Life lessons I've learned. Please comment

[CCS]

1. Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass. It is about getting out and dancing in the rain.

2. If you constantly complain about how many people use you, word of your ease will spread, and more users will line up to use you.

3. Hold "the victim" accountable for staying around "the bad guy", so you don't become "the victim"'s victim.

4. Most people pay their debts and would never ask you for money. But 100% of those who do ask either can't pay you back or don't want to.

5. If someone is not paying you back, never give them more in hopes they will be nice to you or will be able to pay you back. People lie about their prospects or problems. Write it off and learn. Don't play superman if you are not. If it eats at you now, it will eat at you a lot more when it gets bigger.

6. Users know they can rip you off easier if you think that they are your friend, that they are a victim, or that you are going to get a deal. Fools lower their guard when they think they have a 1% chance of winning the lottery.

7. If you are not using what life Did hand you, then maybe, just maybe, you should not complain about what life did Not hand you.

8. Only people who can't find mutual attraction say "bros before hoes" or "chicks before dicks". And people who have not been the victim of jealousy.

9. I admire gay men; they leave more women for me!

10. Nothing is free. But some "payments" are too fun to feel like payments. That is called friendship, when it comes so natural that it feels free.

11. Obviously fake orgasms, and other signs of lack of interest, are a total libido killer.

True.


2. If you constantly complain about how many people use you, word of your ease will spread, and more users will line up to use you.

Can't comment, I just ignore people who use me.


3. Hold "the victim" accountable for staying around "the bad guy", so you don't become "the victim"'s victim.

True to a certain extent, there's only so much you can hold "the victim" accountable for. You can't force them to leave unless they want to. Either listen to their crap, or don't.


4. Most people pay their debts and would never ask you for money. But 100% of those who do ask either can't pay you back or don't want to.

I don't lend money to people and expect to ever get it back. If I would want it back, I won't lend.


5. If someone is not paying you back, never give them more in hopes they will be nice to you or will be able to pay you back. People lie about their prospects or problems. Write it off and learn. Don't play superman if you are not. If it eats at you now, it will eat at you a lot more when it gets bigger.
See #4.


6. Users know they can rip you off easier if you think that they are your friend, that they are a victim, or that you are going to get a deal. Fools lower their guard when they think they have a 1% chance of winning the lottery.
See#5, and #4, and #2.


7. If you are not using what life Did hand you, then maybe, just maybe, you should not complain about what life did Not hand you.

True. I could be a lot worse off.


8. Only people who can't find mutual attraction say "bros before hoes" or "chicks before dicks". And people who have not been the victim of jealousy.

Actually, in my circle of friends "bros before hoes" is just a joke. People who'll ditch you constantly for their significant others aren't worth your time. It's one good way to know who's really a friend.

9. I admire gay men; they leave more women for me!

Hahaha. Nice.

10. Nothing is free. But some "payments" are too fun to feel like payments. That is called friendship, when it comes so natural that it feels free.

Like a dinner that you buy for a friend because you know they'll buy the next one for you? Yah.

11. Obviously fake orgasms, and other signs of lack of interest, are a total libido killer.

That's pretty natural, I would say.

9. I admire gay men

Who wouldn't. They dress well, have a good eye for interior decor and don't get angry when you throw wild generalizations about their lifestyle about.

10. Nothing is free.

I'm living testament that the saying "no such thing as a free lunch" is bogus. In fact, many free lunches can be had. All in a row as well. Good lunches too.

11. Obviously fake orgasms, and other signs of lack of interest, are a total libido killer.

I must disagree.

I'm in there for me. If she doesn't climax within a timely manner then I'm not going to lose sleep over it.

If we men cannot understand or cater to the alleged complexities or mysteries (pfft) of the female orgasm then that is just bad luck for them. We men have done enough already, we made sure they got their abortion rights and paternity leave and we didn't even complain ONCE when domestic violence was outlawed.

Aussie: Did you really write the above statement??!! :shock:

You have more sense than I thought! :mrgreen:

CCS wisdom update:



If someone flirts with you, it does not mean they want you. It means they want you to want them: because they want you, or maybe for other reasons.

Health, good looks and knowledge are zero risk investments that can't be taxed.

Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass. It is about getting out and dancing in the rain.

If you are Not using what life Did hand you, then maybe you should not complain about what life did Not hand you. And maybe you will soon lose even what life Did hand you.

Give free milk once (start small), they get a taste and know you are willing to trade instead of just take. Give free milk twice, you don't get paid that time. Give free milk thrice, you will never sell any ever because they will never believe you won't give it free a forth time.

If "the victim" won't leave "the bad guy", don't believe there is a victim, so you don't become "the victim"'s victim.

Most people pay their debts and would never ask you instead of a bank for money. But most of those who do ask either can't pay you back or don't want to.

If someone is not paying you back, never give them more in hopes they will be nice to you and pay you back. And don't try to be a super hero if you are not one, especially not with someone else's money.

People fall in love when they get their hopes or beliefs up, not when they just see someone attractive.

"Just friends" and "Friends first" mean "never physical" if said about you to you, not to someone else.

If one profession started making a lot of money, a capitalist would go start that profession. A socialist would just try to get a higher tax rate for that profession.

We can't escape the control of government until we choose to stop trying to control other people so much. Skilled politicians try to find solutions for everyone, not just brute force total wins for one side.

You often lose some power when you show all your cards.

Gays and lesbian couples are the ideal solution for orphans and poor kids. We should use them, not restrict them.

Hate the rich? Has a poor person ever given you a job? Do not drink the well priming water. If a loop hole allows theft, fix it. If they make too much, why aren't other people going into that business?

It is easier for someone to rip you off if you want to rip them off.

Don't be easily flattered if someone you are attracted to lies about their interests to impress you. They may just want you to fall harder for them so they can get more from you for less.

Nothing is free. But some "payments", such as common interests, are too fun and natural to feel like payments. That is called friendship.

Only people who can't find mutual attraction say "bros before hoes" or "chicks before dicks", unless they can find mutual attraction with your partner.

Friendship bonds often are more mutual than sex bonds.

WTF?

I like these ones though

If "the victim" won't leave "the bad guy", don't believe there is a victim, so you don't become "the victim"'s victim.
