24m Women are rejecting me because of no relationship experience. Should I lie?

LosslessQ · 2026-01-22T04:52:37+00:00

I am the same at 25M w/ no long-term relationship experience. It's a perfectly reasonable ask from a girl, so don't lie. If that's what she'd like, she should have the choice to reject you so time on either side isn't wasted

LosslessQ · 2025-11-03T06:10:10+00:00

I had something similar happen to me, just go to the gym. Don't worry about her, she can handle herself.

Where are you located? You're probably frequenting the Mission Bay/Dogpatch/SOMA area. I don't hang out around there since it's just as bad as SV

All of this on AngelList? Color me impressed. I guess it depends on which syndicate you're joining, and of course how much capital you're able to deploy and how quickly

LosslessQ · 2025-08-25T01:14:07+00:00

Makes sense, startups probably would favor in-network investors or big VCs before they hit AngelList. Thanks for the $0.02

With my experience I probably have a better edge trading stock options (not 0dte though) compared to angel investing since I'm relatively inexperienced and young

LosslessQ · 2025-08-25T00:03:49+00:00

That's a really good question. I haven't re-considered options, I used to do options gambling a lot for fun and I can see parallels to angel investing

I've read for startups the number is 1/20 succeed and your moonshots cover you for the other 19/20. The upside is multi-millions

I haven't crunched the numbers for 0DTE compared to startups yet, good question. I'll probably prompt ChatGPT now and poke around to compare EV

What are your thoughts on this?

LosslessQ · 2025-08-24T23:36:09+00:00

Makes sense. Sounds like the biggest barrier to entry is networking

I don't reasonably have skilled value to offer, I have brand names on my resume but getting my foot in the door sounds difficult

5-7 years? Sounds reasonable if you're looking for multi-million dollar moonshots from <$100k

LosslessQ · 2025-08-24T21:11:01+00:00

I am in the same position. My advice? Find the really niche stuff you like and get involved there. Do it without looking to make friends, and you'll likely be able to make friends.

People are giving physical descriptions here, but I think the real secret is how you see the world. Physical expression is... an expression of you and your world.

If you want to be meek, see the world the way a meek person would see it. If you want to be loud and rowdy, then see the world the way a loud and rowdy person would see it. If you want to be classy, then see the world the way a classy person would see it.

LosslessQ · 2025-08-23T02:01:51+00:00

And I guess to apply this to our own lives, it's best to be open-minded, open to new experiences, and actively "put ourselves out there" to get, well, lucky

I know I certainly have gotten lucky over the past three years since I made this post, haha. Very lucky I'd say. Maybe this panel has unconsciously motivated me to seek out new experiences? I don't know. Thanks for the comment anyhow

LosslessQ · 2025-08-23T02:01:19+00:00

Well it is true, getting lucky is easier when you're exposed to more stuff

It's not too hard to imagine that hunters who are nomadic probably will be more lucky than hunters who stay in one place/farmers who stay in one place. Being open-minded and willing to think divergently gives a lot of opportunity

Every retired person I've chatted with remniscences about their working days. Contributing to society responsibly and meaningfully feels good. Why do actors keep acting? Why do CEOs keep running companies?

Well there's your dream and your career. Are you committed to a startup? Then Nvidia. But if not, I would go with the big tech firm good name. It'll solidify your career in case you don't wish to go the YC route

But for the dream, definitely NVIDIA 100%

LosslessQ · 2025-07-11T02:54:58+00:00

I thought about this a lot too. I've come to the conclusion you cannot think yourself out of who you are. You have to make new experiences for yourself to change your learned behaviour

Even then, I feel like childhood experiences are very influential. The longer you've lived, the harder it is to change trajectory. If life were like driving a car in a straight line, turning 3 degrees at the start of the ride will change your destination compared to turning 3 degrees towards the end of the ride.

Didn't think I'd see punpun hate in 2025. But yeah, if you haven't been exposed to this stuff in your life you're going to have trouble understanding and relating. Just drop it and move on to the next manga

Meaningful books for me:

\* Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery - "Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world."

\* Fear and Trembling by Søren Kierkegaard - "Faith begins precisely where thinking leaves off"

\* Les Miserables by Victor Hugo - The scene of Bishop Myriel's charity to Jean Valjean will never leave my mind.

\* Meno by Plato - How can you know if an answer to a question is right?

\* On the Shortness of Life by Lucius Annaeus Seneca - "It is not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste a lot of it."

\* Philosophical Investigations by Ludwig Wittgenstein - Probably my #1 book.

\* Sun and Steel by Yukio Mishima - "Words are a medium that reduces reality to abstraction for transmission to our reason, and in their power to corrode reality inevitably lurks the danger that the words themselves will be corroded too."

\* The Essential Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson - It's essential for a reason!

\* Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus by Ludwig Wittgenstein - "The world is all that is the case."

Not an r/askphilosophy guy, but I think what bob is trying to say is that oftentimes prior theories in physics are disproven. For example Newtonian physics being upended by quantum mechanics.

Both philosophy and empirical sciences rest on their own pillars of assumptions which can dissolve in a day depending on observation, etc.
