Im with kersey...either the person likes you for you or they don't....they may or they may not...everybody's preferences are different but doing things to stand out that wouldn't normally be you is a bit misleading because you're still you and when those things start to drop off he/she will notice the difference and wonder whats up....its far easier to discuss with someone than assume....maybe if they're someone who likes to talk to a lot of people while you're getting to know them they aren't in your compatibility range....its up to you to decide to keep talking or not and maybe things go further and maybe they don't....but discuss it at least....
me too but you don't have the freedom to spread lies....that has nothing to do with freedom of speech...and yes you can say as you please but you're also not free from the consequences of that...getting banned from places is a consequence....you old coot....
you can let go of your attachment to negativity and just view it as part of the flow of life...not labelling anything as positive or negative but just as is it......this has nothing to do with avoidance but rather coming to a place where everything just is as it is on its face without the need to label it as something else....
this isn't about free speech at all...this is about spreading lies....lets call it what it is...it isn't disinformation its spreading lies and hate....whats the purpose of spreading lies and hate?...its incitement...whether that incitement be through actual physical violence....hoping to change an election outcome or harassment....its still incitement....you don't have the right to spread lies with your speech...that's they there is liable and slander laws....freedom of speech comes with a responsibility and that is to make sure your speech is at least truthful to the point it doesn't damage others.....
here's the thing about being fast....you can only go fast for so long before your body slows you down.....been there done that and its called burn out.....
