All of them are bad.
All "diets" work essentially the same way. Calorie deficit via eating less.
You can lose weight with any food if you're at a calorific deficit. |

| Tofu, edamame, lentils, beans, peas, protein powders/bars/shakes, nuts, seeds, peanut butter, whole wheat pasta. I don't think tracking protein/macros is necessarily a vegan vs. non-vegan thing. Some people are very health conscious or trying to reach particular goals. Some people just focus on eati... |

| 1) The general assumption that being in a relationship with a romantic interest is the end-all goal. That it must be the end of every movie. (Sometimes the end result is that both people aren't compatible. Sometimes realizing that you're both better off as friends than a relationship is the end resu... |

I gave you a lot of constructive advice, and outlined a lot of things you could be doing better. You overlooked all of that and just replied the other person.
It seems like you just want to vent rather than improve. |

If they decline, I'd say something like "All good, whenever you're free let me know". Then stop contacting them, and just move on and talk to other girls.
Leave the ball in their court. If they reach out to you, cool. If not, keep moving on. |

| This post comes off as really judgmental. Judging people for having felonies or addictions in the past. Judging people for having psychiatric diagnoses, on an online forum about neurodiverges. Then classifying them into myers-briggs types, and judging them based on that when you barely know them. Ju... |

| There are pros and cons, but I like dating apps because you get to learn about them from their profile. You get to see their views on politics, religion, kids, what they're looking for, what they do in their free time, and if there's an incompatibility, you know then instead of weeks or months of da... |

I'm generally fine with it.
Though if I'm out with people either of us know (i..e friends,family, coworkers, etc), I'd be tasteful with it. |

| If people are worried about being labeled as a creep, maybe talking to women in a friendly way/getting to know them as people should be considered rather than hitting on them. Just a thought. Yeah. It helps to not get invested in a particular end result (i.e. them dating you). You don't even know t... |

| From a dating app. We met at a bar. Talked for a few hours, about all sorts of aspects of our lives (upbringing, job, values, plans for our future, goals, our flaws, challenges we have in life). We were both extremely honest to each other, and the fact that we both were positive about it, and neithe... |

| This is not only a small sample, but also a biased sample. Reddit is disproportionately young men. Also, men with relationships (or active dating lives) are less likely to spend time on forums discussing these kinds of topics. It helps to have a real social life outside and not rely on reddit for da... |

| Starting a business sounds really appealing, but I don't think everyone is meant to do the sacrifice. Starting a business means you may be working 9 to 9 instead of a 9 to 5. You'll likely have to give up your social life, dating life, hobbies, entertainment, travelling, etc. just to get the busines... |

One of the core purposes of college is to prepare you for a career.
And if you want to get into a career field, having people skills are beneficial. |
