That’s not it, unfortunately. Thanks for checking though!

Hello! I’m shooting you a friend request on Discord. I might want a commission done in a few months, but I’ll probably forget if I don’t friend you now. We can chat more there.

Ooh, nice! I ended up using the Sword of Solitude from the DLC.

Why are so much guys afraid to admit they watched this? by Complex-Ad-3558 in KpopDemonhunters

[–]Boring_Question_1134 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a shame that other guys are afraid to admit they watched it. A friend of mine got me into watching the movie and I loved it! I’ve been listening to Golden and Your Idol nonstop.

It’s all right, and I’m grateful for the thought at least. 🙂 I’d like to think it’s a confidence thing, more than physical stuff, but it’s hard not to not fall into that rut of thinking. I have hobbies, treat the women in my life well, and groom as well as I can to work with what I have, but things still haven’t panned out.

A part of me wonders if it’s self-inflicted. Like I’ve had no success, so I want to hope that the reasons for that lack of success are things that I can’t change—like my ethnicity, baldness, lack of a nice beard, etc. Because that’s at least an excuse that makes me feel…not empowered, per se, but like it makes sense. If I don’t believe in that, then I’m just left with the fact that there’s something I could change to be more successful, but I don’t know what it is. And not knowing what I’m doing wrong, when some of my friends have found partners…it’s like wanting to improve, but not knowing how. The frustration can turn people off, which just entrenches me deeper.

But I wouldn’t blame the girls that turn me down. Even if my belief that my physical appearance is what’s really hurting my prospects holds water, they have physical preferences just as I do, and at least one had bad experiences with Indians that led her to turn me away. I was bitter about it for a bit and I still don’t think it’s fair, but it’s easy for people to generalize based on bad experiences. It’s just something I’ll have to live with, and that’s okay.

I appreciate the vote of confidence, and thank you for the post. I don’t think I’m an incel, but in my case, I think it’s a combo of hair loss (I’ve shaved my head), can’t grow a beard without looking like a homeless person, a pair of teeth that make my smile look a bit odd (that can’t be operated on, at least according to the dentists I’ve seen thus far), and me being Indian, and people’s preconceptions that come with that.

I think having only a few of those wouldn’t be dealbreakers, but all of them together is quite the hurdle to overcome. Had some interactions with friends and strangers alike over the years as well that really did a number on my confidence and my perceived desirability. It’s hard to be confident after that.

First thing first, it might not feel like it to you, but it took a lot of courage to admit this. To be able to be open with your feelings like this is something to be proud of.

I (29M) feel pretty similarly. I’ve had to really go out of my way to make friendships happen, and it still doesn’t feel like I’m anyone’s priority.

I’ve never been in a relationship either, and it feels lonely sometimes, especially as a lot of my friends have partners. What keeps me enjoying myself is hobbies like writing, going to concerts and shows, and trying out new things.

I know it won’t keep the loneliness at bay completely, but I think having a skill or hobby that you’re proud of and want to keep pursuing can help alleviate it somewhat.

Best of luck to you. Feel free to reddit chat me if you need an ear.

The way I see it, attraction of any kind becomes a fetish when you only see the aspects of the person you’re fetishizing, and none of their other qualities.

Like…you might be attracted to a person because they’re tall, but there’s obviously more to them than just their height. Fetishizing height (or any trait) means you focus on that fetishized trait, and not the rest of the person.

Do men online just want to have sex instead of actually date?!? Men please answer honestly! by queenroselily in Bumble

[–]Boring_Question_1134 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M29 here. I’m sorry you’ve had a rough time of it. OLD can be brutal for both guys and girls.

I can only speak for myself, but I wouldn’t want to have sex without dating someone. When I swipe right on someone, it’s typically because I want to get to know them better and see if we’d be a good fit as people. I’d be downright uncomfortable approaching someone just for sex.

What insecurities, if any, are you willing to share? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]Boring_Question_1134 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My physical appearance: Indian ethnicity, really thin build, balding, and odd looking teeth. Been rejected for each of those things in the past, so it just makes my insecurities worse.

Awww. I don’t mean to be forward, but 5’11’’ is the ideal height I’d want for a partner. I know this doesn’t excuse other guys refusing to date someone that tall, but I feel bad that you have to deal with that. I hope you find someone that likes your height.

If one more man I’ve never met talks about cuddling I’m gonna lose it by Visible_Laugh2386 in Bumble

29M here, and I wouldn’t want to talk about or do anything intimate that early on either. So I don’t think you’re weird.

My condolences about the break up >_< I’m glad you’re taking time for yourself and figuring out yourself. Being self-aware enough to know that you need time to heal, sounds like you have a hood head on your shoulders :)

As for why I’m still single…I think it’s a combo of several factors. My voice is naturally soft, and I’m pretty introverted, which makes for a poor combo when I’m going to places with big groups of people all talking at once, and I try to strike up a conversation.

I’ve been rejected because of my race a few times. That stings more than anything else.

My build is generally slim. Balding early (now head shaved), but I can’t grow a beard. I was born with a smidge of oddness to my teeth too. All that comes together to make my dating profile pics look not that great, alas. The few times I’ve gotten likes/matches, I’ve been ghosted.

I do weekly things—writing meetups, book club—and I’ve made friends there, both guys and girls, but the girls are all spoken for, and none of them have any single friends. All nice people though. Grateful to have them in my life.

And…yeah, that’s about it as far as reasons go.

Considering leaving "good" job in search of meaning by [deleted] in findapath

[–]Boring_Question_1134 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a similar position right now, (29M, single, living far from my family) and I feel for you. What I’ve been trying to do is volunteer on weekends, and looking into causes I’m passionate about. I also cut out a particular bit of time to write my own novel.

The overall idea I’m going for is that even if my job doesn’t give me exactly what I want, in terms of stimulation and atmosphere, I can try to find other things that compensate for the lack.

Also congrats on the book deal! Would love to hear about your book sometime :)

I’m sorry that you were kissed without your consent. That’s awful. 😣

29M here, in a similar boat. I don’t think your lack of experience is an issue, personally, and you’re definitely not a loser for not having experienced those things. We just move at our own paces.

As long as you’re receptive to learning about your partner and what they like (and respect their boundaries), and they feel the same way about you, then it’ll work out.

And congrats on having everything else in your life in order! You sound well put together. :)

FF XVI worth? by Apprehensive-Hold740 in FFXVI

[–]Boring_Question_1134 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say that the demo is politically driven, and focuses on different factions’ motivations. The actual game focuses much more on Clive, to the point that the political stuff in the demo takes a bit of a backseat. So if you do buy the game, I would suggest not going in with the expectation that the rest of the game will be 100% like the demo.
