I feel like I have a lot to say and make conversation about, but no one is ever around in real life when these moments hit, or the people I'm with either can't get it.
Not their fault, but I seriously feel like there ought to be people who find inventions, trying to create formulas or distinctions on behaviour.
I JUST WISH SOMEONE KEPT PRODDING ME FOR MY THOUGHTS ON THINGS.
I've had a few gay dudes in the past do this with me, asking me if I think I'm a good person or not.
But I wonder if there are any women who would be like this. I almost doubt it at this point.
I don't feel like acting confident and social will help me get this sort of behaviour out of someone, but if I don't go that route I'm balancing the line between mysterious and just straight up creepy.

There wouldn't. Women like to talk, not listen.
The correct solution would be to go gay and find yourself a qt husbando who is interested in your mind and what you think

whenever someone is intriguing in some way, i can just google about that in general and solve the problem
the trick in these times is the old 1001 arabian nights
you wanna stick, you gonna have to string along they candy asses with lies and tall tales

I disagree actually
Now that I think of it I've had a few older women in their late 30's often really enjoying conversation with me
I feel like this might be one of those things that only pays off in the long run.
And to be fair, my whole life I've never been about living that brash loud youth.
I've always been about that childish wonder and that old wise person's rationale/ cynicism.
Well? What are some nuanced ideas of yours?

I like making things and often I get frustrated with stuff other people make and try to apply it to what I do
One thing I see often is people making things mostly for themselves and not really seeing things from an audience perspective.
Often I judge my own shit by asking if I want this, and usually it's a plain "no"
And I hate most things people make cause they put so much effort into it but I still don't WANT to partake
Usually I try and figure out something about a process of creation (like rapid prototyping) or the integrity (or lack thereof) in the product
But really it comes down to what do people WANT
Is there a formula to make people WANT something
I used my past experience to gauge what kept my interest longest, and what got me hooked despite all these things being arbitrary, like games or hobbies with a win/ fail state
What's the first thing people say on the topic of people "wanting" something?
It's that they "want what they can't have"
But not entirely. I think to get someone intrigued, they have to succeed at least 30% of the time, and to stick with it they can't continuously reliably win, cause if they win all the time the times they lose without knowing how just feel arbitrary/ in the way/ like bullshit.
There's a sweet spot around 50 and 70% of the time "winning"
And it usually helps if there's someone else or some force of nature that can STOP you from getting what you want. Especially people, so in multiplayer games you have a smart opponent to think around.
The difficulty has to be something you can improve on. If you win some of the time, if you're able to try something and see yourself winning more, that is in our core essence what we love doing. Makes us feel powerful and shit, which is what the act of wanting leads us onto.
With this in mind you can quickly disregard certain game ideas or creations based on the general public's ability.
