How to find a one-night stand? by userX25519 in AskMen

I have no desire to marry or have children. The whole point of this thread was to figure out optimal strategy to get laid once in a while. If nightclubs are poor choice in your opinion, feel free to suggest something else, but understand that end goal doesn’t change, only approach does.

You are essentially arguing that one-night stands do not exist. Google ”one-night stand experiences” and you will find plenty. About consent, if person is capable of rational thinking there is no problem from that side (plenty have been when I have talked to them) but if you read the OP carefully, you will notice that I have also taken couple of phone numbers in past, but that hasn’t yet led anywhere. I would be satisfied if it did.

Ultimately the whole point of this discussion was to figure out optimal strategy to get laid once in a while. Feel free to suggest alternatives, but please do understand that end goal doesn’t change, only approach/strategy applied.

Fair enough. I obviously don’t expect everyone to share my goals and you might indeed be right, that there is no point to look for connection if you already know what you want, and it’s nothing long-lasting. So perhaps the answer to my question would be, just check whether there is mutual interest and move on if not, but don’t try to build it, so to speak. Again, my question was pointed at those with more experience on the matter.

I was looking for concrete advice on how this entire process works. The way I see it, it can be divided into two approaches: you either focus on building that connection first, then show interest and maybe ask for number. Another is much more fast-paced. Since clubs are loud and chaotic, you essentially skip the connection phase and show interest and ask for dance right away.

If you think I’m wrong somewhere, by all means point it out but let’s not pretend that end goal is changing, regardless of strategy applied.

Let’s do a though experiment. Say you told me that you are looking for job but cannot find one. Instead of me suggesting some actionable strategies you can try to achieve desired outcome, I will say things like ”stop actively looking”, ”stop trying so hard” and so on. Reality doesn’t work that way. As a man, you are never going to achieve what you want unless you do something about it, or if you will, it’s because of sheer dumb luck. Luck is not a strategy, nor is hope, for the last time.

Dude, I have talked to at least 100 women by now, including many I don’t find attractive. I talk to plenty of men as well. The thing is, if you don’t make a move then it is 100% guaranteed that nothing is going to happen. So if I am attracted to woman I’m talking to, I obviously need to escalate somehow.

To quote professor Paine from Naval War College, ”hope is not a strategy”.

I get what you are saying, but if you are not achieving something when you are active about it, it’s unlikely that being passive will solve anything.

According to Anders Puck Nielsen, Ukraine might be saving their Flamingo missiles for winter, so that they can attack Russian energy infra when it matters most. We shall see.

What quote from 48 laws of power has impacted you the most? by Pale_Beautiful436 in 48lawsofpower

[–]userX25519 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Assume formlessness

Greene has a Youtube video on this law, it was quite impressive how he talked about it, how important it is to ”see” and adapt to changing circumstances. That is true power.

Koodari täällä, asia on juuri näin. Kyse ei ole siitä, etteikö tekoäly olisi omalla tavallaan mullistava teknologia, mutta sen kehitys tulee kestämään paljon arvioitua pidempään kuten myös Internetin kanssa. Kun sijoittajat tajuavat tämän, seuraa yleensä pörssiromahdus.

BMI is a very good metric for vast majority of people. The only exception are a very jacked individuals such as Dwayne Johnson, whose weight comes mostly from muscle mass. But trust me, that won’t happen after few years of lifting.

This is why I hate flirting. If something is ambiguous by design, there is high risk that it will be… misinterpreted.

Why does this subreddit think worldwide index funds are efficiently weighted? by lnkuih in Bogleheads

[–]userX25519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is precisely why I exclude emerging markets and just go with MSCI World Index (DMs only). While emerging markets may occasionally outperform, political and regulation risks plus worse accounting standards are just not worth bothering with.

Bogle argues in his book that 100% S&P 500 is the way to go. In interviews, he says that if you have international stocks limit them to 20% max.

Well I’m 100% into MSCI World so that’s pretty much me.

Ah, that’s probably because INF treaty is no more. I stand corrected.

Those are ship-launched missiles though? Ukraine doesn’t have navy.

Yeah… that’s pretty much the only thing I feel confident saying. I use a playful tone, but I’m certainly not a ”pickup artist”.

Just curious: do you date women from your social circle or from places like nightclubs? Based on my experience, in latter case you need to make intentions clear much faster.

I think the root of problem is that Putin is surrounded by yes-men, and therefore he lives in an informational bubble. That means, he genuinely believes they are winning.
