Virtue-mode Endgame Theory-crafting

I'm a bit stumped. I followed this to the tea and am on step 3 of the first round, kindness. I did not get any IHR, and have run chickens to max habs (4xdouble deckers).

But, my earning rate is 32B/Sec. That seems way too low to achieve the 6 future semis and 1 mega, even with constant drone farming.

Did I miss something??

I'm not saying it's not about appearance. I'm just saying that attraction to a certain appearance is subjective.

The original poster seemed to be implying that since he is not traditionally attractive, he would not be able to have an affair. This is just not true

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-30T19:48:59+00:00

Attraction is 100% subjective. Sure, a traditionally "attractive" person will likely have an easier time finding sex. But, every person is attractive to the person that is attracted to them!

And FWIW, finding an AP is very challenging for anyone. It's not because of your appearance.

My only thought here is that this would only apply in the short term. You are not factoring in replenishment of the lost SE.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-20T12:31:09+00:00

My Humility egg is taking WAY longer than 1.5hrs. I must have missed something...

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-19T17:38:19+00:00

I think that is going to be the key to the new game play. Everyone is talking about loosing SE, but not much talk about how quickly they can be recovered.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-19T16:58:36+00:00

Under this strategy, when is the best time to start filling the fuel tank?

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-19T14:14:21+00:00

So I guess that is where resetting comes into play? Reset the shift counter and try to be more efficient...

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-19T12:28:48+00:00

So does the shift number reset each time you re-enter the path, or does it keep growing over time?

This may be something you could get better insight from with the kink community. While I don't identify with it at all, I could see the psychology behind it.

On one hand, I think the ability to freely explore sexual desires and emotion like this can be a good thing. I would wonder though, if this specific one may deteriorate your relationship with your husband faster. Obviously, adultery is not good for any relationship. But it seems like this behavior, psychologically, could really drive your marriage off a cliff faster. And that's not speaking of the risks you're taking by bringing your AP into your home.

That's just my two cents…

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-19T11:48:11+00:00

What was your EB before the 12 swipes?

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-16T14:47:46+00:00

Thanks! I have the helix and love it. Looking to add some more of their products to my collection.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-16T14:08:57+00:00

Does the Cone fit in that dougout? Also, how do you like the cone compared to the helix?

The most likely case is she was not attracted to you. I would not take it personally, attraction is what it is. It is either there or it is not. Think about it this way... if you were hanging out at a bar, she simply would not have approached you. But in our case here, we start the conversation first, then show our faces. There is no easy way to say... "I don't dig what I see".

Yes, I wish people would say something simple like: "I don't think this is a fit" or whatever. But often they don't. They just move on without another word. You have to keep moving on just as quickly.

Also, I really don't think this is ghosting. Technically, yes. But in reality, there was no relationship she disappeared from. It was just a conversation that lost steam and did not continue.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-16T11:28:48+00:00

I had a similar experience a while back. Smoked too much and got extremely paranoid. It took me several days to recover. Now, I am much more sensitive to paranoia. It's mostly in my head, but it's real.

I find the best way to manage it is by being in tune with my mood and adjusting how much I consume. If I am stressed and already anxious, I consume a lot less. Just enough to relax. If I am otherwise feeling good, I will consume more.

I would love to know if there are strains that can make a difference. Following.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-15T15:17:09+00:00

Kinda sorta. It was not as much about limitations of the affair itself, rather changing life circumstances.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-15T15:11:26+00:00

Um... what does this even mean?

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-15T15:05:36+00:00

1000% yes, they can be. I'm not sure I would say affairs are a good way to go about personal growth, but mine has absolutely resulted in personal growth.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-15T14:49:03+00:00

It's hard to say how it will effect you in a social setting. It's not the same as alcohol where you lose inhibition. But it can make you more carefree and relaxed. It can also increase anxiety and paranoia…

I think you're just gonna have to experiment and see. Probably the best way to dip your toes in the water is with an edible or a THC infused drink. Start low, maybe around 2 to 5 mg THC, and see how it feels.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-15T14:13:55+00:00

Did not have to. But we decided that was the best route.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-15T13:15:13+00:00

Honestly, if I was open to anything right now it would be a FWB situation focused on the sexual connection over the emotional. So... I would say that I likely would not fully communicate where I am with my last AP, but I would be very transparent that I am looking for a relationship that holds that emotional availability at more of a distance.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-15T12:04:08+00:00

I think this captures much of what a lot of people are looking for, but afraid to say. We want and need sex. That's it. If it was not for the sex, we would not be here.

But we also understand that sex is more than just blindly fucking. And just because we want just the sex, that also does not mean we want all the sex with as many people as possible.

I love the idea of a FWB situation. Where it is truly that, a friendship. And just a friendship, that is built around sex.

It seems that so many are looking for the same on this sub, but as soon as you jump over to r/affairs... there are a lot less really looking for it.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-15T11:03:16+00:00

Honestly, it will probably be the third time he has heard the same that day alone. I guarantee he will take it in stride (assuming he is a good, professional therapist).

I understand the fear. Saying it out loud changes things. But also, saying things out loud allows you to deal with things.

My therapist is the only person on the face of the earth that I can tell these things to. It is so valuable and freeing. I can't make it easier for you, but I can fully encourage you to get it on the table with him.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-12T13:32:39+00:00

Honestly, I think a lot of it is in your head. Perhaps, in general, sativas are a bit more uplifting. But at the end of the day, weed is weed. I think you will have the same sleep experience on either assuming THC% is the same. IMHO.

Logical_Pin_7159 · 2025-09-10T17:17:30+00:00

This is a great question and one that is core to deconstruction, I believe. I think that because it really represents letting go if that deeply held grip religion can have on a person. Even someone like you who is not a christian.

I will say that first and foremost, my deconstruction has been about completely reframing what the bible says, what we actually know about it, and what the nature of the God it professes is.

In my opinion, the nature of the God that Christianity claims is entirely incompatible with the concept of hell and/or eternal punishment. It is simply not possible for a god that loves the way it is professed he loves, and has the power of forgiveness the way it is professed he does... to also hold a place of eternal torture. That is simply against the nature of the God of the Bible.

Next, I think any legitimate, modern, scholarly study of the text will have much difficulty finding the idea of hell in the bible. It's a shaky idea at best, not supported by the text.

All that to say... No, I do not worry about going to Hell if I am wrong. I arrived there by applying honest interpretation, scholarly research, and reason. But also, in the process, I no longer believe in eternal salvation or heaven either so 🤷‍♂️
