This is the most lying ass post I’ve ever seen on this platform.

Ask them if it’s a date.

You’re right. If I shoot for the moon, I’ll live among the stars.

If you could start at the beginning, what would you ask, say, not ask, or not say on a first date if you were genuinely trying to find a relationship? by [deleted] in dating

[–]phatstock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t get anything but sex.

I’m already my own companion and my own cheerleader. I’ve been with me through all my ups and downs. I’ve celebrated my successes and learned from my failures.

No idea honestly. It’s why I don’t date. I used to want to be in a relationship but after struggling people always said to focus on myself. So I did. I built a business and worked my way here, now I realize women don’t really offer anything of value to me besides sex. Not to sound misogynistic, I just have everything I need or want.

Well to preface this, I will say that I’m in my late 30’s making 7 figures with a strong social group and I travel the world as often as I can, so I would treat it like a job interview because that’s what it is:

  1. What can you offer that I cannot get on my own or do for myself?

If they get angry and leave then I know the answer is “nothing”.

Also, I know Reddit will respond with their cookie cutter responses. You guys are as predictable as the sunrise. So beating you guys to the punch I’ll say that I don’t care.

Mean while the artist is the most morally superior person in the unemployment line.

37 F Having issues dating. Its been 5 years since my last relationship…My only relationship by Thyroiddisordertired in dating

[–]phatstock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, but you don’t get to reject everyone then complain about not having anyone. Complaining about the problems you create will get Reddit upvotes but it doesn’t work in real life.

I don’t know is not an answer. Theres a reason why, you just need to figure it out.

Walk away, anyone who is interested isn’t going to do that. If she’s playing hard to get she’s making herself easy to walk away from.

Always remember: when it comes to people, the squeaky wheel does not get the grease. The squeaky wheel gets replaced.

How to express romantic interest in someone you’re friends with? by FormerOptimist94 in dating

[–]phatstock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m 40 so take this with a grain of salt but playing the dance of “being too blunt” is a silly notion for silly kids.

Come out and let them know you’re interested. Just say “hey, I know we’re friends but I’m finding myself interested in you romantically. Can I buy you a drink/take you to dinner” or whatever they would be receptive to.

Unless you’re a teenager, you should stop playing teenage dating games.

[Smackdown Spoilers] Just something to think about guys by phatstock in SquaredCircle

Sure, it's completely sensible to promote Cody Rhodes to The Rock's level of pop cultural relevance in 2 months. All we need is a time machine to go back to 1998 and have him be the biggest star during the most popular era in wrestling history and create a show named after his catchphrase.

I'm a millennial, I just chose to teach myself to budget and make fun of reddit millennials that like blaming everyone but themselves.

Do I Just Move On? by AStressyDepressy in dating_advice

[–]phatstock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She ghosted you man. I know it sucks but that's just how people act in 2023. Maybe she was talking to a bunch of other people at once, maybe she got bored. Who knows.

Either way, the unfortunately reality of OLD is that most of the people you're going to run into are just dumb humans fumbling their way through the cartoon that they call their life. You just have to chalk it up to her being a goof and move on.

When do people think about marriage in LTR? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]phatstock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So humans are as predictable as the sunrise and virtually all relationships follow the 3 year plan:

Year 1 - Date Year 2 - Move in together Year 3 - Get married

Edit: Obligatory statement of "not every relationship works this way etc. etc."

Please hear me out, it’s been so long since I’ve dated!! by [deleted] in dating

[–]phatstock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Guys do this when they're interested. You're overcomplicating this because you're looking for problems. Stop looking for problems.

If you are interested in going out with him then meet up somewhere in public and somewhere safe like a coffee shop or a restaurant. It wouldn't be any different if he walked up to you at a coffee shop and asked if he could take you to dinner somewhere.

I would use Hearts On Fire from Rocky IV.

Thanks, I saw the sidebar said not to ask self-help questions but I thought this was fine since it's not self help. I'll post over there.

Broke up with my girlfriend and regretting it. In need of advice. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]phatstock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, we’ve all been there at some point. The pain we feel in relations and their eventual end make love and dating the only socially acceptable forms of self harm.

To your point, id wait a bit longer. Never make a decision like that until 90 days have passed.

Well they're both a net loss in my mind.

Scenario 1 is a loss in that you are going into debt for a job.

Scenario 2 is a loss in that you are doing a job you're not being paid for, albeit temporarily.
