    thanks to the modern economics, it’s not like there’s many parties anyway and a drink in a bar costs more than my food for the whole day. plus we let big tech psychos convince us that the paid online dating trap is the way to go. the only people that cold approach me are street shysters and crackheads in the train station, and i like to be left alone in public, so i assume everyone else does too. you’re probably out because you have stuff to do and not just walking around aimlessly, right?

    then everyone in college already has their friend group, barging in feels like intruding. if you find someone you have stuff in common with and you don’t have mainstream social media, you’re likely dead to them. then you start a job and get locked in an office cubicle forever.

    if you choose to play anyway, make sure you’re not homosexual, or heavens forbid, trans or asexual. you’d be playing the game on hardmode!

    I’m the type who when I’m not in a relationship long enough I start to think maybe I want one, but then I remember what it’s like to be in one, and remind myself not to be so delusional. I’m very much happier being ‘alone’. Not that I’m actually alone. I have non-romantic relationships. I will admit having two incomes would be nice tho.

    Grateful for my blessings and blessed to give back, I’m giving 35 grand to anyone who messages “GRACE” on Telegram @Georgestones12, I understand that many people are struggling with bills, and I want to help reduce that burden. It’s a season of love, kindness, and blessings.

    While a relationship can be an absolutely amazing, fulfilling connection between two people, most people, especially young people, don’t start a relationship on that basis - they’re driven by biological drive and hormones. However, when you’re old enough where your hormones stop driving the car, the prospect of dying alone can become a blessing. Either commit to a relationship as something you want and be willing to put in the time and effort it’s going to take, or wait out the worst of it until your mind calms itself down in your 40s. Think of everything from your mid-teens to your mid-40s as a Pon Farr, with the exact same possible treatments.

    I harass cashiers until they fall in love with me.

    This was how I got my ex boyfriend and my currently… more than friends less than lovers chick.

      See there’s the mistake. You’re capable of enough self analysis to understand you’re flawed. Like 60% of people just aren’t capable of that and are actual shit.

    Actually, some girls have approached me after years of having this strategy! Two of them managed to get through my autistic filtering. However, venting time, both cases have followed this pattern: I’m not interested at first and try to keep distance. After some time I get warmed up enough to get interested back and then the other party loses interest. I can still keep in touch as their second therapist and comfort their suicidal thoughts. There was also a platonic internet friendship with one girl when I was a lonely teenager, but she cut contacts and is dead nowadays.

    I’ve never made a first move and still don’t feel like start dating. Although, I’m kinda close with one woman, but if I try to touch her, she falls asleep. Also, if she doesn’t have enough clothes, she feels too cold and falls asleep. And we’re both kinda depressed bottoms so usually nothing happens anyway. Is this what a relationship should feel like? At least she doesn’t scream and scratch bloody wounds to her arms. Not sure if I should feel lucky having these experiences. Oops, this was a meme channel.
