im learning to be a lover of uncertainty. im getting used to her scent, learning to relax and find beauty in the swirls, sensing the different gradations of temptation, suspense, high variability, unknown plot twists
In terms of thermodynamics, this is bad advice. The body can only generate so much heat. The blanket can provide insulation but only up to a certain point. Meanwhile, the room keeps getting colder and colder. So yeah, he has to close the window.
namjoon, you don't always have to be the one getting up from the couch to close the window when it's too cold. sometimes, just take a blanket and keep yourself warm.
Yes. If anything, I think it can get problematic when the only reason you strive to be good is because you believe in God. What happens if someone proves God doesn't exist? You'll just throw all your values away?
"Women should be held to a much higher moral standard than men."
It wasn't that long ago when I argued with someone for saying that women should break their rules for men, that the only reason I haven't broken my rules is because I haven't found a man worth breaking them for ๐
So women are expected to uphold higher standards than men? But women are also expected to lower their standards for men? Holy moly guacamole. What in the fresh avocado hell is this? ๐

I just realized something. In my best friend group, this is the only one who's never had any romantic allegations with meโbecause everyone knew he's gay. In addition to my two guy best friends, even my girl best friend and I had allegations. Some people thought we were lesbians.
Your best friend is a boy (which already is just really foolish, but whatever) and he wants you but you've friendzoned him, which is why he says nonsense like this. Because it lets him tell himself some noble reason for why you're not attracted to him.
It also lets him preserve a noble reason for why you are seemingly drawn to ruthless, immoral, high testosterone and unempathetic men ("bad boys") - which I presume he is not. Which, by the way, is a strike against you, and a very basic, common, inelegant and unattractive thing, but he is not wise enough to see that - that you being drawn to abuser energy is a sickness within you. Notice he says "you attract bad boys" - you don't uniquely attract them, because you also attracted him, you are *uniquely attracted* to them, and that is a problem with you.
Do neither of your parents teach you anything? Sorry, I live in England, I can't father everyone on the planet. But yes, you should stop chasing mean men and have some self-respect, and he should have some self-respect and stop accepting a friendship with girl he would actually like romance with.
Best of luck to you.
@arigotmyjewels I've only been around one lesbian couple up close. It was back in high school. If you mean the whole "women are emotional creatures" thing, then yeah. I guess it made sense that they lasted as long as they didโone of them was more emotionally regulated.
