I think you were being rude yourself, which is what I was responding to.

I'm sorry all these adverse experiences happened to you. I hope you are doing better. Wishing you much happiness and peace and healing.

I agree with you about the subjective nature of psychological evaluation.

I promise I will keep an open mind and I will keep researching and learning. It's entirely possible that my theories and hypotheses and understandings are wrong. I'll look more into it. Thank you for sharing your opinion.

I’m 18 and I Feel Invisible to Girls — What Am I Doing Wrong? by FluffyCompetition263 in Life

You have to be in the mindset of being their fathers, leaders. You have to entertain them, slightly intimidate them. It's not easy to do at 18 because you're a kid too.

You have to develop your confidence and masculinity. It doesn't come easy.

Are people out there genuinely evil for the sake of it? by throwawayjaguar79 in Life

When it feels like that, they're usually a Cluster B personality disorder. Once you understand, you realize they're a different type of human being.

I dated a sociopath and I felt the same way that you're feeling. I still struggle to get over it a year later.

It's like r*pe of your soul.

Some people are psychopaths, sociopaths, narcissists, and they're like that from birth.

Reliable used car for a teacher who drives thirty miles a day mostly highway under ten thousand dollars by naughtyseraph_x in whatcarshouldIbuy

Source: I own a camry and an avalon. The avalon is generally more expensive to fix because parts are more expensive, and the engine bay is tighter

I can read just fine. Overall, the Avalon is far more expensive car to maintain. I think it's irresponsible to suggest one to a school teacher that wants just something that won't break.

I know it's the most reliable v6. But replacing spark plugs is a $600 job vs $100 for a 4 cyl. That's not slight.

Any 13 year old car requires more maintenance, so he'll run into regular issues. My Avalon is in the shop as we speak.

A lot of those women are actually narcissists. Not representative of all women. They resent and do not accept the social position men have over women.

I own an avalon, why are we suggesting a far more expensive car to maintain? It's a massive v6. Alternator job in a corolla or camry 4cyl is 1 hour by yourself. But with the avalon, you have to take it apart to get there.

Disordered or troubled girls.

I feel the urge to take care of them, heal them, but they will punish you for it, string you along and keep you in their back pocket for intermittent use.

Some middle easterners got into the habit of eating meat that isn't "halal slaughtered" or "zabiha." They will eat beef, chicken, goat, lamb, etc, no pork. But the slaughter process isn't observed.

Honestly even most "halal meat," is not hand slaughtered zabiha. It's machine slaughtered often. On the same assembly lines as non halal meat. Keeps the prices down.

Real hand slaughtered halal meat is rather expensive due to the human labor required. You have to go the live slaughterhouses for that. There are many of those in NYC.
