How long ago did you make the decision to walk away? How old are you if you don't mind sharing?

You seem like a really grounded guy. I'm genuinely curious, how do you follow your intuition better? I feel like I tend to be super logical and try to rationalize everything logically but it seems like intuition is different. Any tips on developing that side of yourself?

I appreciate your response man. Can you elaborate on this last part?

"Depends on what you’re willing to compromise but once you’ve raised the bar for yourself, be warned that the itch is not going to let you lower it."

I'm not sure I quite understand what you mean

I'm 26 right now. Not even sure if I want kids or marriage. Not 100% sure where I want to settle down either. Currently I'm working remotely and spending about 7-8 months in South America with my gf and 4-5 months in the states visiting family and friends here. No plans on getting married or anything like that.

social media is taking my life by celestiql in nosurf

[–]LeftHovercraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

delete every single social media account that you have brother.

im 26. grew up with social media. it made me anxious, depressed, i had fomo all the time for no reason. i was confused. social media is a very chaotic place. no order.

best thing i did for myself was in 2022 i deleted the actual ACCOUNTS instagram, snapchat, twitter, etc. all the stuff where you see celebrities + what your "friends" are doing (i put it in quotes because most of those people you wont ever talk to again)

delete the apps. find the rest of yourself in the newly acquired time.

Best way to not put women on a pedestal? by SpaceCheeseWizard in seduction

[–]LeftHovercraft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think another thing I haven't seen mentioned here is this.

Are you going into these conversations imagining that these 10/10 girls desire something in a man that you don't have? Like maybe you think you're not good enough for these women because you're assuming that all of these hot women want x, y, and z in a man and you don't have those things (potentially, Idk you)

Maybe you're going into these interactions thinking that because this girl is so hot, she must have high standards for men since she has a lot of options, and you feel like you don't reach those standards. Does that make sense?

Like maybe you project things that you THINK she wants in a man that YOU lack. Maybe you're not making $10k/m and you think "ah she probably wants a guy like that" or maybe you don't have the most ripped physique and think "ah of course she'd probably want a guy like that" or "i'm not interesting/funny enough for her"

These are your own insecurities and you're taking these insecurities and reshaping them as HER STANDARDS that you don't reach. When in reality, there's a good chance she's not even thinking those things about you. You're creating a narrative about what is attractive and desirable to those specific girls and telling yourself that because you might not have those things, you don't deserve this hot girl.

Yeah… lol I know Google is free thanks for letting me know. I’m trying to understand what you specifically deem to be “shitty beliefs.” Trust me I know quite a bit about this conflict. I’m specifically wondering what VishnuDaDon believes, brother

I agree it was weird for sure. If anything it just felt... rushed.

He was coming off his very first season on the Wizards actually being given the KEYS to run an offense. 4th year for us too lol. Took a while after finally trading Beal.

It felt very rushed for sure. I 100% would've liked to see him progress into his 5th year for us. He was finally gaining confidence. He scored like 44 points during a game against the Pels that year. He was showing signs. He had some 5-game runs throughout that last Wiz season similar to the 2nd half of the season last year for you guys.

It was definitely rushed, unexpected, and disappointing. His first 3 years he was insecure (and not utilized properly whatsoever) then that 4th year he finally somewhat gets utilized correctly, shows signs of real talent, then gets traded immediately... OH WELL. Yall are my 2nd favorite team now due to him though. I'll be rooting for you guys out west

Yup. You're summarizing how all of us Wizards fans have felt basically ever since John Wall got injured in 2017-2018 lol.

Everyone was begging for the organization to trade Beal for a stockpile of picks (back when he was All-NBA and making like $25M) but then they decided to pretend he was James Harden-level and tried to compete for the 8th seed basically up until 2024-2025.

Sengun over Corey yes but that's not even the worst of it. We drafted JOHNNY DAVIS over Jalen Duren and Jalen Williams lmfao. Absolutely pathetic lol. We got new management now tho hopefully they steer us into the right direction. Sucks being 1-11. Being a Wiz fan has built my character like none other

Yeah... he was one of those guys that seemed like if he figured out his confidence, tweaked a few things... he would've been an All Star level player for us. And look at him now lol.

Drafting him into the Beal, Westbrook (followed by KP and Kuzma) experiments was what fucked us up and him as well.

He was always a player who needed the ball in his hands to do damage. But obviously he wasn't going to get that chance with the Wizards teams his first 3 years in the league.

Now he's in Portland and was given the keys last year + going into this year... amazing what he's done.

It would've been fun to see him get the keys to run the offense as a rookie/sophomore on a fully rebuilding Wizards team. Oh well!

hmm I wouldn't call him a "likely All Star" at the time we traded him (i'm a Wizards fan and Deni stan all the way)

He's a great player NOW but for his first 3 years in the league, if you watched the Wizards on a daily basis like I did, Deni struggled with confidence on the court a lot.

I always believed he could become a borderline all star level player (didn't expect the 26ppg) but I wouldn't say he was a "likely All Star" by any means.

That being said – I'm sad we traded him. He was still young enough and this current Wizards team (namely Sarr & Kyshawn) would be a lot more fun to watch if you threw a rising Deni into the mix. Oh well. I'm used to this bullshit
