High Self Love = Focus on high ROI in everything
I didnât mean naked literally
Would love the community to do readings of those xD Would be pretty revealing.
Itâs probably easy for me to make light of it because I am not a male and have not experienced the frustrations that must be felt of always having to be the one to âput yourself out thereâ
So I empathize, and Iâm happy youâre making peace with yourself and where you stand on these matters
I canât say I really know the answer, as I donât remember a lot from dating, but I think something as simple and lighthearted as the emoji thing can just be good for bringing laughter and fun into a conversation - and then just donât stress about it, let it unfold
Humor and making someone laugh does not necessarily trigger sexual attraction though. In most cases it doesnât. Entertainment value is not sexual market place value. Otherwise the clown of the class would also be the harem kingâŚ
I disagree though - jokes work. I feel the majority of women prefer men with a sense of humor.
Thank you for the empathy.
From a male perpective, getting âyourself out thereâ is a combination of self love, testosterone and healthy dopamine receptors.
Self Love = feeling worthy and deserving
Testosterone = the engine that pushes the sexual drive ahead
Healthy Dopamine Receptors = seeking rewards from the right sources
I get what you are saying, the answer is overall complicated but I wouldnât know how to revive a conversation with humor when the conversation itself is so stale. Like dipping your socks into dirty water and walking around with it.
At that point, a brother gotta dip and leave.
It does not really matter what they consciously prefer.
What matters is what makes her wet.
Which is what the limbic brain decides in most cases.
While humor is rather something that may appeal to the prefrontal cortex, it is simply a ânice to have requirementâ.
So we have to differ between ânice to have requirementsâ and ânecessary requirementsâ.
Most ânecessary requirementsâ are under the dominion of the animalistic limbic brain.
For sexual attraction to happen, the necessary requirements need to be triggered necessarily.
One cannot make someone attracted to you with humor, but on the other hand if there is already attraction there, a lack of humor will not destroy it.
A relationship without sex, is a friendship.
I think we are ultimately talking about the same thing but Iâm going with a more direct approach.
A sense of humor is a side effect of confidence and charisma
So someone with a sense of humor is desirable because one is subconsciously picking up on all the traits that have kept humans reproducing for millennia
This is the truth. Also we/they feel that wasting our time and wasting your time is not beneficial to either and it is not acting with integrity.
Also true. Personal experience, I was getting to know a man that made me laugh more than anyone, but repeatedly I felt unsafe, he did not feel/act robust, steadfast, grounded, secure, stable, solid.
In comparison, another man, made me laugh less, but all interactions with him i expreiecd safety, robustness, steadfastness, grounded, secure, stable, solid, protection, care about my wellbeing (very serious sometimes).
You can guess which one is more attractive on a deeper, primal level.
Its a double face sword
Sometimes one of the 2 does not express or communicate clear relying on the fact that you should know , you can read my mind etc.
Naaauuuh. Talk. Ok? Talk.
Water signs, you may all raise your hands now
Iâm kidding, Iâm kidding,
I know itâs not âenlightenedâ to make astrological assumptions, but câmon they are usually true
And the good news is, you work through them and with them.
Part of the human experience, it ainât all bad
And the interesting part too is these things are all on a spectrum. There are varying degrees of people who are the type to be like gives them the stare instead of speaking
And in and of itself I dont think itâs toxic per se, I think it depends on the disposition of the two individuals and how they interact. Some people need clear concise communication and other people just kind of flow. And this might only make sense if one has had that kind of relationship before, and thatâs okay too.
Its all fun and games until you express what you believe they think or feel (according to your psychic or telepathic abilities) and then they say âits all in your headâ âits not what i feel or thinkâ
Ok⌠so what is it then?
Silence.
âRead my mindâ
Haha
AhhhâŚ
Oh man, I donât know
I can pick up the energy from your post and I donât know if you experienced it before but it definitely feels like two people just not on the same wavelength.
I guess I didnât adequately describe what I was trying to convey.
Words đŽâđ¨
I mean the kind of knowing you have between two people and you really just donât need words to flow about your lives together.
Perhaps itâs a rarity.
I remember my most toxic relationship always had to have a lot of words. Always having to try and see eye to eye. And honestly, that just wore on me. I could never just rest.
5 planets in water signs, incl. Sun and Moon lolâŚ
Also certified rescue swimmer.
Also, I like to drink water every day.
I know i know what you mean
But i mesnt its great and fantastic until you really need to speak things not be guessing and relying on extra abilities, we are mature here and when there is a time to talk talk we must.
But i agree all the beauty part lol
No hun.
Healthy relationships talk.
Toxic is to run away from it
And for the record i also have a lot of water in my chart, but still. Verbal communication is important.
Perhaps is the way they used to talk to you like in an imposing way, thats different, or demanding to talk when you dont want.
Lets not confuse both
Iâm not confusing anything. I know my truth - it may not resonate for everyone and thatâs okay. Sometimes words donât convey a concept Iâm trying to get across and thatâs okay, I can live with that.
My spouse and I communicate without words all the time. This is simply my truth.
Im sorry, i think we were just talking about 2 different scenarios.
I was talking more about when discrepancies or issues arise.
That is important to talk.
And you were talking more or regular basis, day to day things, od course is awesome flowing without too much chit chat. Correct?
I like both. There are times i want to talk away with the SO or in general with close friends or family etc
Other times i just want silence and each one doing its thing, and that should be respected as well.
And i wasnt telling you that you are confused it was more a rethoric comment, because i understand what you were trying to say as well as my point. I was making sure both instances are perfectly fine with me not contradicting you.
