  • Well, most men are objectively stronger than an average woman, are they not? It’s not about superiority, it’s about a fact you need to keep in mind before picking a fight.

    Attention: not with their own and personal, political, ideological criteria, but with the criteria of the society, as they are expressed by the education policy of the current government. (emphasis mine)

    You wouldn’t want every anti-vax and Holocaust/Holodomor denier teacher to teach only their point of view, right? They should make clear, at least in a neutral way, what the government/societal consensus thinks.



  • Yes, I meant your replies in this thread. I have no idea what your post history is and no desire or reason to look it up.

    I assume you have already looked it up after writing that; I would have a temptation. I want to clarify that the post about solar inclination-based geolocation where you were also present was a part of a separate thought process going on for a few days and it being posted close in time was just a coincidence.

    Just the way you are replying to everything and being overly analytical on everything. You seem to be trying to attack this problem like a programmer who is programming something. Dude, real life ain’t like that.

    I thought “incels” (in modern degradatory definition) were supposed to be emotional guys who hate women because they don’t have feelings they want. Not people who approach dating rationally and try to estimate each other’s feelings using best scientific methods available. Never heard Sheldon Cooper, or Data from TNG being called this way.

    BTW, I think you said you read just the post to her before getting this reaction, you never said anything about the comments.

    How much dating experience do you have?

    None, and I was never accused in being improper in trying to get into one—because I approach the subject rationally. I would never approach anyone in that way until I’m reasonably confident they are interested in me in a sufficient degree. Finding the most compatible person may be a lifetime-long quest, but it pays off at the end.





  • I heard and counted your answer. Your answer was prefaced with a personal attack. You tried to invalidate the feelings I had and reflected on for years, the feelings that once motivated me to become a substantially better person, knowing me and the situation from a 726-character post. That personal attack was used as a part of your argument, so I found it reasonable to argue with it. By the number of downvotes, it seems the community largely agrees with the image you’ve got in your head, although I would argue you couldn’t have enough information from my post to make the loud claims you made.




  • You’re… quoting an encyclopedia. On matters of romance and affection.

    Well, someone was disagreeing with me on the definition of a word. What else was I supposed to quote? A dictionary?

    I can just about guarantee you that reality is unlikely to fully match what you have in mind.

    Not sure what you mean. We knew each other quite closely.

    And… well, taken with your other replies and apparent reluctance to integrate and/or accept the rather consistent gist of the replies you’re getting, you’re starting to give off a wee bit of an incel vibe.

    I… Don’t understand. The only replies I argued with tried to redefine love as someone that may not happen outside of an established relationship, a definition seemingly not familiar nor to Wikipedia, nor Britannica, nor Shakespeare, nor Dostoevsky.

    Could you quote the parts where I’m giving “incel vibes”, please?

    but it sounds like you may have the opportunity to rekindle a friendship, and then see if it goes anywhere as things evolve. If you push really hard on the romance angle, especially if this is a very out-of-the-blue thing for her, you’re very likely to squick her out and nuke any chance…

    What part of “one-sided” could you miss? I’m not looking into meeting her again. She now lives thousands of kilometres away and definitely never liked me. My question had no hidden meaning: the “confession” was simply a matter of curiosity satisfaction, a reassuring compliment, and a way to close unanswered questions, as every person has a right to know of everything related to them in the highest possible extent.


  • Love is something that is built up over years of being in a relationship. No relationship, no love.

    What?

    From the Encyclopædia Britannica:

    love, an emotion characterized by strong feelings of affection for another arising out of kinship, companionship, admiration, or benevolence. In a related sense, “love” designates a benevolent concern for the good or welfare of others. The term is also used to refer to sexual attraction or erotic desire toward another. Love as an individual emotion has been studied in several scientific disciplines, including psychology, biology and neuroscience, anthropology, and sociology.

    Romeo and Juliet never got to live as a couple. Were they not in love?

    We knew each other for 11 years, were bonded by various class activities. I believe that’s enough for the proper and pure feelings to form.
