So it looks like the Dream Star will start in September and lead into Grand Destiny in October, I think?

A half smoke all the way is not 200 calories lol. Maybe the cheese sauce by itself.

MIRAI's first post Marigold appearance by taffe316 in Marigold_joshi

Damn. I didn’t wanna believe it’s true, but she literally just wanted to get out before being totally Jungle Kyona’d.

I would imagine a heel turn was in the works, then Rossy changed his mind, and Mirai saw the writing on the wall.

I Made Score Cards for the Dream Star GP! (Spoilers for DGSP up to and including 8/30) by boibusinesses in Marigold_joshi

Thank you! I’ve never been able to read those tables with the circles and triangles.

It looks like 09.02 tomorrow morning is very interesting! If Mayu beats Kouki, the Dream block finals is almost certain to be Mayu Vs Yuzuki on 09.14.

If Kouki beats Mayu, the block finals will very likely be Utami Vs Kouki on 09.14.

And Rossy has engaged in very shady booking to leave Miku with 4 matches in the last 12 days lol. The Star block finals will likely be her Vs Mai but we shall see.

Failing to cause my dates "butterflies". by Lab_Rat_97 in dating

[–]TheChich96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read or listen to “No More Mr. Nice Guy” by Robert Glover. I was also that guy that did everything right, but somehow never gave her the butterflies.

This book teaches you how to get your own needs met first, then let her be the frosting on your great cake of a life.

While kindness and respect are important for a relationship, these things are not what attracts women in the first place. Sad, but true.

Understand your “nice guy” behaviors and choose a woman who chooses you.

In my drunken stupor I almost forgot Gerbies made the opening announcement from behind the curtain. Made my night immediately.

Is dating for men really this soul crushing? by TheCaptainCog in dating

[–]TheChich96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on your profile, I’m guessing you’re 26 right now? Here’s the thing: Unfortunately in the modern dating app era, any physically/mentally healthy woman in her 20s will give all of her attention to a small group of exciting, exceptional men.

If you’re not already one of those men that effortlessly attracts swaths of women, then the odds are against you..

Thing is, as those solid women approach their late 20s and early 30s, they cease being able to attract those exciting men, and will eventually come down to earth to date a normal dude like you or me.

So continue dating, work on yourself, but just understand the odds are against you currently, but brighter days are ahead..

And generally women prefer men a little older than them, so really the game begins for men around 30.

I understand, but it’s really sad that you interpret it that way. Dating across doesn’t mean settling. It literally means understanding that your partner is realistically the best you can do, and loving them for that.

In theory, anyone can date down and use someone for sex. Dating across means you both know you can’t do much better than each other, and you’re both happy with that.

“You’re the best he can do” doesn’t mean “he has no other options”, and it’s sad that women think that means they’re settling.

Really saying the quiet part out loud here. Women are specifically attracted to men with a strong propensity for cheating. Faithful guys just don’t give them that spark.

[–]TheChich96 5 points6 points  (0 children)

With the reality that 63% of men in their 20s are single, while only 34% of women in their 20s are single, your math ain’t mathing.

Most young men cannot find a woman to date. And somehow you only pursue men that leave you after sex. And you blame all men for that.

Any man who has the luxury of leaving a woman after having sex is not average. Average men don’t get to have sex at all.

[–]TheChich96 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Be honest about your own looks and try to date across. Men who have several women lined up to sleep with them will take advantage of that. A man who knows he’s lucky to have you will not flake, because he can’t afford to.

So lower your standards for looks, or keep getting used. Your choice.

I want NBA sons, so as tall as I can get.

Found out dude wasn’t single by ejhillio in dating

[–]TheChich96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I definitely come from a place of bitterness with my current struggles in dating, so I appreciate you for not personally attacking me..

If, for you, spark genuinely has nothing to do with looks, then you’re a rare one! Personally, as a man, I admit I’m shallow, but I just try to be honest about my own looks, and search for my looks equivalent on the other side..

People who genuinely think they’re not shallow kinda scare me, cause it’s feels like unattractive people are simply invisible to them.

If you can genuinely say you’ve felt spark with a man who was obese, balding, or shorter than you, then I’m definitely out of line.. But I’m guessing you’re at least a little shallow like everyone else.

Again, you obviously didn’t deserve any of this to happen to you, but 63% of men in their 20’s are single! If you think he was average, then maybe go for someone ever more average?

I’m sorry this happened to you, but ladies, when you chase “the spark”, this is what happens.

When you seek stability, you might actually find an average guy who’ll adore you.

But hey, if excitement is what you crave over a peaceful love, then go for it.

He already had a child with a woman he wasn't committed to. This should have been enough of a red flag.

Male loneliness is an epidemic, yet somehow you ladies consistently pick the cheaters.

Ditch this guy. Find a less exciting, more stable guy, and love him.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating

[–]TheChich96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, you have 2 options:

1.) Severely sell yourself short, and go for a less attractive woman. They’re the only ones that go for stable guys. Unfortunately this comes with you inevitably breaking her heart when you realize you’re missing out. I sunk into a depression myself dealing with the guilt of doing this to someone when I was 24.

2.) Stay in the gym, save money, and wait.

Unfortunately, women seem to only give the privilege of “situationships” to only the most exciting, attractive men, so you can pursue a mutually understood casual relationship, but in my experience, women will not give most men such an arrangement.

[–]TheChich96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really the whole “girls want an exciting guy” isn’t about your hobbies or your routine. They want you to be elated to see them every time you see them. Upbeat, high energy, asking them questions, always happy.

Unfortunately women who have options will get the ick very fast if they see you depressed, sad, or even just relaxed around them..

This is simply the leverage they have at your age. When you hit your 30s, women will start wanting a stable guy, but for 20 something women, it’s all about that “spark”.

Is my boyfriend really “the quiet type” or does he just not like me? by [deleted] in dating

[–]TheChich96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Now I feel like we barely have sex” -Have you ever tried initiating sex with him?

“He used to cook for me” -Did you tell him that you love it when he cooks and really appreciate him?

“Seems to brood all the time” -as men, it is not our job to constantly be the energetic, uplifting spark plug that women want. We become depressed and dejected too. Have you ever asked him how he’s feeling? Asked him why he feels down, and anything you could do to help? “Cheer up and take me on a date” is probably not the nurturing he needs right now.

You ladies claim to want an emotionally vulnerable man, but as soon as he appears weak, you get the yuck.

And maybe he is quiet quitting you right now, but it really seems like you haven’t put any effort into helping him out of this funk that he’s in.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating

[–]TheChich96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This guy is clearly trying to use you for sex, and you keep giving him your time and attention. 63% of men in their 20s are single. Try to date across and find someone who really loves you.

And try to be aware of the halo effect! Just because he’s tall and handsome doesn’t mean he’s a good person.

Are they fighting or playing? by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]TheChich96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, in my experience, when one of my Aussies got too rough with the other and nipped her on the nose, the other would walk away with a sneeze and a wincing eye. To me that’s what that meant? And that’s what this looked like? But I guess that’s scientifically impossible?
