why are you still single - and general discussion of the dating game

I am either at work or home helping my parents. being around people is exhausting and I hate going out. I'd like to be in a relationship but after my experiences with women so far I'd rather be alone than be with another lying, cheating, psycho. Tried online dating but whatever women want I don't have. So I focus on my hobbies and have accepted the fact that I'm going to die alone. Probably by suicide once I can't take care of myself.
 
I stay at home, or I'm at the gym.
As a fit prettyboi, the people that tend to be into me are old creeps or just plain ugly and chubby people aka gay incels expecting someone fat hotter than them. Even though it's the old creeps that tend to rage at me for not wanting to touch them even with a pitchfork. Basically those that are undesired and desperate enough to take everything.

Honestly, my only claim is that they are nice to look at, don't fuck niggers/troons. And don't fucking ghost me after meeting. The woke gays are absolutely retarded, but so are the right-leaning too. So I'm fine with a fwb.

My hunting grounds are on grindr though.
 
I just dgaf like I used to.
Bigger issue is relationships and love don't feel the same way as when I was in my teens or early 20s and when you ultimately weigh the benefits of being in a relationship and the benefits of being single, losing the ability to feel hopelessly attached to someone pretty much swings the scales in favor of being single.
 
If only people stopped staring at social media and consooming the next Youtube/FB/Tiktok video, maybe I would have considered it. Other than that, people are too focused to DA NEW MEDIA and other genres I am not interested in.
 
I was too busy with studying and video games in college, and I didn’t care about dating before then. Now dating locally doesn’t work because of how “progressive” and “diverse” my area is, and online dating hasn’t been effective because the girls who share my political and religious values typically have no interest in my hobbies (and vice-versa), and the girls who share my hobbies are so detached from my values that I’m simply not interested in them romantically. Combine that with the few long-lasting friendships I did have ending poorly, and it’s led to me being very anxious when it comes to dating. I do want to get married and have kids, and every non-social aspect of my life is fine, but I’m too worried that I’ll make the wrong choice in deciding who to spend the rest of my life with.
 
Because I find it VERY hard to trust anyone, I regard each new person I meet as a potential enemy / threat and can do nothing about it. I can be friendly and rather sociable, hell I am even often appointed to lead some project or do presentations because I really can can pull it off. But anything more meaningful or deep? Lol no, I feel like being in a sieged fortress. All my friends are people whom I know 20+ years and modern word needs you to act fast, like meet fast, fuck fast. No one wants to hit the brakes for a bit and just get to know each other, and I can't form any serious relationships otherwise.

Yes, I sound like an old archaic shit that will probably die alone.
 
There's a few reasons.

I like to take more time to get to know someone before deciding whether or not I want to date. Had a few bad relationships in my late teens, got cheated on, and that, among other fun life lessons, has left me wary of people to the point that many have difficultly getting to know me and could, at least initially, say I'm quite aloof. Moreover, I've just never known people who started dating the same week they met stick together for more than one to three months.

The second point being that most women, at least those where I live, just aren't worth the effort. Sometimes I find one who catches my interest, or I catch her's, but then learn that she just wants a guy to help cover debts, loves her dog(s) so much I'm left thinking about a certain song by Rusty Cage, wants an unpaid live-in therapist because she has some form of unresolved trauma, or that she's just plain fucking insane. Everyone brings baggage into a relationship, myself included, but there are limits and standards; I come to the Farms to gawk and laugh at retards, I do not need to live with one.

The biggest factor is that a relationship just isn't a major goal for me at the moment. While it would be nice to find someone who suits me and can handle my unusual personality, I have hobbies and other interests which keep me occupied and satisfied with life.
 
All men are rude to each other. It's how we separate out the weak. We troll each other IRL.
I really wish more people actually understood this. Being toxic as fuck is the highlight of work. It's only not funny if there's something wrong with you. If getting roasted at work doesn't make everyone including you laugh, then you are working with some uptight motherfuckers and you need to GTFO.
 
I'm terrified of women romantically. I can interact and speak with women completely fine, I can handle friendships, having female superiors and women working under me, but I just can't communicate with a woman that has expressed interest in me, I just shut down. Same if I have an attraction to someone, I'll purposfully go out of my way to avoid contact with them and sometimes I wont even be able to hold eye contact or even look at them. Probably autism or something but fuck if I'll ever talk to some faggot psych about it.
 
By choice. After awhile you figure out who you are and generally I prefer to be alone working on my projects and passions while keeping a healthy lifestyle.

It wasn't like this before though as I was generally codependent on being around groups and other people for social interactions including my dating life which just really ended up we me being more a tool. The wake up call came around 2020 when all my friends stopped communicating with one another and we really all asked ourselves what we wanted out of life which of course didn't mesh well with each other either it being maturity of childish pettiness of who you choose to accompany.

Its been quiet but I enjoy building myself up to leave a better legacy for myself and my future family. I just don't settle for less, but I can't have high standards if I don't also put in the work. Sure the dating scene is a bit corrupted now, but its still possible to find someone with good values.
