That special definition of “My country” where he means land he hasn’t even visitted in decades, if ever, but thinks he owns, and magically its all the people living there who have no rights to it.

They’ll toss them as soon as it returns “CITIZEN” on a brown-person they “just KNOW” is in the country illegally…

My first comcent ended on the note that if you got your way, we would likely never interact again, and that that was fine by me. You didn’t have to treat this thread like your last chance to save my soul or sell me the latest from Amway global, but here we are.

I’m not here to apologize that some rosy cheeks and a linen-wrapped body that’s had its organs ripped-out doesn’t do it for either of us. Maybe move on with your day rather than literally chasing things to annoy and then claim you were the one being annoyed-by.

Attempted, sure, but it very much requires specific audiences to land. Did you think the word “delivers” was in there to look pretty?

Inspiring conversation and thought is far from “nothing else”. I thought I had implied this one delivers fuck-all in the way of “sexualization” unless one is desperate or aversive, but I guess I’ll make that statement explicit; It’s not sexy unless that’s what one is desperate to see or avoid.

I chuckled at this one for many reasons, not least of which because she would be dry, brittle, smelly, taste awful, voice probably horrifying, as well as delusional, dumb, or just inconsiderate to boot.

Whatever the case, not even a conversation first? On all but my worst days, I had more game than that, and could draw a mummy that doesn’t look like a water-filled baloon too, but sure, all that’s possibly going on with this one is innuendo.

I checked myself on the dude.

I thought the joke was that she forgot what Mummies do and made up something on the spot that just happens to suit her and her victim, this time.

EDIT: we don’t get the victim’s reaction. Not every dude’s a monster-fucker wannabe.

This is some of the most over-dressed, under-cleavaged-nippled-camel-toed-or-ass-hanging-out gooner-bait I’ve seen in a minute, but maybe the fact I can say that means you’re onto something.

It mostly amounts to you and I would be in seperate circles, but you do you.

Honestly, this exact scenario playing out with AI lovers of both anatomies and getting bad-enough that people decide learning to understand and put up with eachother’s non-sense is the better option … is the best chance our species has in this and future generations.

Otoh, we all know its mostly men, and this represents maybe a bottleneck we need to weed-out the ones that will never get the lesson. Here’s hoping there’s enough genetics in it at-play to actually eliminate a substantnal amount of the right(very specific levels/attributes of NP, gullibility and psychopathy) things, and not pointlessly cost our species a bunch of genetic diversity that could otherwise hang-around.

If that second paragraph seems harsh/eugenic, understand its the only potential possitive I see along this path, and almost certainly accidental if it works-out that way in the end at all. I believe anyone trying to make such happen on-purpose is insane and a bad person, promise.

More likely, our grand-kids will all be fucking robots until they die, and “their” kids won’t be so-much theirs as clones/test-tube-babies the robots raise, should they for some absurd reason deign to keep flesh-bags around at all.

Oh noes! People are incapable of adapting their aesthetics to changing bodies, how cruel! Someone tell my wife of 18 years before she finally listens when I say she doesn’t need to lose weight for my sake!

Seriously, are you so far up your own ass that you don’t think old couples fuck? Or just convinced those that do couldn’t possibly have loved eachother as much when they were younger?

Where did I say shit about “don’t settle for anything but top-shelf?” If women are the ones better at staying attracted to their partners, then what’s up with all the lesbian dead-bedrooms?

If anything, my advice about not settling was aimed at women, and to men not to settle for being settled-for. Not my fault if you waste your time fretting over all of the lonely or soon-to-be-deservedly-lonely people who don’t even enjoy their own company.

Or do you prefer everyone treat companionship as a means to an end?

Honestly, I’m the opposite. Fools are the only company I’m fit for, but “smart” fools if I can find them, if that makes sense. I try to avoid feeling like the “smart” one, although that avoidance hasn’t required any effort for me among my friends for literal decades by this point.

Yeah, he thought it was her and didn’t care if the breath was a little off, or more likely didn’t smell it, but either way, he’s the opposite of repulsed at the thought of her touch, no matter how out of the blue or overbearing … pay attention.

Let’s be real, few women are going to be happy about the skirt-pull either, so these two are particularly into eachother. That’s goals.

Your SO should be exceptional to you like that, on the order of you not minding if they accidentally got turned-on by the dog, no matter how viscerally repugnant the thought otherwise is.

This is literally it. If two healthy people can’t work-out their issues together like-so, or rather if the idea isn’t appealing to both, any intimate relationship is all-but-dead.

Your SO should look good, sound good, taste and smell good to you, or you’re gonna spend a lot of extra effort forcing things to work. Hardly anyone has that effort to spare for any long span of time, and they’ll often revisit a cost/benefit analysis that shames them and creates its own problems.

This is literally what’s happened until now and a big part of how we got here. The only things the government knows how to do about this is to arrest people, both parents and children, and make schools more like prisons.

Welp, you’ve nailed why I find it so ironic/hillarious when I’m told, at length and in excessive/invented detail, that I haven’t internalized/accepted my own failures enough.

Mind you, it almost never involves (even meta-physical)injury or inconvenience to anyone else, so there’s a lot of lip-flapping from people who can explain everything they have a problem with except for how what’s being complained-about is any of their business or problem.

I spent enough of my life believing I was myself toxic that I just doubled-down. My mental-health suffered, but we’re at a point like a stand-off. I have an exit-plan and conditions that will trigger or prevent it, and I hope she does too, but with medication and therapy, I mostly feel like I’m where I want to be. Without it, my relationship would be irrelevant next to all the un-hinged shit I would get up to anyways.

I myself am not all that attached to the truth so much as I occassionally have to remind certain people that trying to convince anyone of utter-falsehoods and “non-disprovable” gibberish is boring, wasted effort, or worse. There is no upshot to abusing those who love you, at least not on a one-way street, and modern society has places if you really want to play the stupidest-possible games of bumper-cars.

Psychopathy? Autism? BPD?

I stay medicated and too busy doing right by my family to dwell on it, but I have enough emotional depth that I sometimes wonder if I didn’t just decide to try to think and act like an unhinged psychopath one day(WAY before I met my wife…) in the hopes of avoiding abuse & despair. I’ll tell you this much: Whatever the case, that last part definitely didn’t work-out.

Love-bombing a love-bomber can get epic, but then there’s the fallout when the one drops the act and is terrified by the possibilities that: you weren’t acting, you were just matching their energy and can meet them down in the trenches before they can actually drag you down, and/or you knew what they were up to and refuse to be made to have a problem with it(see “weren’t acting”).

Now you’re stuck with a bait-and-switcher who cannot grasp that you might not be pulling the same trick they just failed to land.

If this sounds like a lot of drama and a massive pain, it is, and that’s why its not recommended over disengaging once you’ve realized what’s happening.

You new to greentext or what?

Real gaslighters LOVE the opportunity to further twist facts, or maybe its compulsion. Its better to either disengage entirely or focus on one or two key points their bullshit cannot change
