Update about my last rant: https://devrant.com/rants/11157064/...

I gave up with the idea of ever getting back together with my ex, accepted that it's over and moved on. I genuinely wish her the best in life.

Anyways, I found an Indonesian woman and we're officially dating now. It happened when I was with my bro on a trip to Indonesia almost 2 months ago.

At first I was hesitant because it could be more of an interest for my passport but I figured that she's interested in me instead because when texting she almost never initiated. I kept texting her every 2-5 days. Now that we're together she does it everyday by herself.

She's literally perfect and definitely a massive upgrade from my ex in every way possible. Same values, same goals, same hobbies, same views and same religion. She's emotionally intelligent. She's physically a 10/10, too. I'm surprised that I could "catch" someone like her tbh.

Only issue right now is the language barrier. She understands some English but not good enough to hold a conversation. She works on it with Duolingo everyday.

Writing this as we're sleeping in call.

    @jestdotty Haha no need for that. She is capable of having her own original thoughts.

    @-ANGRY-STUDENT- well to be more blunt the whole thing stinks

    and if you have such low self esteem, you'd be a likely target of romance scams

    if attention from a chick makes you feel so lucky and you get smitten so hard it will be difficult to rationally assess situations. your gut is clearly uneasy

    in romance scams, or any kidnapping or working people scams, they will set you up with someone whose nervous system is as similar to yours as possible. this means they mirror your sense of fashion, mannerisms, and obviously values and opinions. which is why I suggested that

    feeling lucky means you have low self esteem and you don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth. your previous post suggests dismissiveness towards emotions and emotional maturity, which suggests you will have a habit of making emotional choices since you can't account for your emotional biases due to dismissing awareness of emotional motivations as being not "for you". so you're a targetable guy for scamming

    How’s the gym going by the way? Reached your 100kg bench already?

    @jestdotty attention from women doesn't make me feel lucky and I don't have a low self esteem either.

    Idk where you got that info from lol.
    Before this chick I had a huge roster of chicks who I was regularly disqualifying/removing from my list.

    She checked everything I wanted in a future wife from my list.

    I'm rather surprised that I catched a 10/10 because I see myself rather in 6-7/10 looks wise.

    How's your progress going?

    @-ANGRY-STUDENT-
    Good! Keep it up as this remains beyond any relationships

    Still grinding the 3 plates, I’ll try in January. 3 months of being sick repeatedly didn’t help though 😟

    @Tounai You're sick because Rust is growing inside you. Just as the language, this rust tumor does everything different's and you're fucked. Even ChatGPT can't save you because it's Rust. Trust me, i'm a doctor actually.

    I'm happy for you. Yeah, foreign people are interesting somehow. It's the differences that attract huh. We had them as slaves for a while but I have no idea how Indonesians look like. You don't really appreciate it when you own it. J/k maybii.

    @jestdotty what did he do wrong to you? :P It must've been terrible :P

    @retoor Go a bit slower on alcohol and drink a glass of water for each glass of alcohol you drink, this will prevent a bad headache tomorrow
