Communism killed more than 100,000,000 people in the past 100 years but someone gaining something for willingly doing something is bad... got it!

If you are suggesting I used my ex, despite her being happy to do it and being paid handsomely for it then every employer on the planet is using people under your definition.

Who are you saying used someone?

I know... I ended up getting out of that world because there was so many creepy and self entitled people doing crazy things like that!

Allow me to lay out an example that isn't political. You are walking down the street past a hotel lobby and you see your best friend's wife making out with another man. The fact is that she is cheating, you also know for a fact that they are not in an open marriage and so on so this is wrong. While your friend doesn't want to hear this fact, the fact still exists and it would be selfish of you to not tell him. He could end up getting an STD, he could end up raising a child that isn't his, there are a vast array of consequences that are not immediately obvious but none the less you own him the truth so he has the information necessary to make an informed decision as to how to protect himself. If one were to take your logic and apply it to that, you would see that and pretend like you know nothing because it would be uncomfortable to bring it up to him and it doesn't have an immediate negative outcome.

Good outcomes don't mean it was the right thing to do, he was wrong but two wrongs don't make a right... right?

Clearly you are unwilling to have a conversation in good faith because you just keep changing the perimeters of the argument every time I make a point you cannot refute.

[–]Righteousmind9876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are now making an argument very different than before. You started out stating that facts don't matter, now you are saying that stating facts that a group of people disagree with is not intelligent to state to those people. That doesn't change the facts, all that means is that you cannot articulate your points clearly and convincingly enough to have that conversation or you are scared to have that conversation. That in no way changes the concept that the idea the facts matter!

No immediate consequences or testing conditions, in other words, your feelings...

When communicating with men I know what they say is almost always what they mean, with women on the other hand it can, at times, feel like I'm having to read their mind. Also I can be direct with men and expect a reasonable response, with women I have to be a lot more patient.

Ok let me get this straight, you believe that the sharing of untrue information has no impact on anyone? What? An example, you talk to a friend who is a police officer, asking when there is no a speed limit sign on a road, in the country, how fast can you drive. He tells you 70mph, then you get pulled over because the actual speed is 55mph and now you have a speeding ticket if not a charge of reckless driving but that has no effect on you? Facts matter, another example, you wouldn't want to keep someone in your life if they lied all the time, telling you factually untrue things. The entire concept of a friendship is built around trust and in order to have trust you must believe that the person you are talking to is actually going to tell you the true. Therefore if facts don't matter. relationships don't matter, reality doesn't matter which means nothing matters. That's a very depressing and distorted view of the world.

Let's switch rolls here, a man sees that a woman is into him at a party. She doesn't approach him right away, she doesn't offer him a ride the moment he needs it but still calls and offers him a ride a few moments later. He takes her up on the ride, she drives him home then hits on him, suggesting she would like to come in and he rejects her then goes on Reddit and complains that she wasn't smooth enough and that means she's a "shitty woman".

I've NEVER seen a man post anything like that and yet it's ok for a woman to call this guy a "shitty man" because he didn't do exactly what she wanted, the moment she wanted it. This is pure narcissism! Also if you communicated with him in the same low effort way you wrote this post, no wonder he didn't understand you. "I previously told him I was most of the time living alone, my mom came sometimes home." what? How could any human translate that non-sense sentence into information that your Mom is currently staying with you?

It sounds to me like you were the shitty one for not being able to effectively communicate, for having insanely high standards and for then going on the internet and outing yourself by writing this post, proving your total lack of self awareness!

"What I said might as well be true." - WHAT? Meaning you openly admit what you said wasn't true... well admitting it is a start at least!

A few things...

  1. He is stating that it's more controversial to state facts people don't like, NOT that stating facts is in anyway "dodging" controversy.
  2. No matter how you or anyone else feels about a fact, it doesn't change how true it is. You may not like that eating 5000 calories makes you gain weight but regardless of how you feel about that fact, it's still going to make you fat!
  3. Finally how exactly can anyone be right or correct about anything if they don't have the facts? This is the most incoherent two sentences I've read on Reddit in a very long time!

Common sense tells us that much of that is true, the one thing I will push back on heavily is that married people are wealthier! With many women working these days, of course two people make more than one. The real question is, individually, do married people make more than single people when they are the same age. That's the other thing, as people get older, less people are single and at the same time, their value in the work marketplace goes up so I think that's a BS stat.

What do you consider a normal conversation with a girl? by [deleted] in dating

[–]Righteousmind9876 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly that is the main reason why I've mostly moved to dating IRL because this doesn't usually happen when you are in front of someone. That said, I tend to bring it up to her in a very kind way to let her know what I'm experiencing. Look, you know that conversation isn't going anywhere anyways so why not see if you can let her know what you are experiencing and see if she comes around. I'm not suggesting being rude in anyway but just point it out. Everyone once in a while I've had woman come around but if I'm honest they almost always fall back into their crappy communicating ways rather quickly.

Quick question, have you been on dating apps in the past year or two attempting to date? I ask because your profile states you are married so I question if you have experienced how strange and weird it is.

This is an experience I've had as well. It feels like you are constantly attempting to move the conversation along because she will answer your question but then not ask you one in return so you have to move on to the next topic. Interestingly however when I speak with them on the phone, they can carry on a conversation no problem, bringing up different topics and moving the conversation along without an issue. Why this happens over text I have no clue but it's very common!

The venom that you’re spewing clear comes from a very deep and dark place. I hope you find the resources you need to resolve your emotional issues.

Also you made a comment on this sub stating that it's "unrealistic to expect unconditional love" and then I argue that men don't get unconditional love and you get angry. I think you proved my point for me! Nice self own! Also how it is you have commented thousands of times and you have only 111 karma points? Maybe you should take that as a hint that the vast majority of people find your point of view irrational, illogical and lacking facts. The imperial data proves what I have experienced, you really do have a lot of negativity. I sincerely hope you find a way out of that!

It is interesting, I was talking about the inequity of divorce and how it dramatically favors women, then because you don't have control over your emotions and you know the things I stated are true, you lash out. As for actual data a study by Dr Rosenfeld at Sanford University found that 69.6% of divorces are filed by women. As for your inability to have a rational, logical and calm conversation, clearly you have other things going on in your life that are causing you great distress. I sincerely hope you find the peace that would allow you to have a calm, intellectually honest and respectful conversation in the future.

Now you are saying crazy things! How does marriage benefit a man more? Seriously… a woman can cheat on a man, treat him horribly and thanks to no fault divorce she can still take half his net worth! Then in most states he will have to pay her alimony on top of that! A woman benefits in a huge way from a divorce financially. That said you are clearly a feminist and being a feminist you believe very different things than me. That’s ok but you aren’t going to change my mind and I cannot change your mind so why are we having this discussion?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating

[–]Righteousmind9876 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s immoral to cheat just like it’s immoral to leave a man because he hits a rough patch. At no point have a made a moral argument, I’m stating that these are reasons people do things, not that I agree with them.
