You mean the Mos Eisley cantina in Episode IV? Interesting, because while George Lucas often prevented people writing about many of the characters he seemed not to care many of the minor characters in that scene. Consequently every characters that appears in that scene has had an entire back story written for them.
Or do you mean the slang term "Star Wars Bar"
A Bar/ Pub filled with strange, unusual and often dangerous characters. while these establishments hold no offical affilation to the franchise, the abundance of fights and/ or bizarre happenings is reminiscent of the mos eisly cantina bar in star wars: episode 4. Durham's Yates bar on most week nights is a fine example of a star wars bar.
I don't know any highly successful, career-orientated women. Not a notion what they would actually want and I'm not sure if you could apply the usually run of the mill social psychology theory of "women want a man of higher status" to these women. Not disagreeing with you per se, just saying I don't know. Even if it was applicable, status isn't just about earning potential.
To paraphrase yourself- Perhaps they would choose a masculine man who is most likely to give her healthy children and raise them into well rounded adults.
There's more to masculinity than money. You said so yourself
"stronger than they are, more confident"
Also I'm certain that in many relationships who takes charge will be dependant on circumstance. i.e. One person might be in control of the purse-strings but the other is the boss in the bedroom.
Doesn't everyone have the right to change their mind?
I thought the cliche you are talking about is,
"It is a woman's prerogative to change her mind"
The difference is pretty semantic but the above means it's her exclusive right to change her mind.
If people are denied the right to change their mind then how can they be expecting to grow and develop? Changing you values and beliefs is probably one of the quickest and way of implementing lasting change in your life.
I'm sure it is a simple mistake on profile and not an outright lie though.
I have met women who have lied about their age and generally what happens is when you start asking them about their past they make a mistake. They say something like, "I graduated from college 20 years ago". so you do the maths and ask them. so you graduated when you were 12?
Establish the rule that it is OK if he doesn't want to communicate sometimes, and needs space to calm down, but he must agree to talk about it later at a specified time.
If someone is angry and they use withdrawal to deal with it then you need to give them space. By stepping back and giving them space it actually invites them to communicate you where as if you were to push them for communication they withdraw further. It's called the push-pull dynamic.
Sounds like you want to get in there before his tadpoles pass their expiry date peach. (I'm just kidding!) But he's not the most unbelievable profile I've seen on CS. There is no way that I would name them on a forum, but if you IM me I will give you their user name.
I'm passionate, I when I fall for someone I fall hard and I fall fast. And yes, I think it has scared a few people off. I think it has to do with trust. For some, trust takes time develop and others give it freely.
I thought some of the ideas and techniques in these books were interesting in that they were a bit counter-intuitive and the opposite of what I had been doing before.
I think they the problem with the men's dating advice books and PUA is that a lot of men are going to judge their success by the quantity and the physical attractiveness of the women they score with. If that's their goal then perhaps these men could be a little bit more introspective before running game. Also, a lot of PUA's claim that it should only take 10 - 12 hours to seduce most women. Which is funny because only 6% of women admit to sleeping with a guy within the first 2 days of meeting. Someone's lying!
IMHO A lot of the important advice which works for both men and women gets glossed over by these books and they focus on the technique and strategy instead. for instance..
1) Look after yourself - eat well, exercise regularly, keep clean & dress nice. 2) Set yourself standards - Figure out what you want in a partner, what you will and won't tolerate and what qualities you really admire. 3) Improve yourself - Always be learning about the things you are passionate about, set yourself goals and try new things.
Could these three simple pieces of advice (couple with Don't be shy) be the basis of finding someone you could be happy with? i.e. If you look after yourself people are going to notice and be drawn to that? If you are always learning you are always going to have something to talk about and appear interesting to others?
I think that 'improve yourself' vitally important and I over the last few days I found myself wondering if Elliot Rogers had just looked inwards and decided to focus on his own personal development would he have been consumed by his hate and felt compelled to do what he did?
PUA is an acronym for Pick up art. It's also could be called men's dating advice or seduction technique. It was popularized by Neil Straus' book 'The Game' and soon after an entire industry has sprung up around it and now there are tv shows, seminars and training courses that are supposed to teach men the skills needed to approach and seduce women. Needless to say a lot of men are prepared to spend and good deal of money on something that promises them success with women.
The killer Elliot Rogers supposedly studied PUA but wasn't very successful in his attempts. As such he joined and posted on forums such as PUAhate which is a collection of men who have spent time and money on courses and tuition but haven't got the results they wanted. IMHO places like PUAhate are full of some quite bitter men. The site has now been closed down.
Breaches like this aren't going to stop. Get used to changing your passwords. If they're in keepass you'll spend a lot less going through the the whole reset your password process that most of these sites have because you changed the password 3 months ago and now can't remember what the hell it was.
Before I start I would like state, as some others already have, that nothing is 100% secure.
However, Keepass isn't a website... A man in the middle attack is not applicable against keepass because it is a application that runs locally on your device and the password is not sent over a network. A man in the middle attack could capture the login details for dropbox but without the password for the keepass database they would only be able to decrypt the file by:
1) brute force it - Keepass uses 256bit AES encryption which means even with a really fast computer you're talking billions of years to crack. or 2) getting the keepass password by some other means such as a keylogger, but if there's a keylogger on your computer and you're not using keepass then your passwords are gone all the same.
If you want to add a third stage of authentication you can also use a key file to unlock the keepass database so that the the database can only be opened on devices that have that file stored locally.
Furthermore personal devices just aren't as visible or tempting a target as commercial websites.
I can understand people's skepticism (I was too at first) so don't take my word for it read about for yourself.
Keepass allows you to manage multiple different, long, complex passwords like the one above, it's secure and widely used in many corporate environments and throughout the technology industry.
My post was meant to inform and provide a simple solution to a common problem experienced by a lot of people.

RE: Men... What do women do/say that annoys you?
Funny, I thought pegging was something entirely different...
