Thanks guys. Yeah, I think I'll just have one or two games that I really like and then leave the rest. I'll probably just rent them from now on and then give them away when I'm finished with them.
Things have being real tough recently. A lot of anger has come to the surface to be realised. I didn't realise how angry I was about certain things, quite frankly I'm getting a mild headache.
The good news is that I have a lot of people in my life, my parents and a woman I'm dating who are really positive and supportive.
I have a lot of fear about being labelled a creep or a pervert for showing interest in a woman. Interestingly though, even in this tough time, when I get out and about women are generally positive towards me. Also when I don't a get a response from a woman (like I smile at her and she doesn't smile back or looks away) I'm ok with it.
Somehow thinking about things is worse then actually experiencing them. Looking back there have being times when I got rejected by a woman and then literally moments later I met a woman who was really warm, open and flirty.
I think I've heard a lot of guys say that stage 2 of both the Alpha Set and the Woman Magnet is really tough. I'm feeling a lot of pain but I know that I'll get through this.
It seems that getting out around people really helps to alleviate the pain. I think that this is due to what we imagine in our heads is much worse then reality. Many film directors used this in suspense and horror in the past. Like instead of showing gore they would cut away before the knife cut somebody (i.e. Psycho) or instead of showing the monster you would only see a part of the creature and it was that much more scary (i.e. Alien). So in a sense what you imagine is much worse then reality, so simply talking being social can alleviate a lot fear and distress.
I've noticed some interesting changes though. Me and my girlfriend went and saw the movie Piranha 3D a couple weeks ago and we both really did not like the film at all. It seems that horror films are no longer about suspense and story anymore, they are just about gore and watching people in extreme pain. I really hate watching people suffer at the moment, even if it is just acting.
I'm also really finding sexploitation disgusting. I love seeing a woman naked if there is a real connection between me and her and she is right in front of me and there is a connection between us but I don't like seeing women used as sex objects in film anymore. I find that it just turns me of because it comes across as fake and contrived to me.
