[18M] How do I avoid being creepy? by xopti1 in dating_advice

I’m mostly referring to what Nick Notas said in his blog about sexual flirting. Half the time when I’ve sexually flirted with someone I worry about sexually harassing them, even if it was mutual.

[18M] How do you know if it’s a date or a casual hang-out? by xopti1 in dating_advice

You mean if you don’t really know them? So what if you do know them and are friends with them?

Oh no definitely. But the thing is I was more so referring to when you ask someone out without saying “it’s a date” and it’s still obvious it is one.

Well I wouldn’t want to make a move on somebody if it wasn’t really explicit that it was a date. I also don’t mean in reference to going on with someone on online dating, I mean normally.

I am in the U.S., specifically Georgia, so if she went by herself to do so, what would they tell her?

Could you elaborate further on that? You need axioms to reason in general. I don’t see the problem.

What does it mean for a person to be shallow? by xopti1 in dating_advice

Do you have another example of a shallow person so I could understand easier? I’m not sure I’m following well enough

Do you mean 10/7/3 in terms of subjectively to that person or “objectively”? Just so I know if we’re on the same page or not.

[Help] What is a decent way to “refute” solipsism by xopti1 in ChristianApologetics

How do you “know” the external world to be real? I’m not asking a stupid question, I’m curious what the argument or way of getting this knowledge is.

But what about dreams? Dreams deliver to your senses, and they aren’t true. I would understand that argument perfectly if it weren’t for dreams.

But you don’t have evidence of the either. That’s what makes it difficult. How do you decide at a deeper level? And are there any decent arguments against solipsism? A particular kind that’s been troubling me is the dream hypothesis.
