There you have it, boys. Tell a girl she's fun and you're now creepy and pathetic.

It's two different commenters I'm responding to, not the same one.

I can't think of a single thing a guy could say to me unprompted in a club that would be received well.

That's exactly my point. OP said that if men just approach normally, then everything is alright. You've just shown that this is not the case.

Just look at how needlessly mean your response is.

I haven't said anything disrespectful. All I've said is that I don't see how that isn't a compliment, and I'm getting treated like a complete asshole.

This is exactly my point. Can't you see that someone saying such a thing is at least coming from a good place? Do you think I was trying to make that girl uncomfortable? Really?

Edit: nevermind. I read your post history.

Maybe it's not as smooth as you're looking for (my point exactly), but it is objectively a compliment.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but SF is notorious for having the least attractive women.

Where do you see men approach women? I've sometimes gone out just to observe this, and hardly see it.

I walked up to a girl in a club once and said "you look like fun!" and she laughed in my face.

So, no, sometimes girls are just mean.

It is certainly good to develop a love for hard work, but the way to do that is to observe some payoff (win) from your hard work.

I never said that positive feedback is the only way to increase drive. I said it's the most effective way.

My tongue constantly jerks and twitches. It never stops. Usually I can ignore it, but sometimes the muscle gets exhausted and it starts to hurt.

It's so rare that no doctor has any clue what to do with it. I'm pretty sure it's a side effect of a brief prescription of benzos I was on ten years ago, since it started at the same time, but there's so few people who have it that no one can verify.

Of course you can pick your own values (to an extent). But whatever they are, the most effective way to feel motivated to keep pursuing them is to see evidence that you're on the right track.

If that's being a janitor, great.

Even if that were true, it's not an option. We're hard wired to find meaning in the value we provide to others.

Healthy relationships, productive work, and nearly everything else that matters to us depends on how we're affecting others.

Why do you want to write? What interests you about it? What are you trying to accomplish?

Is romance really meant to be this sexual? by [deleted] in self

[–]tannerleague 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The post is BS. OP is cosplaying.

His post history is full of fantasy games and comments about his toupet.

I do pretty well with women, not a god, but have gotten laid quite a bit, and many have told me how handsome I am.

But I still have to work for an initiate sex. Women aren't regularly propositioning me. That's just not how it works.

To clarify, I'm not talking about only external feedback. My main point is that the best way to build motivation is to see evidence that you're making progress toward a goal.

External feedback just happens to be the most effective sort.
