@sivori Funny how easily one imagines he has escaped his “time.” Notice how even “transformation” often just means becoming a better-optimized version of the same thing… it’s all cope, but I think the stoic’s at least coped better
@aruvinchan This isn’t realistic, though. about 5% of single men go on 10+ dates a year; half go on zero. You’d have to be player supreme to make that strategy work. And I bet most men talking like this are lying.
@fredsoda@WestsideLAGuy Money and Education matters. You really want to have kids with a dummy? And damn, sometimes it feels good to NOT have to work. The key is finding the right high earning partner. Don’t buy into the meme
@WestsideLAGuy Dude. Nobody really knows anything about her except that she’s a doctor. What’s the point of insisting she settles? Bad for her and the guy she ends up settled for
@Holden114 Consider your friend lucky. Being single beats a sexless marriage. Pressuring someone to be attracted to a person they’re not into really just makes everyone worst off
@WestsideLAGuy There’s no good options here. Think about it: would you settle for someone you’re not attracted to? Suppose you did, would your partner feel happy about that?
@dystopiangf Some of the responses to this unfortunately prove that many men are hopelessly autistic: they are just unable to see things from another vantage point. If you’re unable to settle for someone you find unattractive, what makes you think women would do the same.
@therealjayber lol. Come on man. Your advice can be reduced to 3 maxims: Get as studly as possible + Go for women less attractive than you + No first dates. You do realize that attractive women = 7+. So basically your advice to an incel 5 is to just be an 8 😂. How’s that better than FWP
