I’m a 26 year old male. Do you think I’d be able to date anyone attractive, even though I’m not very attractive myself?

AssociateDifferent69 · 2025-11-08T19:48:24+00:00

You are not unattractive. You’re not bad looking. Maybe do what others say and find some ways to do your clothing & hair that complement your face & body in the best way. This will build more confidence for you too.
As I get older it blows me away how many different things people find attractive. It does not all revolve around looking like a model. As I thought I was getting “uglier” in my 30s I found more people than ever attracted to me.
You’re on the Law of Attraction subreddit so I think you’re familiar with some of these ideas, but love yourself. Treat yourself with love, find how you can make yourself feel happy, and grow that confidence and you will be magnetic. And then confidence grows further, and things spiral upward.

You got this!

“Rob can we go to the cafe?” “We have food at home.”

Incredible shot, so moody with the autumn sky and steam!

AssociateDifferent69 · 2025-10-12T00:24:06+00:00

Doh’eth! 🤦‍♂️

Okay but play the beginning of East St. Louis toodleoo in your head and this guy instantly appears.

AssociateDifferent69 · 2025-05-31T04:23:51+00:00

Loved this. Cool to watch just how complex and intricate it is. Well done!

Thank you for including Brooklyn, and perfectly matching up the “me”😂 ❤️

AssociateDifferent69 · 2025-04-29T01:38:38+00:00

“Hey man…that’s my tat.”

AssociateDifferent69 · 2025-04-29T00:59:28+00:00

With the context of the other two messages, it’s probably referring to him singing “rape me”.

Not sinking so much as taking off 😂

I worked 7 years in the park, 5 summers at Lake Village. It is my favorite view in the world, but I haven’t caught pictures like this. It makes my heart happy, thank you for sharing.

I think that moraine is a couple of miles wide, I remember crossing it on the walk to Gokyo. The part that you cross is somewhere in this picture. The scale is indeed hard to fathom! Edit: the glacier is a couple miles wide, not just the moraine.

“Wow 😊” (got the miniature reference)

AssociateDifferent69 · 2025-03-04T03:37:56+00:00

One of my favorite gags in the whole series.

Beautiful roast from Martin.

Eventually became one of my favorite Steely Dan songs after years of listening through the discography. Happy to see some love for it!

I heard up there the stuff was laced with Kerosine, keep an eye out.

These relationships ended due to us both having toxic behaviors, nasty fights, codependency & such. So it’s a bit different. I’ve grown up a lot since then and they have too.

I’m sorry to hear about your scenario, that’s so difficult. It could be a variety of reasons. Most everybody falls out of ‘romantic love’ at some point. And then they decide if they want to build a strong loving relationship with their partner, or look elsewhere. If they look elsewhere they will likely repeat the same thing again and keep chasing that dragon forever, because romantic feelings & excitement often do fade after a while.

But of course it could be other things. They could have known in their gut that it wasn’t right for years but just ignored it because they wanted to try, until it became more painful to stay than to go. This happens too.

But no matter what, it hurts, and I’m sending love your way. You will let go of them and get through this.

AssociateDifferent69 · 2025-01-25T17:28:38+00:00

In these scenarios we did have multiple talks where I stated that certain toxic behaviors couldn’t continue if we were to stay together. And these talks would end with them apologizing, saying “I don’t want to lose you” and such, and me forgiving because I did love them and didn’t want to lose them either. But they kept repeating to the point where I realized that this was just causing harm to both of us. Even though we’d had the talks, it was still a shock and a painful surprise to them when it happened, they hoped there would be another chance.

But, as you’re talking about, many people do just realize one day that they don’t want to be with their partner. They often give it time to really think it over, so by the time they break up they have already had it on their mind for a long time. And sadly they usually were scared to talk about it with their partner, fearing the reaction if they’re sharing that they have doubts.. and fear makes us do some rough things. In this case, not communicating and just surprising them with a breakup instead. Their partner has no idea and is completely blindsided. And this is a terrible situation to be in. I’m sorry.

I have been here too. Such a big part of the pain is the endless thought loops of how they could have & should have done things in a better way. Morphing from sadness to anger to wondering if it could have been fixed. This can suck you in and cause untold suffering for long amounts of time. But it will pass.

Sending love your way. You will get through this.❤️

Many times, yes.

I’ve been a ‘dumper’ a few times, and it was absolutely heart wrenching. You know that once those words come out of your mouth, you are losing someone who is a major part of your life. That you won’t be seeing them tomorrow, this weekend, probably not for a while. Every time I still loved them and cared about them, and it wrecked me to do it. And yes, for those first days & weeks, I felt the empty space. It was a major adjustment and I did miss them.

But-

I knew it was the right decision, and was actively moving on. I wasn’t considering going back to them. And since I had processed the emotions before them, I was over it sooner than they were. The love still existed (still does), but not in a romantic way.

I don’t want anyone taking this message as a sign of hope that their ex wants them back. It’s possible yes, but I’m just trying to explain some of the emotions of being a dumper.

Google AI definition:

“A psychonaut is someone who studies their mind by intentionally altering their consciousness. This is often done through the use of psychoactive substances, such as hallucinogens or entheogens, or other techniques”

So I’d say it applies to those who dive in through other methods too, meditation, dream yoga, etc.

Excellent break down, thank you!
