Re: Ojar as a Substitute Peaceandquiet: ummm I'm just here cause I was told there was going to be free food...... Two years later... sigh... I don't think they are really giving out free food...are they?
Re: Ojar as a Substitute chaotic: There will punch and pie...
Re: Ojar as a Substitute snkpack: I've achieved most of my financial and career goals, but I've made no progress in my romantic goals. I want a boyfriend. Do I have a boyfriend? No. Am I capable of getting a boyfriend? Of course. I just haven't been putting myself out there because I'm using Ojar as a replacement for the flirting and ego boost that I should be getting by dating and meeting people. I guess it doesn't help that none of my friends want to go out cause they're now all married and pregnant. So my social life is pretty much "Ojar" at this point. And no offense to you guys, but that depresses me.
Re: Ojar as a Substitute Topaz: Maybe it's time to expand your social network. I know that your life is probably pretty different than mine based on your location, but have you considered...
1. Political activism/volunteering.
2. Getting involved in local arts activities, like the museum. I am a volunteer usher for the world music institute. Not only do I see lots of concerts, I meet lots of other musicians and music lovers.
3. Joining a church or a cult (ha ha just kidding)
Those activities have worked for me. I've met a lot of new people, including people I've dated.
Let's brainstorm, Snkpack. You can do it, but you have to put yourself in the mindset of possibility and not in the one that says "nothing's working."
Re: Ojar as a Substitute C-Note: Doing those things involve getting out the house. That's a turn off to me. I cuddle up to my Ojar in the comfort of my nice warm bed with the TV on across the room and my Pepsi on the night stand. This is gonna be a hard social activity to beat.
