I feel like I knew initially but after a few weeks of her not really responding to my texts it was evident

Hey all, It's been a while since I've posted here, but I have a genuine question about this girl I'm interested in. We have a psychology class together at the end of the day and we always have great conversations. It very well could be just the way she's talking, but the way she talks to me shows a bit of interest. Her facial features are just simply amazing (mostly Italian genetics). She's very intelligent, is musically / theatrically talented, and takes care of her healthy by swimming & running. Despite having her number, it usually takes her hours/days to respond. I would consider her someone who is attractive by societal standards and it makes sense really - she has options. It's that simple. I don't really think she feels the same way towards me honestly. I asked one of my other friends about it and she said she doesn't respond to her texts either because "she's a busy girl." I told her about the crush I had on her and she said it was painfully obvious. What would be the best course of action following here? Should I accept the fact that my love is unrequited? Should I go on further? Any advice would help.

I should let you know upfront that I've seen this fantasy happen firsthand for many people close to me. It has ruined their lives, halted their development, and turned their lives into perpetual nightmares. Their houses messy and cluttered. No motivation, major health problems, etc. Granted, I do think it's possible to attain this in a healthy way, but the specifics aren't known to me at the moment. Any relationship built around substances is a shaky one at best.

Really you have to discern the type and quality of the carbohydrates. Apples are made almost entirely of carbohydrates. So is apple candy. Carrots are made almost entirely of carbohydrates. So is carrot cake. Your diet should be centered around unrefined and complex carbohydrates with moderate amounts of protein and fat: - Whole grains. (gluten free) Oats, quinoa, buckwheat, corn, rice, Teff, amaranth ... avoid refined and processed white bread. If you have a bad reaction to gluten then cut it from your diet, you might be celiac or have non-celiac gluten sensitivity. The only grains that have gluten are wheat, barley, and rye. Whole grains are overwhelmingly healthy and, for starters, decrease our risk for all-cause morality by 20%. They're loaded with plant-based sources of many B-vitamins and are easily digestible. - Legumes - Fruits (human outcome data shows with consistency that fruit is overwhelmingly healthy for us and reduces risk for many chronically ailments, don't worry too much about glycemic load unless you're eating a surplus of dried fruits, like dates) - Leafy and non-leafy vegetables Try to minimize your intake of added sugars, too. If you need a sweetener, use date sugar or blackstrap molasses. @Someone here

This is one of those rare occurrences when I find myself siding with the individual who gets arrested.

He expresses nuance and acknowledges that this is the best model we have of at the current moment. The essay in question also touches on the origin of consciousness and suggests that consciousness is the make up of reality and exists prior to all phenomena. Absolute consciousness is God, and God is all there was before the matter coalesced. And yes - I have watched Leo's videos. And I don't subscribe to his "imaginary brain" ideas. Quite frankly, a lot of his content is very intellectually heavy but doesn't have much to say in embodying non-duality. Like, how is mentally-masturbating to solipsism going to do you any good in your day-to-day lives? Short answer - it doesn't. It's a waste of time and mental energy. It doesn't help you become a more authentically embodied being. -
Me too. The graphics were great but the story was terrible. Not to mention the map size was way too big. Everyone was arguing about whether there was an admin or not. The moderators often abuse their power to increase their in-game currency. The tutorial lasts 18 years, and even afterwards you aren't given any tasks / objectives. You only get one life, and once you die you're stuck at the game-over screen forever. The soundtrack was good until the 80s update.

Here's a quote from Martin W. Ball: "After immensely long periods of time, matter from the singularity expanded and created space and time. It cooled and formed stable structures, which coalesced into stars and gasses, which eventually formed planets and solar system. Then, on only one planet that we know of, the same basic ingredients that are found elsewhere in the universe spontaneously started to self organize into living systems and biological entities. We have no definitive idea on why this happened, the environmental conditions were just right. Over millions of years, we finally have self conscious and aware beings that are able to reflect on both themselves and the universe they find themselves." -
I agree with you 100%. The psychiatric system is fucking inhumane. Check out Daniel Mackler on YouTube. He's an ex-therapist who exposes the bullshit he encountered while working in the mental health industry.

Dude. Absolutely. I've not met many people who've shared the same experiences I've had with early childhood. But the best way I can articulate it is is almost as if my early childhood (age 0-5) was a psychedelic dream that you gradually forget as you get older. Funnily enough, it was through smoking DMT that my memories from this era of my life were reignited. Imagination was reality. If I imagined something, then it would materialize before me. I would go into my own mind and play these types of games ... it was almost as if I visited an "astral plain," or something like that. I saw reality as it was, but my imagination was so intense that the room around me was subject to influence from it. Another thing that brings back memories is the breath-hold portion of the WHM, which feels a bit like DMT. -

Martin W. Ball, PhD. He was an adjunct professor at the university of Ashland, Oregon teaching religious studies. His entheological paradigm framework is turquoise in it's values and interpretation of reality. Highly recommend checking him out. Note: the signature of my profile is an excerpt from one of his poems entitled "my love."
