do women hate it when a guy "talks a lot"

I've been trying to improve my social skills, and I'm just naturally a talker about literally anything. I've definitely noticed most dudes are stoic AF and most of my friends tell me the same thing , just keep it to a minimum, etc. Now they all get laid and I'm just sitting here with nuthin so I'm inclined to believe them.

I think a lot of women and even dudes tbh mark me as gay for it and combined with a softer voice I'm probably not doing myself any favors. Ofc I let the other person speak and have a proper back and forth, but I just like to talk and see whats up with people - I'll ask em about their whole lives

But like how sad is that, so basically I have to be a rock that just chimes in with one liners once in a while?

Even writing this much is apparently "an essay" - like god forbid I try to give someone the full picture, texting in 5 word blips is the move these days.

Is this decent UI/UX for my portfolio site?

Just FYI I'm not a designer but was hoping to get input from you guys. I'm just a developer trying to create a personal portfolio site.

My logic is that I have a very short amount of time to make a first impression so I would hit them with the hero section , and the 1,2,3 cards animated to fly up and then fixed

All the buttons would just link to various sections of the home page itself, I kinda wanna keep people on page and not hopping around crazy amounts.

Does this work in your estimation?

The projects viewer is an interactive section and it would be a spot to click on project titles and view my little "report" on them essentially in the side panel / empty space.

I'm very torn - on what to do about contacts , on one hand it closes out and finishes the site nicely with a CTA and doesn't end abruptly on an about paragraph, on the other hand , it feels like a waste of space -- very tempted to not have a contacts button at all and just put that in the about button spot - and have it come with you page to page in the header nav so you can always see it and just have an About/Projects button.

Obviously these are not final graphics lol

was this a womans version of approaching?

- Girl across the stretching area sees me doing some quad stretches

- moves over next to me for absolutely no reason, plenty of open spaces with good corners and views.
- starts doing these weird yoga stretches , including the arched back touching the toes thing

I just kept stretching and walked away. I stared at her once while I was cleaning up and she was doing her wild stretches. Or is this just attention seeking?

Ideally ladies who could offer any insight.

is there a way to be notified if a class goes from closed to waitlist?

title pretty much says it all , I know that getting on a waitlist , they'll update you if you get in. But I was wondering if anyone had a way to be notified if a class goes from closed to having even one spot open on the waitlist - would help a lot rather than checking every day

I’ve been on a spiritual journey and I’ve really been seeing the error of my past ways and how interconnected all this really is. Even if it doesn’t matter , I don’t want to contribute to it.

But I have no idea where to begin , I’m thinking declutterring my home and minimalism and only keeping what I absolutely need. But as far as actual environmentalism , idk. Join a club? Plant a tree?

Any help is appreciated!

This is a recent development and I can't believe how far I've come from my cookie cutter religious days

But I'm genuinely convinced that there is some kinda experiment being ran here. The goal of this existence seems to be raise your vibration positively as much as you possibly can, if you stay attached to the material, you reincarnate here - and I think this happens instantly too - you follow the light, and that light takes you to a literal birth of some new child and you are born again. That soul gets recycled for more purification until it eventually gets there.

This puts all of Jesus's turning the other cheek and meekness and love first into perfect context and why soooo many quotes and dialogues keep harping "if you have even an ounce of the material world in your heart , ur ngmi bro" , thats why being good matters so much or else u keep getting trapped here, the demons are already here - there isn't anywhere lower to go

Why would the monad/"the source" create all these seperate faces souls and spirits of god in the first place? Why create these filters and processes? What is THEIR angle in doing this?
