  • The NRA has spent a LOT of money to ensure this.

  • How do you stop feeling the desire to be in a relationship?
  • I wouldn't, not because you are unsuccessful, but because you hate yourself.

    When I met my partner of 10 years, he had no money, i had barely any. We drank king cans by the river and smoked weed for our first date. In fact, I dated so many guys that were hardly conventionally attractive, money or success weren't things I considered. The only things I considered were how I felt around them. You would be surprised what kind of things women find attractive.

    You really are just making huge leaps and assumptions because you don't want to have to turn your whole world upside down, because that would mean admitting you have been wrong for so long and miserable for no reason. It would mean having to dissect your own ego.

    You clearly don't want to be happy, because if you did, you wouldn't be arguing against advice you asked for. Women don't want to date you because you don't want them to want to date you, because that would mean you're wrong, so you actively push them away by doing things like this.

  • How do you stop feeling the desire to be in a relationship?
  • Sounds like you want to never have one. That's a self-fulfilling prophecy. You have convinced yourself so hard that this is who you are, that you are making that who you are.

    If you don't want to be this person, don't be that person.

  • How do you stop feeling the desire to be in a relationship?
  • For your own mental health, try to avoid assuming all women feel the same, it dehumanizes them which prevents you from having empathy and thus creating meaningful connections because you are assuming a woman's feelings before ever knowing her.

    A lot of women feel the same way you do, trust me. A lot of women don't know what they want, or just want something as simple as somebody that they enjoy spending time with. That's it. Try not to overcomplicate it. Ask them what they want before you sabotage connections.

  • How do you stop feeling the desire to be in a relationship?
  • One: self reflection. Write your thoughts out regularly, reflect on them, this will enable you to self actualize.

    Two: learn to enjoy your own company. Go to movies alone if you like, go on trips alone, do things you enjoy alone, and thoroughly enjoy them. Doesn't matter if it's a hobby or whatever or if you commit to it or not, the only requirement is that you enjoy it. Put your energy into things that make you happy.

    If you're having trouble finding things you enjoy, I highly suggest therapy, but also exploration. Go out of your comfort zone and try things. But absolutely therapy because it may help you figure some things out that you didn't know were holding you back.

    The more you enjoy your own company, the more confident you become. Confidence helps with your own happiness, it helps you understand what you deserve, it helps you meet people and make friends and build meaningful connections.

    And when I say enjoy I mean actually enjoy, not just pretend to. You will know the difference as this is for you and not a performance for others.

    Godspeed.

  • Oh no, I'm not brave enough for politics
  • Hence "calling yourself a duck does not make you a duck"

  • Oh no, I'm not brave enough for politics
  • Yes. Fools will tell you the Nazis were socialists, people of a normal intelligence will tell you that calling yourself a duck does not make you a duck.

  • Fair enough, slavery is awfully attractive to them

  • For the dudes here... What "girl" song you secretly love?
  • My favourite is when hardcore bands cover pop songs because the songs are often structured the same, so good.

  • Have you heard her cover of Made Up Mind by the Bros. Landreth? SO fucking good!

  • Lot of people put it on top of tobacco or weed too but often it's a similar setup to smoking cannabis concentrates

  • Yeah I've definitely seen multiple people smoking meth out of bongs in my lifetime. Safer than injecting.

  • Even though it's meth, 30 years is fucking STEEP. You'd never see somebody getting that much for alcohol in their system unless they killed someone.

  • Possibly, I just don't see the financial incentive to restricting women financially. Because how can they increase their debt impulsively if they have to ask permission?

    I understand why the powers that be want to restrict reproductive rights, it bolsters the future workforce, but preventing any the working class from spending money wouldn't make any sense.

    Like, yeah, a lot of these people do hate women, but they're primarily motivated by pursuit of profit.

  • taking us back half a century
  • Nah see I don't think that'd ever happen. The banks have too much stake in women continuing to hold bank accounts so they can poach their debt. Capitalism wouldn't allow it.

  • What thing could your parents do the most significantly better than you?
  • Have and raise children.

    They raised me 👉😎👉

    Also I'm not having kids.

  • How does it feel being in a relationship?
  • No, learning to love yourself first is not a prerequisite for finding love or happiness. But it sure makes it a hell of a lot easier to know what's best for you.

    Do consider therapy if you have a way of procuring it, I know it's expensive, or the next best thing in my opinion is to go and grab a notebook from the dollar store and just start writing your thoughts down. It's going back and reading those thoughts that really helps with self actualization and reflection, imo.

    I wish you luck, OP, you deserve happiness and I believe you can find it, but you have to be patient with yourself and other people. Becoming vulnerable to others, although risky, really helps expedite the process.
