You know, I'm an introvert myself. I was schooled in an all boys school and up to college it was all boys. Then in my masters course, I met women and had to socially interact with them for the first time in my life. I used to come home and have panic attacks. And it was a time when I had lost...

I read all your threads you wrote today. I just want to say that like you I held 3 corporate jobs. I didn't suck at work. I was good. But it was taking it's toll on my health. It was a night shift that goes all night late into the morning. I felt drained. I'm a martial artist and health was...

Your girlfriend has a lot of characteristics my mother has. I hope she's not middle aged like in her 50s. Even if younger, some people just withdraw into their shell. My mother's middle aged and very similar. Full of conspiracy theories. Too much religion. She was a Church goer. Now she just...

Well it is hard for me because I want a woman to love me for being me and not for what I have. Unfortunately, every woman I have met so far and made attempts romantically didn't give me that impression. Growing up, I thought people loved each other without materialism and I also would find...

Arnis is a very effective close quarters fighting system. Amazing demonstration of weapons disarming. The ground techniques are similar to Japanese Jujitsu. The wrist locks look very effective. All these techniques are combat applicable. The teacher executes them with finesse. Pencak Silat is...

Good to meet a fellow martial artist. Kali Arnis is one martial art not commonly found in India. Kobudo is. Next to that, there are Kung Fu weapon systems. Along with Indian traditional weapon systems. Martial arts weapons of course. I prefer nunchakus. I would not be so good with the double...

That's good for you. I'm thinking of getting a dog myself. But that's responsibility too. Maybe I will someday.

I read the first message and a little from the thread. You're reaching out because you feel no one understands your situation? You're not alone. I'm in my mid thirties. Never been in a relationship. I've gone after friendships and tried to maintain them and about half my friends just left me...

An unwanted gift to me comes from a person who does not bear my best interests and wellbeing at heart. There are simple hearted people who would gift simple things and things that won't be so costly but with good intentions. Those are good gifts. There are people who might get you gifts. They...

I didn't mean to call anyone any names or belittle them. Not my way. I just said if a parent were to send the child out of the house when they are underaged, that would be irresponsible and that would lack empathy for the parent to do so. How else can I say that? I was speaking hypothetically...

I never said that it was easy. Nothing is easy in this world. I'm just saying that a child is a gift from God. We all talk about how it's wrong to kill a child before birth. We say it's life. Kicking your child out of the house without taking responsibility for what becomes of the child after...

A very good example where parents don't give up on Children. No matter what happens. Because, if parents don't care for you in this world and love you. Good chance of not many others loving you. That nurture is needed. Falling into bad company is very unfortunate. It's happened in my life. That...

If parents hadn't expected that of their child, then they should not have one in the first place. If you have a child or ward, no matter what the state they are in, you have to help your children. You can send them away. But, make sure they are still well cared for if they are underaged. Also...

As someone who comes from a generation where corporal punishment was not frowned upon either at school or home, I think it's not right. Maybe that responsibility could be left to parents and only in extreme situations. As someone who had endured corporal punishment. That trauma stays with...

If you read the story of Lot, you would know how God feels about Gay marriage. Do you know what happened to the people of Sodom and Gomorrah? Please refer the book of Genesis. God created Adam and Eve. And God said, "Be fruitful and multiply." Not even animals do what we do as human...

Christ does not preach kicking out. He does not say, divorce. We do that because we are hard hearted.

That's a very sad thing which you shared. Yes, people share things on social media from zits, to marriages, to family history, to funerals to child birth, etc See the kids this generation? They're glued to their phones. People seem more disconnected with being a person out of the internet...

I can do that. But you asked about violence first :)

I'm a martial artist. So, yes. I like violence. Controlled, effective, violence. I do it all. But I don't do mixed martial arts. I don't compete MMA. However I do compete as a grappler. I've trained and sparred in many disciplines. I do this and it has helped me to get out of childhood...

It's not uncommon. Just talk to the person, get to know him. Then you could ask him out, etc. It depends from individual to individual. The difficult part is being honest about your feelings for the man. Once you're past that,it's all good. All the best
