I hate the chase frame - being applied to me. it is universal across domains, not just dating. it is demeaning. i won't say humilitating but it is demeaning and beneath a man of dignity and respect. So...
One can use tricks, techniques, core value improvement, presentation etc, chase frames, but often it just seems and feels like things cometo a standoff.
Now here's the twist.
I am growing in rental units- up to 20 and i acquired two lower income properties and too many people are being assholes and trying to make me chase them down for their rent. I have never had this happen this much in all my years- and i've been doing it about 8 years as in the last 3/4 months- and it loads my mental bandwidth.
So I am going to send out notices more regularily, that start the eviction countdown. They are all nice in person and most do eventually end up paying but it is the emotional bandwidth. I need respect.
It's the same with women. A man needs power to compell for what he's due. I'm not talking about being Nebuchadnezzar II or Ashurbanipal or Senerachib or anything like that but this got me thinking.
There may be people who only respond to fear.
There is that old question, is it better to be loved or feared? I don't think in those terms. that's too much thought for me. That's too binary and too categorical in general but I will say this- it seems like there are people who don't wake up and give your just due until they experience fear and pain or such specific forms of pressure- it is the only signal they recognize..
..and it seems sick and it forces one to be careful how one proceeds- to stay mechanical, within the bounds of law and order.
Still, one needs to often make certain people a bit afraid in order to bring harmony and order to the world. that is all i want- truth, harmony and order.
So it just seems that among renters and women there is just this (inherently sick and toxic) fear responder type, that only fear gets them moving and talking.
In movies and shows, the bad guys are always shown with guns- and shown being bad-- and there is that, but do they ever make a movie out of passive flakes and let downs and the other side of things? That is minnesota too btw. I am planning my mid-term escape from this sink hole of a culture.
