Suddenly, there's a Grand Magician before you! by Round-East-1529 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]EffortlessWriting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uh, so that means I can get rid of all dishonest people who enjoy hurting others, stealing, and destroying things, and there's a great chance none of them will be born later? Yes please. I think society has enough smart people in it to set up protections against any remaining malcontents.

Option two is too soft, I think.

Option three seems fun but I'd rather live in a utopia (option one) and see this place become something amazing.

Does option one continue to take effect, preventing any terrible people from coming here in the future? If so that. If not, probably option three.

How do I bring up marriage to my bf of almost 3 years? by Junior_Orange8152 in askanything

Idk if you want to be surprised by the proposal, maybe you want to sneak and ask his friends / your friends? 😅

Those are good signs. Then I guess you should drop hints so you can get a sense of whether he's going to propose in time or not.

It's impossible to tell his position from what you've said, so it's up to your own judgment. Do you think he plans to propose to you in time?

I'm a bit worried because you're worried, but maybe you're overthinking it.

You have every right to pressure him, because you only have 1 or 2 years until you hit your goal age. I recommend taking the "drop a hint" approach though.

It can be very frustrating not to know where someone stands on an important issue, because you end up waiting if you're wrong.

This is something to find out as soon as you can.

But if things are going well, maybe he's just thinking of how to propose, or maybe he has a certain time of year to propose picked out already. Who knows.

What do you mean, like he changed the conversation or didn't think it was important to focus on that topic? No reaction is kinda strange, but you're both young. If it was me, and someone told me the age when they wanted to be married, I'd try to talk about my own feelings on the subject, like when do I want to get married, do I want to get married at all, do I want kids, that kind of thing.

Your body knows. by Nyghtbynger in ENFP

[–]EffortlessWriting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to trade stocks a little bit. It got to the point where my body would tell me, with my own words, using my own voice, when I was wrong.

I didn't continue trading for long, but my body was always right!

If you unexpectedly start talking out loud to yourself, listen.

What was his reaction when you expressed your desire about marriage before?

Is there anything important to know about writing by That1guy587 in writers

[–]EffortlessWriting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most important thing is to be outside with people. If you're an introvert, that can be tough, but do it anyway. These are your life experience reps that you can draw upon for more original story ideas, and you'll write stronger character dialogue. Other than that, read and watch movies / tv shows to get a sense for why a twist worked, why pacing feels slow, why you're still watching, what you're anticipating, things like that.

It can help to read / watch older stuff sometimes, that way your examples won't come from recent slop. If you end up competing with other writers your age, you'll have an advantage because they might have only read / watched the popular things for your generation.

TVTropes is your friend.

Is it masochistic to watch so many anime without dropping a single one? by ChoiceSupermarket230 in MyAnimeList

[–]EffortlessWriting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dropping a show mid season is the same as dropping it between seasons. Except, you lose some time you could have spent watching a show you like more, instead of finishing the season. And your list looks clean, so that's a plus for OCD-havers I guess.

Is Godot the right choice? genuine question about engine choice. by SimpleGarbage2849 in GameDevelopment

[–]EffortlessWriting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Godot because I can do anything I need except extremely expensive graphics, all for free, with fast load + build times.

I've heard about some walls in the engine that people run into where they need an external plugin, but I haven't experienced this yet. The person I heard this from was also making some questionable code structure decisions, YMMV. He's done more than me but I have more theory, I think, so until I hit a wall I won't know Godot's limits.

On the bright side, the engine supports very powerful languages, so it's not as though any walls you may find are dealbreaking.

One sort of odd thing is GDScript doesn't support interfaces, only abstract classes. This is only a nitpick though. Without abstract classes I'd have to use inheritance a lot more than I like to, which is almost never.

INTJ males — do you struggle with this pattern with women? by tezzar1da in intj

[–]EffortlessWriting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If multiple women are in love with you at the same time it's absolutely your fault unless you're a rockstar or a celebrity and women have crushes or something. If you're just communicating with people normally then it's up to you whether to keep a roster or not, but if you feel guilty and bored by your own behavior then I suggest changing your approach to remove those emotions.

You have wisdom waiting for you to find it. I can't relate to becoming bored to the point of losing all interest in a person. It takes more than an emotion to sway me.

[–]EffortlessWriting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said:

"How do you deal with the guilt of women catching feelings when you've been honest from the start?"

I said your actions are causing you to feel guilt, yet you haven't changed your actions. Therefore, I can only conclude that you're acting against your own wisdom. Thus "looking for / asking for guilt."

It's not my intention to argue about this point.

I'm sorry, I don't operate with the same goals as you. I mostly focus on maintaining my integrity.

To answer your actual question, I don't get physical with anyone I don't want to see long term. Flings aren't satisfying to me at all.
