Better at Relationships with Women Part 2
--
So I'm better at women in a relationship context. What do I mean exactly?
So things are working out much better, and I can see what is and isn't happening, and these relationships have clarity, and I can steer them to some extent and negotiate them and size them and communicate about them with some comfort. I'm really pretty happy about this as you would expect.
My modest set of experience means that I think I can see patterns in dating, shagging, being friends, having meaningful relationships and getting close to women. I think these are western patterns. Some part of these feels cultural, but a lot of it feels like a good computer program for trust construction over a lossy channel.
So I was very intolerant about not knowing about what things meant when I was dating. I had trouble not knowing answers to questions like 'Does she like me and which way?'. I was kind of nervous about it and I'm sure it showed and steered things badly.
Data points let me get some idea of what things meant, by figuring it out in retrospect, and this comparison stuff has let me build a tolerance for these questions through realising things about communication, specifically about what you are dealing with in terms of the communication medium, which I have not heard or seen a satisfactory explanation of. Mine looks like this:
"The communication channel for dating starts small, is lossy, garbles messages and breaks if any message is too much bigger than the last one."
There is a lot of depth about what I mean here, that you have to understand that capacities and limitations of the channel in order to ever have a tolerance for it that is necessary for a composure and a competency.
There are some ways specifically that you need to parse information from this channel that mean that you can't really reasonably be very upset or pleased about signals that you get right away, you can't often parse the last few signals you got, you can only parse early ones in the chain.
I think the parsing of this information is specifically a Type 1 Context Sensitive grammar in the Chomsky heirachy. These are the ones that are hard to parse because you need to keep a kind of state in your parser.
