if ppl are jaded as a result of having been hurt one too many times, then that’s all the more reason to be discerning of who you associate with. which was the point some of us were trying to make from the get go but we were labeled weird for saying that lol
ppl make fun of discerning ppl but don’t realize that discerning ppl are gonna be waaaaaay less jaded when they’re older than those who weren’t as discerning.
because they dodged way more bullets than ppl who weren’t as cautious.
ppl who were discerning are gonna be much less bitter, much less jaded , much less paranoid than those ppl who dived head first into questionable situations.
they say everything is a learning experience and that’s true to an extent.
but do you really need the type of learning experiences that are only gonna make you bitter, jaded ,and resentful?
This right here! 👏🏻 I observed this in high school and had this inculcated in my head after 24. Diving first and thinking after will do a number on your mindset and perception of things/people.

That is well put and valid points for pure decrement in bed partners and beyond.
I thrive on "vibe" when it comes to any relationships. I enjoy connecting with others, its not just about under the sheets. I'm by no means a player Casanova or anything else. Compared to now a days, Very low count for a man.
Slightly off topic but related to what you have said, have you slept with someone and they caught feelings quite strongly and they/you didn't handle it well...end up the bad guy in the situation?

yeah totally. i just feel like sometimes ppl will willingly dive into situations they know will hurt them or situations that they know won’t be so fruitful/productive in the long run and suffer emotional damage needlessly.
so that’s where the discernment needs to come into play. we’re only here on earth for a short period of time and we should experience beautiful things (including love). not mediocre things.
as for your question, i’ve actually never had that happen to me (i only been with two ppl so far lol ex wife and current spouse) but i can understand what you’re describing though.
can i ask you what made you “not handle it well”? did something not feel right about the girl? maybe you saw something that made you uncomfortable about her? or develop suspicions? (something she did)?
or were you not ready? did you yourself have some unresolved feelings from the past or something that made you hesitant?

“not handle it well” I was thinking of the past.
This is a big part of it👇
"we’re only here on earth for a short period of time and we should experience beautiful things (including love)"
.it's very much me. A hippieish philosophy.
Connection, intimacy, having fun with things. I can be very expressive.
This has gotten me in trouble....
In the past I had suffered from fOMO and said fuck it and dived in. It's caused confusion and hard feelings when those VERY FEW times Ive done that and they caught serious feelings. I was just enjoying things, you know love and laughter.
I don't like hurting people and never forgot.
They weren't the one and I knew that. Now I hold back until Im sure whats going on their end first.
Thankfully now, I'm very good at feeling people out and the kind of connection we have. I really miss being in a close relationship. It's not that I can't be alone, I've always been happier paired. Waiting sucks.

That’s one of the reasons why I don’t mingle even casually with people I don’t see long term with. I hate hurting people or when they have expectations of me that I never encouraged

in the first place.

Lol Can't blame someone for wanting to keep you or upgrade the relationship so to speak.

They value and want more.

It seems like The expectations part you mention, is closer to them making assumptions or not being able to handle the emotional side of it.

The former thats what the talk while seeing someone is all about, going to the next level.

The emotional side of it, not everyone can handle that in a relaxed manner. Thats the best part for me.

I would have been at home in the hippie era and a course ended up with a life partner at the end.

Again age range matters a fuck ton.
Me in my teens and early 20s had a huge ego, and would fuck anyone who could stroke it the right way. At the same time I had secret standards, so I would never truly love them or try and make it an actual relationship. Me now doesn't like people much, and accepts I was fucked up in the past. To the point I actually feel I don't deserve love or people in my life. Because of that I'd rather just be alone.
Also I'm not trying to be a prick, but most men with actual standards wouldn't date you, or anyone here for that matter. The second you tell them you are into astrology you would instantly look like a creepy woman into dumb shit. Not saying astrology is dumb or anything. That's just how most normal people outside the occult view it.
But isn't it great that people have weird interests? Otherwise life would be very boring. Also astrology is just innocent and silly, people date politicians, or sex cult leaders which is more unbelievable lol
click to expand

Those people don't have actual standards though. If so they wouldn't be dating sex cult leaders, or politicians. People with standards would date likewise people with standards, but the word itself is a bit suggestive though. Like if the persons standard was to be a corrupted greedy liar then I guess dating a politician would fit them perfectly.
click to expand



I don't think you mean people that are into astrology though. Because majority of women are into it lol. Successful rich beautiful women. You meant more like people who choose to spend time on forums like this maybe instead of doing something more useful with their time. Or at least posting on instagram lol.

i think we’ve all unintentionally hurt someone before at some point in our lives. i sure have.
but what’s important is that we learned from those past mistakes and we’re trying not to hurt anyone again. some people don’t even feel any remorse so you are so much better than those people and so much more self-aware which is great.
“I really miss being in a close relationship. It's not that I can't be alone, I've always been happier paired. Waiting sucks.”
that’s valid. people who are happier paired are meant to be in a loving relationship. anything less probably won’t cut it for you as in you’ll feel like something is missing. did you have a libra venus if i remember correctly? maybe someone who gives you that peaceful relaxing sunday afternoon vibes might be perfect for you lol
and yes waiting sucks. but keep putting yourself in situations where you can be seen by new people cuz your soulmate can’t find you if she doesn’t know you exist so it’s important to be seen by new people. also, imagine your ideal soulmate and ask yourself “where would she go? where would she most likely be? what sorta places/atmospheres?”and then go there. a person i know found her soulmate this way. 🙂

click to expand

Ya I know how to meet my type and likely places they will be. Which most of the time is thier home🤣

Catch them on outings with friends. They are the sensitive passionate types.

They are universally liked. Lol and taken as soon as they want to be.

They as in plural is true as well. I've met many myself, I doubt Im special with this. So people have many soulmates and there are different types, it's a matter of choicing to go all the way with a particular one.

Like I said before, I'm very good at feeling out people, it's almost like a cheat. I already know what Im looking for in a life partner. Waiting sucks but I am....and stay out of trouble.
click to expand



yeah i’ve once heard somewhere that we all have multiple soulmates? and that it’s just a matter of which ones we wanna come together with and learn life lessons with in this particular lifetime. i feel like it’s probably easier to come together with someone when you’re both on a similar level spiritually and going in a similar direction in life. i feel like we tend to find more things in common with ppl whose souls are looking for similar life lessons as the ones we’re looking for. i dunno i suck at explaining it but yeah lol anyway, it’s great that you know what you want! cuz knowing what you want is the first step in getting it!

I mean you shouldn't. I get extremest using religion as a way to pretend they can justify murder and destruction, but most religious people just want to live life with their morals and values while keeping people like you at at distance. Most religious people wouldn't want to kill you, or even try and convince you. They just want to live life based off their own standards. It's the news, media, and extremist that want to make you think otherwise. Trust me, I have a dark spirit. Every super religious person I've met never tried to convince me anything. Once they had to leave all they said was "It was nice meeting you, and if we ever cross paths again I'll enjoy having another conversation with you." Most religious people are super open to having convers with people outside their own religion.
click to expand

No, I strongly disagree. Most religious people are duplicitous and need the facade of religion to make people believe that they are good persons when in reality they aren’t and prone to doing shady things. I met my share of religious people and come from one. And no, I’m not getting my opinion from news and media. I observe religious people closely and use to be religious myself until I read up on my religion. In fact, most religious people have no clue what they are following as they don’t study their faith with critical thinking skills. They blindly follow a faith based on hearsay or what religious figures feed them.

i’ve seen one too many documentaries of priests molesting kids by telling them some bullshit like “this is god’s will” lol 😂 (like trying to convince the kids that god wants this for them)

god’s will my ass lol 😂 i guess it must also be “god’s will” then if the fathers of those kids ever decide to shove the priest off a high cliff and make it look like an accident too lol 😂 can’t blindly trust religious leaders lol

Here’s the thing though, all of them are mesmerized by the pries—-cult leader so the father and mom would not bat an eye lash if their kid gets molested. They all think it’s a privilege if the cult leader is even touching them. All religions are cults and you will see it if you actually read the text and the resulting behaviour in people.

I mean people into astrology are pretty much always into it. I was speaking on the 95% of the worlds population that think it's fake, and laugh when you bring it up. I truly believe most of not all people on this forum are into deep astrology. By deep astrology I mean knowing what a birth chart is. Do you ever speak with people outside the internet about astrology? It could be different in other countries too. In America however most people think you are either stupid or crazy the second you bring up astrology as an actual passion/ hobby.

Once you put it that way, you have a good point. I guess I try to give people the benefit of the doubt too much nowadays. I guess truth be told most of the worlds problems, and the most heinous acts every made by mankind can be related to a religion. Damn. I really want to take my mom to church on Sundays or something before she or I dies. All the negative stuff aside, I think spending one day out of the week in a church with good people, and good morals is actually good for a personas mental health. Like everything in life even that needs good balance, but I'm becoming more and more open to just being in a community based on good morals and values. God knows I need that now more then ever.

Going to church doesn’t make you a good person nor are attendees at churches or

places of worship moralistic or upstanding. I grew up in a religious household and place of worships are swarming with sanctimonious folks who usually have double lives. There’s a definite connection between religion and confused folks that live a double life.

Truly good people with a strong moral compass aka integrity are very rare and can be found anywhere (an atheist, a monotheist like myself, agnostic) but don’t confuse religion or following a faith = good morals. Not necessarily. In fact it’s sadly the opposite.

that’s crazy that some people can place that much trust in another mere mortal lol a priest is basically some random dude who has a MA or BA in philosophy/theology and completed some courses in the seminary, right? they’re by no means some direct messenger of god lol they’re just a mere mortal with flaws like the rest of us. there’s no valid reason to trust them wholeheartedly lol

i’ve seen a few documentaries on this subject but this one was the most notable one :

Men that have few to no options aren't that discerning. To them, it's like winning the lottery or their lucky day. It takes some of the sting off the fact that high quality women aren't choosing them. Some would rather buy into their ego illusion rather than put in the hard work and effort it takes to be a well rounded person that attracts someone amazing.


exactly. i never thought i’d hear another dude on here be bold enough to say this out loud.

ppl who don’t have many options are similar to ppl who don’t know where their next meal is coming from so they pounce on any kinda meal that presents themselves.

but the quality of the meal (i’m using meal as a metaphor for people) they’re getting aren’t that good for obvious reasons. but they don’t care because sleeping with a lot of people at least gives them that false illusion that they “got it going on”. but just take one look at the type of ppl they’re “scoring” with. i rest my case.

Men that have few to no options aren't that discerning. To them, it's like winning the lottery or their lucky day.

He shares half my chart and half my mom’s. Made me proud. 🥹 So far I haven’t met anyone who has half or full my chart and isn’t sensible. Hopefully it stays that way 😆 otherwise I’m going to lose faith in astrology.
