It\u0026#039;s new,refreshing and provides different type of value. I know it\u0026#039;s hard to find new topics without rewriting or rewordind old ones.

Then he said he would try to turn it around using methods he\u0026#039;s used prior to successfully turn around bad sets,but it didn\u0026#039;t work in this one.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIt was pretty unnecessary and it became one of those viral incidents that put pickup in a bad light like that Julien blanc video.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nThe 4th one (Newman from Seinfield lol) from reading the comments was a coach or teacher of some kind according to some comments which makes it even more confounding.

Like how LMS is popular, men are online telling men to pay for dates and it\u2019s preached about online. Most men are very adamant about men paying for dates and not going half or having her pay. Saying that men need to be in control the whole time and if you do anything other than that, you are not a man and won\u2019t get any. They feel very strongly about this. Why? I\u2019m being serious, this site is the only site that says that a woman paying or going half is best, while many others say a man needs to pay no matter what. I wanted to know your thoughts about it.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E2. What would be the best kind of dates you recommended? I\u2019m hearing women nowadays don\u2019t like cheap dates. I\u2019m also wondering if you do pay, how do you limit women without them trying to take advantage of you without you looking cheap? Like say you go for drinks or coffee, how do you make it known you\u2019re only getting one thing without her trying to add to your tab?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E3. I\u2019ve seen your response about muscular black men who do well with women by acting friendly and stuff. I was wondering does acting serious and smooth work as well or is it too intimidating?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E4. I\u2019ve read your reply about calling out bad behavior when people make smart comments about me, but I kind of don\u2019t fully understand it. I get I can say you\u2019re jealous of me or you\u2019re trying to piss me off or something, but I feel there might be more that may need to be said. I\u2019d also appreciate it if you could think of a way to have it stop entirely too. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EWhat I\u2019ve noticed with these comments is that they always try to make me sound like a weak person, people make these comments that I\u2019m too good, I\u2019m nice, I\u2019m quiet, I\u2019m shy, I wouldn\u2019t do this, I\u2019m so this, etc. it\u2019s always a bad comment like that, and to be honest it\u2019s very random to me.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EI\u2019m very aware of how I act and I do admit I am reserved, but the things people say are something else and I don\u2019t get why they say most of these things when they don\u2019t even know me for the most part. I\u2019ve had some family talk this stuff to me too. I\u2019m not out here being goofy or acting weak really. I\u2019m a warm welcoming person, yes, but for these people to talk like this to me makes no sense. I\u2019m not being fake or a try hard either. I even tell them off after they make these comments. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThat\u2019s the problem I really have is that i\u2019m being harshly criticized when they don\u2019t know me, and I don\u2019t like how they feel comfortable doing that.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe only thing I can think of to combat that is being a very mean and cold person. Like how you say not to be, frowning, eyebrows down, etc. but then if I do that I feel fake.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EI also read something from you where you said you learned how to still kind of intimidate people, but you\u2019re a warm person.  \u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EI\u2019m just tired of people criticizing every little thing I do and trying to make me sound weak. It\u2019s at a point I where I really will tell people off harshly in an instant no matter who they are because I\u2019m tired of it. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAny advice is appreciated.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThanks\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E      \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022pull-right\u0022\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022links list-inline\u0022\u003E\u003Cli class=\u0022comment-reply first last\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/reply\/3618\/91474\u0022\u003Ereply\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022indented\u0022\u003E\u003Ca id=\u0022comment-91553\u0022\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022comment comment-by-node-author well clearfix\u0022 about=\u0022\/comment\/91553#comment-91553\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:Post sioct:Comment\u0022\u003E\n  \u003Cimg class=\u0022authortag\u0022 src=\u0022\/sites\/all\/themes\/custom\/girlschase\/images\/comment-author-1.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Author\u0022 width=\u002260px\u0022 height=\u002260px\u0022 \/\u003E    \u003Cdiv class=\u0022user-picture\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Ca href=\u0022\/users\/chase-amante\u0022 title=\u0022View user profile.\u0022\u003E\u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 data-src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/picture-1-1492164307.png\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/all\/modules\/contrib\/lazyloader\/image_placeholder.gif\u0022 alt=\u0022Chase Amante\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Chase Amante\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003Cnoscript\u003E\u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/picture-1-1492164307.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Chase Amante\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Chase Amante\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003C\/noscript\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \n    \u003Ch3 property=\u0022dc:title\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/91553#comment-91553\u0022 class=\u0022permalink\u0022 rel=\u0022bookmark\u0022\u003ERe: Questions\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\n  \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022submitted\u0022\u003E\n            Posted by \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:has_creator\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/users\/chase-amante\u0022 title=\u0022View user profile.\u0022 class=\u0022username\u0022 xml:lang=\u0022\u0022 about=\u0022\/users\/chase-amante\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:UserAccount\u0022 property=\u0022foaf:name\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003EChase Amante\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E on Wednesday, 20 October 2021  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/article\/social-life\/social-skills-101-basic-social-skills-are-100-crucial\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/comment\/91474#comment-91474\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-items\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-item even\u0022 property=\u0022content:encoded\u0022\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAnonymouz-\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EMost guys follow the herd and accept whatever mainstream thought they receive.

So I would isolate girls, like in a park, and start kissing them. I did it with two girls, both who were having a great time on their respective dates. First one rejected it, got awkward and left. Second one went for the kiss in a \u0026quot;why not?\u0026quot; kinda vibe and then left shortly after.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EBoth blocked me, which never happened before. But looking back, me kissing them felt definitely wrong, like I was going at it caveman style, when they clearly were not ready. The fact that both blocked my number made me realise that just because I\u0026#039;m not scared to escalate, does not mean I should do it, especially if they are not ready.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ESo to sum up:\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E1.
