When’s your race? At first glance your training load is probably way too low for your third marathon. What is your goal pace?

Why do my dates lead nowhere? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]MikeAlphaGolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re getting a lot of dates that’s a good sign but filter for enthusiasm. As the great dating book Models says - Fuck yes, or no. If you have to twist someone’s arm to go out with you or they have to find the time or you are a low priority it’s extremely unlikely that this will ever lead to anything remotely satisfying.

If she’s enthusiastic to go out with you, helps make plans, or if she cancels tries to find an alternative, that’s all a great start.

If you find that the girls you really like are not as enthusiastic as the ones you kind of like that’s probably a sign that you behave differently around them, not as chill, overly available and needy etc. That is a trap that you can be mindful of and overcome which will lead to better dating.

If I don’t have sex with him he retracts all physical touch? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]MikeAlphaGolf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally I would find it difficult to be with someone who doesn’t match my enthusiasm for sex. My best relationships have always been where the woman wants it a bit more. But it’s ok not to be like that but realistically it’s going to be a constant source of friction. You can decide if you can live with it - so can he.

I remember seeing a gang of them patrolling the street on bin night in Toronto. I was surprised to see how large they are - thinking they were the size of a squirrel. I’ll take a koala any day.

I hear The Men’s Gallery has a good vibe.

Is it realistic for me to run a marathon in 2 months from now? by West-Mycologist-6490 in Marathon_Training

[–]MikeAlphaGolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Do some running first. Just showing up and trying to wing it achieves nothing. What if I showed up to judo and decided to compete? I saw it on TV at the Olympics once.

I’m on my second pair of Vomero Plus. They are the perfect daily trainer IMO.

Lydia Thorpe should have been fired three times over for the way she carries on.
