futuregopher Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 I haven't talked to a girl in a long time (ie a few months). Ever since the year started, I've been busy at work. But now that I'm taking a few months off to study for my CPA, all I do is study. I have zero interaction with the outside world let alone women. The only women I've talked to are cashiers and people of that sort. I don't even know where to start anymore. I know I should say "hi" but I'm scared I'll freeze up after that. I know I should be researching the internet on "how to talk to girls" but I end up doing something else. So this is what my second problem is - instead of researching on how to talk to women, I end up doing research on how to make more money through investing and trading equity. It's gotten to a point where I look at $1000 and say wow in 3-5 years, I could turn this into $3000+. But then I start thinking, wait, why should I only have $1k skin in the game? Why not $10k? Why not just try to retire by the age of 30 with this money? So this cycle of being addicted to thinking like that started a couple of months ago ever since I started investing. It's gotten to a point where in my opinion that I've turned so damn greedy that I've been trying to make enough money for a house downpayment in 4-5 years (I'm getting old, I'm 22). I spend a lot free time looking for the next best investing opportunity and the rewards I get make me want to do it even more. Instead of buying those nice shoes that I really want, I instead think "why not just invest the $150 and buy 4-5 pairs in 2 years with that principal?" Now I am realizing that if I keep living like this, no girl would ever want to be with a greedy person. If she wants a pair of $100 shoes, I'll probably wince and think about how nice that $500 would be in 4 years and she'll just get really pissed. There are probably girls out there that like men for only money but I really don't want to be associated with people like that. I'm getting really worried about my "addiction to money". Should I just seek help now or try to work it out and find someone that will understand my problem? thank you!!

yongyong Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 I hope you don't bring a coupon to a date. That looks really pathetic.....
phineas Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 I hope you don't bring a coupon to a date. That looks really pathetic..... I did that once when I realized I had someone who was just looking for a free meal. She was some restaurant owners play thing & when he dropped her she was looking for a replacement sugar daddy. So I brought a coupon for the lulz.
