That's true.

No offense but...

....I experimented some of the "NT" advices lately (that I was resistant against and thought to be very lame) and they brought results far better than your common usual advices on this forum.

Not much of a success story yet, yea..... things "moved" at least, while with your advices and tips things stayed stagnant as a dead horse.

Its funny last week you were complaining about how much bad advice you were receiving from nt males and now you are praising them.

Anyhow I dont think that it has to do with the group but with the indivual you are speaking to. Every group has some really wise people willing to give you advice and its up to you to figure out who this people are and ask them for advice.

Fnord for example seems like a very intelligent male that has gone through a lot, Im sure he´d be able to give you awesome advice and Im sure there are pelnty of other members and you just have to look for them.

do you have a date now? if so, which advice did they give you that worked?

it's wonderful if you can get advice from elsewhere that is more helpful for you. feel free to offer it here for other people to use also.

I could use some advice from a NT or a Aspie. How did the advice work for you the face of boo?

i don't feel like to share the stories, but they are small things here and there yet bery obvious differences.
And no hyper, no dating yet but least there was reciprocity and contact.

depends what criteria you use to asses the worth of the advice (and since you have no solid results yet... well hmmm). most of the NT advice I heard from you was really good, as long as you just want to get laid and nothing more.

basically they all told you to change - sure, that might be good advice for most of us here who just want to get a date (no offense). if you're looking for someone who'd like you for you, it's pretty much the worst advice ever.

well, it's kind of a huge statement to make if you don't have examples to back it up. i don't think that people on WP give only one kind of advice - it has been all over the map, so i don't see how it would all be that different from what NTs would say (some of the posters on here are even NT).

you have started at least 2 threads putting down the advice that NTs had given you on FB and elsewhere (i recall also a thread that dissed the advice married women gave you IRL or something). so now that you have some success you are chalking it all up to the advice that NTs gave you (that you previously found useless)? :scratch:

Well, a smart programmer who is failing to make his program working for too long would throw everything and start again from scratch with a new perspective.

So I was just thinking recently:

'getting laid with nothing more' would be better than nothing at all, don't you agree? --> that's also a radical change in my thinking.

Maybe that's a pre-requisite for the 'more' anyways? 90% of the married/engaged guys I knew were used to fool around in any way possible.

if all things in previous 10 years failed for getting a person who like me for me, then the logical thing to do is some radical change in approaching things.

Mind you, I am not taking all their advices at face value and applying them, half of the advices I mentioned in previous threads were just the lamest, but I understood the spirit of those advice: some radical changes are needed. So I am experimenting them with some tweaking from my part.


Anyways, after thinking I think the title was ill-thought, it is unfair to compare advice of people who just know me online and from totally different cultures with people who actually know me closely enough. It's not surprising that an offline doctor would diagnose more accurately than an online doctor. So maybe the title would be more fair and correct to just call it "offline advice > online advice"

that's just common sense, people who know you in real life will always come up with better advice than a bunch of online bots.

;)

I, for one, salute your decision to try to get laid.

I agree actually. Geting dating advice from a bunch of angry virgins won't help.

People who are wired to be social give better advice on social matters than those who are severely socially impaired?
Strange...

"Angry Virgins" would be a nice iphone game title.
