threebyfate Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 NEVER fear loss. If you have needs not being met, you're losing nothing if it doesn't work out. People aren't prizes to win or lose.
homersheineken Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Your logic is kind of depressing alpha. So you are saying that each woman you ask out is the same as the next one. What if one out of 8 that rejected you is the one you liked the most? And 2 that said yes are kind of meh. Are they really all equal to you? Yes they are all equal to you. You don't know anything about them...

Or even hide them for a longer periods of time if you don't spend much time together (i.e. see each other 1-2x a week).
meerkat stew Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 "The only thing you ever need to know about women is this: girls mature faster than boys until they're about 14 or 15 years old, and then they stay that age the rest of their lives." This is funny, as Schopenhauer said the exact same thing in the 19th century in his probably tongue-in-cheek polemic "Of Women," so you have one of the founders of modern Continental philosophy and existentialism backing up your friend's dad. As far as the topic, I never got much dating advice, had to make up my own.

marlena Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Never let anyone BS you with the hot/cold treatment. If someone is really interested, you will know, not a doubt in your mind. He/she will be consistent and do everything possible to be with you. No excuses. Also, multi-dating is self-defeating. One at a time is my motto.

LovieDove24 Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 "As long as you are attracted to each other and have fun together, there is no need to think any further about a relationship, because this is what a relationship is" Hey I really like this one. Its helpful to me because my parents were very poor role models of how a relationship was supposed to be and so im constantly questioning whats "normal" in my relationship. Now that I found someone where its just easy this other piece I always heard really makes sense. "When you find the right one, you'll know." Maybe not right away, but you will see eventually what all your other relationships SHOULD have been. Ya just know.
JamesM Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Disagree with the multi-dating criticism. How is that working for you then? Has it helped you find your one true love?

Ah... I wondered whether someone would pick up on that. Bin there, dun that. Trust me, it's really not pretty.....! *Uses laugh smiley with no teeth.....*
homersheineken Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 How is that working for you then? Has it helped you find your one true love? It's working well for me. You don't even know what I'm trying to find...
JamesM Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 It's working well for me. You don't even know what I'm trying to find... Precisely. That is why I ask questions. What are you trying to find?
homersheineken Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Precisely. That is why I ask questions. What are you trying to find? Well, in your question you assumed I was only trying to find "the one true love" And that's not simply the only thing I"m looking for. I'm looking for other things too. If it ("the one true love") happens, great, but if not (esp since I've become more selective) then I'm not going to forsake enjoying people for it. It's basically a numbers game. I met my last love multi-dating, I don't see why it can't happen again.
Tnerforireyeh Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 I'm not a "one true love" kind of guy. I'm a "two dozen true loves" kind of guy I love loving lots of ladies.
