  Well yeah of course. Lots of people may not like the real you. You just need to find one. Well unless she’s a cheating bitch and then you need two. Er… I mean … never mind. 😂

    but the sad truth is that there is the likely possibility that NOBODY will ever like you despite how loyal or peaceful or kind or handsome you are.

    THATS what makes dating one of the shittiest games to play.

    You can do everything right and every single person you want to date can still want to hang you despite you not saying or doign a mean thing to them.

    You can do everything wrong like pinochet, reza shah, mobuto, joe biden, kamala harris, suharto , pol pot, benjamin mileikowsky, adolph shitler, queen victoria, idi amin, etc… and people will build statues in your honiur AND wanna have your babies…wait… ALL the people I just mentioned all had spouses AND children! loool.

    The same can be said for making friends too I have also found. People have told me they either wont date me or either wont befriend me…because the biggest sin Ive committed , in their words, was I am Black…

    Enjoy those shitty, lonely games , comrades lol 😉🫡💔😏🤭

      Maybe try to avoid this defeatist way of thinking? It hard, sure, not trying to downplay the harsh reality of dating, but giving up will not help you find a partner.

      It’s like giving up on life because you can accidentally die tomorrow.

      At least, meet new people, not trying to date anyone and maybe make friends. Maybe and maybe with some time, one of this new friend will become a lover? Worst case scenario you got more friends. Maybe they have friends themselves and you can meet new people?

      Forget about loyalty, peacefulness, kindness or handsomeness like they are traits in a video game. A mid girl can become you crush by the way they talk to you about their experience of something you share. Try to be the best human being you can become. It’s a lifelong journey. Meet people to expand your perspective. Try sometime to get out of your comfort zone. But also be kind to yourself, allow time to heal from pain and hardship. Allow yourself to cry, it “reset” your nervous system and process an emotional event.

      As for your awful experience of racism, I’m sorry you had to go though that. But don’t forget that you dodge a massive bullet. How would you have like living with someone who devalue you for your skin color?

      Sorry if I sound preachy, I hope you get my message and good intentions. A friend of mine followed for most of his life this “love is not for me” mentality and now regret this choice and is trying his best to live his life fully.

      In the end, it’s your choice, feel free to ignore everything I just said off course. Whatever your choices, good luck, I wish you the best 🫶

        Also umm this:

        Forget about loyalty, peacefulness, kindness or handsomeness like they are traits in a video game.

        I feel like peopele should stop lying to themselves when they say these traits are not imoortant for meeting a monogamous partner. You partner will definitely care about how loyal to them you are if you two are monogamously involved. You oartner will likely care about how kind you are to them and others - heck there are some people who have mental illnesses that make it so thst they like unkind and abusive people MORE. And your oartner will DEFINITELY care about how you look or how ‘beautiful’ or ‘handsome’ you are . There is undeniably a ‘physical aspect’ to a person’s attraction towards you in a monogamous relationship. Would anyone here stay married to a partner who has deliberately let their health go to the point that they belong on ‘My 700 Pound Life’ ? Would anyone here stay with someone who has had so much plastic surgeries that that partner crossed past the Uncanny Valley a looomg time ago? …didnt think so.

        Thank you for your kind words but as I said before "some of the worst people in history have been able to find partners and keep those partners.* Heck, we read and watch about stories on true crime channels all the time where a persom who repeatedly punched and emotionally abused their partners was able to convince that abused party to keep om and keep om and keep on coming back to them.

        And then you have people who wouldnt hurt a fly, take care of their body and their mind and put themselves oit there for others to date and they never met a single person , despite their hardest efforts. Dating is random

        There are no soulmatess. There is no ethereal Space Gods perfectly glcrafting other humans for each of us obviously. Dating is very random. In the past dating was probably more random with the commonality of arranged marriages and impossibly difficult divorce laws that made loveless marriages waaay more common. (Well at least weve reduced those types of relationships . Phew! We need to keep on reducing such relationships since they hirt society.) As I said before datinfg is random.

        Also about the defeatiam. Ive been rejected probably 200 times (I actually lost count after about 120 but Im guessing Ive almost reached 300 so far) It is actually normal for the human brain to accept a defeatist attitude to something that youve failed 200 times. Thats how the brain works, no? If a person has failed a test 200 times …what do you think theyll be thinking the 201st time? …

        Sometimes there are dating rules that make no sense (like people who repeatedly choose to go back to partners that are abusive and even deadly…) Sometims there are rules that make a lot of sense (Males should make an effort to ensure that the ladies that they ask out feel safe and can say no and that they can escape if those ladies feeo that the situation is too awkward for the ladies, seeing as how males are the taller and heavier of our species) Daring is veery random . Most of the rules of dating are sort of like quantum mechanics - there are many things we dont know.

        If you want to keep on and keep on trying to complete this difficult test even though youve failed 3 million times ? Up to you! If one failure is enough? Up to you. If dating is just to nonsensical for you to ever get into? Up to you. We are all adults here . We shouod not judge or restrict a kind, peaceful person who doesnt want to date or does want to date. Regardless of whatever gender they are or whoever they want to date. Love is love at the end of the day

        TLDR. Dating is random. If youre a lonely, kind person who takes care of yourself , your communites , and your mental health and your still lonely? Its not your fault. Sometimes it just is what it is🫂 Some awful people have had dozens of partners. Some kind people never met a single person who reciprocated their love. Soulmates dont really exist if you think carefully about. Love and peace y’all . Bye. ❤️‍🩹🫂

        P.S. If anyone wants to read more about that TLDR I would recommend that ‘The Nuance Pill’ articles from substack

      I totally believe there is someone for everyone. But given the amount of people around you and the number of combinations there is a very distinct possibility you may never meet them. It’s basically a math problem. Well computer science (and possibly economics… can’t remember), lookup the stable matching problem if you really wanna nerd out.

      I’m sorry you have run into that. I can’t help that some people are just racist assholes but I understand how that could make it difficult. My entire life has pretty much been in academia so I don’t really see that side of people very often. I guess the more educated someone is the less racist they tend to be.

      I consider myself very lucky in that I have quite a few friends. Some for as long as 35+ years. But the one trick that I have found to making friends is pretty simple… well its at least worked for me… just be interested in whatever they are interested in. I mean don’t be someone you’re not, but just finding their passions worthy of discussion almost always gets my foot in the door. Eventually, unless there are just a narcisstic asshole, it will be recriprocatedI. If they are that selfish and just use you, you really don’t want them for a friend anyways.
