Do you think there's such a thing as luck, or do we create our own outcomes?

Of course luck does exist: does anyone chose in which family to be born? Poor or Wealthy? Loving or dysfunctional? The country and circumstances we are brought to Earth in the first place is purely luck. No one as any control over it 🤷‍♀️ (edited)

I don't know if there is such a thing as luck, but I prefer not to believe in it because I feel it removes control over my life and puts into the hands of something beyond me; I feel the same way about the fate vs. free will debate.

Yeah I think so, luck or chance or something of the sort. I think there are tons of near misses one way or the other that occur daily.

I think luck is purely a human construct to describe an occurance we either can't explain or know to be rare. Consequently, I do not think luck itself is an actual thing that happens in nature. Luck is also purely subjective. An occurance can be described as both lucky and unlucky by multiple observers. I think all effects have a cause including our own actions. We do not create our own outcomes, nature does. This of course is on the assumption we live in a deterministic universe, which I tend to believe.

Women complain that men don't express feelings.

Maybe the guy grew up in this kind of environment. Cries: Quit crying you wussy! Anger: Stop complaining and get back to work. On top of negative emotions slammed, positive emotions such as love and compassion can be used to manipulate them with phrases like, don't you love me? Emotions... read more

Is Ghosting someone ever valid?

For me ghosting someone is never valid similar to cheating it is always a choice , being ghosted makes you doubt and think things about yourself . I guess my definition of ghosting is when you're at least 3 days consistently chatting. Ghosting means never coming back to chat (edited)

Feeling guilt can trap you in a cycle

For example, I feel guilty about not messaging or texting someone back which can lead me to further waiting to message them which makes me feel even more guilty

不倫の心理を肯定するもの側の立場で読み解く

今回はあえて 「不倫を否定ではなく肯定的に分析」 する視点から、不倫がなぜ起きるのか、なぜ離婚ではなく“不倫”という選択になるのか、そして不倫という行為が当事者にとってどのような意味と価値を持っているかを、心理・社会構造・情動的ニーズの観点から掘り下げます。 ⸻ 📘 肯定的に読み解く「不倫」の構造と意義 ― なぜ人は既存の関係を持ちながら、他者と深い関係を築くのか? ⸻ 🧩 1. なぜ不倫は起きるのか? ✔️ 表面的な理由: • セックスレス • 価値観のズレ • 会話がない/冷めている • パートナーに愛されていないと感じる ✔️... read more

「不倫は普通」とする価値観をメディアが助長しているのか、それとも意図的に正当化しようとしているのか。

この問題は日本のメディア文化における“無意識の共犯性”と“視聴率至上主義”の問題に直結しています。 ⸻ 🔍 Q. 不倫ドラマは“不倫は普通”という価値観を助長しているのか? ✔️ 答え:Yes、間接的には大きく助長している • 視聴者に「共感」させる構造で描いている以上、感情的に肯定させる設計になっている。 • よって、「実際にやってはいけない」と理屈では分かっていても、  “感情的にはOKと思ってしまう”土壌を作っている。 ⸻ 🧠 では、なぜそんな構造になるのか? 1.... read more
