Are my standards too high? or am I just a loner?

    Take 10 dried grams of shrooms, discover the meaning of life, then go out and look for people. Your perceptions will have changed. You will have more of a "fuck you" attitude. Sounds bad, right? Wrong. You'll be happier than ever. There are other ways to discover the meaning of life but.... I'm just giving an example.... Fuck it. Life is just a dream. Look at the palm of your hand and see your consciousness connecting with oters. The peoblem with that is that they are unaware of your collective identity. THat's when you look at them and say "fuck you".

    From personal experience, I found mr. right once. He was intelligent (the #1 thing for guys in my mind). Before I continue, did you know that it is difficult to maintain a relationship with someone that is ten points lower or higher than you on their I.Q. score? I don't want to brag but I have a healthy I.Q. which will make it hard to connect with others on the intelligence level. Moving on... he was a kind of philosopher. We were both on a similar journey to be happy and figure out what life, our lives and the world is all about. We would talk for hours about the meaning of life, about sociological issues, about religion, faith, what was bothering us... everything. We were also very physically attracted to eachother which helped us have a very... plentiful sex life. Oh those were the days. Unfortunately, we had to part. I have the same kind of emptiness that you have, A Canadian. It's an amazing feeling to share everything with someone. You'll find it. Your standards ARE high. Never lower your standards for a relationship. It's what society want you to do so that you hook up with some hill billy whore and you spawn to feed the consumer fucking society. You're still young. Like I said, PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE. If you're unhappy, then you have nothing to lose. FUck your job. Fuck your living quarters. Fuck your parents. Fuck your friends. FUck it! GO OUT THERE. BE HAPPY. I'm not telling you to give everything up, just fuck it. Keep what you like. DOn't become a slave to society. If you're happy living in a dump having orgies with 5 60-year-old then DO IT. GO FOR IT. You only have one life, make the most of it. Befor you know it, you will be 25, the 30, then 35 and then eventually, it will be too late. You won't find a girlfriend on your death bed. I am asking you to go outside right now and run as fast as you can and scream as loud as you can. SCREAM, Yell "FUCK IT", yell whatever you please!!!!! THen start over. DO IT, NOW THrow everything you hate away. Take a deep breath, find your voice, your purpose, and recover the oh-so-lost spirit you used to have. Don't lower your standards. Make everyone else raise theirs. Evolve. Make others evolve. Make this work a better fucking place.

    That's your problem. You believe in aliens. No smart chick is going to ever going to take you seriously while you suffer delusions.

    You might find a well qualified chick who seems to understand you, but it won't be a perfect relationship either, as you should never fuck your therapist.

    (hmmmmmmm).......i kinda partly agree with some posters here...example, i like 'I LikeSalt's' advice to take some shrooms, and explore, but i dont like the 'fuck off' insight she got, nor the IQ rubbish. IQs dont mean jack shit. they were invented by middleclass psychologists to make middleclasses look smart. theys a pile of shit....my opinion

    good adive you got about joining certain clubs....a good one would be a healthy pursiuts type of club. that way the girl you may find will be FIT, and into Nature--ie., something outside...walking, bicyclin, anything healthy. plus she may be a natrual looker. not wearing too much make up
    YOU, stop mpoing and find interests yourself. guitar.....DJin, emmmm, get yourSELF fit. girls love fit lads..!
    explore being funny. that is one big turn on. this is where shrooms come in very much too. with right set&setting, they will greatly enhance your sense of humour. help you see the funny side of a host of situations. so try that. start watchin standup comedians....humourous books whatever

    but i say all this tentatively. i personally HATe adivce! i can find it dis-empowering. like when someone criticizes how you dress etc

    so, take what i said or leave it. FIRSt TRUST yourself. what do YOU wanna?....and all this shit about being a loser cause you are on your won is complet crap. ther's nuthin wrong being on yer own. in fact, see it that you have more freedom. ther's nuthin worse than being lonely IN a relationship where you feel trapped, and constricted......
    just be cool, keep fit, see funny side, but also be intouch with ALL how you feel....
    cool

    so. you recommend him shrink med do you. is this why your name sounds like one??

    and you are SO wrong. when what you see on shrrooms Is the source of funny, and you really are funny. what i feel from you is this.......dont mean to cause offense here, but i am being frank: i find it REALLY sad when people underestimate hallucinogens--and that is straihts. when the underestimators are the ones who HAVe experience it is doubly sad. it is something which intrigues me. personlly (and i dont want to derail thie subject of this thread....)right from my very first experiences they have had a profound influence on my worldview and encouraged loads of researches into their history etc., so i can nev er understand when people dont grokk em like me and others os a similar respect,

    Ah yes...the 'fuck you' attitude.

    The #1 motivator. But you forgot to mention one thing: theres a tendancy to become complacent once you've satisfied a few goals. I'd know because I've always drifted in and out of this fuck you attitude. It turned me into more of a pessimist than a better person.

    Don't actively trying to not waste your life out of desperation. Instead of saying 'fuck you', say 'fuck myself'. Take responsibility for your decisions in life, but don't take the world on your shoulders. And don't try to control everything, because you can't. Just laugh when something goes wrong.

    Soooo true! Altough I don't know about the "middleclass psychologists" part.... The test seems pretty biased, actually. If you give it to someone in Africa that knows the names of hundreds of birds and herbs to cure all sorts of sickness, that person practically "fail" the test...

    Duendy, are saying that he should take hallucinogens and _imagine_ he has a girlfriend then? ;-)

    BTW, I thnk you need to go look up what 'Rohypnol' is famous for, to get the humour in my post.

    Why do either of those qualities really matter so much? I seriously don't get how you can 'be your true self' around your complete opposite, TS

    Haha.... so funny....
    I could have much higher standards if I wanted. But I guess that would be a waste of time...

    Turn your computer off, and take a good look around, in the real world.

    I doubt that would be to your benefit. Like they say-- you're a 5 asking for all 10's. Possible, but so damn ackward if you ever hooked up...

    Truthseeker, you forgot how far away 3 years time is.
    Ten zillion things could happen in that time! Now I might be being a dumbass here but I rarely find that I find what I am looking for without a bit of frustration first. Love is patient and kind. That means it is patient and kind to you as well as patient and kind in you
    Just be patient. You will meet her!

    be well

    What are you basing your grading on? :bugeye:
    I'm both logical and spiritual. I represent about 1% of the population (according to the Myers-Briggs test<sup>1</sup>). Finding someone that valorizes both sides of their brains is extremely hard.

    Logical people usuallly completely deny any spiritual part of themselves or the world. they deny that half of their brains actually exist, ort that has any validity whatsoever. :bugeye:

    As for spiritual people, they are usually either not used to logical argumentation or, like the logical ones, deny half of their brains.

    It is hard to be both spiritual and logical at the same time. It is practically impossible. It is like reading two books at the same time.

    As a result, my personality often splits itself into two different opposite positions. Oxymorons and paradoxes are the natural result of this primary chracteristic of my personality.

    With this primary characteristic in my personality, even if I have low stardarts, I'm unlikely to find someone that I can actually identify with (doesn't mean it is not going to happen).


    <sup>1</sup>I actually took the real complete one, in college.



    It is not going to take that long.

    20 years are enough, don't you think?

    Whatever. I have plenty things to distract myself while I wait. Just my list of books is already enough

    The 1% that uses the word 'valorizes' out of context?

    http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=valorizes

    I think you'll find that the hemisperical split in the brain is between logic and creativity, not login and spirituality, unless you admit, that spirituality is purely a human invention, and has no external reality.

    Have you thought about dating yourself? Your split personalities should get on like a house on fire, after all, allegedly, opposites attract!

    You guys just want Britney Spears with a degree in philosophy to walk by. It's not going to happen.

    No, I want an Eva Herzigova with the soul of Mother Teresa and the wit of a regular Audrey Hepburn. Just friends though, I hate to sound like a stereotypical wuss, but I'd rather not be "worthy".

    I'd also kill for a Jessica Simpson that knows how to fill the gas tank on her car
