Still stuck in this spot and finally starting to turn negative about it. Just spent this three day holiday weekend completely alone save for a date I went on Saturday that just made me feel even more alone. I genuinely don't understand how this has happened to me. I'm hard working, have a great career, in good shape, yet I'm completely destitute social as if I'm a dreg of society and I have no clue what I'm supposed to even do about it. My dating app pools are dry with no pertinent matches to speak of. And yeah, not having a romantic life is a real bummer and all but I don't even have FRIENDS to speak of. It's to the point where my study sessions haven't even been effective the last couple days because I'm so restless with zero social interaction!

Nah, I do watch porn frequently I'm ashamed to admit. But viewing porn and going to the club are isolated from each other. Porn I just watched for the pleasure and it's purely carnal. Where as I go to the club for companionship, validation and platonic touch (of which the benefits have been scientifically proven), I'm not really going to the club to get my rocks off. I think everything else you said is spot on 🙂 I was just thinking last night that unlike getting into shape that took months of training or getting my certifications that took hours upon hours of studying, meeting someone could happen pretty much any day, it could even be next week I could end up having a chance encounter! Thanks for the encouragement.

I know they just want me for my money but that's the thing. I *know* that by paying them, genuine or not, I know I can be authentic and I'm going to be made to feel validated and cared about it and it just really puts me at ease. I don't plan on going back to the club anytime soon but staying out is a constant battle lol. Well when I say everyone I mean four people. Despite it being a big company I work on a small team with four other people, all married. Even in my old job it seemed like the vast majority of my co-workers were married. I'm against dating someone with more than one kid because with each additional kid there's more expenses. Additionally it turns the situation into a 2 v 1 to a 2 v 2 so it just makes it harder to divvy up responsibilities I'm not a very big drinker, at the club I'll have one glass of wine or just a water. Getting out of my comfort zone is something my friends have always been encouraging me to do and not something I do often. What made you feel happy about forcing yourself to those event if you don't mind me asking? Nah, asking co-workers doesn't work. Since I'm new I'd feel awkward asking and then I'm also risking alienating myself from a co-worker if the relationship goes awry.

Hey gang, some of you may recognize me from some of my previous posts. You may be surprised to hear, I'm doing quite well, for the most part! I've landed a great job working in IT, my family is doing okay and I'm in the best shape of my life and I've gotten conversational in Spanish! I've come such a long way. That's the good! The bad is that my romantic life is as dead as it's ever been and I feel like there is nothing I can do about it. My Tinder pool is all dried up, so is Bumble, with no viable matches. I know a big reason for it is that I live in a rural area. For my new job training, I spent two weeks up in the big city and I ended up with five quality matches, but after they found out how far away I lived they lost interest. In addition to living in small town I also have a severe cat allergy, I refuse to date someone with more than one kid and I'm not a very outgoing person... At all. Not to mention, I'm not really the leader type most women would want. I haven't been to the strip club in over a year now but EVERY night I have to fight the temptation to go. And as weird as it is to say, the strip club is the only place I feel like I really belong. As long as I A.) Give them money, B.) Don't try to violate them and C.) Don't stink, I know I'm going to be accepted there. Those strippers are the only people I feel like I can be myself around everyone else I'm around I always have to put on a mask and "be" something. All that being said it's not like I'm deeply depressed or that I'm bitter about all this, it just sucks I know I'm missing out and I feel like an outsider at work where everyone else is married or has kids or both. And here's my Kevin Durant head-ass with no wife/girlfriend, no pets and no kids lol and I'm just not sure what to do about it. This job is wayyyyy too good to me for me to consider moving. I've been through the ringer of ***ty employers, I ain't trying to go back.

How long to wait before deeming yourself ghosted/done with?
Krombopulos replied to Krombopulos's topic in Dating Advice
So after about a week of ghosting she finally responded. Said she never meant to ghost me, thanked me for the dates, wished me the best of luck and ultimately said we don't have enough in common. Kinda wish she would have just stayed ghosted. "not enough in common" has been the end of my last three relationships, it's crazy. Opens up old wounds and insecurities. I wish I could just find someone who'd tell me what I need to change about myself and I could give it my best effort. Makes me feel like I'm like an alien or something because evidently I just have NOTHING in common with anyone. I'm torn between: A.) "I wish they'd just tell me what to change about myself and I'd try my best"There's not much about myself that I would refuse to change and I'd be happy to do if it meant having someone B.) Just saying *** it, listening to Andrew Tate speeches, committing all my free time to bettering myself and attempt to become Sigma. And even though I feel as if I want to live like that, at my core I don't think I'm capable. See point A for starters lol. I cry, I'm insecure, I'm risk avoidant, inconsistent and when I wake up from bad dreams I listen to weird ASMR in order to go back to sleep. Not exactly Sigma behavior. Guess I just have to just take things day by day and try to do the right things and follow the right habits. -

Yeah, we broke up back in June -

I've seen she's posted on Facebook multiple times while not responding to me. We slept with each other once, a little over a month ago -
I've been seeing a girl for three months, we've been super open with each other, have had a lot in common and just really seemed to click. The Saturday before last we had dinner together, had the normal extended conversation (it's normal for us to spend several hours just chatting). A couple days later she said she was sick so we didn't hang out last weekend. I texted her Saturday night and got no response. I texted her Sunday night with no response...? This really caught me off guard as I would have never thought she'd ghost me like this. Should I message her and ask if she's okay? Or should I just hop back on Tinder and try to move on?

I've never left my home state of Ohio. And everyone, everyone I tell this to is so shocked and always urging me to travel and see the world. I get it, see new places, interact with different cultures, try different foods etc but traveling is just so expensive I'd hate to spend all that money and not even have a good time. And here's where I really start to lose people, I'd rather take the money that I'd spend on traveling and go to the strip club with it because I almost KNOW I'll have a good time. I just feel like the praise and validation I receive there is better than "seeing the world" or whatever it is people see in traveling
