"Go all out. Cause when it goes wrong, it can go real wrong, and that's fucking awesome!" This is a man who knows how to live life to its fullest, and I have to respect that.
I've been such a long time fan, but i stopped watching the daily after i got out of SC2 during late heart of the swarm. Holy shit i forgot how funny Sean is. Everytime, the guy just get to the heart of the point so genuinely, and in such an entertaining way. Thanks for making videos dude, you inspire me to improve every time!
+IHateWhatOthersLove Same for me. I have not played starcraft for over 2 years and I am not interested in hearstone or indie games that Sean has played. This video brought the exact feelings in me as it did to you! Sean is such an awesome person. :)
Trying to gather the key points regarding people that are not in a / have never been in a relationship. -don't be afraid of pain and rejection -you learn to handle rejections through trail and error -put yourself in "dangerous" situations -be honest and forward about your intentions towards a person (in a controlled manner ofc) but still being confident -learn more about yourself by going to events etc. Something you know you will enjoy or either being curious about. Main point being experience things, especially new things and new people. -highly recommend to train your body and eat right and sleep right because your brain will produces natural "i am happy about myself" hormones. -you have some control whether a situation is awkward or not Thank you day9! Never had a girlfriend myself and I am 21 years old just started out in college. This video got some points I can start off with. Thank you for taking time to do this you amazing bastard :)
Im in favor for making this a series, Not strictly dating but a life discussion. I feel like Sean has alot of help to offer people like me who are just bad at being social and communicating with others.
+SpinoJames You must be a time traveler from the past! Welcome to 2015. Day[9] hasn't made a Starcraft video in a few years. Sorry. :( Also, we didn't get those hoverboards either.
Best dating advice I got from this show: Get a cat. But no really as much as some of these answers seem like common sense sometimes we focus so much on our specific situations that we tend to overthink stuff like this. Then we think, think some more while no progress is being made then we think why we aren't having any progress and we think some more. Break that cycle, ask him/her out, don't fear the rejection and if you don't want things to be awkward then don't make them awkward.
He taught Starcraft and did analysis for 3 or 4 years. Teaching is teaching. If you practice teaching anything, you'll learn to convey your thoughts in a more interesting and concise way over time which is what happened for Day[9]. You don't just do something like that for years and not get better at it.
Basically, you rush or you meta. I prefer rushing. You show your hand right away, and if you are prepared, you can handle the response. If you get beaten this way, you were probably outplayed from the start, and had no chance of a victory. If you choose to meta, you will have to gamble. You need to be careful with your approaches, because eventually, there will probably be a tank that you didn't spot, on a siege mode, that will just crush you. There is also a build where you fake meta but actually rush, but this is mostly used by cheaters.
Jimmy Squiky Macro is great if you employ many workers and especially if you have the funds to fly to a remote island, but for the most of us, it's rush or meta.
Holy shit Day9 Dating Advice LOL I've been watching Sean for like 5 years. I feel like this should've happened so long ago. Especially when he first told us about Felicity.
+8thlvlMage I caught all the times he talked about dating it's just it was always incidental. He didnt really stop and say "OK Guys today is dating advice send questions." It was more "There was a girl I knew, we'll call her Felicity..."
+djuraster He does indeed. I come from some feminists/anti-feminists channels and the level of sexual/emotional illiteracy is astonishing. Day9 rocks! I would much appreciate hist take on feminism.
Day9, thanks to this video a friend sent me I got the courage to ask out one of my best friends for the last 6 years on New Year's Day. Our first date is this Saturday! Thank you for being such a positive inspiration and helping me take this giant leap of faith!
+Josh Teixeira Last night I met a girl. She said, "Hello." I said, "Greetings, traveller." Then she hit me in the face with a fireball. It was pretty romantic.
3 years after uploading this, this is still really good advice. Talking about the fact you should be able to say "no" for whatever reason once in a time. I've had lots of ppl guilt tripping me for saying no to something while I owe them nothing, to the point I felt really terrible when I wanted to say no. If you get to that point that you feel terrible to say no to someone, you have to realize what is happening and then (maybe the next time if it's to late to say no) you have to keep your ground and tell them no even if it feels shitty. After that you will feel great for standing up for yourself and you will have grown as a person
The advice at 29:57 is so solid. I've had depression for the last 4 years, recently lost over 150lbs after not leaving the house for years and spoke to nobody except my mum rarely. Now that i'm getting out and about again i'm finding that my conversation skills are complete SHIT. But I never really thought about how easy it COULD be if I just do what you say. It sounds so obvious now but I honestly didn't think of it that way.
I can't believe how much awesome you are. Even though your answers are comedic in nature - they are extremely helpful and truthful at the same time. A truly amazing person. You make my day better.
10:00 this topic is very important. You are not responsible for how someone else feels. You can be a stimulus but never the cause. Nonviolent Communication is what Sean was talking about. This is the best book ive ever read when it comes to dealing with human beings in general. I think Sean probably has read this book or at least the topic of NVC.
Day9 you made my day with this video. lately I haven't been feeling good due to the issues of going back to school. But your videos really make me happy, and I am forever grateful for that. This one in particular helped me a lot. Thank you.
This is the first video of yours I've ever watched and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the way you think about what you would say before you say it and they way you choose to communicate with others.
Considering Day 9' body is squared with us for the duration of this entire episode, I need to ask How many people can feel the weight of his aura through the screen?
4:30 "All you have to do in life is keep putting yourself in incredibly brave, heartbreaking situations and learn to have great coping mechanisms." ~Day[9] I feel like this should be emblazoned on a shirt or mounted on a wall.
On the second question, I'm not sure I agree with the idea that you should always just be able to say no to everything and not have it be a big deal. If I call my boyfriend to pick me up at work and he says, "I can't because [an actual reason]", I wouldn't be angry at him for that. But if he says something along the lines of "Eh, I don't want to, rather watch netflix or take a nap", yeah, I'd be pissed. Personally, I count on my significant other to fulfill the reasonable needs that I have. And if they can do that but simply don't want to, then maybe they don't really want to be in a relationship with me.
Have to go into work in five hours but I couldn't stop watching. Great advice all round. The #1 key to dating is conversation. A person that's great fun to talk to will always be at least a little sexy. The #1 key to conversation is: get them to talk about themselves. The #2 key to conversation is: talk about yourself only as it relates to things other people find interesting. Don't talk about your obscure obsession with dolls, unless it relates to something they care about. Have things that you can talk about that people will relate to.
"You expect the agony to be far worst and it just never really is." Thanks Day9. Just the words I needed to hear since I currently find myself in this situation.
I just keep revisting this video, when I need an encouragement. "You expect the agony to be far worse - but it never really is." is so true and applies to many fields of life besides dating. :) Thank you.
I miss these videos, I know you still do them Sean but not as regularly as you used to, or at least that's how it feels to me. I've re-watched your previous Day9 Story Time videos so many times already.
I've just been binging on your highlights while I play overwatch recently and I'm sure you hear this all the time but you just have such a way with words. Your story telling abilities are amazing, definitely not something everyone has. Solid advice too, as someone in a similar age group I can really relate to a lot of things you go back to in your life and talk about. Just really entertaining stuff, thanks a lot. Day 9 talk show when?
I'm not sure I agree with the "She can't be mad at you for not picking her up" thing. If it's a one-off thing, sure, but I've had friends who do this kind of thing all the time, the kind of thing where you could literally have just been mugged and stranded in the middle of the woods and you ask a friend to pick you up and they're like "Nah, I'm watching a movie". Of course they have a right to say no, but it's still a pretty shitty thing to do if you know they really need your help and you basically prioritise a video game over them. If this kind of thing happens fairly often, it can easily cause a person to feel like the other person doesn't really care about them.
Yeah, asking a girl out on a date. She says: "Let's be friends." I answer: " Ok, then." On the same day I got ambushed by more then ten guys and awake two days later in a hospital with a broken arm, broken leg and an injured rib. So apparently she didn't even wanted to be friends and I would've accepted that, if she had told me from the start.
Day[9] just demonstrated the straight up confidence and boldness you acquire when you're having a good hair day and da acne starts clearing up. You go boy!
Day9, you are a fucking genius. And I love how optimistic you are about the whole world and about people. That's really rare and inspiring. You deserve the kisses from Sheriff!
I like all your videos but I LOVE the videos where you're just talking to us about whatever. Whether it's giving advice, reading fanfiction or telling us about something in your past. Your storytelling skills are highly effective, good sir. If you and sw00zie ever did a collab telling a story together it would be the most amazing shit. Have a great weekend!
Also im 100% with you when it comes to age differences. Lets compare a 28 year old to a 19 year old. The 19 is most likely in school, most likely lives with his/her parents cant legally drink (in the US). The 28 year old. Has probably worked for atleast 5+ years. May even gotten a promotion. He/She has done alot of things they've wanted to do in life that costs money and requires saving such a traveling. The life experiences are incredibly different. Also maturity is a thing. Surely theres 19 year olds who act older and more mature. But even they tend to have some tendencies that remind you of a 19 year old. As someone who's closing in on 30 and didnt expect the years to go buy so fast. If an 18 year old talked to me about their life experiences. It'd be basicly what I had done in the first year of working. It's almost like trying to have a deep conversation with a 5 year old. They understand what you're saying somewhat, but they dont grasp the full thing.
Please Sean I beg you do more non-sc videos! My friends and I all love you but none of us play sc so we're always so pumped when you come out with something like this
This video is great. You are good at this (giving relationship advice). I really liked the point you made in response to the question from Justinian. People should not be making demands of you. If they are, and expecting you to comply, then there's something wrong with the relationship. Unless it's a master/slave relationship, and the slave likes it that way.
On the second question, I noticed something. You talk about giving good advice and being calm yourself: "get a bowl of cheerios, I know you love honey-nut." You're actually talking about a difference in personality types here though. The advice-giving is what I also do, but it doesn't help everyone. Some people just want someone to listen to them talk. I don't get that, doesn't work for me, but if your girlfriend is that type of person then just listening and replying with "i know, I see, that sucks...." is gonna work out a lot better.
Never really had issues with women, but I find it very interesting how similar you and I view things like this. I think people get to caught up on being rejected. it's part of life. You'll apply for ALOT of jobs and they probably wont even reach out to tell you, you didnt get the job. Thats life, so just move on. No need to harp up on things that's in the past. I believe a mindset like this allows you to really move on quicker with things. Even really hard things like losing a loved one. The fact of the matter is you're in "this" situation now. You can either sit back and feel sorry for yourself which changes nothing or you can look to move on and find joy again.
14:30 careful with that one, I have tried that myself, timing is key, if u "change subject" trying to find the source of the real problem/irritation that might annoy the girl, whom right at that time will be upset with you, it will be a dead end she will be too pissed to think that far. Bring it up later when she has calmed down, timing is key. gl out there
+JungerNych Justinian here, I sent the Q to Day9 three days after our initial fight. We hadn't spoken since that day. Day9 seems right in that there are other stuff troubling her, but she seems a bit complicated at times. Seems she didnt get mad at me for not picking her up, but it was my tone when I tried helping her find someone to pick her up. But hey, try getting in touch with some1 while playing three tables of poker at the same time. I am not an amazing multitasker. Anyway, we worked things out and yes, we are still together.
Sean is the most romantic man I know! Felicity is a lucky woman! :) (Thanks for that video yesterday Sean! I've been MIA for a long while because of moving and tiredness and a bunch of other things, but I miss watching you live and the Day[9] chat! I'll come back, don't know exactly when, but I'll do for sure! dayHeart )
I didn't know guys had such a hard time asking a girl out. Might ask someone I like on a date instead of hoping they will from now on. Fear of rejection is a pretty annoying thing to try and get past, though, plus it seems nearly everyone I know is already in a relationship @_@ As usual Day9, thanks, you never fail to cheer me up
So, I see that logical pragmatism is not always the right process to apply to relationships and emotions. lol If I miss someone's e-mail, yeah, I will apologize for that because that was my mistake. Unless I didn't receive it, or it went to Junk. If I missed a call from my boyfriend, I would feel sorry and say so because I'd wish we could have talked at that moment. Or I guess if you don't care, you don't care. lol And enjoy being single. Obligation is not what it begrudgingly is with someone you care about. When someone asks where you were and what you were doing, it's not necessarily being trapped in expectation and check-ins, it's the sharing of information because you're interested and care. If my boyfriend regularly picks me up and I didn't know about his tournaments, that's a communication issue on both ends. That's why relationships are hard, communication. Takes a lot to stay on the same page. Always best not to assume, basically.

"Go all out. Cause when it goes wrong, it can go real wrong, and that's fucking awesome!" This is a man who knows how to live life to its fullest, and I have to respect that.

Trying to gather the key points regarding people that are not in a / have never been in a relationship.
-don't be afraid of pain and rejection
-you learn to handle rejections through trail and error
-put yourself in "dangerous" situations
-be honest and forward about your intentions towards a person (in a controlled manner ofc) but still being confident
-learn more about yourself by going to events etc. Something you know you will enjoy or either being curious about. Main point being experience things, especially new things and new people.
-highly recommend to train your body and eat right and sleep right because your brain will produces natural "i am happy about myself" hormones.
-you have some control whether a situation is awkward or not
Thank you day9! Never had a girlfriend myself and I am 21 years old just started out in college. This video got some points I can start off with. Thank you for taking time to do this you amazing bastard :)
Four years on, I would love an update...
Im in favor for making this a series, Not strictly dating but a life discussion. I feel like Sean has alot of help to offer people like me who are just bad at being social and communicating with others.
Came here for starcraft videos, now I'm getting dating advice, not sure how it happened but I am not complaining
+SpinoJames You must be a time traveler from the past! Welcome to 2015. Day[9] hasn't made a Starcraft video in a few years. Sorry. :( Also, we didn't get those hoverboards either.
Best dating advice I got from this show: Get a cat.
But no really as much as some of these answers seem like common sense sometimes we focus so much on our specific situations that we tend to overthink stuff like this. Then we think, think some more while no progress is being made then we think why we aren't having any progress and we think some more. Break that cycle, ask him/her out, don't fear the rejection and if you don't want things to be awkward then don't make them awkward.
+Lawrence Salcido I think the bottom line of don't think about it is very important. Took me some years to learn it out.
Cat makes for excellent conversation.
This is exactly right.
+Lawrence Salcido For some people they might know something, but hearing it from someone else may help a lot. :)
I really missed these types of segments. You have a very "teacher" like aura about you
+Gaifreak He has a lot of practice from spending 3 or 4 years, you know, teaching. :)
Wait, he was actually a teacher?
He taught Starcraft and did analysis for 3 or 4 years. Teaching is teaching. If you practice teaching anything, you'll learn to convey your thoughts in a more interesting and concise way over time which is what happened for Day[9]. You don't just do something like that for years and not get better at it.
+Gaifreak He was a grad student. Almost all grad students act as professors to pay their way through college.
Gaifreak Even his jokes sound like a math professor's.
Basically, you rush or you meta. I prefer rushing. You show your hand right away, and if you are prepared, you can handle the response. If you get beaten this way, you were probably outplayed from the start, and had no chance of a victory. If you choose to meta, you will have to gamble. You need to be careful with your approaches, because eventually, there will probably be a tank that you didn't spot, on a siege mode, that will just crush you. There is also a build where you fake meta but actually rush, but this is mostly used by cheaters.
By meta you mean macro right?
Instructions unclear, drove to date in siege tank.
+HiroProtagonest my sides
+Ville Nurmi Ya I got bodied by the siege tank. ;w;
Jimmy Squiky Macro is great if you employ many workers and especially if you have the funds to fly to a remote island, but for the most of us, it's rush or meta.
Thanks Day9, you helped me boost my confidence by alot!
+XDthejulianXD I don't know what an 'alot' is, but it helped give me confidence too!
+XDthejulianXD Day9 is awesome. He's living legend
day9 story time! I missed these and stories of kirs... I mean Felicity
Kirsten??
Holy shit Day9 Dating Advice LOL I've been watching Sean for like 5 years. I feel like this should've happened so long ago. Especially when he first told us about Felicity.
+Thabiso Mhlaba There have been some dating-related stories already, though. Love the one where he describes why he loves being dumped.
+Thabiso Mhlaba How did you miss all the times he talked about dating?? Watch his Funday Mondays and Storytimes to get caught up.
+Thabiso Mhlaba g.g.
+8thlvlMage I caught all the times he talked about dating it's just it was always incidental. He didnt really stop and say "OK Guys today is dating advice send questions." It was more "There was a girl I knew, we'll call her Felicity..."
+Stijn van Drongelen why does he love being dumped? Episode name?
I`ve been dating girls for 20 years...Day9 knows his shit...I approve
+djuraster but you dated several girls, and that implies it didnt work out
+djuraster He does indeed. I come from some feminists/anti-feminists channels and the level of sexual/emotional illiteracy is astonishing. Day9 rocks! I would much appreciate hist take on feminism.
+Enachescu Dumitru Everyone can appreciate DayNyan :)
+Soju69jinro Yeah, it's like buying a sofa. Gotta try a few out before you find the right one.
+Kael This is dating advise, being promiscuous is a whole nother story. 20:30 Day9 talks about you :))
Day9, thanks to this video a friend sent me I got the courage to ask out one of my best friends for the last 6 years on New Year's Day. Our first date is this Saturday! Thank you for being such a positive inspiration and helping me take this giant leap of faith!
It is pretty much unbelievable that Sean can talk about anything and I would listen him always no matter what the topic is :D
actually the best morales on CZcams, the best MTG player, and just generally a great guy. Day9TV
I think I'll just stay a virgin and play Hearthstone kappa.
+Josh Teixeira Last night I met a girl. She said, "Hello." I said, "Greetings, traveller." Then she hit me in the face with a fireball. It was pretty romantic.
Goddamn. I want a relationship like that.
+sckchui you didn't shot her with an arrow in the eye?
+sckchui thats the first time I've laughed so hard to a comment
Josh Teixeira yep, it's not all its cracked up to be, hearthstone is way more exhilarating
3 years after uploading this, this is still really good advice. Talking about the fact you should be able to say "no" for whatever reason once in a time.
I've had lots of ppl guilt tripping me for saying no to something while I owe them nothing, to the point I felt really terrible when I wanted to say no.

There's always been that first time you came to this channel to watch Starcraft 2 and after that you came back to watch Sean talk. the Memories :D
Why does this have to be a special, I want weekly advice, just love hearing you talk about haha. You're way to funny day9
10:00 this topic is very important. You are not responsible for how someone else feels. You can be a stimulus but never the cause. Nonviolent Communication is what Sean was talking about. This is the best book ive ever read when it comes to dealing with human beings in general. I think Sean probably has read this book or at least the topic of NVC.
+1 for being frank with people. I really wish we could all internalize that advice.
Day9 you made my day with this video. lately I haven't been feeling good due to the issues of going back to school. But your videos really make me happy, and I am forever grateful for that. This one in particular helped me a lot.
Thank you.
Sean is the uncle we all never had. God bless Day9
This is quite weird to see on a gaming chanel. I quite like it.
+Anders Lundman We need this.
+Anders Lundman Let's be honest, its probably the best place for it anyway
+StuxiTV Are those colors behind your 'S' what i think they mean?
Kenny Kendall What do you think they mean?
StuxiTV
Anarcho-Mutualism
This is the first video of yours I've ever watched and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the way you think about what you would say before you say it and they way you choose to communicate with others.
Today in my recommended videos I see, "Dating Advice. Recommended for you." Ok, fine, CZcams. I get it.
LOL
Considering Day 9' body is squared with us for the duration of this entire episode, I need to ask
How many people can feel the weight of his aura through the screen?
4:30 "All you have to do in life is keep putting yourself in incredibly brave, heartbreaking situations and learn to have great coping mechanisms." ~Day[9]
I feel like this should be emblazoned on a shirt or mounted on a wall.
Hey Sean, I've been watching your channel for awhile now and I think you're great. Wanna go on a date sometime?
Really nice, Day9! It'd be nice if you could include the twitch chat on the screen next time, I love seeing peoples reactions to your brain. :P
+Wagasez Noplz. Idon't want to see cancer in human chat form.
On the second question, I'm not sure I agree with the idea that you should always just be able to say no to everything and not have it be a big deal. If I call my boyfriend to pick me up at work and he says, "I can't because [an actual reason]", I wouldn't be angry at him for that. But if he says something along the lines of "Eh, I don't want to, rather watch netflix or take a nap", yeah, I'd be pissed. Personally, I count on my significant other to fulfill the reasonable needs that I have. And if they can do that but simply don't want to, then maybe they don't really want to be in a relationship with me.
DAY9 DATING EPISODE 2 PLEASE!
The community Demands it!
Have to go into work in five hours but I couldn't stop watching. Great advice all round.
The #1 key to dating is conversation. A person that's great fun to talk to will always be at least a little sexy.
The #1 key to conversation is: get them to talk about themselves.

I miss these videos, I know you still do them Sean but not as regularly as you used to, or at least that's how it feels to me. I've re-watched your previous Day9 Story Time videos so many times already.
I'm surprised the name 'Felicity' wasn't used once.
Rewatching this years later and realizing so many of my interpersonal skills come from Sean.
I've just been binging on your highlights while I play overwatch recently and I'm sure you hear this all the time but you just have such a way with words. Your story telling abilities are amazing, definitely not something everyone has. Solid advice too, as someone in a similar age group I can really relate to a lot of things you go back to in your life and talk about. Just really entertaining stuff, thanks a lot. Day 9 talk show when?
Listening to Day9 on dating advice. What am I doing with my life?
Improving it.
Listening to Day9s advice on dating*
Really enjoyed this. I would listen to Day9 chat about any topic
God I love listening to Day9 talk, I hope he does another ones of these because they're so much fun to listen too
Funniest dating advice I've ever gotten, and shockingly it even made sense.
Clearly you studied the meta to improve your game.
+1 for "It's only awkward as you want it to be." I was once given such profound advice...
REALLY clutch advice there in the last minute of the show.
I'm not sure I agree with the "She can't be mad at you for not picking her up" thing. If it's a one-off thing, sure, but I've had friends who do this kind of thing all the time, the kind of thing where you could literally have just been mugged and stranded in the middle of the woods and you ask a friend to pick you up and they're like "Nah, I'm watching a movie". Of course they have a right to say no, but it's still a pretty shitty thing to do if you know they really need your help and you basically prioritise a video game over them. If this kind of thing happens fairly often, it can easily cause a person to feel like the other person doesn't really care about them.
Yeah, asking a girl out on a date. She says: "Let's be friends." I answer: " Ok, then." On the same day I got ambushed by more then ten guys and awake two days later in a hospital with a broken arm, broken leg and an injured rib. So apparently she didn't even wanted to be friends and I would've accepted that, if she had told me from the start.
Day[9] just demonstrated the straight up confidence and boldness you acquire when you're having a good hair day and da acne starts clearing up. You go boy!
Sean you should write a book. Day9's advice for health and happiness. Something like that. Some pretty sage advice being given out here.
Yey, even more Dayjay talking without games in the background!
Day9, you are a fucking genius. And I love how optimistic you are about the whole world and about people. That's really rare and inspiring. You deserve the kisses from Sheriff!
Please make this a weekly segment
I like all your videos but I LOVE the videos where you're just talking to us about whatever. Whether it's giving advice, reading fanfiction or telling us about something in your past. Your storytelling skills are highly effective, good sir. If you and sw00zie ever did a collab telling a story together it would be the most amazing shit. Have a great weekend!
16:43 got my like
Sean could teach a master class on almost any subject and I would pay for it
Hey, in the future can you up the volume you were pretty low compared to other youtube videos.
Awesome video, love your content :)
"I don't whisper because that's fucked up" hahahaha
I wouldn't mind more segments like these
You should absolutely make more videos like this. I love it.
Also im 100% with you when it comes to age differences. Lets compare a 28 year old to a 19 year old. The 19 is most likely in school, most likely lives with his/her parents cant legally drink (in the US). The 28 year old. Has probably worked for atleast 5+ years. May even gotten a promotion. He/She has done alot of things they've wanted to do in life that costs money and requires saving such a traveling. The life experiences are incredibly different. Also maturity is a thing. Surely theres 19 year olds who act older and more mature. But even they tend to have some tendencies that remind you of a 19 year old. As someone who's closing in on 30 and didnt expect the years to go buy so fast. If an 18 year old talked to me about their life experiences. It'd be basicly what I had done in the first year of working. It's almost like trying to have a deep conversation with a 5 year old. They understand what you're saying somewhat, but they dont grasp the full thing.
I want Day9 story time back!
You're simply great, Sean. Much love. thank you for being you, this helped me a lot
"... or brutality." OK, it's been a few years since I tuned in to Day[9], but I'm glad to be back.
no time for dates, almost at 500 wins for druid
I think you are amazing!
I'm glad that I find this channel 😊
I'm pretty late to the party but the advice about breaking up is what I needed. Thanks.
When he said 23:33 : Izabela
It sounded so polish to me
Please Sean I beg you do more non-sc videos! My friends and I all love you but none of us play sc so we're always so pumped when you come out with something like this
Ok, so this needs to be a series
I'll always be you're fan Sean, it's because of videos like these.
This video is great. You are good at this (giving relationship advice).
I really liked the point you made in response to the question from Justinian.
People should not be making demands of you. If they are, and expecting you to comply, then there's something wrong with the relationship. Unless it's a master/slave relationship, and the slave likes it that way.
On the second question, I noticed something. You talk about giving good advice and being calm yourself: "get a bowl of cheerios, I know you love honey-nut." You're actually talking about a difference in personality types here though. The advice-giving is what I also do, but it doesn't help everyone. Some people just want someone to listen to them talk. I don't get that, doesn't work for me, but if your girlfriend is that type of person then just listening and replying with "i know, I see, that sucks...." is gonna work out a lot better.
Never really had issues with women, but I find it very interesting how similar you and I view things like this. I think people get to caught up on being rejected. it's part of life. You'll apply for ALOT of jobs and they probably wont even reach out to tell you, you didnt get the job. Thats life, so just move on. No need to harp up on things that's in the past. I believe a mindset like this allows you to really move on quicker with things. Even really hard things like losing a loved one. The fact of the matter is you're in "this" situation now. You can either sit back and feel sorry for yourself which changes nothing or you can look to move on and find joy again.
hahahaha i miss watching seans dailys. use to watch them every day in the old SC2 days
please do more of these videos!
14:30 careful with that one, I have tried that myself, timing is key, if u "change subject" trying to find the source of the real problem/irritation that might annoy the girl, whom right at that time will be upset with you, it will be a dead end she will be too pissed to think that far. Bring it up later when she has calmed down, timing is key. gl out there
+JungerNych Justinian here, I sent the Q to Day9 three days after our initial fight. We hadn't spoken since that day. Day9 seems right in that there are other stuff troubling her, but she seems a bit complicated at times. Seems she didnt get mad at me for not picking her up, but it was my tone when I tried helping her find someone to pick her up. But hey, try getting in touch with some1 while playing three tables of poker at the same time. I am not an amazing multitasker. Anyway, we worked things out and yes, we are still together.
+Daniel Eik that is great to hear^^ I hope everything will continue to work out!
There are some very excellent pieces of advice here, I would love to see this segment again sometime! Date[9].
Day[9] you are simply the most fantastic human alive
bookmarked that video. Whenever I have a date I will watch this video before!
he could probably make a living just streaming his thoughts on everything
Great episode overal, absolute best part at 34:50 !
This is such a wholesome, useful video
whenever i'm sad i look for these videos about how positive sean and his followers are. you're all cutiepies
Was awesome how you ended this video. Great advice.
he actually did it the absolute madman
This was just awesome, would absolutely love to see more of this :D
Day9.....you're the damn man, love everything you do, keep it up man!
Thank you day9 for being an awesome person and gracing the world with your great communication skills.
Sean is the most romantic man I know! Felicity is a lucky woman! :)
(Thanks for that video yesterday Sean!
I've been MIA for a long while because of moving and tiredness and a bunch of other things, but I miss watching you live and the Day[9] chat! I'll come back, don't know exactly when, but I'll do for sure! dayHeart )
More of this please
that's actually the best show on the interwebs.
i usually just open with, "Im older and smoke and likes punk music and your dad will hate me" that usually works
Magazines have tried to do this for decades. Finally someone succeeds.
got my popcorn ready already
I didn't know guys had such a hard time asking a girl out. Might ask someone I like on a date instead of hoping they will from now on. Fear of rejection is a pretty annoying thing to try and get past, though, plus it seems nearly everyone I know is already in a relationship @_@
As usual Day9, thanks, you never fail to cheer me up
So, I see that logical pragmatism is not always the right process to apply to relationships and emotions. lol If I miss someone's e-mail, yeah, I will apologize for that because that was my mistake. Unless I didn't receive it, or it went to Junk. If I missed a call from my boyfriend, I would feel sorry and say so because I'd wish we could have talked at that moment. Or I guess if you don't care, you don't care. lol And enjoy being single.
Obligation is not what it begrudgingly is with someone you care about. When someone asks where you were and what you were doing, it's not necessarily being trapped in expectation and check-ins, it's the sharing of information because you're interested and care. If my boyfriend regularly picks me up and I didn't know about his tournaments, that's a communication issue on both ends. That's why relationships are hard, communication. Takes a lot to stay on the same page. Always best not to assume, basically.
