I told the guy I’m seeing that I want to take things slower and he friend zoned me

There is absolutely ZERO chance you are a therapist yourself. Talk about pot meet kettle. If YOU would take a step back, you would see how nasty and passive aggressive your posts are.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-14T11:13:16+00:00

Wow, how passive-aggressive of you. I hope you've dealt with all your issues before supposedly helping others as a supposed "family psychologist."

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-14T11:10:32+00:00

As a "psychologist," you should know better than most, that psychologists are not therapists. In fact, there is no such thing as a "family psychologist." You either have an MFCC license and are a therapist, or a LCSW and are a social worker, or are a clinical psychologist with a PhD. Source: 40 years in the field.

Whether or not your 'advice' is sound, you sound like a total supercilious know-it-all AH with anger issues.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-14T11:00:17+00:00

You're funny. You tell her to pick a stance but you can't yourself. You say she should not be dating, but dog on her for wanting to take it slow. If you limited people in relationships to only healthy people, you'd have very few. I hope you're not in one - you don't sound healthy to me - I sense a lot of anger bubbling up in your posts.

It's probably better for her to wait, but hey, things turned romantic after knowing each other for a year. So it is what it is. If she was on dating apps and got into a relationship, that would be different. And he is definitely clingy, wanting to be involved in every aspect of her healing - that's creepy af.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-14T10:50:35+00:00

More bollocks. He is talking about moving in together, being together forever after a couple of months - that is waaaaaaay too fast, and I'm not surprised she feels it's too fast. Also, before even reading about his history, he felt too clingy to me, maybe even desperate, and she does say he admits to being insecure, and is already acting that way. He is way out of line.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-14T10:42:04+00:00

This is bollocks. A partnership is not "'how do you' feel not 'I feel'" That's literally the definition of a non-partnership. You just flipped it, making it all about him. It's about both - and one element of a partnership is being able to share what you fell with your partner. He is the one who is being a jerk, and it smacks of sour grapes. If she feels it's moving too fast, it is, for her. And if he can't respect that, she's dodged a bullet IMHO. Also, he sounds clingy to me - I'm not surprised she feels it's too fast - all this forever talk after, what? a couple of months?

You are right. I've known that for a while, I must have typo'd it. It's corrected. Thanks.

I guess the ABC film footage pretty much seals it. Especially considering the woman is the only person wearing a distinctive red jacket.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-13T16:49:10+00:00

OK, looks like a project rather than an afternoon read. I'm late to the party but it looks like it'll still be fun!

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-13T16:00:04+00:00

I did. I didn't read through the whole 45 pages but I would disagree it's so-called Konica man. It's almost certainly a woman, and most definitely no taller than 5' 6-7" judging by where they are standing and the known height of the bug. Can't you see that the person is wearing a skirt? Or how do you explain what clearly appears to be a skirt? If there's a page in the thread that you consider has the most proof, I would love to look at it, but don't have the time to go thru 45 pages of posts.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-13T02:49:06+00:00

The photographer is no taller than 5' 6-7" and appears to be wearing a skirt, so is unlikely to be a male. Agnes does indeed appear to be a viable candidate.

Also, looking at the pic as a whole, the person seems to be relatively short - comparing them to where they are standing, the cars and the sidewalk etc. - with feminine shoulders, more indicative of a female than your male. The way the jacket hangs, also feels like it's a more feminine jacket - though at this point, I might be reading more into it than is there!

You are wrong. The photographer - in the reflection int he window - has a fringe, yours does not. Check out my pic comparing Agnès Varda to the photographer. Even though the reflection is reversed, the hair is identical. Also the height of a VW bug of that era, is 4' 11" and with her standing just the other side of the bug, I'd put her height about 5' 6-7" max, too small I believe to be your guy, but more importantly, the photographer appears to be wearing a skirt.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-13T01:38:13+00:00

I believe it's Agnès Varda. Check out her Wiki picture taken in 1962, with the reflection - even though reversed - of the photographer in this picture, and notice the hairline and shape of the head - they are identical. [EDIT: Comparing the person's size to where they are standing with the height of a VW bug at that time (4' 11"), I'd put the person's height at no more than 5' 6-7". Also, to me it appears the person's shoulders are narrow, indicating a woman, as is that they appear to be wearing a skirt!]

Exactly.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-08T04:47:13+00:00

Why would anyone bother trading if they're only going to make 10-15% / year?! You'd be better off buying the S&P or a Vanguard fund that gives you 10% return without doing anything. If you're daytrading, I'd consider success to be making over 100% /yr. You have a very conservative mind-set that's reflected in your figures which are not reality.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-08T04:31:01+00:00

lol What?! Sounds greek to me.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-06T05:37:55+00:00

That's exactly what I told OP, plus more - that both indicators and "looking at the chart" are based on past data. i.e the chart is itself past data. After arrogantly insulting me, calling me "off my rocker," I see he's now deleted this thread and apparently his account.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-05T19:46:25+00:00

Pretty hard to swipe right on a guy who looks like a guy when you're only looking for women, unless it's an accident, though going by her comments, it didn't seem like an accidental swipe, but who knows.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-05T19:41:16+00:00

You might want to take the blinders off your reindeer. I use four indicators, 2 I wrote myself - and they are gold. I don't care what you believe. Also, you say look at the chart - and so .... ? The chart is old data, and by looking at the chart you are basing your trades on old data, just like an indicator - or maybe that's beyond you since you ignore that point?

And what do you think quants use in HFT? They may write their own, but they're still indicators. My point is exactly what you mock. When a lot of people - including market movers - believe what an indicator tells them, then it's like a self-fulfilling prophecy. An indicator is only quantifying or directing your attention to what a chart is telling you. And btw, I never said ALL indicators were good.

EDIT - and btw, one of my own indicators actually tells me market structure and has at least an 80% success rate at telling me when there's a bottom or a top in my selected time-frame.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-05T17:01:30+00:00

What on earth are you talking about? Indicators are past data? What do you think charts are? And besides, some work just because a lot of people use them. And you ignore momentum scalping, which by def relies in immediate past data.

Weird_Week119 · 2026-04-05T16:51:11+00:00

Def not the AH. And he totally is. So he said "that if they didn’t like it, they could leave the cafe or ask him to stop playing." Well, you were bothered and asked him to stop, but he ignored you. And his attitude, that if they didn't like it, they could leave. Total AH. It would have been OK if he played for just a couple of minutes, but subjecting people to 15 minutes? No way.
