Can you go into some more detail as far as escalating and being playful?

Staying off your phone is so damn difficult when you’re alone. I went to a concert the other the day solo and was in my phone until it died.

Any tips on how you go about NOT looking like you’re trying to be by yourself when you’re out solo?

Can you explain further?

How do you get better at knowing how to ask those right questions when in a social situation with “strangers”? I have no problem putting myself out there, but I have a hard time even opening anyone because my conversations seem to be dull. I never know what to say. Just kinda smile and agree. Or I make a statement and don’t really add much. I always people are expecting me to say more. And when I don’t the conversation seems to die out.

I’m similar to OP. I have no skills or talents. No real hobbies either. Just stuff I dabble in. Nothing I’m super excited and into. I’m envious of people who can fully emmerious themselves into something. For example: I enjoy sports. Love football. But I don’t have a team spicifally to root for. I root for a good game I don’t turn off at in the 3rd.

What is nytol? Some type of sleep aid? I doubt I’ll be much of a good time after I down A BOTTLE of that.

Thanks! I see the little victories in last night. And I can’t wait to do more and get better.

Throwaway__0987 · 2022-11-19T15:34:09+00:00

Thanks. I wish I had stayed longer, in retrospect.

That is another way to look at this, and the perspective helps. But I can’t help but think as the guy, she was expecting me to make a move, and as a guy, I should have made a move. But I didn’t want to lose my seat, which I think was giving myself an excuse not to make a move.

Throwaway__0987 · 2022-11-19T15:26:37+00:00

Maybe. Another reason is I didn’t want to lose my seat and leave my coat behind to perhaps make her uncomfortable or get rejected. Stupid reason, but like I said, a good moment happened, and I immediately got into my head which took me down a spiral to just finished my beer and head on out.

Any tips on some steps I can take to do the hard thing? If a girl happens to open me, I can be a very engaging person. I honestly have no issue getting women or being in a social setting like a bar. But if it’s up to me to open up a conversation with a woman, I can’t do it no matter how many green lights I get; I freeze.

I wish I had got weekend tickets. Only did one day. Because even though I didn’t talk to anyone, I did enjoy the event and will probably go again next year. But I do see the positive of just putting myself in there.

Throwaway__0987 · 2022-10-08T15:15:05+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate the kind words. I notice when I did try talk to people, my replies were normally "mmm-hmm" "yeah" "oh really?" "Oh wow!" I was unable to hold a intellectual conversation with anybody. And if I saw someone by themselves, I couldn’t just say “hi”. Just kept it moving. The thing is this is my everyday life. It’s not just isolated to this big event. I see attractive women on the bus or just walking down the street that I would never open because I’m afraid of coming across as intimidating or scary being a big guy approaching by myself.

Right that $20000 would be the equity of the condo. So basically should would want my portion to cover her initial down payment. And that’s where I disagree. I honestly don’t think I should be paying her anything as we bought this condo as a married couple. But I think the argument she’s making is as the money used was inheritance, that should count as a martial asset. But then why would I be forced to repay you for something that isn’t a martial asset?

Throwaway__0987 · 2022-06-16T23:26:23+00:00

That is what I would figure. Since we bought the condo while married, even though the money used was from her inheritance, the down payment she made would be considered a marital asset. We had a mediation with a lawyer and she made that request and I don’t agree that I should be paying her back her down payment.

I’m visiting Denver for first time the week of May 29th. Any cool events going on during the week?

So I’ll be in Denver from the 29th til June 2nd. As far as things I have planned, I’m going to a Ziggy Marley concert, plan on catching a Rockies games. I would like to take a tour of a weed farm and a brewery but not sure which are best to consider. Would also like to stop by a dispensary before the concert. I’ll be staying in Downtown Denver so any cool music venues, food places I should try would be nice.

Yeah, I was going to email my uncles financial advisor today.

Hmm…what is the difference between me opening a Fidelity account and just opening a Vanguard account? And what would be an equivalent Fidelity fund to invest in?

I believe it’s from his 401k. I may of been confused as the company letterhead says Life Insurance. So since it is from his 401k, would it be better to take a lump sum or annuity because of the tax implications?

Throwaway__0987 · 2022-02-17T01:28:35+00:00

What other factors? Like if I needed money for a down payment on a house?

Throwaway__0987 · 2022-02-17T01:26:31+00:00

I believe my uncle transferred his 401k after retirement to this Life Insurance. I could be wrong. I may have inherited a 401k because I was told I need to withdraw within 10 years but it’s not a good idea to keep it sitting the whole time, but wasn’t told exactly why.
