Why play mind games that might make the dude who was thinking "OMG she Rux0rz" think "OMG dat girl is da Sux0rz, I sm done with her, I will find me some girl that will give me some real feedback."

If you are a girl and you are reading this, it might not be too late to not become the "Sux0rz " in the eye of the guy who really cares for you, Dial 1-800-LINUXATOR for advice about not playing mind games with the guy of your dreams. ;)

Obviously she doesnt care as much about you as you think...but there are plenty of fishes in the sea


You might be right, but I bet you that there lots and lots of girls out there that blow their chances with a very nice guy because they make themselves misunderstood by playing hard to get + mind games, a lot of girls like to feel that the guy is after them, but the reality that a lot of girls make you feel as if you are a stalker or something, I know I didn't appreciate it at all.

I am just so disgusted with girls so far, I have made my final decesion to spend the rest of my free time DJing and that's the only thing that can take my mind away from thinking about girls.

And once I release my first complete Album It's going to be called Trance Open Sourced and It won't be copyrighted AT members will have complete free acess to it.

After 24 years of marriage, I can safely say they seem to think we can read their minds. Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus spells it all out very simply, concisely and accurately, no matter what detractors may say.

Honestly, women can't seem to just flat out tell you what's bugging them, you're supposed to "just know". Their body language is enough to clue you in, as far as they're concerned. Oh, and once they do decide to discuss a problem, they're not particularly interested in "solving" that problem, they just like to vent, so save your breath, and keep your solutions to yourself


Truth. I've been married 17 years. I've learned that when something is bugging my wife she just wants to talk about it not have me try to solve it. If she is looking for a solution she will directly ask me "what do you think I should do?"

all of these comments have given me a better understanding. But remember this is not a thread about how much I hate women but to discuss different ideas on how to approach a relationship without letting simple thing as games or hints ruin it. Also some ideas on why the women who do this..well. do it. Keep your ideas coming. It is getting interesting.

...directly ask me "what do you think I should do?"

Wow, and how often does THAT happen?

The last time my wife asked me that, it was about changing jobs. After hearing her bitch about the job she was in, day after day for months, an old boss asked her if she'd like to fill a position with them, albeit a lower one. My wife asked what she should do? I said, without hesitation, take the new job! After she took it, she moaned about how she had "demoted" herself, and continually second guesses that decision.

Another friend recently offered her a job at a prestigious company near here. She asked me what she should do? I flat out told her there was NO WAY I'd offer my opinion one way or another. Fooled me once...

FCK NO!!

I am talking about making everything without even using samples at all.
The bill was $ 650 for some of the equipment only!!!
It's true equipment trance nothing else will be used , except for a computer with a simple sound editing software to record from my equipment.
And I will be doing some live mixes at a couple of local places once I get my skills up a bit :D

Women don't think they're playing games with you. They feel that if you care about them you'll notice the "little things" like maybe she'll mention she likes a certain perfume. You hear it and think "OK, whatever, the game's on. " She thinks if you care about her you'll remember and by the perfume, either as a no-reason gift or for an occasion. You, on the other hand, wonder why she won't tell you what she wants for her birthday, or Christmas, or whatever. Then you go get something that you think she'll like, and she's kind of disappointed that you didn't know or remember that she mentioned 2 months ago how much she likes that certain perfume.

LOL my wife did that. Complained about her job endlessly, then asked me what should she do. I said quit, what else? She didn't listen to me anyway (naturally) and is happy she stayed, but appreciated that I let her b1tch to me for so long.

Personally, I've like music similar to "trance" for over 30 years. Ever heard of Eno?


Looked him up , got this video is that eno ? I don't see how it resembles electronice music such as Trance ?
I think I got the wrong video, are you sure that's eno ?

Here is a guy using the same equipment that I have, what he is playing is not % 100 of how I like trance , but he is close enough. video

The idea that us guys HAVE no hidden meaning is lost them, because girls do it, they assume we do too.

This pretty much sums up the issue entirely.

Eno did a lot of experimental stuff. No vocals in Music For Films or Music for Airports. Could he reproduce those "tunes"? I gotta wonder. I think the synths used back then had tubes in 'em!


I am TBH into so many electronic music types ranging from Trance to Techno, it really depends on why am I playing ? Is it to celebrate something ? Is it to relax ? Is it going to be for a live audience ?
Every single situation has a different Trance state for it
.
For example here is another sample of one of the best Trance tracks I have heared till now, something like this I would like to hear in the morning to get me going, it's in this WRC video I found on google.

Here is a link to KORG for the synth & mixing machine I use it's called the KORG Electribe EMX-1, I have to tell you it's worth every green buck of those 500 I have spent for it. link
Check out the mp3 section it shows you samples made completley using the Electribe EMX-1 try Epic it's a trance demo that comes with it.

Now i know not all women are like this but it sure seems like alot are from personal experience and from observation in real life not tv.

My view is this: its not that we dont get it..its just we dont want to put the effort of gettting it.I look forward to everyones opinions and ideas especially from women.

very often when women are direct we're then accused of being castrating biatches.

Maybe she can get the hint that she's not entitled to my stuff anytime she wants.

I think its only the case when she is subtle thus leading the guy on. She continues to be subtle and eventually has to be direct, thus making her look like a biatch.

I hate to sound superficial, but invest in your looks for the short term and seek ways of becoming rich in the long term if you want to attract women.

Young women have the same quality as young men, that they're both looking for good-looking partners. I can't tell you how many times I heard a group of girls going out to nightclubs looking for "cute guys".

Guys who have no problem getting laid don't even bother trying to understand women. Women spend time trying to understand them and complain to their friends.

Work out, dress nice, put on some cologne, and have fun while you're still young.
