    Americans Abroad

    I should say that it is very helpful if you speak French. I will say this... the French, as a general rule, have a very low tolerance for bvllsh1t. This can come off as smug and rude, so I get your point. I learned French from my Cajun grandmother, so I have something of a strange accent. In...

    Americans Abroad

    I actually went the French Command and Staff College when I was a Major, and was in Paris for 6 months. Paris is fine, but any chance I could get out of the city and visit the countryside I took it. Every large city in the world is like this... you really don't get a feel for what the people...

    Americans Abroad

    I went to Bulgaria in 1995... back then it was terrible.

    Americans Abroad

    True. The other thing that Americans do when traveling overseas is only focus on 'popular' tourist locations... seriously... Europe is filled with history, there is almost no place that you go where you can not find something cool and interesting... yet Americans will pack themselves into...

    21 with 4 failed relationships - Any advice?

    The only advice I have is to not focus so much on 'relationships'. Work on you and your life, abandon bad habits, work towards personal goals, date when you have time. Then let the women figure out if they want to work to get and keep you. The problem is as soon as you think the...

    Inside the World of Leg Lengthening (to get women)

    Stupid, but if I was a shorter man I might think different. Height is something that is really important to chicks, and if you haven't been gifted the genetic lottery that puts you average or above in height then I'm not judging anyone.

    How Do You Cold Approach, When every Woman is in a Group?

    I thought everyone knew this.... You approach the group, talk to the group... then the women in the group that are interested will let you know, then you focus on her. I guess the problem is too often a man will see a group of women, pick out one in the group and try to separate her from the...

    Which coaches are the real deal?

    Yeah... it is part of SERE and interrogation training. But again, it only works on people that are open to manipulation. Depending on the state of mind of the POW, it can be effective given time to manipulate the person being questioned. Someone that is SERE trained will take MUCH longer to...

    Which coaches are the real deal?

    NLP is a useful tool when trying to treat fears as a tool set in therapy, and can be helpful for people to change the way they think about things though use of language which can subconsciously change the way you view things (like the difference between 'want' and 'need'), but there is a great...

    Which coaches are the real deal?

    He's a con man... here is his 'method': (1) You are the problem, the reason you are unsuccessful is YOU... you lazy fvck. (2) You can fix yourself because all your problems are you. (3) Buy my bvllsh1t books and weekend workshops. (4) If this doesn't work for you... well it's your fvcking fault...

    Anyone ever use TRT?

    I figured it was BS, I like my MD, but doctors today really are more interested in keeping people 'alive', he sees my low end of what charts say is 'normal' and he doesn't see a problem. But FVCK, I have noticed a difference. Harder to keep fat off, low drive, attention span, slower workout...

    Anyone ever use TRT?

    For years my T level was in the mid-600s, this past year I have noticed that is has been harder to keep fat out of my midsection... I can diet, but the last thing to go is the waist fat... I can live with it, but it's aggravating. My energy level and sex drive has dropped in the last year. The...

    Why are women so bad from age 25-30

    In my experience age isn't a root cause. If a woman is hot, at any age, she is going to be harder to date. As a general rule, how hot she is is a function of age... but not always. I know women in their 40s that take care of themselves and are pretty hot, they are a lot more difficult than...

    Analysis of interation with a girl

    Truth here is that she is trying to push you away. A woman that likes you is going to try and hide this. Most women have some kind of emotional trauma in their lives and depending on her resilience of her as an individual if she can overcome this. If she isn't feeling immediate attraction to...

    Gf not sharing pictures of you on social media

    I'm not sure... it certainly indicates that she doesn't think you are worth showing off, which isn't good. But in my experience, the women that post a bunch of stuff about their BF/husband are ones that will cheat when given the chance. Social media does not reflect what a woman is: it is what...

    Your thoughts on queen elizabeth dying?

    My ex-wife is British (Scottish to be exact), my daughters were raised as duel citizens and I am surprised how this has impacted them emotionally. All during my marriage I was always surrounded by images of Queen Elizabeth (coffee cups, photos, everything). When I divorced, I tossed all that...

    Question for my brothers in the military past and present!

    Doesn't bother me at all. I know quite a few Rangers that are ticked off about that because the standards were lowered. And they were lowered no matter what you hear, the question is, do the old standards REALLY matter, when it comes to training. IMO no. The first phase, as it was when I went...

    Question for my brothers in the military past and present!

    Most are/were good soldiers, the private contractors don't really hire dirt bags. My problem is with the companies themselves, in many ways they are over paid, with little quality oversite. I saw a lot of misuse in Iraq. They would get hired to do support functions and frequency fell short of...

    Question for my brothers in the military past and present!

    I was prior service enlisted, but not OCS. When I joined it was very similar to that movie "Stripes". I had just been dumped by my GF, l kicked out of my University's architecture program (I apparently had no artistic talent, which is true.). My car broke down in a strip mall that contained a...

    Question for my brothers in the military past and present!

    Maybe, but when you start talking about physical limits in military service you have to ask if you would be willing to force men into special forces service. So ask yourself, would you be willing to force 40 year old men to go though Navy Seal training. If the answer is no, then you have your...
