Taking dating advices...

[Pegasus]

I was just thinking about some advices I got on ENA a while ago and I'm currently questioning myself about them. So.....would you:

 

1) Would you take a dating advice on ENA?

2) How do you determine if it's a worth advice?

3) What do you know about dating success of people giving advices here?

1) yes, even though i mostly contribute

2) read it. evaluate it. if it sounds plausible to my life, try it.

3) just based on their responses pretty good

Hey Peg,

I think, like anything else you read on eNA, the poster is basing their advice on their own personal experience. I sometimes find that looking for advice on here (in any forum) is risky because you're not going to get a one-size-fits-all answer. You really need to follow your gut and what works for you. I think I, at least, tend to gravitate towards the advice that is aligned with what my gut was giving me before posing the question.

1) no, but it many people tells me the same I would think about is there something i could learn, but I don't listen..as we all don't - we need someone to talk to just to make a decision by ourself

2) when it sounds vise and logical and when I feel the vibe with some poster (some posters opinions i value a lot here)

3) how many normal therapists do you know? i don't know many.lol

we're all smarter when we can help someone else because we see a situation in a diff light.

and of course wise enough to help if we can relate

I'd take my own. But that's a bit unfair because IMO I know it's true (or really believe it to be true as I've based it upon what I have seen happen and work out with my own eyes and experiments).

As far as someone elses, I'd definitely take the advice of guys like PocoDiablo, Relationship Coach, heloladies, boo, etc into consideration.

i'd consider anybody advice on here. but like the above stated, mine is the best to me. why? cause i was there. i've experienced it. which has been a lot up to this point. i don't do experiments though. i just try.

Lots of the advice here is pure gold. Some on the other hand is pure crap. Guys like DC (haha, should of kept it DiggityDogg I liked it better) usually have good advice and if you are willing to take it you'll be better off. When I first came to this site I was heart broken, lacked self esteem, and had no clue how to talk to women. Well I did but I couldn't do it consciously. I was shown the light from this place and since I have game oozing out of every pour. The fact that I'm a good person and that helps because I use these tools for good rather than evil.

 

I mean after my OENA ex I thought I'd never find another girl, well after a few months I did and had a relationship for a year with a very pretty girl that didn't work out due to many of my mistakes. I've learned from them and since (less than 2 months) I've gone out with 5 girls, slept with one, and made out with more than I can remember already. Now I'm talking to a extremely pretty girl whose 4 years older than me and seems to have a huge heart. All guys will be better off with this advice. DC's guides, Boo's new post and anything HL21 has posted is gold. I'm looking to get up there with these guys one day.

1) Would you take a dating advice on ENA? I would take it into serious consideration if it was about a very specific question - like "who should pay for our vacation" rather than "how do I convince him to like me enough to ask me out?" But with things like "should I ask him out - I think he's shy" I don't think one person's advice deserves that much weight but looking at the consensus of those who respond - if there is one - could give some helpful clues.

2) How do you determine if it's a worth advice? a variety of factors - age of the person, whether they are happy with their own dating experiences or relationship, etc

3) What do you know about dating success of people giving advices here? I am sure many would say I was unsuccessful because I am unmarried. I don't measure it that way - if I meet someone who, like myself, has been dating and in relationships for many years and seems, on the whole, positive about the opposite sex, feels that his/her relationships were positive for the most part, feels desirable - that works for me! Often if a woman is unmarried it's presumed that no one proposed to her or wanted to marry her. In my case that happens to be untrue a few times over. Having said that I would not feel comfortable giving advice about marriage unless I could analogize it to a close friendship (if the issue was similar) or a close friend of mine had gone through something similar in her marriage.

I love hearing success stories!

I take advices from guys that have what I want. Taking from others seems pretty lame because if you can't make if for yourself, how could you give a good advice.
