Don’t call others names outside of the Pit.

I guess I should have known something was up when I asked what she wanted to eat or drink at the cafe and she said…“im fine”

Well the fact that she sent the text 2 days later means she is on medication

Normally, the better someone knows you, the more likely you are to get a second date. But if you’re a sociopath, you’ll only get dates from women who don’t know you.

Most human beings who are mentally stable do not have the extreme black and white utilitarian view of relationships that you do. Assuming this is the way you are coming across IRL stop and ask yourself what kind of woman or person in general would want to take a chance having a relationship with a person like you? You’re in or you’re out with someone like you there is no kindness or empathy buffer a person can rely on to get past disagreements or misunderstandings.

You like to think of yourself as strong, direct and honest however this quasi-autistic binary world view of yours where people who are of no utility to you are effectively dead to you is off putting to normal people. Assuming this is not trolling and you’re serious that this is actually the way you look at the world you are going to have difficult time with serious relationships .

FBJJ, your opinions and feelings are reprehensible. Any woman who gives you a 2nd date has extremely poor judgment.

If that’s a pattern you’re noticing, maybe explore how you are causing it to occur?

Hmmm. Probably best you go and do one of them rather than continuing on this path. There’s a big old world up those stairs!

Don’t call someone an asshole in MPSIMS.

Feel free, however, to start a Pit thread to call someone an asshole.

I won’t ask in this public forum about your specific fetishes, but it would help the community to help _you_ if you could maybe indicate on this line where your fetishes lie:

1: Appreciates a nicely turned ankle  
.  
.  
.  
.  
.  
.  
.  
.  
10: Necrophiliac cannabalism

Ah. Yes. [You are addicted to Facebook](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=728775). That’s a worthy hobby that doesn’t lend itself to stalking, right there. Nope. Not at all.

You sound like a real catch! I can’t believe all these women are disrespecting you.
