Why do you think people want to experience fear? For example in cinema. Horror & thriller movies are very popular. Take "It" for example, I havent seen it but I think it falls into this catergory. Feeling fear is just not something I like in general and I dont go to the movies just to feel it. Now Im not talking about when the movie is very good, like the story or cinematography is innovative or outstanding, then I would also go and watch it maybe. Is it just the adrenaline rush? Like a roller coaster or like a haunted house in an amusement park. Gaining new perspectives. The feeling of watching something fearful from a distance. I think when you watch a lot of these movies you can build kind of a resistance or some people just have thicker skin and dont experience a high degree of fear from movies in general. But even then they could just watch something else. So there must be something very appealing to them.

Why do you want to go to the gym and learn mma? You need to find things that resonate with you. Try out different things and observe how you feel. Talk to some different people and observe how that interaction makes you feel. You dont have to like everything and everyone. At the same time not every has to like you. That is the trap. If you try too hard to have everyone like you, you wont find the people you resonate with. Set strong boundaries. You have to set those yourself but I can give you an example. Dont waste your time with people who dont accept you the way you are. Meet new friends who do and enjoy your time together. Maybe these videos will help you

Wow, interesting question. First, you already went most of the way. To understand that the way you where raised isnt the only way and that there are better alternatives is the key to transformation. Now you need to stay conscious. You will fall back to old behaviours and ways of thinking. That is totally normal and to be expected. Just try to be conscious of that and instead switch to the new wanted behaviour and way of thinking. You can write in a diary of some sort your progress. Maybe choose one of the items on your list and make it a priority for a week or for one month to try and change this behaviour. Do one at a time to make it easier and more focused. See it as an exercise. Also talk to people or read stories of how other people dealt with those things.

You accept it. To not accept reality as it is, is insanity. Or devilry. For fear: See Leos last video. You accept that part of yourself (reality). If you have to live the rest of your life in a prison in NK, you accept this aspect of reality. If your mother gets shot, you accept this part of reality. If you suffer because of these events, you accept this part of reality.
-
Yes thats true as well. Like a dare. There is definitely an appeal to movies which deal with a specific kind of fear. And I guess it makes for an interesting story line as well.
-
Yes you are overthinking this. You havent even met. Are you usually fearful of people becoming angry with you?

Ask yourself this; are your texts designed to manipulate her into answering, are you trying to impress her or do you come across as needy? If yes that could be your problem and you should fix that. What Ive found with women is, many of them are most of the time very reactive. So you will in 99% of the times be the one who makes first contact. And you initiate conversation later on. You have to understand that a beautiful woman will get tons of text on her phone. So when you are texting her, you will be one of many and its easy for her to forget to answer you because of all the other distraction on her little shiny glass companion (phone). Here are 2 ways to handle that situation. 1. Be persistent. No answer? Ok you text again. She doesnt answer? Ok you text again. Spread your texts over several days. 2. You dont ask for her number - instead you go on a date right then and there! I highly recommend doing the second one as the first one can be tedious.

@Rebec Yep this is legit @pluto Also would suggest sense8, still have to finish it though. I think its ahead of its time (sadly). -
Thinking your are a woman is the same kind of identity as thinking you are a man. Or what was your question?
-
If you want to help her a good way would be to live an inspired and passionate life yourself. That way she can see how it is to have a different lifestyle. Talk to her about your struggles and vision. Maybe with time and when she sees how much you like it, she becomes inspired herself.
-
I also like the title, made we want to click immediately. @CreamCat You seem very concerned. How long is this been going? Did you talk to her if she has any ambitions or goals in life?
-
Or you can just stop feeling that you dont deserve her, like all the other equal human beings that have dated her before you.

Dont overthing the tinder thing, let them talk about you. There should be enough influx of new people. What I found works really good is being friendly and nice and then at the right time, you start touching her and then kiss her. Usually the faster the better. Be nice but dont bend yourself. So yes you stay friendly and dont say mean things BUT you also dont just say things to agree with her. And you do playfull teasing of course. Basically you dont look for any validation from her. You cant generalize it because every girl will be different. And it depends on the situation. But it sounds to me like you biggest problem is needyness. That comes from overanalyzing. By constatnly thinking and analyzing everything she does you put yourself in a needy mindset. Everything you do is ultimately for her to like you. Woman have a good sense for that. Instead of focusing on if she likes you try to focus on yourself and if you like her.
-
Thats not possible. There is no hidden network were girls from tinder talk about there matches with each other. In big cities there should be enough new ones coming in every day. How do you usually talk to girls and what do you think makes them reject you? Unless you tell us the details we cant help you.
-
Is that really true? I mean it depends on your situation and where you live but would it not be possible to move in with family/friends. Or are there no programs for homeless people to give them homes and so on? Maybe try the live purpose course to find a better fitting purpose for you. It seems like on one hand you dont like to work and on the other hand you identity is very much tied to having a job, otherwise you become depressed and defeated. Is a job really defining you as a person that much? See if that is true for yourself. Also it seems like you have a lot of resistance in you. Resistance to working and resistance to not working. Resistance makes your life really hard. Let go of that resistance, be present, you can always welcome the present moment. Maybe do some meditation. Your life will be easy then. Living a hard life or living an easy life is merely a choice.

Watch the exercise in the end of the video. Are these people doing inner work or outer work? You are free to do it yourself and see.
-
No the video teaches you the importance of going inwards instead of rearranging outside settings. There is more to it. As you do the practice you will find that you wont be able to let go any time and any thing. And even if you can, you are right, there are still things to learn. For example if you want to become a rocket scientist. Simply letting go wont do that. The thing is tho, most people dont become a rocket scientist because they cant let go.
-
Thats where these apps shine. You will talk to plenty of women. Without having to face the fear of rejection in the "real world". So its easy peasy. You will get the occasional strange date and women who are only looking for sex.

What most people do (especially your age, at least I did): They cockblock themselves. Like "She doesnt send me choosing signals so I dont go talk to her", "She doesnt smile when she sees me, that means she is not interested", "She blocked my kiss that means its over now", "She is with x,y,z, they are way cooler than me, she wont be interested" "Im not wearing my cool shirt today, I shouldnt ask her out today" or even "She is out of my league". When you could just stop with that you will get much better results. See the opportunity for flirting everywhere, smile and be self-amused. And now the most important tip I can give you. Be fine however the outcome is. Dont loose your cool because you didnt get what you want. That is such a turn off. Its the opposite of self-amused. It implies you NEEDED the other person to be fullfilled, to be happy. When she says "Alphaabundance I only see each other as friends Im sorry" you need to be prepared. Dont let your ego get a hand of you. Just smile and say "Thats cool". I mean dont get me wrong, if its your most inner desire to share your feelings with her about how deep she hurt you by not fucking you, well go ahead. Authenticity is important as well as being vulnerable. But I would refrain from sharing too much at the beginning of a relationship. See most man cockblock themselves because they feel like they have to do something in order for her to like her. They start to stutter, excuse themselves, they get nervous. If you just stay cool and have fun you are already in the top 5%.

The more people you want to reach with your music the more it will have to follow a certain style. Its not by accident that there is a genre called "pop". Imagine someone who wants to write a book. If you write a vampire drama with a lovestory there will be thousands of people all over it. Because the genre is already defined and there is a big pool of people who are interested in that. If you write instead a cashier memoir its not really what most people are used to read. If I was you I would just do more and more music and become better at it. Pick a style that is compatible with a lot of people that I enjoy myself as well (ie. dont do something too out there). When people start liking your music they will show it to others and you wont have to do much marketing by yourself. Just put it out there. Make sure that people can hear it, maybe play it live in your local area (idk how hardstyle music works in this way). I think the time of making money from album sales is over. If you want / need money I would rather focus on growing a fanbase and having merch and goodies for them in store, have a patreon or some other form of donation.
-
No, to make money means to manipulate reality. To envision yourself in a position that gives you a lot of money and status. And then working and planing to get there. Spiritual growth is all about accepting reality the way it is. With spiritual growth you may find it easier to make money but you wont be interested in bettering your position in life because you see that its already perfect the way it is. This not black and white tho. Even after doing lots of spiritual work you will still feel a need for luxury and money because it is so ingrained in our society. So in some cases spiritual growth may lead to making more money (see osho for example). Just if making money is your only goal I feel like there are better ways to achieve that than with spiritual growth.

Can you explain what differences surprised you? -
In one semester you would only learn the very basics. After you get a masters degree in statistics you will see how most statistics should never be used to undermine a hypothesis because of how flawed they are. You will learn how to apply math to statistics and how to work with probabilities. In the end its just models tho. A lot of sophisticated models that try to make statistics less flawed. Like every subject in university its like masturbating. As for stage yellow, everything that broadens your perspective is good. But its not a guarantee. There are many people who have a master in statistics and are not yellow and vice versa.

1. For letting go, use the sedona method, look up "releasing emotions". You will find tons of techniques. Its true that you shouldnt become neurotic about doing these techniques (as leos says in the video) but come on man. How long have you been doing this? If its for 1 or 2 month, dont worry about it. 2. Its the opposite, getting stuck in your head, getting fixated about one thing is what creates the problem. What you are doing here with letting go IS the emotional work you need to do. The work you are trying to run away from. Leo goes deeper on that topic in this video To let something go oftentimes requires to feel it fully before. Watch Leos videos on emotional mastery for more information.
