The duality of approaching girls: No. 1 fled as from a radioactive threat. No. 2 proposed to show me around the mall, accompanied me for 15 min and urged me to contact her soon. She later even revealed that she had kept her boyfriend waiting to get to know me
@aruvinchan It's hard to be empathetic when they don't even bother to minimally improve their haircut, style, body fat and a dozen of other obvious and instantly fixable traits
Imagine a forest of spikes and thorns full of hidden treasures. Every time you try to get in you get hurt instantly and have to return to lick your wounds, never achieving meaningul progress.
Now imagine you could put on an armored jacket, roam the forest freely and collect all the rewards at will.
I think this stupid metaphor I came up with while trying to pick up girls applies to many aspects in life. When you become immune to failure the world opens up in previously unimaginable ways
@EvrybodynthrMom You never get too old to form beautiful connections with people.
The idea that you have to settle with a fixed old lady until death does not appeal to me, nor do I see any reason how that would make me lonely in a world full of people and experiences
@wilhelmkassel1@femalenatured Good luck then with your 18 year old schoolgirl who's too anxious to order a coffee and can't point her own country on a map
Take a look at the state of the vast majority of marriages over time and tell me if they seem spiritually fulfilled.
You can build beautiful connections with people without attempting to possess them for eternity and slowly eroding what was once a magical experience.
Seeing it as either meaningless hookup or lifelong prison severely limits your potential in forming authentic relationships
@femalenatured I quit repeating sex with the same girl quite some time ago.
Wasting a whole evening on a watered down and rehashed version of the first encounter just didn't feel worth it anymore
@butterfaegarden Comforting to know everyone discards cold approach because it supposedly doesn't work, so I can go out and reap the rewards with basically zero competition
@iamxara10 Massively insecure and can't cope with the fact that you somehow didn't wait your whole life to offer your precious virginity to them and no one else
@mazamuuun@Bnkz90 No one is debating literal crimes, we're talking about a messy interpersonal interaction where it seems you prefer to take your incomplete and biased view as something written in stone
@Bnkz90@mazamuuun What you're saying is 100% true if we're talking about delibirate damage to someone, but with the "avoidant" I strongly consider it consists of a disconnect in attraction where it is childish to crown yourself as the victim based on your incomplete view of a messy situation
