Lol that hit the nail on the head

I occasionally see friends on FB posting these whiney articles about how "unfair" and "misunderstood" life can be as an introvert. I worry that might become the next big victim movement. :\

Sounds like a Sea-Don't! :twss: (sigh) I have no friends.

I show up even when I haven't been invited. Sometimes I've even been warned not to show up. Therefore my reliability is over 100% and I am a better person than steve and obfuscator

Damn it's like the US, you don't even have to break the rule only talking about it gets you [bleep]ed over lol'd You can't blame them for covering their bases

Punchlines are swimming through my mind... :lol:

Sometimes I'd rather just cuddle with a girl than bang her. I'm wondering if that's what it's like to be an asexual? Feeling that way all the time instead of just occasionally? Though I usually only feel that way right after sex when my sex drive has been depleted lol

http://www.gameskinny.com/2ryxy/man-arrested-for-hacking-league-of-legends-assisting-ddos-attacks Old news, but amusing how that guy completely fulfills the negative stereotype of a hacker >_> Lives with mom? Check. Has Aspergers? Check. Has a neck beard? Check. Out of shape? Check.

That's exactly what I was wondering. I think you'll find that just like non-ace people think about and watch a wide variety of things while they masturbate, so do asexuals. I don't really have a better answer than that, I'm not much into the habit of asking about other people's masturbation habits, because that's gross as [bleep]. That seems like a paradox lol

Wonder if they'll add this update to OSRS...

That's exactly what I was wondering.

So does that mean you guys just have like zero sex drive? You never masturbate or anything?

They lack exciting lives and have nothing better to do with their free time. Or they're chemically imbalanced. Can't really think of any other reason why someone else would waste their time on such an activity lol

I was thinking the same thing sorta. My friend whom I've mentioned in the past is engaged now to a girl that's below his previous "standards." She's anorexic, super dramatic/[bleep]y, etc. Their relationship is notorious for being super unhealthy from the get-go. He always would complain to me about the relationship in the past, and I obviously told him to just end it... but he didn't because he was too afraid to hurt her feelings and he felt like a dick. So now he's engaged instead >_> So now the question is: has he been w/ her long enough that he's actually grown to "love" her? Or is he just too afraid to break up with her and would rather get married instead? Probably a little bit of both, but we'll never know :P

Your life will be much easier as a woman if you start putting a very high priority on looking as attractive as possible. It's not fair and it's not right, but that's how the world works.

I'm not going to try and "excuse" his and his friends' behavior/comments, however I will say that that's just how men can be at times. In other words, "boys will be boys." While he may have genuinely felt that way in the past when he had those conversations, he's probably still with you because he cares about you and he probably regrets what he said in the past. Anyways, if I were you, I just wouldn't hang out with his friends at all simply because you're "incompatible" with them. I have plenty of mutual friends whom I don't get along with. So whenever my friends invite me to go hang out with those guys, I politely decline the invitation because I know that accepting their invitation would make me unhappy. Just keep it at that, though. Don't try to turn him against his friends or talk shit about his friends to him or anything like that. That's a horrible thing to do, even if they are horrible people. Just bite your tongue and do your best to minimize time spent with people who you don't like. :)

Lol I don't think you understood my joke :P I was suggesting that you went to a Ku Klux Klan event

Lol

My basic point is that people get into relationships (of any type) to satisfy certain needs. And my argument is that for the vast majority of people, a typical monogamous relationship is a poor way to try and satisfy those needs. Additionally, most aspects of monogamy are inferior to polyamory. Monogamy "works" for people with low sex drives and people who are drama-prone and "enjoy" frequent emotional ups and downs (as opposed to consistent happiness).

I'm not going to give you a very detailed response, as you've made it clear in the past that you have no interest in discussing things rationally. As always, this response is mostly for the lurkers and other posters in this thread :P Of course not. No one choosing to be monogamous can understand statistics. We're just all mindless drones, aren't we? No. Everybody is unique with their own freedom to make their own decisions. With that said, however, we live in a cause and effect universe. Certain actions and behaviors have certain consequences. These trends can be generalized towards the vast majority of human beings. Sure, there are exceptions to the rules, but if you're going to pretend that you're the exception to every rule out there, you're going to be unpleasantly surprised when things don't turn out how you'd expect. In other words, if you see that there's 50% divorce rate, and you choose to enter your relationship the same way every other human being does, then you're probably going to end up just like those guys. Please tell me you're not being serious. >_> I shouldn't have to tell you that correlation does not imply causation. Additionally, you're talking about polygamy. I don't do that and I don't recommend it to anyone; there's too much drama involved and it's unfair to women. I practice polyamory. Polygamy: Man allowed to be with as many women as he wants; all of "his" women are only allowed to be with him. Polyamory: Man allowed to be with as many women as he wants; all of the women he's dating are allowed to be with as many men as they want. Like I said, I'm not going to get very detailed here. If you want a more detailed explanation you're welcome to read through this, this, and any other relevant topics on that blog. Unlike monogamy, there exists a consistently proven system for polyamory which offers consistent long-term happiness to basically anybody who chooses to use it.

I don't think you understand how statistics work >_>

The sex frequency of single people vs people in relationships/marriages is a misleading statistic. The average single person can't get laid unless they're in a relationship. And then once the relationship has dragged on for a few years or so, they'll probably only be having sex 1-2 times per month. Compare this to the non-average single person who has learned how to date and get laid, who can easily get laid practically whenever he wants, without getting into a relationship. Why else do you think men are so excited to get monogamous with a girl after only sleeping with her once or twice (or sometimes never)? It's because they know that if they don't lock her down, they're going to have to wait around until they "get lucky" again and find another girl willing to have sex with them.

Read some of the comments on the article. All of the comments which questioned the author's rationale were downvoted into oblivion lol. Dat groupthink

http://www.cracked.com/quick-fixes/robin-williams-why-funny-people-kill-themselves/ This article. Pseudo science and pop psychology at its finest. A quote from it: I guess most of my friends and I are just mystical creatures that he can't begin to understand. :roll:
