not conservative. can't get a date either.

won't blame minorities for being a loser

[–] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Well you're already miles ahead of most other people in that position

I put a lot of work on being a loser, ain't no way minorities take credit for my hard work.

So long as you depend on other people for happiness. you will never be happy. No one will just give you happiness, or can give you happiness.

Maybe you just won't ever meet the woman that would love someone just like you, maybe you are not searching the right places, or maybe you are just a woman repellant for one reason or another.

Focus on being authentic instead, not everyone needs to have someone.

I would agree with you but there's a with a big issue I disagree with.

Happiness does come from other people. we are social animals. we need community. what really pulled me from a deep long term depression was that I began working with communities, mutual aids, organizing... now I have a relatively large network of friends whom I love dearly and value way more than any single romantic relationships.

The whole "monogamous relationship is the most important relationship in your life" is 100% bullshit. made to atomise communities.

If I had to choose a movie romance with my perfect mate, or my friends, I chose my friends.

and paradoxically, the focus on me and community has made me a more attractive partner with a cute girl currently flirting with me. However, this is not the goal.

I always have a hand if I'm feeling alone at night, my heart is full and alive now.

last week I went to an event about healthcare for all with my kids, and they were so amazed that I knew and hugged almost everyone in the room, with interesting stories about every one of them. I never thought I could be this.

and whenever I met most of them for the first time, I was completely starstruck with them. and now they are all my best friends. I love them so much.

You have fuck trophies and can't get laid? Paradox

if you want details, I got laid on grindr and it sucked so much don't count it as sex. also had a short polyamory thing, but due yo not fault of her I called it off, she reminded me too much of an abusive ex and ended up with serious PTSD flashbacks and ended relapsing. we're still friend and I'm helping her move next week.

my conclusion is that sex/romance is nice, just noting compared with a healthy community.

No, monogamous relationship is a choice to hold someone very special and exclusive. You can do Polyamory, but you have to be honest.

I do plan to make a community and help people, but just from a good fucking distance away from the murder apes that could do me more harm.

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

monogamous relationships are a personal choice. what I'm saying is that it should not interfere with community. it can be a part of it. but if it interferes with your community it's better to stay single.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Huh, that sounds subjective though. Some people do find something quite special about love.

I however, decided I'm not dating, and I'm even going to cut down or eliminate NSFW stuff.

Shame, had some fans, but it is necessary.

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

if your relationship asks you to cut of friendships, run away

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 14 hours ago

When you put it that way...

...can go fuck themselves if they do that. Or at least, I would say no, and force them to choose.

[–] X@piefed.world 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Just stop being conservative. EZPZ.

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 day ago

They'll figure it out when you're not angry at all the stuff going on.

Women won’t date me because I complain about meme text not being level.

[–] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 1 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

I am so hot for you right now. I'm a happily married 56-year-old man, but I'm wet, buddy, I'm wet.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago

It's crazy to claim women won't date you because you're conservative. Live in Texas. There's simply no shortage of women dating, marrying, divorcing, and cheating with conservative men.

There are men who can't get a date, and there are conservatives, and there are conservatives who can't get a date.
