Its important to note that maturity doesnt automatically come with the brain fully developing. The brain being developed is a requirement for maturity though.

Of course, but only because he wasnt invited.

Still? Ive never clicked one in my life.

Noone can tell if youre a bad person based on this. But youre definitely not the same person as back then. To the better or worse, who knows. Its in the past, you cant change it, but you can make sure that you wont be doing stuff like that (or adult equivalents) in the future. Dont bury the memories, keep them as a reminder but also dont beat yourself up over it too much.

Donno man, China seems a lot better right now than US at least.

Not saying that either should be supported though^^

Not the most complete answer, but definitely the fastest one^^

I know what you meant. I was exaggerating a bit but its still not healthy. For you and your relationship. Sure, you shouldnt constantly be complaining or getting upset at your partner because you yourself are upset, but if you dont show that youre sad its gonna weigh you down.

Going behind his back doesnt show a lot of trust either. You could tell him how you feel about it (dont demand that he stop, just tell him you feel sad when he follows pretty women or smth) and you can talk about it. If its not that important for him, he may stop. If it is though, you may try to give him that freedom or find a compromise. But not talking about it will just leave you feeling sad whenever you think about it.

Take it with a grain of salt though, Im not a psychologist.

Youre faking happiness and think thats something he should appreciate? Big oof

You claimed that you are basing your belief on statistics, which are the opposite of ‘a hunch’. Turns out it was just that.

By this logic, if I post 10000 videos claiming 2+2=5, it becomes true by ‘statistics’?
To answer your question though, statistics are not predetermined independently from the truth. Truth is the basis and the number of claims for any statement does not change that. By assuming that 1% of all sightings are real, you already assumed that aliens must exist. The probability for aliens being real under the assumption that aliens are real is 100%, but you just made the premise up. This is not how statistics work.
There are many examples from the past, like witches, werewolves, vampires, giants, … People used to claim their existence but not anymore. By your reasoning they must have existed back then but suddenly they dont anymore?
Also how come ghosts and aliens exist almost exclusively in the US? There are almost no reports in any other country.
Just for fun, Ill try to come up with an example using your ‘statistics’, I wonder if you can argue against it without invalidating the reasoning in your post.
There are 8bn people on earth. They are all reporting that they themselves are human. Even if 99.999% of those reports are true, that leaves 80,000 non-humans amongst them.

TL:DR lies dont become true just because they are being told often.

You mean without being linked in?

A friend of mine whose decisionmaking I respect a lot. Good balance of logic and empathy. He would be an awesome president and hed hate me for dumping that shitton of responsibility on him. Wouldnt want to be in his shoes. Also id miss him, but its for the best.

That may be the case. I will need to conduct my own research^^

• that sugary sweets make kids act “hyper”

Do you happen to have a source for that? Coz I have witnessed kids act like a horde of wild monkeys on crack right after eating dessert on multiple occasions.

I see, thats actually good practice, just unusual. The “who” also sounds less odd.

Not a native speaker but the last one, using ‘it’ instead of ‘they’ would sound the most natural to me

I think Cyberpunk is more likely. Huge buildings, no plants, no animals, everything controlled by big corps and law is basically non-existent except if rich folk are affected

Maybe they are friends but have different political and social values. That happens.

If supporting fascists in taking over the USA is a deal-breaker to you, thats totally understandable though. But remember it is the easy way out, convincing them would be the right thing but much harder.

I couldnt care less. I never understood how people would be angry at others for forgetting their birthdays. Its just a damn anniversary…
