    1. * Be young man
      * Try hard to impress and pursue women
      * Find relationships, but unhappy lopsided ones where you feel like you want your partner more than they want you
      * Get sick of it, stop pursuing
      * Be single
      * Sucks, because society thinks single men are losers
      * Gradually learn how to make yourself happy, care less about what society thinks
      * Become genuinely happy and satisfied with your lifestyle, living for yourself and not others
      * Women start being attracted to you and approaching you because you’re confident and established
      * FUCK

      I find it interesting that when I was interested in a relationship, the environment was a desert.

      But now that i have been on the “the answer is no, I don’t care who it is” boat for four years now (and maintain boundaries to preserve that), it’s the opposite.

      Que the Palpatine meme: “ironic”

      According to other reddit posts shes not showing interest in you, shes just doing her job.

    4. No, that woman at starbucks did not show interest in you, OP. They just want you to pay for the coffee you ordered

    5. I am very happily single. I am living my best life. They new guy at work asked me about myself and I explained I’m A sexual don’t date and never have I been happier in my life. And he goes I hope you figure things out and get the relationship you deserve. Like Sir I am the relationship I deserve, did you not hear me just explain that. Lol

      Same here except more just I’m content being alone and sad and suddenly some fucker reminds me some people are happy and has to give me false hope

    7. Connections show up most when you stop searching for them because you’re no longer radiating need, pressure, or performance. You’re simply living your life and that naturally makes you more authentic, confident, and emotionally safe to be around.

      The flower doesn’t chase the bee; it simply blooms.

    8. I wanna be in a relationship without the problems that being in a relationship causes lol

      Like no I don’t wanna have to sacrifice my life for someone

    9. This happens. Personally whats worse is when she is not the one and she leaves thats when you hit the real low and so difficult to make it back to who you were before.

    10. I’m fine with being single, but eventually I still wanna find a guy to show interest towards. Maybe one day

      I only just started being happy with how I was single but what’s funny is the second that happened my girlfriend confessed to having feelings for me, honestly couldn’t be happier but its kinda funny that happened

      The last one still costs me 800 dollars a month. So yes I very much react like Dwight

    13. That’s usually when you’re most likely to meet someone. People actively trying to date can look too desperate which can be off putting.

      Basically, if you look hungry, you’ll starve.

      My friends trying to set me up with shitty dates because they can’t be happy without being in a relationship and think I’m lonely and need to be in one too…

      I love myself enough to be content with my own company and friendsfamily. I’m in my early 30s. I don’t want to be in a relationship just to be in one. Been there done that with people I really wasn’t interested in seeing long term. Just caused more stress than joy

    15. The worst part is that I’m so comfortable in my own space and at peace that the prospect of a relationship makes me want to run away at olympic speeds; (i have severe commitment issues and have recently come to terms with that I’m better off alone)
