To understand why they got out with bad boys is because its exciting for them, or thrilling.
that's a simple truth.

it's a parasitic relationships
The bad boys are doing their thing and good girls latch on for the ride and jump out when they had their fix.
They may continue doing this until they mature and actually looking for a real partner.

Yeah it's hard for good guys, but be exciting, move across the country do something crazy.
Reinvent your self.
Be young

compete with the bad boys.
even they will mature at some point or just wash up

Good humor has truth ingrained inside it.

The cure of course, is to have an interesting life.

something AG does not want to hear of course

Did find the "no, stalkers have balls" really damn funny. When one is doing your own thing, this stuff does not happen.

Once again, AG won't listen

Psst, the difference is, being genuine and being about one's own business, and forever bringing whatever favor/effort it is up

I have -0- problem doing favors, i never bring them up. A good test is if it means a lot to you, and little to them

I've said many times, you "are" me when i was your age

Which is why when i see the path you are taking, i shall warn you against it

I've learned a lot, from both sides of the coin..would i buy a woman a drink?

Yep, if she bought me one first

Would i tip my cap and say "my lady"?

Yep, if she was otherwise engaged to a man or woman (things are like that now)

Would i read poetry to a woman?

Maybe, if she liked it, we'd trade verses

Would i give a shot and half to a Nana in a nursing home?

Damn right, another set of eyes on mom is always worth the risk.

etc, there is a fine line lil one, b/t suppilcating and being interesting.

None of which requires very much $$ at all.

The only way i can clumsily put it, is, women have a radar for good men v nice guys. A good man will do those things, a nice guy will do them and then wait like a lil puppy.

Women have a sense for these things

Here is a question for you AG, that woman you want to make yours, would you go to her funeral?

Heaven forbid one is completely understood, which is kinda the whole "interesting" point

And in answer to your question..yep, heard, 3-4 times in my life

and u r missing the point, beautiful women have many many suitors, ones i've dropped hands for

IE, not to be crude, I got into several fights over, i loved them very deeply, knew it would not work..they knew it, i knew it

If i showed at their funeral, they knew what would happen, so they always asked..would i be there?

I'm always there, always

Hmmm...that's something to chew on....

I guess....if someone is mysterious/reticent, that can be interesting, but I don't find obtuseness interesting. Like, you won't find me reading super cryptic poetry in my spare time.

I like when people hit the nail right on the head, hard, rather than just insinuating and leaving their meaning up in the air.

A long time ago, I was reading this cookbook and noticing that I felt "cared for" because the author was so meticulous about recording every detail of the process, and her commentary on the flavors was spot-on. That's when I started equating love and clarity. Speaking to be understood, in depth, can be like a labor of love.

Which goes along with this saying:

I don't mean that in a romantic sense, more like a universal love sense. And that reminds me of what another Transcendentalist said:

"The corruption of man is followed by the corruption of language." -R.W. Emerson

^ I wonder if that's a chicken or egg puzzle. Regardless, broken communication and loose morals do seem to have a direct correlation...and in the single life, ambiguity can almost cruel, as AG was saying. I agree with that, though there is also a place for subtlety.

Well, as Emerson also mentions, the real individual can keep his own opinion in the face of the crowd with perfect serenity

ETA: Maybe you thought I was quoting the Radically Honest people when I said that "Christianity is confusion"?

No. That's my opinion after dealing with Christianity all my life.

I thought I was being rather blunt saying that to you, considering the fact that you are a Christian, and my bluntness made me think of the Radical Honesty movement. So I threw that in as a side note.

When one has to capture others words to state an opinion, then there is some pondering and thought required

Let me be honest here, how can you let someone else tell you how to think? Or speak for you?

Awesome link!

I took a course once about communication with children. It stated much the same. Allot of children have issues because their parents say one thing yet their expressions say something else. It's extremely confusing to the child, as they are very good at reading people. For example, allot of children will nag their parents to play with them. Often, the parents will say something along the lines of "I'd be happy to", although they are clearly tired and don't really want to. The child can tell, and it confuses them. It also makes it harder for them to trust and understand the adult. The course argued that if you are too tired to play, you should tell the child so. Or at least say: I am very tired, but will play with you for a bit. It is much better than lying.

You assume that the consensus precedes my subscription to the mutually shared idea, when it fact these parallels usually emerge independently of each other.

HAH!

What happens is some opinion leader speaks, it is accepted then propagated, their opinion b/c your opinion, no thought required, after all, it is consensus!
