so lonely i get fucking excited for being called a cute boy online
fuuuuuuuuuuck, this sucks
i miss the feeling of love
same, dude.
My last actual relationship was ten years ago; my daughter’s mother. She messed with me so much that for several years it soured the taste of being close with another human. Now, ive been alone long enough that i think I’ve forgotten what its like to be in a relationship. Not the feeling of fondness but like how to socialize with someone. How to coexist, or cohabitate with another human that isn’t one of my offspring. Its been long enough now that i have turned down a couple dates because im afraid of being an asshole and not even realizing it. Its probably mostly my own fault at this point. So i do like the average male does, and buries it deep, never talks about it and just grows ever awkward, ever distant from his peers.
Holy shit I almost relate 1:1 to you :kitty-cri:
My ex made me very skeptical of relationships because I'm an extremely romantic fucker and she hurt me a lot. I still can't believe I cried after her for months on end. Because I did truly love her.
Lonely days on the hexbears eh?
I had 2 very nice dreams over the last nights that made me wish I could either go back 6 years or be dreaming all the time.
I wish COVID would just not exist... this does suck.My dreams have been nothing but shit that is positive making me not want to wake up. I feel like I'm becoming addicted to sleep.
Yeah, same. And something I've noticed is in my dreams it feels like I can recall people's faces perfectly, but once I wake up they're just vague memories. Just a way that the brain tortures itself.
I am tired of getting ghosted and ignored tbh
Dating apps are like fishing filtered through a slot machine
See it this way: "Love" is commodified through apps like Tinder. The "ghosting" is a systemic problem asociated to the "neoliberalization" (if you will) of social relationships. In other words, an structural problem and not an individual one.
Dating apps just want to maximize engage and sell you the premium model. A "pay to win" love game. And if you find someone in there, that would mean you are going to stop using their app. They don't want that.
Yugopnik has a video on this subject, he explains it far far better than me.
I don't know where you live or your material reality, but social activities are far healthier for meeting new people (from friends to, maybe, SO). Acting classes, book clubs, political activities, political orgs, etc.
Sorry for my intromission. Have a nice day and I send you a virtual hug, comrade.
Oh I'm well aware of all this shit. After a year or so of being on these apps, I've learned some things and I have had chances to talk to women. And cute non-binary people. It's been painful and difficult but overall I have come out knowing more than I did.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Dating apps are one thing I'm never going to try. I hate social media, and especially toxic ones that commodify you.
Till I can actually figure out how to move out of state, this is the only way I have to meet people
Just got back from hanging with a few friends and I was the only one there without a SO. As usual.
I'll call you a cute boy again.
