As long as the black dudes take the Filipinos and Vietnamese, and leave the Japanese and Chinese for white dudes, then that's perfectly fine.

I'd argue that someone isn't your friend until you've gotten drunk with him or her.

are you the denmark faggot who works on a hotel? had you detected any prostitution, escort activities on the hotel?
Jace Robinson
Why are you so eager to sexualize women of different race? Have you grew up being sexually so repressed that you think having sex with women of your own race is like having sex with your own mother?
Christopher Bennett
I have to throw out junkies and drunk guests with prostitutes on such a daily basis that I call myself half receptionist, half bouncer now.
So yes. Every time I go to work in the morning, I'm accosted by at least two prostitutes.

You know people meet their future wives/husbands on the internet, right?
Like it has literally resulted in thousands of marriages all across the globe.
Friendship in and of itself is a much easier hurdle to reach.
I even considered getting a tattoo of the map of the world on my back, and fill in the color of every country I've banged a woman in.
Parker Flores
Don’t worry
Jayden Johnson
Just like a marriage where the couple doesn't see each other except over the internet couldn't be considered marriage, a friendship not in grounded in reality can't be considered friendship.

Female have demand , male have no demand . male's life is shit

That's gross honestly. Why this obsession over such a trivial matter?

Why is it gross? Sex is a natural, healthy thing, and fun as hell. Traveling is also really fun. Girls are cute. It's a combination of all the best things in the world.

m8 you've been rambling for days about getting laid with that Viet girl
Now is not the time to be a hypocrite. You've experienced first hand how awesome sex is. Now imagine doing that all across the globe with tonnes of different, interesting women.

When will you realize that friendship is something that exists only in the heart, alongside something such as love?
You don't need a physical prescence to define that which you hold in your heart.
I think the Japanese think about it this way, too.
Josiah Turner
Don't confuse my flag with my person. I am not the one you are thinking of. There are more than a few germans regularly visiting the japanese thread.

Ok, then am I friends with my waifu because I hold her in my heart? Are we in love because I do love her? As you can see, this definition leads to conflict with normal reason. A relationship, whether friendship or marriage is a societal thing, just as the words defining them are grounded on the basis of society. Now, what is the defining property of friendship then? this is not my task to define, but I do think that you will have to at least see a person sometimes in reality to consider yourself friends.
Carson Diaz
Life-long exclusive monogamy is a natural, healthy thing. All other sexual activity is unnatural and unhealthy (and, what is more, morally and socially harmful).
Adrian Miller
Do you use voice chat option with steam?
Ethan Smith
So you think of friendship only as a social connection
You're wrong, because friendship is something that can be felt as well. It's a feeling, an emotion. And that emotion can carry over to internet relationships, too.
You must not spend a lot of time using social communication, it seems that way at least.
Adrian Ramirez
German koreaboo come to this thread every day and he is really annoying us
Christian Reed
at least, lacking ethical mind is barbaric
Christopher Gray
When will you realise that friendship is something that exists only in action, with real presence and deeds, just like love and virtue?
You don't need an ideal to define reality.
I think the Japanese think about it this way, too.
Alexander Watson

Robert Fisher
If you keep taking the world at face value, you'll never appreciate the beauty of this world, friend.
Benjamin Young
When playing a game that doesn't have its own in-built voice-chat, or when I only want to talk to my friends and not other players, I use Steam's voice-chat.

If you keep obsessing over fanciful abstractions, you'll never appreciate the truth of this world, which is the real source of all beauty and goodness.

Joseph Richardson
Do you live your life on the side of "money rules over all else"?
You know, the side where you disregard friends, family, girls just to get a well-paying job?
I wonder if our mindsets on this matter depend on which side of the game of life we stand, the financial side or the social side.
Eli Moore
it's not me.
thanks. I want to talk to other by VC. Do you have any recommendations?
James Miller
No.
Robert Martinez
It depends on who you want to talk to, and why. Also I guess it's really up to you and the other person what platform you use - there's no reason you can't use Steam to talk to people.
Henry King
I never see them on the street, but there's a lot of thai hookers in the massage parlors.
Explain to me why doing something fun and natural is unethical?
Gavin Rivera
take the world at face value and you'll never take anything from it
if you look at a painting in the museum, do you just see a drawing, or do you try to discern what the painting is trying to represent?
Life is about intrepretation. Friendship is no different.
What does "No." mean? You stand on the social side?
That can't be true. If you actually were seeking success in the social department you'd understand the point I was making. At least you should.

>I even considered getting a tattoo of the map of the world on my back
just so you know, Here in Japan, people who have gotten a tattoo tend to be viewed as Yakuza or something by some Japanese, especially old ones, so if you are going to come to Japan, I recommend that you should be careful of not exposing it to others.
Nathan Diaz
>everyone cares either about money or social life >not both >not neither >not anything else That is absolutely a false dichotomy.
Luis Wright
All decent people abhor tattoos. The problem in the West is rife indecency.
Leo Jones
but there's almost no christians in nippon either
Michael Bell
Everything you say is just an empty appeal to emotion.
If I look at an painting, I am seeing a drawing. (painting and drawing are just different words for the same thing after all) This doesn't mean that I can't "try to discern what the painting represents". In the first place I will have to see the drawing to discern anything from it.
Life may be about interpretation (or not), but that doesn't mean that other people have to accept your interpretation.
Brandon Myers
>painting and drawing are just different words for the same thing after all
That's not true Paintings are done with paint Drawings are done with pencil or pen
Ayden Adams
life only allows you to focus on one thing. either financial happiness or social happiness
if you're stupid enough to try to get both you won't reach either. i wish you the best of luck on that endeavor, my australian friend.
>Life may be about interpretation (or not), but that doesn't mean that other people have to accept your interpretation.
Yes, but if you discern a meaning from one painting and meet someone else that discerns the same meaning from that painting, that's a connection between you.
Friendship is about finding what connects you to the other person. If you just take the world at face value you will never find or appreciate such connections.
Christian Williams
>all-or-nothing thinking >obsession with some abstract state of "happiness" >cannot focus on knowledge, mastery, power, etc. Your philosophy is astoundingly childish.
In any event, back to the topic of friendship: A man is what he does. There is no friendship (nor love, nor anything else) without real action. On-line interaction is a shoddy approximation of real action in the real world, and cannot ever serve as a proper substitute.

I see.
>that's a connection between you. Or it isn't? Also, why do I have to meet him to have this connection? If I have to meet him, doesn't that mean you have to actually meet your internet-friends, for you to be real friends? >Friendship is about finding what connects you to the other person. Why? I don't think so. Also we aren't talking about what friendship is about, but what friendship is. If you want me to at least acknowledge your definition, at least try to properly define it. > If you just take the world at face value you will never find or appreciate such connections. Again the same bullshit. Maybe not everyone is like you? Maybe I can appreciate the world at "face value" whatever the hell that shit means.
You are basically throwing around empty words, and want me to agree with you on their basis. But I disagree.

it depends on what you consider a friend tb h
i agree with the burger that it's possible to be friends with someone on the internet, but like ""real life"" i'd need a year of social contact with that person before that certain trust can start building.
Chase Jenkins
It's really difficult to explain because it's something that developed naturally when you live life a certain way.
In the West, that is places like Germany, Europe, America, friendships aren't really that deep and so for your style of thinking it really isn't that far off the mark.
Asia's a bit different though with their honor code. The concept of friendship goes a bit into the self-awareness department that i'm trying to put into words for the past 10 posts or so but i'm finding it very hard to explain.
For now, we can agree to disagree.
Ryan Turner
When you argue with someone on here, there's a high chance he is a teenager.
>In the West ... friendships aren't really that deep This is an entirely unreasonable generalisation.
Samuel Foster
This is something I tend to forget. Thanks for reminding me.
Juan Rivera
There's different levels of friends imo
>people you know and get along with that you see out of routine (uni, work etc) but make no effort to contact outside of that >people you make an effort to talk to, but only talk about non-personal stuff with >people who you can talk personally with
This is a pretty simplified summary. Any of the above situations could count as "friends" even though there's largely different levels of closeness
Wyatt Nelson
They really aren't.
They used to be. But in the current milennial age, at least here in America, friendships are literally a joke
>"Hey let's get high" >"Sure xDDD"
your friend probably forgot you exist the next day
William Cooper
Do you hug your friends or would they think you're gay if you try?
