Comment on Anon is worried about men

I’ve never understood how/why so many guys on Lemmy (and reddit) are so scared of women.
I have no problems dating, and I’m poor as fuck and have a face like a foot.
After reading the responses in this thread, I think it’s all just a bunch of bullshit excuses you all are making up.
I think you all are just afraid. The lack of confidence I see on Lemmy is insane. Lol
You all have spent so much time staring at screens, you’re afraid to talk to people in real life.
Maybe instead of yelling at people on Lemmy who disagree with your politics, you should actually talk to women in real life. Lol

I was trying to remember why I know your name. You’re the guy that for some reason people wanted to ban before right?
Why everyone I interact with you you’re as nice as can be!

Thank you!

They certainly do talk to women. You are being intentionally obtuse.
UniversalMonk@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
They most likely do talk to women. You are being intentionally obtuse.
Um…have you read this entire thread!? Go do that, then come back to this comment. Lmao
These guys don’t seem to know how to talk to anyone, much less talk to wonen. Lol

I’ve read as much of it as my time permits. Just because their experiences don’t tally with your own is not grounds to dismiss them outright.
UniversalMonk@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Just because their experiences don’t tally with your own is not grounds to dismiss them outright.
Their experiences don’t tally with most people’s–that’s the point I’m making. The majority of people who make up Lemmy seem to be more socially inept than the rest of the population. Which also tracks with the attitudes I see here on other things.
So yes, I will dismiss them outright. Lemmy is a small outlier which seems to have a higher population of people who aren’t as socially adjusted as most of the population. And even more so in this thread! lol
And many users I come across on here seem to be strangely fixated on one thing and I’ve actually had them follow me around on Lemmy just to downvote me on unrelated topics because I touched a nerve on a different topic. I’ve had users start entire threads about trying to get others to rally behind the entire fediverse getting rid of me, all because I may have disagreed with them on one subject. It’s weird! lol
Just some examples:
“I’m Calling For the Fediverse to Ban UniversalMonk” sh.itjust.works/post/31017252
“Notorious right wing troll gets one of his many accounts banned for evasion” sh.itjust.works/post/35178938/17637021 "(which people celebrate banning some user who they thought was an alt of me, but wasn’t even me! lmao)*
Reading this thread has pretty much proved my theory that I’ve always had about most Lemmy users! lmao

DMT is cheaper.
UniversalMonk@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Nah, it’s not cheaper than just talking to women.
ijedi1234@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
DMT provides more benefit per dollar.

I’ll pass. You keep doing drugs. I’ll keep fucking. Drugs aren’t my thing. But hey, no hate. You do you.

Yeah I’m pretty far down the comments here and am just dumbfounded, as a 40+/m. I’m married, so maybe my perspective is skewed, but I’m anxious, introverted, and also don’t feel like dating would be that much of a challenge if I found myself in that scene again.
For one, rejection isn’t personal. They’re doing me a favor if they decline or ghost me because I’m not going to waste more time on that relationship. I figured that out in my early 20s. I may need a couple weeks or months between because I don’t have an abundance of social energy, but it’s not that big of a deal either.
And then having hobbies is a great way to meet like-minded people. The more people you encounter with similar interests, the more likely you’ll encounter someone with whom you may connect on another level.
I thought I was one of the most socially inept people I know, but I can’t relate to what I’m reading here. Maybe we need to work on our personal boundaries more and understand ourselves better before we’re pursuing relationships.

Right? Like I said, I’m not skilled any anything, and don’t have any looks going for me. And I’ve never had a problem dating. This thread kinda backs up almost all the stereotypes people have of maladjusted misfits online. lol

Ha, lol, people have fears and self confidence issues.
You all have spent so much time staring at screens, you’re afraid to talk to people in real life.
I get that it takes work to overcome self confidence issues, it does to get over any problem. But to just dismiss a myriad of potential issues and personal circumstances as “oh you nerds just need to touch grass and talk to people” is pretty reductive.

Sure. But Lemmy seems to have a LOT more of that than the regular population.

idk im pretty gay, also asexual. I just dislike people in general. I feel like it’s not that hard to be an incel, and i feel like it’s also pretty hard to socialize, but that’s just me i suppose.
I feel like it’s not that complicated honestly.
