What does your GF/Significant other do with their lives?

my girl is going to be a teacher as well. and i'm

her: "i study so much and i still do bad sometimes"
me: "you can fix that shit if you just identify your problem and work at it"
her: "i've tried everything, it's just a fact that i do shitty sometimes"
me: "that the dumbest thing i've ever heard"
her: "OMG ARE YOUR SERIOUS I'M HANGING UP RIGHT NOW"

The best advice anyone ever gave me about women is never offer up advice or try to fix a problem unless they specifically say they want that advice. Just acknowledge her stress and move on if you want to avoid an argument.
 
My wife sells E&O (errors & omissions) insurance for a small family owned insurance company. She works her ass off and has her entire life so she knows what it takes to get shit done. She respects any decisions I make in regards to my work, money, family etc. I honestly couldn't ask for much more.

If a girl who you don't even live with yet is creating this much grief, I highly doubt it's gonna get much better when you move in together, get married and have kids. I'm not saying dump the broad....but man..you may want to dump the broad. You seem like a smart guy, and you're trying to reason with a woman that just can't let anything through her thick skull. You've been warned my friend...you've been warned.

Couldnt disagree with something more in my entire life.

How do you think Federer got to be the best in the world? thousands and thousands of hours of the most focused training you can imagine.

Check out this book by matthew syed Amazon, it basically breaks down exactly what makes a world champion like tiger woods and guess what? It wasnt some devine miracle bestoed by superman it was some of the hardest training you could imagine from the age of 5, for years and years. This practise dominated his entire life that he had to sacrifice his childhood. He couldnt even have a relationship, hence his crazy cheating ways today.

People love to be this ignorant as it justifies there lack of succes " Oh i would have been the best golfer in the world but i wasnt gifted enough" GTFO!

Nope. Wrong. There are 1,000s of players over the years that practiced just as much, if not more, than Federer and they are nowhere to be found. Anyone who plays high level sports knows that what I said before is a fact of life.

Everyone is born with different skills and abilities, and training and practice can only go so far when it comes to most skills, especially many physical skills and abilities. As a ping pong player Mr. Matthew Syed should know this.

For example differences in hand/eye coordination between different people can be drastic. This has all been documented and studied, and there's only so much you can do to increase such a skill.

The "work hard and you can do or be anything you want" mantra is bullshit. It only applies to some things, and it definitely does NOT apply to anything that involves physical abilities.

It's not his fault you were born with a small cock.

Listen, say what you want about a stay at home mom, but raising little kids and keeping a house a home is not an easy task.

What's that you say, "Hurr durr I make all da monies."? Good for you, whose raising your kids, cooking your meals, and sucking your cock? That's right it's that good for nothing, free loading cunt of a stay at home mom.

Congrats on being the dumbest fuck I had the displeasure of coming in contact with today. I was going to give the OP the award for saying that everyone is born equal (I guess those born mentally retarded just aren't trying hard enough), but you took the cake. Congrats!

My mom was a stay at home mom and did a pretty good job. What's troubling though is that it's going to be very hard to find a decent girl to be a stay at home mom. Cum dumpsters who fucked every dick in college are not suddenly going to turn into good girls.
 
Also, OP sounds just as dumb as girlfriend,

You don't believe people are born smarter than others? Lol, that is literally the dumbest thing I have heard in a while. People are not equal. If you haven't got as good genes as the next guy, you need to hustle.
 
Hey btw OP you have the chance of marrying your gf and then posting videos like this:

Think of it. The profit seems immense.

Agreed, it's a combination of both, practise on its own isn't enough. This is a similar false theory by the guy who claimed the only reason the Beatles were good was because they practised 10,000 hours. Plenty of no name bands have put in those same hours without even close to the same success.

Also, PROTIP: When women complain, they're often not looking for a solution. They just want to be heard and to be agreed with. The solution that you do offer them, they've probably already thought of so you're actually insulting them when you're trying to help.

Just bite your tongue, refrain from what you would say naturally and say, "It's OK, I believe in you and no matter what happens, we'll work through it together"

QFT, too bad your advice is so damn hard to do most of the time
 
Besides a nurturing home environment, good genes are the best gift you can give your child.

Intelligence is 70%-90% heritable depending on which studies you read (these are studies by actual scientists, not feel-good motivational gurus with books to sell).
Good looks are almost entirely heritable.

Being smart and good looking is no guarantee of a successful or happy life, but it certainly helps.

Whatever we want to believe, life is not fair, and the hands we were dealt by our parents before birth have a huge impact on our future.

My point? A number of my smart friends have made the mistake of marrying attractive but not-so-smart partners.

The result? Nice-but-dim kids.

Your choice of partner will be responsible for 50% of your child's genome. Personally, if I felt it was important to have someone who was willing to "make me a sammich", I'd hire some household help.
 
lots of fail in this here thread.

too many of you confuse smart with being able to remember well.

grad school != smart

also, Federer is human.. he will fuck up, he will get tired, he will lose to someone else. doesnt mean the other person is more talented though.

Did she lecture you about the dangers of oral sex? And is it true dentists can tell if you're keen on it?

Only if they can smell a sperm-odor coming out of your mouth. It is when your boyfriend eats too much meat, it ruins quality of sperm and gives nasty smell. Luckily Faceblogger is a vegetarian...

Depends on what your'e majoring in. You won't be able to get through a masters program in a competitive compsci/engineering program with just being able to remember well.
