Where do you find the time?

Of course, I can find time for things like this:

Scripts work unless people are aware of the script. They're probably more important for people more autistic, and less important for those less so. I generally don't like talking much, so that requires the other person to want to carry a larger amount of the talking burden. I pair well with talkers.

As I mentioned, I browse Imgur and share interesting GIFs with my client.
I used 5 today!
I also ask questions there that I don't know where to start researching, after struggling with Google.

I only saw the Facebook post when I went to post a picture of my brother.
I saw the other guy's post for the same reason.
Someone complained about women only agreeing to go out because they want free food and they plan on never talking to them again, so I mentioned my experience, and some woman responded "So what if you were a starving student, it was overpriced, and she never talked to you again?!"

When that guy and others complained about women responding with one-word or short answers women replied "I can do that because some guys do it sometimes!"

One woman on Imgur said "If he is interested, he will carry the conversation."

Arguably, my normal conversations are a script:
How are you doing?
How was your week?
Do you have any fun weekend plans?
How do you like [app]?
What do you do in your free time?
What do you want to be doing in 5 years?

I just hoped that by getting better questions I would have more women participating, but I asked one lady "Have you traveled much? Or do you want to?" and she replied "Hello."

I never reply to women who reply to my first message, a question, with "Hey," and I never hear back.

A meal is a cheap price to pay for an opportunity at romance. I once flew to Colorado Springs for a "first date", and then to Mexico City for the 2nd date.

Spent a couple days in Atlanta with a gal once.

A local meal is a very cheap price to pay for an opportunity at romance, and it's incumbent on the man to pay it. The importance of gender roles are equally important, but they are not the same, and individual men are more expendable than individual women. Women know this, which is why they rate 70% of men as below average attractiveness.

I think that Mom totaled my Accord.

I drove back to Show Low to see some clients and haul another load.
Mom and my brother were just in an accident.
That is all that I know, so maybe it wasn't the old lady who cannot drive far or at night and missed a cardiology appointment this morning because she got lost, but maybe it was.
I guess that the car was damaged, my sister said she is driving them home.
The car may finally be retired.
