RE: General Chat Thread - crazysam23 - 09-07-2016
Biggest red flag for me was always, "Is she trying to change me significantly?". 2nd biggest was, "Does she like my friends?". If a gal tried to change me, then she probably didn't really like me for me. If she didn't like my friends, then she didn't really like me for me.
Fortunately, my wife has never tried to change me (there's things IÂ have worked to change in myself). And she was one of my regular friends, before we got married and she became my absolute best friend. Sounds cheesy, but whatever.
Honestly, I see a lot of gals who tried to manipulate my buddies back in college. They wanted a relationship on their terms, regardless of how the guy felt. Watch what a gal says, how she says it, etc.Â
And, for you ladies, all of what I said also applies to men!

When I get to know someone, I find out if they're taking crazy meds. Another red flag for me, is if they start telling you their life story pretty early on in your friendship. If we've been friends for a couple of weeks, and you start telling me you have daddy issues, or something very similar, they usually end up being an attention whore and want someone to always feel bad for them.
The biggest stinker for me, is if you introduce yourself with a list of what makes you different from everybody else. I knew a girl who had either a new medical condition or phobia once a month. She's also claimed that every guy in her social circle has raped her on at least one occasion, except for her boyfriend at the time who most likely actually did rape her, if you knew the guy.

I'm not sure if this ties in with something I mentioned earlier, but I know a guy who's writing a multi-part story. He shares his rough drafts for peer editing purposes for things like grammar/spelling, or tips for fleshing out the plot and such. While I'm not going to give any details on the actual plot, as its kind of irrelevant to this topic, but I'm trying to figure out his point in asking for help in spelling and grammar.
While we could go into nitpicking about common mistakes like they're/there/their, two/too/to, its/it's, etc, the problem is when things are just flat out wrong. The thing here, is that it's not that people are getting salty at these mistakes, it's the fact that he gets salty at people correcting them. It's bad when you have this direct quote, "I'll let you a cross the river", and obviously someone will point out the mistake, yet he'll get salty and then blow you off that "a cross just flows better than across".
That's hardly the only case, so it kind of bobbles me when you ask for help, yet you blow off all of the help.

There is an art to being wrong. The individual in question clearly has not mastered it.

Not sure if that was intentional, but that was hilarious.

Sorry if I haven't been that active lately, I had a business trip to Denmark. Let's say I got hammered on all the booze the Austrian guys were handing out.
