CONGRATULATIONS, Gaius1! My best wishes also to your wife and your newborn girl. Thank you for letting us know about this happy occasion -- I feel honored that you posted it here. I remember when my girl was born; it was the proudest moment of my life.

Dear all

My family and friends are asking about this weird third name I gave my little girl

The wife and girl are in excellent shape.

But, sleep... ahhh... sleep...

Helena is not weird at all. It's a beautiful name.

Dear Sonshi

Yep, possible too.


I am sorry for the confusion, and trying to be cleverish.
The more proof to better speak frankly.


'Sofie Eline SONSHI ... family name.'

I got myself into a world of trouble in selling myself into committing her to being brought up with those principles, but I'll give it my best.

sincerely,

Gaius1,

Wow, this is quite an honor. I'm speechless and Sun Tzu would have been proud. Let it be known Sofie Eline Sonshi will always have a place here.

Speaking of a world of trouble, trouble usually finds us in life anyway so you teaching her Sun Tzu's principles will only help strengthen and protect her. It is the job of all parents to do so.

(My own daughter just had a birthday this week; they grow up too fast.)

So should I retreat and wait for how things will turn out? However the 48 laws of power says that you shouldn't isolate yourself in a "fortress" like what I am doing now. What will Sun Tzu do in this kind of situation?


Sort out your own feelings before attempting any moves.

What is your goal? Love or seduction?

Seduction is about providing pleasure, not love.

Athena's_Chosen:

Don't retreat, attack indirectly: find another girl. You may think this is sleazy or immoral but seriously it will work. If this girl is interested in you and wants your attention she will be upset that its going to someone else.

I have that same problem. It seem to complicate things big time.

I have found that if you want someone to love you for who you are, you can't try to sway their emotions about it one way or the other. And you need to accept that:

1) You shouldn't decide to deeply care about someone until you are in an established relationship with them (friendship or dating)

2) You should never show that you care more for them than they care for you (the general answer to the question "should I?" is no, but not always), because it avoids awkward moments and feelings, which do prevent the relationship from growing.

3) You shouldn't try to impress her. But you do need to try to be the kind of person that you want to be, without bragging or showing off good deeds or talents.

4) If you want to do something special for her then you need to make sure that it does not violate the previous three statements.

5) Do NOT rush things, and do NOT try for all or nothing. Unless it is your only option.

6) the most important- AVOID DRAMA
