oh it's relevant.
I just read your thread :
http://www.naturalfreedom.info/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2650
I'll write about your post here, because it's related
AND because I'll introspect.
I believe the girl asking about your girl (where and how she is) is the same as this one asking why don't I have one.
This is consciously a test on her part (see how you answer, your body language, my reasons), and at the same time either consciously or inconsiously showing interest to see if you take the bait
(What about yours ? / She's good but I think I have room for one more ... gotta open my HRD (human resource departement) )
" I'm glad to know you have a boyfriend. now I won't have to be Shy around you anymore"
And when you're tired of his whinny ass, call me
Whether I wrote my post, or I read yours, there's a thing that I want to expand on.
These are examples of the games women play (not even malisciously, or even consciously) ( as both your girls are interested, and mine is too).
They probably do this to bunch of guys (in your case more than mine as she's new in town), and just have to WAIT til one of the bunch make a move, so that they don't get rejected ...
So (I'm finishing the second 'listening' of Black Phillip Show), I notice that I become more and more (more likely I'm allowing myself to be what I really am : ) a 'bear' type (though I don't hunt like Patrice, I'm like a bear fisherman).
I like aggressive women (that's why I like 'my' girl, because she's honnest (to a point), don't take shit and all) -> Unlike my mother (very passive aggressive) whom when she pushes me (doesn't listen, say stupid things and when I correct her I'm the bad guy, ...), my tone increases a couple octaves and she's like why you're yelling, ... you're aggressive, can't you be calm blah blah (now I still correct her but remain cold so she can't feed off anything
thank you NF and introspection
)
If you know you're in control, then you have control...you have the capacity to influence decision. So even though the woman has the ultimate say so in pertinent matters, if you are in control, you can always influence her decisions to go in your favor.
So, once again, this gives them the illusion that they are in control, when really, YOU are actually in control.
We can't win (we can't but we could ... but we can't ... but we could... FOR every man has to open his eyes to the
natural order of things).
The only way to win is not to play by her rules (which are society's rules).
That's what annoys me in both our stories.
Because if I have to be completely honnest with myself, I would have to live alone (I will in less than a year), AND let people enter only if they are 'worthy' (not egomaniacal way, let me explain
If I had to be honnest with myself, I would be honnest with others.
That would mean :
- Front blast like the Kidd
2) The technique I used...I refer to it as "Front Blasting". Some guys try to do this, but it's hard when you're using a BB gun. Me? You ever play Marvel Vs. Capcom 2? You know that big ass Proton Cannon Iron Man/War Machine pulls out for their special? That nice, big, shiny hunk o' chrome? That's what I use....and I get my 50+ hit, "Marvelous!" combo out of it everytime I decide it's time to pull it out.
Examples of what I feel like saying but don't :
- Gosh stop trying to act like you're not interested and say what you gotta say woman.
- Tell me why would I be interested in someone who's only job in life is to wait for the perfect man to come, what do you have to offer ?
- ...
- Shut up mom, do you hear the bullshit you say all day long (
)
I consciously have to shut my opinion because if I really say what I feel, ...
I SHUT MYSELF, not them.
I'm afraid of the consequences ... well no.
I consider the consequences and weight pros and cons, but think I shouldn't, and should just say what I feel (as women do without impunity
)
This is calibration between being righteous / congruent, and being socially acceptable.
I focused more on the differences between me and other people so that I think I have nothing to say to them ?
Well the only thing I'm interested to talk is THAT (what we talk about here), and I never made it known that I am on this kind of forum (unlike zogler, props) (well to be fair I said to my sister I was reading Pimp and other Iceberg Slim books, and she reacted like 'what, pimp books ? well you read what you want', with a disproving tone ...(as pimps are OF COURSE beating women, the scum of the world ...
)).
If I could tell the similarities, it is male/female relationships and women only that interest everyone.
But I feel (as I don't have experience) that my opinion not only will be discredited, but I PREFER to show people, rather than tell them (so in a way me staying single DID rang a bell as my opinion (even though it can be misinterpreted as LSE, Shyness, Fear of women, Hatred maybe ...))
The point is I am 'afraid' to be completely honnest with people.
This is because I didn't completely believe in myself (YES, past tense).
I will write the list of things that I'm not honnest with and please comment on how you would manage that :
- My father has money problems (I lended him 1.500 € as my sis and bro, but still can't finish the month sometimes).
He spends money on FOOD primarily, probably 70 to 100 € a week for him alone (he doesn't eat THAT much, but he likes 'good' (read expensive) food, no restaurants mind you, but I don't even know)
He is a collectionner too (buys things on secondhand markets, CHEAP but TOO MUCH STUFF)
But he has things of value in his house (he has at least one painting whose value is up to 3000€ (looking on the internet), but don't want to sell it (I said I would do it, he was like "no I'll do it"), but he says that when he will die, we will inherit it and do what we want ...
)
Everybody says to him he has too much stuff, it's all junk, ... but does nothing (I said to him 3 years ago that I intended to have a home library, he went on to buy up to 5000 books easily (total money spent probably 1000 € in 2 1/2 years, when I said stop at after the first year (there was too much junk on the books) )
His house is kinda like that :
So yesterday he VERY INDIRECTLY asked me for money ("I have to work hard til the end of the month otherwise I wouldn't be able to pay the bill ...").
I made the decision (after the second time) to say no as he does not know how to keep money (or at least be on the positive side).
But at the same time I don't want to have to manage his finances for him.
If I were completely honnest, I would say this to him :
"You're 57, you're in the red, you're even borrowing money from your children for what ?
Books ? Stamps ? Paintings ?
What do you want to compensate for ?
These things don't care at all if you're struggling to finish the month.
Do something for yourself, stop counting on others."
Why I don't ?
He lives how he wants, I have no say over his life, I'll only say no if he asks me money. <- Many people tell me how I should live, and I don't like it, so I'm not going to say how others have to live.
So more likely, I would say something like :
Live your life how you want, but don't ask me for money coz you don't know how to manage it.
Also, maybe I didn't say no before this coz if his reaction were to be mad at me, it would mean he considered me mainly as a wallet, and I may not want to face that. Who knows ?
- Alore.
She's my type of girl, half french half portuguese, not model pretty but like her (with a prettier face imo)
She seems psychologically damaged (or particularly balanced to be able to handle this kind of things) LIKE ME
:
-She likes criminal profiling (like Level 26, Criminal Minds).
-She likes disturbing thrillers (like Piel que Habito).
-She likes horror movies (like Eden Lake).
-She likes dance movies, love movies too (well she's still a woman
)
This is relevant to honnesty, because I don't say what I feel BECAUSE as she lives with us, I may be afraid of consequences (whether she rejects me (0% chance), or she tries to use me if I make a move, or having to explain myself for an hour on how I think, why, ...).
But even though I would honestly say what I feel I give her no power, coz I can't help how I feel.
So the problem is that
she would think that she has some power over me, so she will act like she's on a pedestal.
That's why when I said she was 'perfect without makeup', she probably thought I was all up her ass but shy, so she tested me later with my mother (to see if I would back off, and see how I would react with other people present)
That's what pisses me off a bit (if it's true, I may ramble for no reason and she's one of the unicorns
), until I remember they don't do it malisciously, and that it's her only weapon (screening) ...
But again I only met three women that I FELT like it's on already (that they wouldn't give me shit, no test and all), whereas Alore I feel like she tests, like she's not sure of herself (because she dumped her bf, admitted to want to lose some weight (like 99% of women), admitted that she couldn't go out without wearing some makeup ...)
The thing that is different with her is that she teases me about this :
"I'll show you how to like shallow women like me"
"Every woman has to have a bit of shallowness, you'll see"
This just shows me she's not shallow, just a little insecure and pushes me to make the first move so she's not rejected ...
This is all 'gut feeling', and to expand on that, I start to see that even though I have a set personality (aggressive, honnest, straightforward
), I don't have a set behaviour (no ABCD as Wygant would say), I'm a responder, I treat people accordingly not on what they say or do, but on what my gut tells me (the feeling response I get when I see them, hear them).
I will finish by saying this :
I almost wanted to not publish this post (coz I still haven't said all that goes through my head yet), but the most important lesson is this :
TRUST YOUR GUT NOT YOUR MIND. (Has it been said before
)
Your gut reacts CONGRUENTLY to what you really are. (That's why if I followed my gut I would be completely honnest, but for now there's still a little editing), and is IMMEDIATE REACTOR, no over-thinking (like this post : 2 hours to translate,write what my gut KNOWS instantly).
Thus endeth this long-ass post.
Long live bear fishing.
