    A tale of three philosophies

    Yes, I meant unbiased. Here's the dilemma. I have the desire to have women in my life. Ideally I would consider myself a humanist. As a Thelemite I theoretically value humans as divine beings. And I regard life as something to be celebrated. "Take your fill and Will of love." The flip...

    A tale of three philosophies

    Two philosophies going toe to toe in my head. Both are equally rational, level headed, convincing, and sportsmanlike. A third philosophy listens impartially. He makes comments and points out strengths and weaknesses of each side, but remains biased. The first two reach an impasse. Neither...

    Yeah, I know. Not a chance in hell. Gotta try though. Anyone here in Salk Lake?

    So i have this problem

    Saving has to be a priority. Putting money into an emergency account should be the FIRST bill you pay. Get this into your head until it becomes automatic. Set up an automatic transfer every payday so it comes out before you pay your other bills. This is not pizza money, this is not "I want"...

    Rest

    Because of my work schedule, I only get about 6 hours of sleep a night on a good night, or 4 hours if I have things I need to do. They say you need a plenty of sleep to recover from a workout, that's just not possible for me. Is anyone else in a similar situation, and do you still make progress...

    Remember To Keep Things In Perspective

    For some reason this makes me think of Time by Pink Floyd.

    Token rejected?

    That's a good point. I assumed she had lost interest because I had poor game at some point. But I couldn't be sure what exactly I had done.

    Token rejected?

    We had a tentative date set for today actually. This was the "chit-chat that followed. It was this exchange that prompted me not to bother following up on specific plans.

    My game plan

    The way I see it. Apologizing places myself as the submissive and her as the dominant. This can only help if this role reversal can be played to your advantage with a girl who is already thoroughly gamed. I'm not in a position at this point of my journey to allow that kind of role reversal.

    Token rejected?

    I'll start by saying this particular ship had sailed as far as I'm concerned. But it got me thinking about more general strategies for when this will come up again. Friend zoned. I always thought I knew it when I saw it. But in practice, any time I hear the word "friend" I immediately assume...

    Spinning plates

    Well the ****ing and chucking is the primary idea. My financial situation isn't going anywhere. "Getting my **** together" is about as doable as telling someone with cancer to just be healthier. I can't change my financial situation. But I'm not going to stop living just cause I have problems

    Spinning plates

    I could try. But I am honest to a fault. It makes me paranoid. Honestly, living with my mom has been a problem, but it is far from my biggest one. My biggest problem is time. And being blown off hurts far more than it normally would because it's usually the only free time I will have for...

    My game plan

    I'm halfway through The Rational Male, which is one of the best books I've found on this subject. I have to consider myself a rAFC according to his definition. I hate it, but it's undeniable. Reading this book has been one of the most painful experiences for me because I thought I wanted...

    Spinning plates

    Definitely long term. Financially I'm in a downward spiral. I'm working on a few things to ease the pressure, but it will be awhile.

    Spinning plates

    Hello, I'm brand new to this site, but I have been reading Rollo's The Rational Male. I'm 31, divorced, and work two jobs to pay child support. I also live with my mom because of it, which is a whole other topic. My evenings off are Tuesday's and every other Friday. This makes it very...
