OK I'm ready to post #13. New thread names?

Also I have a pretty good list of lawyers I know from the thread, but if we want to add more details on experiences in law school/lawyering we can add that.

Can a mod tell me if there is some kind of protocol for posting one of these megathreads?

I'm no mod but the protocol is :justpost:

, the OP can be edited if needed

What, this?

So Tipps was basically right?

So what it sounds like is that you went and e-mailed someone again. You know you're not supposed to do that. It's blatantly obvious to this thread that you are not good with e-mails, and that you very obviously can not handle the awesome responsibility and power of non-verbal communication with women. Stop with the e-mails. Stop it!

But hey, here's a thing to consider: We're in 2018 now. It's #metoo-land now, and people are reporting people for everything and anything under the sun. You've obviously done something to elicit this reaction, which might be any old thing morally dubious or not, and now she obviously thinks she has something to report. So as to 1), that doesn't matter because you hosed up somehow or she's crazy and that's the situation now. As for 2), tough luck. She's made it explicitly clear that you are not to contact her in any way, or else. Do not contact her in any way, or else. Learn to live with and learn from your mistakes, and take a good long look at just exactly what it is that makes you prone to these situations happening to you. If you're the common denominator in all of these situations, entertain the idea that it might be you.

Now post the e-mails.

We are waiting on these emails still.

Lol I hosed up the title, if a mod wants to put the "lawyer & law school" part in the right order I have a feeling it would greatly help with the thread's OCD, thank you.

If you make a new thread - just have one link to Auto Admit and let people see the racist incel underbelly that makes up the majority of the legal profession, pin it and close it - no one will ever become a lawyer after that and we will have done our duty to protect the children from attorneys.
