Why would anyone want or need multiple girlfriends? Not just friends, but sexual relationships?

Let's get real. In every real relationship there will be a degree of conflict and a wiser person will know how to deal with this Vs. a less wise person.

Stop seeing an argument as an end to a relationship. Relationships contain arguments.

I don't believe this haha.

Lol. You'd be surprised!

If you are so "high value" that you have multiple partners, I would love to pick your brain as to how you did this and why.

From a Feminine standpoint, I would say attraction is based on a practical demonstration of care primarily. That opens the door to a real relationship if you are mature.

I'm not sure about this. It is deeper than this IMO.

There is no separate self.

I see it as more of a "Zen correction" where you step away from the theory for awhile, but this does not mean you lose anything. You will gain from doing this.

This is really sad.

I get a lot of satisfaction interacting with people. I see it as a sharing not as a fulfillment of anyone's "need".

This is analogous to music where when you take a solo it is the first part of the solo that draws the listener in and is the most important. You can stretch out in the rest of the solo. It is the same principle in all artistry.

I hope not lol. Interesting.

I think you should enjoy your life. For me this is key.

It is obsession with the cannot that is the problem fundamentally. The I can is not appreciated. So these layers of theory soothe the former IMO.

This is the perfect neo-advaita summary.

Sounds like this is all theory to you.

Friendship is a tricky idea. Aristotle tried to define it. The duality between acquaintance vs. friend sometimes has a blur to it. The people who stick around in your life and honor that relation are more friendship material even if you clash sometimes.

What you are missing is this applies to you not me.

Ok. So there is no confusion then.

Who is doing the imagining?

Wouldn't the answer be if consistent that you are imagining me?

Here is a question I have with this. If I can imagine something, does that mean it exists? How does this process work?
