Do You Think This Is A Poor Dating Tactic

Why didn't generals in WW1 think of better tactics than rushing their soldiers toward enemy trenches?

Before WWI the last war in Europe was the Franco-Prussian war 1870- 1871 43 years earlier. Military hardware had moved on Artillery, machine guns, rifles. and aircraft (tank later ) But tactics hadn’t caught up. All the previous ways of conducting a battle were outdated. The Generals didn't really have a clue what was going on at the front as they were a long way behind front lines. Repeating the same mistakes over and over again. New methods were tried mining under each over but never had the desired effect. The trenches ran right across Europe from the north sea to the Swiss border so flanking manoeuvres were out. It's not until combined use of Air, artillery, tanks, and infantry that they got their act together did things begin to change. The first time was the battle of Cambrai in 1917 it had limited success but now they were beginning to learn about the effectiveness of combined arms.I think it was the first Blitzkrieg.The Battle of Cambrai, fought in November/December 1917, proved to be a significant event in World War One. Cambrai was the first battle in which tanks were used en masse In fact, Cambrai saw a mixture of tanks being used, heavy artillery and airpower. Mobility, lacking for the previous three years in World War One, suddenly found a place on the battlefield The attack started at 06.20 on November 20th 1917. The Germans were surprised by an intense artillery attack directly on the Hindenburg Line. 350 British tanks advanced across the ground supported by infantry – both were assisted by an artillery rolling barrage that gave them cover from a German counter-attack. The bulk of the initial attack went well. The 62nd Division (West Riding) covered more than five miles in this attack from their starting point. Compared to the gains made at battles like the Somme and Verdun, such a distance was astonishing.Bit of trivia. What do the colors flying on the lead tank represent ?

What do you think about online dating?

Before I start, I'm happily married and not considering online dating for myself at all! I'm just curious as to other peoples opinions of it. It seems like more and more people nowadays, especially older people, are into online dating to help find people. Does this seem like something that people actually would do? Maybe I'm just old fashioned, but I can't help but feel that online dating is a huge scam! Not only is it dangerous, but in all honesty, how can you get to know someone online?? I guess it has the pros of being totally open as to the intentions of each person, but I still can't help but feel that online dating is just....strange. However, my sisters are the opposite and think that online dating is a good idea for older singles.

So, I want to know what others feel about online dating. Is it okay? Is it weird? Thoughts?

Why are there so many old Western men dating young Filipina women in the Philippines?

They're a form of sexual predator, although not the worst type by far.Here's the typical story: a man in his late 40s onward (I've seen as old as 80s) comes to the Philippines (or Thailand, or Cambodia, or...). He is divorced, or plans to be. He thinks that women in his home country are terrible harpies, unfit for dating or marriage. He has been hurt by these women of his own culture many times, and has decided to break free and make his own way, with women who truly respect men. These women just happen to be 1/4 (or 1/6, or 1/8...) his own age and in desperate straits.The reality is that these men are usually the bottom of the barrel: untalented, unintelligent and undesirable. But not in their own opinion - they are deep, deep into Dunning-Kruger territory. It all boils down to self-interest, and performing whatever mental gymnastics are necessary to convince themselves that it's OK for an old man to have sex with girls in their late teens.Why are there so many? The fundamentals are simple. There is a massive income disparity between Western countries and the Philippines: a poor man in the US or UK is quite rich in the Philippines. There is free flow of information: it's easy to find out you can go take advantage of poor girls across the globe. They're allowed to do it by locals. And, there is no shortage of assholes in the world.As to why they're not the worst type of sexual predator out there, the simple answer is that many at least abide by legal age requirements (18+) and, happily, the women they choose are often smart enough to drain away enough money to improve their own lives. The smartest get their education and material needs (car, house) then move on to dating younger men.Here are a couple of fun phrases all Filipinos know:Matandang mayamang madaling mamatay (MMMM) - rich old man, ready to dieDOM - Dirty Old ManIn short, Filipinos are aware that these old men aren't particularly great, but they make no efforts to chase them away either, knowing that the DOMs are adding money to a rather poor economy.

Will it be hard to date if i join the Air Force?

As a USAF veteran I can tell you that most people have a regular work schedule and a fair amount of personal time. Many career fields and assignments are like regular 9-5 jobs (well, 7-3 jobs...). You will normally have a fair amount of personal time. You can get married and while there are challenges to being a military family lots do it and find it very rewarding.

Guys will be interested in dating you, though there are hazards to dating within your own military organization (squadron or work center, etc) and some will be off limits such as your supervisors and people of higher rank.

More likely you will be dating among the civilian populace.

When would be the best time to stop playing hard to get?

Ok I would say....after many years of trying to figure this out
That playing hard to get never works for either a guy or a girl, if this is their dating tactic

However actually being hard to get is another thing, people are attracted to other who have interesting lives have friends and are busy doing their own thing, dont you think? This is what hard to get really means.
But playing hard to get is always a little false and as soon as you start dating the other person realises that you aren't what they bought into and so invariably it won't last.

So if you like someone don't play hard to get, just live your life do your own thing and let things happen in their own time and I guarantee you, you'll be far happier!

Good luck

Do rich girls love poor guys?

I'm going to answer from personal experience. Absolutely.For some reason, I thought it was romantic and it didn't turn out so well.That being said, MONEY burns. Love lasts forever. People last forever. So, money shouldn't stop love. HOWEVER.....A rich girls may not wish to date a poor guy or a guy that will never be rich. Some girls are accustomed to nice homes, clothes, parties and cars and that is very important to them. They would never give it up for love.Another great question is...Why would you want to be poor? It's one thing if you are a missionary or someone who has given everything up to serve others. It's another thing to have a poverty mentality. Why can't a poor guy become rich through hard work or good fortune? He can.Tons of topsy turvy romances exist...they work out and some don't.Go for what you want...ANYTHING is possible.

What is the best strategy for finding a girlfriend?

You don’t find a girlfriend. You get a life.You don’t find a girlfriend. You get active big time in your passion.You don’t find a girlfriend. You go and engage girls as you go and do your activities. Never, ever, work around girls but do what you always do, and when you meet girls you engage as you walk on your path.You don’t find a girlfriend. You attract them because they go for certain traites, and values, and so your behaviour will attract them.You don’t find. You attract. Period.The era of the digital world has now opened doors for guys but if you’re shit offline you’re going to be shit online too because of many reasons…Offline as an exampleHasn’t got a life.

You’ll get stuck real fast and run out of what to do, say, and so on because your mind is over thinking too much to impress girls and on what to do.So you need to do lots of drills, in approaching girls, engaging them and learn not to impress but to attract, and that’s what a lot of guys don’t learn early enough.It needs to be done while living your life, because you’ll cross path with many girls, who are already on your path while..you’re doing your passion, job, interest etc.

Guns to protect against government tyranny -- Is it an out of date fantasy?

I'm in a strange position here.

While I believe guns should be legal-I do not believe automatics should be for the reason you stated.

However, neither do I believe any armament the citizenry can attain will match that of the government.

I see handguns as an equalizer. An 80 year old woman can't beat a 20 year old man if he breaks into her house and tries to kill her. But she can easily shoot him.

However, she won't be able to use an automatic weapon either, so guns seem to be the middle ground.

If people hope to solve gun violence by outlawing guns they're sadly mistaken. Murder and violence existed prior to guns and even weapons being invented, so outlawing guns will only disarm law abiding citizens and make it that much harder to protect themselves against those who kept their guns.

If a mugger holds a gun to your head and you've given him your wallet but he still holds it there-do you really think the police will make it there in time?

So my theory is ban automatics because they're not only impractical (there's no actual use for them a citizen could possibly have) and because they're also far more dangerous than handguns.

Should stricter laws be put into place for handguns? Of course they should! Only rifles and handguns in my opinion should be legal.

Guerrilla warfare???

From my fellow Americans?

You DO KNOW you have to have training in it first...right?

It's not as easy as just hiding out and shooting.

Besides, the vast majority of Americans would very quickly submit to an ACTUAL authoritarian structure. They've been psychologically primed for it for a long time now.

Read up on Erich Fromm, Eric Hoffer, Phillip J. Zimbardo and Lt. Col. Dave Grossman to get an idea of what I'm talking about.

Will my husband (separated) be jealous if I start to date?

Long story short, my husband left me for his ex-girlfriend 4 months ago. Up until 2 weeks ago I was trying to win him back from her and grovelling at his feet. I have since stopped talking to him completely, he texts me everyday asking to take or see our son (I don't let him anymore because of threats to keep him and many other reasons, he is to get a court order to see him which he has yet to do). I have started to see someone this past week, we aren't dating, but we're hanging out type thing. I know my husband will find out, will this make him jealous? Even though he is seeing his old girlfriend? How do husband usually react when they find out their wife is dating again, even though they are to? I know I'm completely jealous of his ex how she has MY husband, but again, he left me, not the other way around.
