Just stay away from humans huh? That'll sure solve neuroses.

The newest trend on wp is keep pointing that young straight guys totally suck.

Oh wait... that’s not a new trend at all.

Not only are these threads sexist, they're condescending and disrespectful.

I don't think the sardonic tone is adequately conveying anything. Why do I disagree with Corey? He's capitalizing on other people's problems & telling them to 'move on' (a dumb modern cliché) instead of making any efforts to get along with each other.

In essence, you might as well tell everyone to ghost each other.

Agreed. The modern dating culture is telling us to create real narrow "criteria" for potential partners and to move on quickly as soon as any kind of problem appears. Might work well for NTs that can get along with a huge majority of people, and thus can afford to be picky, but it doesn't work very well for NDs.

NDs will be better of with fewer (or none at all) requirements, and instead focusing on neurotype and compatibility. Once they have found somebody suitable, they should make a lot of effort to make it work & get along.

Compatibility first----neurotype a distant second.

Well said.

NT’s can afford to be picky? NT’s instinctively cast wide nets. There’s more time getting to know people 1on1 until you meet someone you click with. People in relationships aren’t picky before they reach that stage.

And that's all I'm even doing the first half of. Accommodating someone in the real world is nothing but trial & error, everyone is different, particularly those of the opposite gender. I barely even require human interaction, that's all the more reason to be patient with those who've done so for me.

If you're ever in Colorado I owe you lunch. Same deal if I'm in Beirut.

Haha :) Yeah, because when men are annoying it's because they're men. When women are annoying they're just rare exceptions in the female spectrum. And all behavior is obviously about gender, not emotions, logic, or personal history.

When people aren't annoying they're usually also not alive. If nothing about somebody annoys you, you probably weren't focusing on them in square one.

OP is being needy in that he requires us to support his conjecture. I'd rather pester those I love than totally ignore them like all these threads are suggesting.

1) Never text a woman after you've texted once[ e.g. "Hey I wrote earlier, didn't hear from you, just wondering what's going on?"]

2) Never insist a woman respond quickly or follow some stupid timeline[e.g "Hey I'd really like to hear from you quicker, it's been a few hours"]

3) Don't ask boring, lame questions like, "Hey, is everything ok? Your response was kind of unenthusiastic, is something wrong?"

4) Stop apologizing for every little thing you do. You should only apologize in rare cases in which you've done something truly awful.

5) Stop acting like your entire world revolves around whether a woman talks to you, replies to you, or says something to you. Yes, she can tell if you're resting on her every word like a pathetic puppy dog in need of reassurance.

6)Never show more interest in a woman than she shows in you. Especially in the dating stage before you guys are actually bf/gf slash going steady(as they used to say). If she does not reciprocate your interest. Stop communicating entirely. Stop checking your phone all the time. Try talking to other women instead. Drop her and move on.


Those are just a few tips. I never do any of this stuff, but I keep hearing that men are doing it all the time. STOP IT :!:


Are you implying that women don't do the same thing? :P

Let me tell you what's pathetic: telling us we're the creepy ones when there's a rapist nominated for the U.S Supreme Court.

Well look on the bright side. Bill Cosby got sentenced for what he was doing to women so maybe more people will start standing up to rapists who think they can get away with anything because they have money and power.

Either hold the real creepy jackasses accountable or stop trying to look cool by demeaning your neighbors.

Preferably both.

OP basically made an account on WP, talked down to people in another thread and then made this thread and hasn't posted since. That feels suspicious.
