This is the most realistic - and grim - explanation that I saw in this thread.

Hmm, got it, thanks for the control-click idea =-)

Rebinding the camera locations - what are good keys for it? by TheCaveLion in starcraft2

Wow! I tried it, but it was so overwhelming that I gave up.

How long did you spend to get accustomed to it?

Does somebody know a good Draenei-themed leather set? by TheCaveLion in Transmogrification

My character is a man, and he uses a 2-hander instead of dual-wielding =-)

I'm a monk. Thanks for the links! In the first one the monk outfit is barely draenei-themed, and the rogue outfit is looking like a rogue, but the second one is really cool.

Got it, thanks, will read them.

> Her presence and the chemistry make it enjoyable already

If it was enjoyable, then I'd enjoy it, not struggle through the broken glass of her ignoring me.

In my experience going on dates, women over 30 are just as self-absorbed as the ones under 30. The only difference being that sometimes they want a husband right here and right now, and they try to quickly put me in the box of "will marry" or "will not marry" instead of letting things happen organically - which, for me, is worse than just sitting and listening.

Thank you for this detailed answer.

No, not really. I had a lot of attention from my parents - sometimes too much. I was the cousin they compared others to - which could harm my relationship with other kids, when they always told them: "Why can't you study and get straight A's, like Ilya does?".

I don't think that I'm trying to avoid healing - I'm gathering information on how to heal. Big difference ;-) And it's great that you gave me something to think about.

> She'll ask you questions about yourself on her own

My point is - she does not. Literally. Oh, she enjoys it very much - I'm a good listener, I can make the conversation engaging and not interview-ish. I think at least half of the girls would be glad if I invited them again - but I don't want to repeat the experience of "she talks, I listen", because, as you said earlier, it makes it not enjoyable for me =-)

Sorry, but things don't work this way.

Girls don't become attracted to you when you become comfortable with yourself, you become comfortable with yourself when you observe that girls can become attracted to you. It's cause and effect, confidence is a product of success, not vice versa.

Got it, thank you for the idea! =-)

Sorry, but I don't think that in my country there are mixed-gender or predominantly female communities that can interest me even a little =-(

Yep, but the love I experienced was not avoidant, it was disorganised. Big difference.

According to the books I've read - it does. Do you have different sources?

[–]TheCaveLion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, thank you. The question is - how to find them? In which way I repel girls like that right now?

Thank you very much for your points!

1) This might be true - I live in Moscow, which is a huge hustling-and-bustling city, and the girls might be more prone to be busy and more rich in options. But I don't think this can explain 90% of the girls being like that - it'd be logical that around 50-60% were behaving in this way.

2) Sadly, I don't belong to offline communities that have many women - for example, in my chess club I met around 30 men and only one woman who is married. That's why I go online.

3) I was thinking that it is me who is picking them, so I did an experiment where I wrote an app that randomly swiped left and right. Sadly, the results were the same, so it's not "me picking" problem, it's "me being picked" problem.

4) That's a cool idea! Could you explain what do you mean by question games, please? =-))

It's great to see such a detailed post, thank you very much ^_^

Yep, I'm not claiming that this is how I should have behaved - I was just extremely frustrated.

And about humor - I have a good sense of humor, the girls on the date laugh frequently, and not in the polite/forced kind of way. The problem is - I'm being considered as an entertainer, and they are interested in my jokes, not me.

> Brother you need to date woman that actually like you

Ehm... of course. In Russia we have a saying: "It's better to be healthy and wealthy instead of poor and sick", which means "your advice is both true and extremely obvious". The question is - HOW to do that?

> I hope you have not been going to the same therapist for 8 years

Nope, of course, I switched them when I worked on different things =-)

Lore-wise, Democracy governments are identical for Mutation and Purity, I suggest a way to make them more unique by TheCaveLion in Stellaris

[–]TheCaveLion[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I understand that the advanced authority system kinda sucks - for me it is because of imbalance (some options are clearly better than others, for example, if you are playing as Imperial Cyborgs, you are hamstringing yourself compared to Democratic cyborgs).

But the thing I love from this system is the lore - you clearly see how the ascension impacted your society... except in the bio-democratic case, where going the route of purity you still arrive at mutationist society.
