I’m gonna work on V day and probably go to a casino that evening. No buffet. Regular dinner.
I didn't say that I go to buffets all the time. In fact, I have not visited a buffet since before the Pandemic. Therefore, I can't really start defending something that I'm not doing or have not done. In terms of whether I will contemplating visiting a buffet this particular year in February, around Valentine's day, then perhaps I might plan to do this.I thought I read in one of your posts that you were a Christian. How do reconcile going to buffets with your faith? In Christianity, gluttony is recognized as one of the seven deadly sins.
"Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh: For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags." Proverbs 23:20
I didn't have sex with any escort, so I successfully practiced abstinence.And I suppose that one can go to a wh0rehouse to practice abstinence. But who actually does that?
Never try to read a woman's mind. It is a scary place. Ignore her confusing signals and mixed messages. Assume she is interested in you and act accordingly.

Find out if there is an admission fee and how much it is.Bumping this thread because I just heard about a V-Day event in my area that I wanted to ask about here.
So a radio station in my area is hosting a singles mixer event on V-Day night, its about 2 hours long and I’m pretty sure there’s no admission fee but I could be wrong about that.
I looked into it a little more, what I found says that its open to everyone 21+ and there’s no mention of an admission fee, so you’d think it’s probably free since that would be bad to not tell people upfront that you have to pay an admission fee and then just charge them once they get there. I do wonder if it would be twice as many men than women there, I could definitely see that happening especially if there’s no admission fee.Find out if there is an admission fee and how much it is.
just go lolI looked into it a little more, what I found says that its open to everyone 21+ and there’s no mention of an admission fee, so you’d think it’s probably free since that would be bad to not tell people upfront that you have to pay an admission fee and then just charge them once they get there.

You don’t think it looks bad or weird to go to an event like that by yourself?just go lol
Create self-fulfilling prophecies. Always assume the positive. Assume she likes you. Assume she wants to talk to you. Assume she wants to go out with you. When you think positive, positive things happen.

There's no real net loss in you going. Worst case scenario, it is lame and the liqour store is open lol.You don’t think it looks bad or weird to go to an event like that by yourself?
This is true and I could always go back to my original plan of drunken gambling if it is lame lol. I also had reservations about going because I’ve felt that I would even fail the common icebreaker question of what you do for work. Right now, I deliver for DoorDash and that’s it. I’m sure that would be fine if I was still in my early 20’s, but I’m 30 and I feel like I’m gonna be looked down on for that at my age, but maybe there’s a way to put a positive spin on it.There's no real net loss in you going.

I just didn’t know if its customary to bring a wingman/wingwoman to this type of thing since I’ve never been to one before.It's a SINGLES mixer. You're supposed to be by yourself.
Virtual pat on the back to you.Today is February 3rd. When contrasted another reference date, Oct 25, the previous year, there is not much difference in a year to year basis. Except for one year in 2013. I was in a relationship with someone leading to marriage on October 25, 2012, and on February 3rd, 2013 she was completely gone and I was single again (ie we broke up in November 16, 2012, but again it's about contrast of specific reference point dates...the reality in Oct 25, 2012 vs the reality in Feb 3, 2013). The Valentine's Day/month really stung badly in 2013. There was never a year that I felt worst that that time. Having years where the previous year is not dramatically different to the current year, is rather peaceful in its own way (ie my reality in Oct 25, 2023 vs today is about the same today). Felt like a hole in my belly in 2013 during this month.
Likely an event that will be complete shiit. We have a thread about singles events in general below.So a radio station in my area is hosting a singles mixer event on V-Day night, its about 2 hours long and I’m pretty sure there’s no admission fee but I could be wrong about that.
Porn induced erectile dysfunction. Someone with porn induced erectile dysfunction is able to get erections while watching porn but is unable to get erections in real life sexual situations.What is a PIED?
New Years Eve and Valentine's Day are litmus tests of one's relationship status.I find NYE and V days to be the two days that are total amateur nights for people who don’t normally go out, everything is overpriced and crowded. It’s insane to me.
Who knows, it could be. Like I said when I first mentioned it on this thread, I looked up the hosts of this morning talk show that are putting on this event and they’re all older than my age group. So there’s a good chance I don’t line up with the age demographic that will be there. Because even though it says open to all ages 21+, most millennials and gen z don’t even listen to the radio and wouldn’t even know about this event anyway. And like I also already mentioned, I feel like I would fail the most common icebreaker first question of what you do for work. All I’m doing right now is delivering for DoorDash and that’s it, that might’ve been ok in my early 20’s but I’m 30 and I bet most or all of the women there would look down on me and immediately write me off from that, which would make me feel even worse.Likely an event that will be complete shiit.

No I’m working on recovering from it still, but only started at the beginning of the new year so that’s not enough time I’m sure. That did cross my mind though that in the unlikely scenario where I did meet a woman at this event and she wanted to have a ONS, my PIED would just ruin that.Have you even fixed your PIED problem? If you haven't fixed your PIED problem, there's no point in doing anything. You need a structured rehab program for your PIED.
We all seem to hit all of the anti-seduction checkmarks.And like I also already mentioned, I feel like I would fail the most common icebreaker first question of what you do for work.

I put some bold highlights in your post to illustrate what you are saying, and if it makes sense to even go to this event. Why worry about a stage that in all likihood would never happen since you may get nexted on the icebreaker question anyway? If you feel you hit most or all of the anti-seduction checkmarks to the point you are just shooting yourself in the foot as soon as you open your mouth, then why worry about a scenario that might never happen?needimprovement250 said:No I’m working on recovering from it still, but only started at the beginning of the new year so that’s not enough time I’m sure.

It doesn't matter how good-looking you are, how romantic you are, how funny you are... or anything else. If she doesn't have something INVESTED in you and the relationship, preferably quite a LOT invested, she'll dump you, without even the slightest hesitation, as soon as someone a little more "interesting" comes along.
