person like that. No facades. In fact you should make it your mission to become one of those people, then others will want to keep you around. OP what you want is basically 2 secure individuals who are both comfortable and trusting with eachother. It just won’t work that way if one person is avoidant and one person is anxious (attachment types) there will be a constant state of anxiety and discomfort or control.
