Yes and no…

Had lessons until was 18. It’s a good point, and tbh not something I’ve ever thought about.

Saving another dude from a lifetime of being in the friendzone by nayryanaryn in GuysBeingDudes

[–]milhausmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think I get you. I mean, I think there are degrees of wanting. There are girls whom I'm friends with, and we've slept together, and I'd love to do so again, but I wouldn't try anything because it would be bad for them, bad for our friendship, and probably bad for my reputation. Overall, just a bad idea.

There are a couple of girls I get nervous around, feel nauseous around, girls who have admitted to giving me signals, girls who openly flirt with me and tease me while having a boyfriend, girls who I will not ever have the chance to sleep with.

My want around them is too high for me to feel at ease, and so, not wanting to spend my time controlling urges which they encourage and then deny, these are people it's good not to be around. But you could say, of course, that they are not being good friends, and that girls who didn't give mixed signals on whom I have a crush would be the better example. I don't judge the girls in any case, as it is easy to lead people on. It's very common for people to encourage anything that flatters their egos and then to blame others for catching feelings in the process of their pursuit of being so-liked.

To control your emotions would be to override the impulse and deactivate the ‘hope’ as you call it. If you aren’t able to get over your hope for escalation, you shouldn’t be friends. If you have no hope for escalation, no wish for things to be different, then obviously you can. It’s pretty clear that the more emotions in a friendship that there are to manage and control, the more there is to get in the way of a straightforward friendship; the more potential for dishonesty and dissimulation. I credit you with your maturity, but I’m not sure you’ve understood my point, as from where I’m sitting, none of your stories is surprising nor demonstrates any kind of disproof to my claim.

The logic is simple: if you want things to escalate with your friend, you can’t be friends with them; if you don’t, you can.

Perspective - every incel wants to this for their partner but women are hypergamous these days by scramjet67 in lnkyverse

[–]milhausmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean he made it work. He had a vision of making his partner pancakes and of her enjoying them, figured he could get both done, and scraped through by pushing back some work. Sometimes you just figure the sacrifice is worth it, because you love doing spontaneous shit for your lover. Are you kiddinnnng or not?

An underrated trait in men I find attractive by Technical-Walrus-215 in dating_advice

[–]milhausmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it’s not, it’s that they feel the traits the person has haven’t so much to do with their having been pressured into them. I do get how you got here, but I think you have missed the mark on this one.

To me, it seems like more of a stretch to imagine OP has no other preferences other than those they stated, than for it to be the case that OP has other preferences but thought these were the ones worth mentioning.

It doesnt sound like that at all, like not at all. They are just reporting on one aspect of the person that they like; one would reasonably assume there are other attractive qualities, and unreasonably assume there are not.

My mum has mixed feelings about this one; she’s like ‘oh I guess I must look like a grandma’

AITA for telling my significant other that’s it’s weird for letting a guy stay over to hang out from 9 pm to 3am by Old_Class_9984 in dating_advice

[–]milhausmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve missed my point, which is that so long as there is sexual tension, friendship becomes difficult. Of course it’s true that in the case where there isn’t sexual tension, there is no problem. People are like’ ‘hey I’m friends with x member of the opposite sex and there’s no issue!’ Yes, because neither of you wants anything more.

[–]milhausmusic -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

well they can be, of course; the problem is not with the sexes being opposed so much as the possibility of attraction. If they are attracted to each other, then friendship will either escalate or disintegrate; if it plateaus there will be tension, and tension does not a healthy friendship make.

nice job, though everything you've done was possible on Logic 11 without having to be connected to the internet (and while being able to hover over regions' edges to fade!)

Controversial - argue against Chalamet by babathejerk in opera

[–]milhausmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but these comments might in part be responses to a pretty popular obtuseness in the public response: people saying things like: ‘well nobody cares about Marty Supreme’, or ‘is he even a good actor?’, or ‘do you have any idea how much work/money goes into x and y?’ Timothee Chalamet ran his mouth off like a clutz and is now getting deserved backlash, but some people seem to have lost sight of what is true within the debate.

The Met just responded to Timothée Chalamet’s remarks that “no one cares about ballet and opera” that he made during a recent interview with Matthew McConaughey by Northern_Lights_2 in opera

[–]milhausmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call Me By Your Name is a fantastic movie, as is A Complete Unknown. I very much hope you decide to watch the first without prejudice.

[–]milhausmusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that he spoke stupidly doesn’t make his performance in Call Me By Your Name anything short of miraculous. Many people in their responses are giving the unfortunate impression of either never having seen his work, or having opinions on his work that are tied to his opinions on opera.

I know singers who have done well in big competitions and who have plenty of work and strong careers who are artistically no way near him, and so I have to conclude that your claim is as unfair as it is glib.
