I sometimes do not understand the hate that people have towards JP.

I like JP’s social views on relationships, habits, parenting, men & women, etc. and he’s one of the most renowned psychologists in the world. Why so much hate? Genuine question.

Thanks

    Ever walk out on a shitty date though? One night I was smoking on my porch with this guy and was totally about to invite him inside when he asked me how I felt about antifa and then said he thought they were worse than Nazis, like unprovoked. I told him to leave and he was confused but then got really angry and I was a little scared but then he left.

    Not as fun as walking out on a shitty job (which everyone should do at least once, it rocks), but I still feel like I dodged a bullet there.

      This is super fun, when I quit my worst job ever (was riding the bus to a shitty restaurant to work as a host, and they kept giving me split shifts so I'd just sit unpaid for 3 hours in the break room because the busses we're not frequent enough to leave and come back) I just stopped going and my boss called me to ask if I was coming in for my shift a couple of hours into it, and I told him no and he asked why and I told him that I was at orientation for my new job. Manager was like "Well thanks for telling us," and I said "you're welcome" before he hung up.

      This was in the top five moments in my life.

      Talk about not reading the room.

      I've definitely fucked up a few dates before. There's an impulse to be angry particularly when you don't understand where you went wrong. Learning to control your worst impulses tends to come with age. I get the feeling that's why older men can come across as comparatively smooth. They just know when to keep their yaps shut.
