How To Be More Charismatic

lol.

 

Define my perspective. Tell me about my reference points.

Tell me about my circumstances and what you believe I chose.

 

It's beginning to look like you're making some unfounded assumptions about me. But I may give you the benefit of the doubt if you can define for me precisely what you believe I lack.

 It's your limits and lacks what we're talking about, not the precise definition of what you possess. But i said that before.

No benefit of doubt required, thanks.  As many others here, I did occasionally read your input on the other board.  I'm not prone to unfounded assumptions, as i find that a sloppy method. But you're assuming that people are more stupid than they really are.

My apologies, Synthetic. I should have clarified the difference between assessing celebrities I've never met, and people I have met.

 

Of course I could tell you which hot or rich people I consider to also be charismatic if I meet them in person. My ideas of charming may be different from others' ideas, tho. It would be easier to assess in a face to face situation, but I'd still be extremely skeptical about the third party agreement factor. 

Again, I thought I was quite charming before I became handsome instead of hot. My circle of influence became much smaller after I turned 35 ish.

The original point we were debating was that the author of the book claimed to have some magic charisma formula he was selling to people. And yet he was born rich. My argument was that I don't believe that coming from a person who was born rich.

Well you're talking about limits and lacks and not defining them.

 

eg: "HEY! You lack a personality!" That's a perfectly circular argument when you don't clarify what is meant by "personality."

 

When did I ever call anybody here stupid? Why would you think I assume something I've never said?

 Did I say you said? No. I wrote "assume".

It might depend on how many copies of his book he's able to sell.

On that note, I find it interesting that most people who make a living as motivational speaker salesman types are middle-class, reasonably attractive white men. I do think that they are able to captivate an audience, but I agree that trying to turn it into a magical formula is ridiculous. But clearly, it sells, and putting your posts into that context, I think that's definitely influenced by the aspirational image that the speaker is portraying.

The question is, is creating an aspirational image to draw people in to what you're selling a form of charisma or not?

Again, how would you know what I'm assuming if I did not say (write) it for you to see?

 

If you believe I'm assuming, and you've never seen me state the assumption verbally or in print...

...then you're the one who's assuming. 

 

My conclusion is, however, based on an assumption: the assumption that you don't have magic telepathic powers. lol

You'd make an ass out of you and me

 

btw now that you're not hot anymore, how hard has that been on the ego to not think everyone wants to fuck you anymore ?

Actually, knowing that people don't want to fuck me is a bit of a relief. Funny you should phrase it that way. 80% of the time I had no clue that people wanted to fuck me. Like I said, I thought I was charming or smthg.

 

What's hard on the ego is knowing that my intelligence and other skills that I'd worked so hard to build never meant a rat's ass to anybody. I was perceived as a whore. I rebelled with everything I had against being perceived that way. Now I discover in my old age that women aren't allowed to be anything but whores. 

 

Kinda makes me wanna go out and shoot things if ya know what I'm sayin.
