What is a trap?

(Speaking for men) I think Marriage is only viable under 2 circumstances: 

1. A system to intentionally start a family & raise children

2. (less common) A tool for business/economic purposes; I imagine Kim K & Kanye, Alex & Leila Hormozi, Beyonce & JAY-Z, etc. come to mind

 

Otherwise.....very likely (statistically-backed) to end up as a NET negative (at least for the guy). We could sit around and discuss hypotheticals all day but, this is the nutshell as I see it.

Life is not about taking but about giving. There's nothing to take anyways. Nor is there anything the world could give you. 


You cannot love what you need.

Don’t be so foolish. Your rights can be taken away at any moment.

Congrats on your expertise in spiritual gaslighting. Quite an impressive skill, I must say.

There's no such thing. You can't gaslight anyone with the truth. Truth doesn't gaslight. It's just light

Giving is receiving and receiving is giving. It's both. Not one or the other.


Know thyself....

Gaslighting exists because of truth. Gaslighting is the truth. That's why it's difficult to know whether someone is gaslighting you.

It’s a trap to fall for gaslighting and the truth you are in love with. 

That’s why you fall in LOVE!

La-Dove!

What's wrong with gaslighting if it's the truth?

Beware, the miscommunications can be endless ¬¬

I’m marrying a geek to fix the signal.
