I Asked a Psychopath How to Stop Caring About Rejection

• soganess 3y ago
  Does this seem odd to anyone else? This adult in their 30s: (1) Goes on a date with someone he calls a 'girl' (2) Think the date went well (it likely didn't) (3) Never reflects on why it didn't go well (at least he doesn't write about it) (4) He then talk to a self-proclaimed psychopath with the hope of actionable advice for giving no effs in the future (5) Gets micro-dosing curious (which is a lot of self experimentation) ...and all that instead of maybe changing how he approaches dates? Then he writes about it. If this isn't gorilla advertising for magic mushrooms, it is a lot of work to avoid a small amount of self-reflection. I know firsthand that being single post 20s isn't anyone's idea of a party, but still.

    I think you mean guerrilla advertising, but I like gorilla advertising better.

      hahahah. Now I can't stop imagining Koko as a startup marketing manager

      I'd like to think of it as a very obvious attempt at subtle marketing - graceful as a gorilla.

    If you're looking for a girlfriend, then it's probably best to go on a date with a girl.
