    What is the difference between dating exclusively and being in a relationship and why does it even matter?! I don’t understand why people struggle these days with label aversion.

    I would thinking dating exclusively has more to do with fwb type mindset...leaves the door open for possibility of a better option...🤷‍♀️
    Or, im just making stuff up

    would you rather:

    be able to eat every(any)thing you want without gaining excess weight,
    but all food has the consistency and texture of wet sink food

    or

    everything you eat tastes like delicious pizza and you never get sick of it,
    but all calories and carbs are tripled with *each* bite.

    Well, why not call it what it is then? Why do you have to put some fancy title on it. Just my thoughts

    exclusive means exclusive. its a bigger deal.

    "being in a relationship" is nebulous.
    it could mean that someone is in a relationship with you, but you aren't in one with them, if you know what im saying.
    and vice versa.

    First thought was option 1, wet sink food, b/c Im vain...but then thought that assumes option 2 would make me fat.

    Option 2 might be the way to go, assuming you had some self control...or do the calories keep tripling forever till you die (3-6-9-12) or just for the item of food? Is there a daily reset?
    ...please say yes

    OH, WAIT!
    what if I just ate ice cubes, that tasted like delicious pizza!!

    option 2- the food counter resets every morning, but the calories and carbs triple with *each* bite you take until then. and you do still have to worry about your calories and such just to stay alive, so you can't eat just ice cubes either.

    That’s extremely cunning of you I must say.

    When I use the term relationship, I meant a monogamous relationship.

    Sorry I forgot to state what I thought was obvious. 😬

    Damn, though I found a loophole!

    I feel pretty confident that I'd
    ...be miserable either way?

    Oh wait, this is an analogy for eternal suffering right!

    So many things on my mind...
    • Have we become less happy in this age of technology?
    • Is love simply physical desire or something more?
    • What is true friendship?
    • Why do we strive for perfection if it is not attainable?
    • Can life be meaningful without friends?
    • Does an ideal government exist?
    • Does free will exist, or is every action predetermined?
    • Are we a minuscule part of intelligent life in the universe?
    • Does belief make God exist?
    • Are we the biggest threat to humanity?
    • Do parallel universes exist?
    • Will racism cease to exist?
    • Will the world be a better place if caste and religion cease to exist?
    • Do we love ourselves more in the virtual world and less in the real world?
    • Will the world come to an end by human hands?
    • Is true beauty subjective or objective?
    • If all the currencies in the world did not have monetary value, would our world be a much better place?
    • Why do we throw away food when we know people are dying of hunger?

    Whoa.

    Whoa is right. I had something on my mind. Then I didn't. Some comparison to the whoa worthy post eh?

    Not less happy but certainly more dopamine resistant which might be the same thing
    • Is love simply physical desire or something more?

    It’s brain chemicals at first, then a choice
    • What is true friendship?

    When two people think of the other more than they think of themselves
    • Why do we strive for perfection if it is not attainable?

    We want what we cant have
    • Can life be meaningful without friends?

    Yes. Every life is meaningful in and of itself. Does it feel as meaningful? Depends on the quality of friendships you have known
    • Does an ideal government exist?

    No, government is only necessary in the first place because humans are flawed, but the only way to run a government is with said flawed humans
    • Does free will exist, or is every action predetermined?

    +1 to free will, no question
    • Are we a minuscule part of intelligent life in the universe?

    No. There is no other intelligent life
    • Does belief make God exist?

    No. Belief and God are separate, therefore they exist independently
    • Are we the biggest threat to humanity?

    Yes
    • Do parallel universes exist?

    No
    • Will racism cease to exist?

    Not for a long long time
    • Will the world be a better place if caste and religion cease to exist?

    Yes and yes to religion but not faith
    • Do we love ourselves more in the virtual world and less in the real world?

    No, if we did we wouldn’t make ourselves out to be better than we really are
    • Will the world come to an end by human hands?

    No, we’re naive to think we have that much power
    • Is true beauty subjective or objective?

    Subjective
    • If all the currencies in the world did not have monetary value, would our world be a much better place?

    Would make no difference, value would be assessed in other ways
    • Why do we throw away food when we know people are dying of hunger?

    Because when you have access to food and don’t ever experience true hunger, it’s impossible to understand the true scope of the problem much less imagine being part of the solution

    And another Whoa!

    @Motorsheen Hey there, I like the Soggy Bottom Boys. :) Just wanted to tell you that there's so much fire/smoke in the atmosphere that we're like fish out of water. I was thinking about you the other day on the 'just tell me the good things'. Sometimes, multi-cr@p hits the fan and there ain't a cotton pickin' thing we can do about it. You o:) make people smile when the chips are down and that's good enough for me.
