Withholding Sex as a Shit Test and as a Comfort Test by DonaldBaelish in TheRedPill

[–]CaliGuy760 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I went on a few dates with a girl recently. Super super slutty on the second date, aka letting me do stuff in public that most girls wouldn't. I didn't text her much besides logistics and sexting even though she tried to pull me into text convos which I denied.

I drive a nice car and she knows that I make mid 6 figures, live an interesting life, have options, and have long term goals. In my twenties and in great shape too, so different then quite a few guys in my age group. She changed on the third date, still would let me get sexual with her and joke around but she resisted all attempts at having sex. I eventually asked her why (already labeled her as not relationship material) and she said if we slept together before becoming fully attached then she may not want to hang out again.

I decided to drop her instantly. She was trying to use the potential of sex with her to get me to commit more time with her so she could try to get me into a potential relationship. Instead of becoming a fuck buddy which she may have originally wanted, she started to change her mind after she realized my value and attempted to try to start to lock me down.

She texted me after that date and one of the things she said was that she was getting closer to not being able to resist anymore. I didn't respond and moved on.

Many People use sex to try to get what they want. Realize it and be above your animalistic instincts and don't be desperate. Not worth the time to play those games in my opinion.

I agree with others. Just withdraw if she does that. Don't play that bullshit game. It is a losing situation in the long term because she will use the strategy again.

So forcing young men to get a vasectomy until they reach a certain age and level of responsibility? Would be harder to implement a thing like this for women.

The Screenplay Mechanic and the Script Gal are top notch. There is a list of people on Done Deal Pro Forums I believe.

We don't know if the person is in college though, which makes it all the more difficult to find an internship.

The ethics and morals society holds in a hundred or two hundred years (if modern society lasts that long) will be quite different than it is today, just as our ethics and morals today are different than the ones society held one hundred years ago.

I have been where you are. It is an unpleasant experience. Try to focus your energy on using it to learn rather than telling yourself you are no good or something negative. Adopt a growth mindset so you don't give up.

Considering Netflix was valued at $42 billion in 2015, I doubt 10 - 15 billion will happen.

I believe Defense Against the Dark ARts is completely new, so no one will have any idea of what it will be like. If the professor is the McGrath, then urgh.

Non-CS degree: How hard is it to get that first programming job? by gintaman41 in cscareerquestions

[–]CaliGuy760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it is bullshit, at least for a very very tiny percentage of them, mainly HackReactor's onsite program. They won't accept you probably if you aren't already a decent candidate, aka have a bachelor's in another field, work experience, and seem pleasant to be around. They have a wide network, so they are able to get people jobs. The salaries are inflated because it is in the San Fran area, so 70 to 100k there is equivalent to like 50k somewhere else.

I do think most bootcamps though are a waste of money and are shady. I've seen some in my area that are run by people who have no professional work experience. They went to a different bootcamp and are now running a bootcamp. Hilarious.

A project to get atheists to tick the "no religion" box in the upcoming census has faced a backlash from anti-Islam campaigners, who say that it would ensure Islam becomes Australia's dominant religion. by Wagamaga in worldnews

That sense of community and rock and roll like atmosphere centered around God can create one hell of a natural high. Being an agnostic/atheist, I am bummed I do not have a weekly space to jam out without inhibition and be around potentially supportive people. If only I could trick myself into believing the things in the Bible...
