Nice.

Oh great here we are again.


Wow I know you don't like me but even my therapist is stumped with how to deal. All he says is 'Real World Smash! Stop theorising in a vacuum!' The next intervention is inpatient on a psych ward, but I'm too high functioning for that. Tl;dr socialising makes no sense to me :s-smilie: except with my immediate guy friends who are fairly predictable

Everyone else already knows that there are double standards for men and women. Have you been living under a rock like my friend?


No I'm autistic-but-everyone-says-not-autistic. My social confusion has led me to pursue an Aspergers assessment, which I score borderline for on prelims...

OK well then continue to be a bitter and needy individual.


Well, I tire of having to play this 'I don't need you!' game. If 20 years of playing has failed I'm probably playing wrong.

you need to focus less on girls and more on yourself for now. maybe treat women like actual human beings when you eventually get to meet one, not objects that need to be won, or prey that need to be chased down.
:sigh: It was going so well, and now you're back to being a **** :frown:
Just another double standard, one of many.

How's it a ****/dick thing? It's actually a thing which bothers me, like most mini social dramas (swear I'm Aspergers man, getting it checked out in summer)

i am gonna still make these threads just...not as much hopefully. And get banned soon when I can

I
focussing on myself=focussing on my difficulties understanding others=case in point women (my male.friends are much easier to understand and predict)

This woild be easy if I just took the solitary approach and got a job, the issues in therapy are the hard work

Yeah definitely I agree with your point completely girls can get away with ignoring guys all the time. Why can't we? I've experienced it lots.

Come on man.you were doing so well.

I'm begin to feel old. Fed up of exams. Of people not improving. People going backwards.

Smash fact is you won't be so worried about this nitty gritty crap if your life was busy and fun.

Get off the computer and go do stuff. Go live life. Maybe you're lonely? Join every club if your town until you make mates and soon itl be a thing of the past.

But this sort of thinking is going nowhere.

Irony is I've got mates it's just they're all dudes.

The house is getting painted atm so I've been cooped up in my room, that I've been on my phone for 48 hours straight is my own fault tbf :redface: today has just been lazy af and dirty

well how I get treated online shapes how I expect to be treated irl by strangers, and especially girls. That there is a women's boycott on me besides a small knit of kind souls offering me a lifeboat is troubling :/

gonna join a Waterstones book club this summer hopefully, seems as though my bff's off to Japan and bff2 is prepping gor finals

also got my song covers to do!

It's just so fuvking hard to let go when you know it's going to haunt you later down the line man.

dont give a **** bout it then

the way I see it is when you've got nothing to lose you've something to gain

no matter how bad it gets you can turn it around

as the lower it gets the more risks you can take...the less straightforward it can be
anyways im outta here good luck

I hear such sayings a lot in discussion. My opinion is there is a world of difference between entitlement to sex/dating, and to a lesser extent friendship, and common courtesy to acknowledge one another, say hello etc.

I say this because I find that when a guy ignores a girl, he's called rude inconsiderate selfish and immature. There's a recent thread dedicated to dissing a guy who did this

BUt when a guy is ignored, he is often accused of having a major entitlement complex.and to reassess his actions.and attitude.

I see this as a side effect of perpetuating the notion that men are likely to harrass after, even before rejection, so ignorance is the best policy. I believe this to be a dangerous assumption up there with 'all men will rape given the option' and rather than helping to create harmony between the genders, it's creating needless drama and conflict. It also assumes that men only want to talk to women to get in their pants.

I would elaborate but I'm on my phone.I'm a but rusty tonight :redface:

WHy is there this double standard? Do you see it often or am I exaggerating? If so do you agree with it? :s-smilie:

Women basically want the tried and test method were a man must go cap in hand, asking her for favours whilst she's free to reject him with no more hesistation than she would brush away a street beggar.
