Isn't the purpose of this blog self-help, i.e. learning to become a better thinker and a more rational actor? Yes, there has been lots of domain-specific advice that maybe would be better placed elsewhere, but I didn't think this post in particular had that failing. It seems like this is a somewhat more general insight.
It is indeed a general insight, and I don't criticize this post in particular. In fact, I upvoted it. However, it seems that many posts on this site deal especially with social awkwardness / failures in social life, so creating a separate site may be a good idea. I could have posted this in the "socially awkward penguin" thread as well (see above for link), but this was the most recent post available for such a remark.
