Quite a lot of people experience physical discomfort or pain from eating the things you listed.

A good portion of the world is lactose intolerant, justtpo point out an obvious one.

Meat can cause a “spike followed by a come down” effect somewhat similar to sugar in some people.

But what I think happens is that people dont make the connection between how they feel and their diet.

Well assume I do and that was my response. I’m sure thats not all it takes to convince someone a conspiracy isn’t true.

How do conspiracy folk answer that counterpoint?

Yeah its really a perspective and lifestyle thing, although I’m at the point where I might actually turn something down if it meant I was required to carry around any more than I do now unless it was worth it, like for a job.

I won’t even do small chain rewards cards or any of that nonsense, and none of their apps work with a degoogled phone anyways, so I just pay extra to not have to deal with it.

If you use it right, it can protect your mind too!

Women share things like this with each other to keep each other safe in most cases. It can seem cruel but if a girl feels like the way you reacted to rejection was bad enough it was a red flag, then they have every right to share that with their social network.

All it takes is some self awareness and acceptance of your own mistakes and they will quickly change their tune though. Humility is very important especially from a mans perspective towards women.

The person telling you no isnt saying you are a shit person, it means they aren’t interested in you. You’ve surely met women you aren’t interested in right? You would be right to tell them no if they asked you out, as the alternative is lieing and misleading, and will cause pain in most cases.

Its okay for someone not to be interested in you. Breath a little, step back and calm down. Its like some version of main character syndrome.

Also, I would consider it a huge red flag if someone had such a negative reaction to being told no when asking someone out. It implies there is a lack of confidence and self assuredness that is a base requirement to be in healthy relationship. We all know women are very careful of red flags and share them with each other as well so this can be self defeating.

If you want to find someone to be with, then you need to figure out how to properly treat someone like an equal, which includes respecting both yourself and them enough to prevent a negative reaction to simply being told you aren’t a persons preference.

Where do you think personal preference comes from? You are born either liking or hating dogs? You need to do some better reading as it appears you replied after reading a quarter of my post.

And yes, someone who reacts like the OP to the situation they are in is a red flag for me. They are childish and selfish, and can’t even consider that the dog is a whole other living being that is involved in this situation.

It shows an incredible lack of compassion or understanding and thats not even considering the attitude they have towards their actual human family members.

I understand wanting to vent but this is not that, this is asking for validation. I would never post something so awful about myself but hey, different perspectives right.

Well if I take it as a serious point, I dont see still how its useful to bring it up. We can’t change our natural impulses, only how we react to them. Following a vegan diet is no more challenging physically or mentally than managing a regular diet if you have the same goals.

Its akin to saying that a mans nature makes it difficult not to sexually assault women. While technically true, it has nothing to do with identifying problems and creating solutions.

I’m struggling to find any good reason to bring up natural instinct besides as an excuse.

Growth itself can increase or decrease, you are aware of this right?

Calorie dense isnt an inherently positive feature. Its what has led to high weights in america to begin with. Calorie dense just means more calories in your belly before you feel full. Are you underweight and need to pack in as much as you can when you are able to eat?

I wouldnt recommend eating that way while overweight.

I’m not sure theres reason to promote adhering to your base instincts. Do you also try to mount every woman you find attractive?

Surely you can comprehend the idea of choosing to abstain from something you have the urge to do?

Absolute numbers vs percentages my friend. Populations increase, absolute numbers increase, but what happens with the percent of the whole?

It raises flags because most people who dont like dogs are either afraid or dont get a long with them. If you were afraid you’d say that, but you said you dont like dogs so the reasonable assumption is that you dont like dogs because dogs dont like you.

Its hard to find a comparison but it would be similar to saying “I dont like my mom”. Unless you have a follow up story involving abuse that was not your fault, you are the problem.

That said, there are plenty of people who feel immense fear around dogs or other negative emotions, and while that perspective can be changed over time, its by no means required.

I think this whole post would benefit from the OP adding more background about why they feel so negatively towards dogs, but they seem to want to blame it on dogs or their family rather than think about that.

I understand where you are coming from, but when has “poor me” ever resulted in a benefit. You aren’t a victim here, you just dont like dogs and let your family tell you what to do.

Its not that you dont have the leverage to refuse the request, its that both parties have no leverage unless its accepted.

You are not required to solve your families problems either.

The only reason I disagree is because ive had both perspectives so I know theres a possibility to change if wanted.

I very much disliked my mothers dog for a long time. Didnt want to take care of it or be around it or anything. Thought she was annoying and clingy.

Nowadays I just see the dog different, despite all of her problems getting worse with old age. I feel compassion for her and it makes me happy to see her having fun when I come to see her now.

Its very easy to let an animal just be an inconvenience or a problem, but I think the key is giving the animal a basic level of respect. You wouldnt treat the dog that way if it were a human in that situation.

Apparently being constrained by deadlines turned him into a procrastinating, spineless teenager.

Can you prove they do listen?

Just because it doesnt make sense to you doesnt make it wrong.

The way this stuff works is by collecting many data sources and combining them. It doesnt have to be you that searches for roof stuff, could just be someone connected to you searched for it while on your WiFi, or say you call your mom or dad and then they start searching for a roof company online.

I believe the very first one had skill points that unlocked an extended ending and game art.
