yes of course 

[Enizeo]

Is everything you say a lie?

[Rilles]

Just remember the caveat at the end of the movie though...

[purerogue]

Will you answer to next question I will ask?

Will you reply to my first question again?

@theking00 You need limitations for what you are going to do. Some people will try to take advantage of you when they start to see the pattern. There are better principles to have then this one.

You cant just ignore you bounderies without psycological consequences. If that movie was real life more then half of those people would need therapy after a while.

I did an experiment similar to this a while back. I ended up in Hawaii with a couple of cute Swedish girls and then found myself on a 2-week road trip driving from Seattle to Alaska.

[theking00]

it will help me to improve my social anxiety.

@theking00 Do it but there got to be some boundaries, like: don't rob a bank, don't give away your money, don't allow yourself to get raped and don't do drugs. It could be enough to just say yes to events and don't skip out on an invitation to handout with anyone.

Facebook usually shows me like 3 nearby events a week that i don't go to. You could make the rule that you have to go to 2 or 3 of those a week. 

[theking00]

Yeah i know what you mean . I will only say yes If i want to.

I used to mediate. I did the do nothing meditation. 

 

[martins name]

why no more?

[theking00]

@martins name I used it as an escape from reality. I think even Leo stopped meditation.

[martins name]

@theking00 interesting. It's like binge eating vegetables lol. I guess I do that to sometimes, but the distinction between 'reality' and meditation is very blurry for me so I don't mind it.

Leo still does some spiritual practices but if he wouldn't it would be because he is in the meditative state effortlessly. There is no going back from non-duality.

@theking00Love this movie ha! 

Here's another idea: start acting the complete opposite of how you would normally act in your social situations. This may give you the realization you are not bound by the conditioned beliefs you hold influencing your social anxiety
