That’s a glass half full or empty mindset bro

Nah, not exactly. But I have gotten to meet some very shitty people, who have essentially treated me like shit. When you've had to deal with something like that you'd become very careful too. A lot of people seem nice, until someone gives them an excuse, a couple of lies, and then they convince themselves it's okay to treat someone like shit.
The way I explain it is, the probability of trust is spread thin amongst a lot of people, but high amongst one
And playing alone is basically suicide
Even with a guide
It’s suicide because
You’re increasing your chances of winning
Because you can always at least knock out the person who’s alone
That's a terribly sad world-view, isn't it? What happened to "humanity"? What happened to basic support system? Is that how you'd want to live? With your crosshair at another person, at all cost? If you truly believe that's the only possible way, then something is seriously wrong. (I'm intentionally not saying "wrong with you", but in general.) What's next, hunt each other like dogs?
Most people speak of "winning", but that's not what they mean. They want it all. That's a ridiculous goal.
I don't agree with that view. I think it's ridiculous.
It’s just game strategy
You realize that life isn't a zero-sum game, right?
Yea exactly, which is why you have to think about things like game strategy
Real life experience has always outweighed any game strategy IMLE.
I think it's very concerning that an increasing number of people seem to think that having a decent life means you must ruin any number of other people's life. That is an extreme sad way of thinking about it and arguably an inhuman way.
Totally agree 100%
I’ve written about the whys & how we got here in history. More empathy is needed.
Actually, to add on a separate topic: sure, being together is better/nicer iff things are working out. My point is that with todays views and (misguided) opinions, the chance of things working out are very different from, say, 50 years ago. And I truly believe that being with the wrong person can be devastating for anyone. So it's not something to force yourself (not meant to imply you specifically) into.
Yea it depends on if u want kids or not ig and if u believe that you live in in your code or not
