its so interesting that women really really believe this kind of guys’ problem is his standards are too high. this kind of guy does not interact with women, he does not go out, he does not get matches on the apps. he does not even have the opportunity to be “picky”
Men's so-called logical brains short-circuit bc they're so insecure. Her point is conventionally unattractive man (which includes being short) wants a beautiful wife while complaining women aim for men out of their league. Yet men read this as short = evil for some reason
@kiarakamn this doesn’t really address anything i wrote. if the guy is terminally online and has had his brain rotted by this place that’s almost certainly the reason he is alone, not his “standards being too high” which was the only point i was making
@hellspatisserie there are a lot of pretty good reasons you learn to “do” calculus before you start to learn pure mathematics, i would recommend just going through calculus 1, 2, and 3 on khan academy first
@glumiken the state I was in after my last breakup is the worst I've ever felt. I would say, be cautious of the people saying time will heal, I've seen people still hung up on exs 5 on. You need to investigate why you can't accept he wasn't who you thought he was.
@DejaRu22 one of the dumbest things someone has said to me was "I pretty much only read nonfiction, I don't get why you'd waste time on fake things." The incredible thing about art is that its very unreality is what lets twist itself and deliver it's message directly into you.
@gjonshkrimtari@Aella_Girl it depends on what kind of romance media the girl likes tho. It's really more about seeing the narratives/drama in life and leaning into it instead of seeing everything purely logically. I wasn't thinking about any of this at the time, just my best attempt explaining.
@gjonshkrimtari@Aella_Girl when I was a dirt poor warehouse worker I dated this super preppy girl for a while. I created a feeling of "we really shouldn't be doing this" by making fun of her background constantly, and then taking her on these spontaneous "poor people adventures" or stealing her flowers
