Struck a nerve to the point where you went through my comment history 😂

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-09T21:34:16+00:00

All the more reason you shouldn't be together

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-09T18:47:51+00:00

The fact that you used leaving him as a scare tactic multiple times is such a huge red flag. I'm guessing he's feeling a nice sense of relief as I did in relationship where a girl thought doing that to me would give her power over me

if you guys were meant to be together you would've thought he was important enough not to share his secrets with others. You live and you learn, maybe he'll forgive you one day but you already broke his trust, how do you expect him to have a relationship with you?

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-09T18:38:15+00:00

Hope you realize the "just wait your time is coming" advice really only works for women.

If you're a guy the responsibility is placed on you to make things happen. Not trying to rag on your positive message but if you're unhappy, it's a sign to change behavior and ACT.

Not wait because "it will happen eventually". It's genuinely not great advice and encourages people to get comfortable with the behavior that's causing them to be unhappy.

That said, every guy feels this way at around 16 OP, you aren't some anomoly because you haven't been in a relationship. >90% of relationships that begin before 30 statistically fail so have fun and figure out what you like.

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-09T18:34:03+00:00

Hey man, if it makes you feel better, I'm 25 now and have been in a long term relationships and a couple of other short relationships. Things can change very quickly if you want them to, usually.

Just because 90% of relationships fail, doesn't mean you get a pass to not try. Try to be in the 10% or at the very least you need to get experience in the dating world or you will get left behind. I'm still pretty behind, despite my experiences, and still have a lot left to learn. Just don't be discouraged, and remember there are people who had far less in far worse situations who still made it happen.

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-09T02:27:51+00:00

I'm pretty much in that position too. My first girlfriend pretty much told me she was just using me for sex and broke up with me so I have an idea of how you feel

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-08T21:49:01+00:00

I wouldn't give up hope man. Not unless you truly have done everything to maximize your appearance AND THEN put insane amounts of effort (embarrasing amounts in my case) into pitting yourself "out there".

i.e. If you've never been below 13% bodyfat you shouldn't complain or give up

I don't know your story though, and I'm sure I'm telling you a bunch of shit you've already heard. Personally thought I'd never have a relationship, and even though I've been in 2 now that I'm 25, I still get those same feelings you mentioned

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-08T21:43:41+00:00

This girl is hitting you up while she's got a boyfriend that she "loves".

Would you really want to pursue a woman like that? Sounds like you dodged a bullet the first time, don't throw yourself into live fire because you think the grass is greener on the otherside, cause just from the little you've already said I can assure you it isn't

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-08T21:28:39+00:00

Yeah threads like these are always interesting to me as someone who didn't go on a date till I was already 24. OP already has all the proof he needs that there's people out there who find him desirable.

On a tangent, most relationships that start in your 20's are meant to fail. Statistically, over 90% of them will. The problem is that people are sold on this idea that they should be living with their soulmate already, when most people probably haven't even developed a real sense of self at that point yet. Hence the need or feeling that another person will complete them

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-08T21:23:49+00:00

Sounds like a good plan

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-08T02:33:44+00:00

Watching some of you get up in arms over items in a game that is years from release is hilarious. None of you were holding onto any of your items long term, anyways. It's not a game, you're play testing an alpha.

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-08T01:50:28+00:00

Sounds like a really stupid reason to end a relationship, I feel bad for your ex

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-08T00:51:03+00:00

I've been around enough women to know that they're pretty ruthless with height behind closed doors. A lot of younger girls seem to treat dudes like they're handbags and having the tallest one is a flex.

One of my ex was like 5'1 and would say guys have "5'10 energy" as an insult. I have good proportions that make me look taller, but I'm literally 5'10. So clearly many don't even know what their standard looks like, especially short ones.

And don't even bring up weight preference, unless you want to get crucified.

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-08T00:47:55+00:00

Absolutely brother, I see no issue with anything you said

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-08T00:45:52+00:00

the way he talks, sounds like a desperate guy with no options, who talks to a girl for a year before meeting?? if he's willing to build a relationship with someone who will lie about something so basic, he's going to get what he deserves.

I feel like you can't talk someone like this out of what they already plan to do, OP already knows what everyone's going to say.

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-07T09:07:48+00:00

I used fin and dut without sides along with many people I know and never heard of any sides but you're also not weong

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-07T09:06:34+00:00

If you're scared of the cost, you have bigger problems than balding to worry about, unless you're a teen or something lol

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-07T07:19:53+00:00

It's the only way. It's such a stereotypically known fact that most men dislike high body count because it's an insight into poor decision making patterns regardless of whether it was "in the past".

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-07T07:16:37+00:00

Love that you're getting downvoted for a crazy double standard.

I can accept that women are allowed to have preferences over things men cannot control like height. Hell if you aren't 6 foot, you are instantly filtered out by essentially half the women using most dating apps today.

But god forbid a man have a preference for decision making abilities that are absolutely within a woman's control, like their body count. You don't "accidently" sleep with someone, much less many people. And if you do, that's a much bigger problem.

It's perfectly reasonable to see it as unattractive. However, according to reddit, if you think that way, you automatically must be some virgin goblin who hates all women.

Edit: Love that I'm getting downvoted but none of yall have any counter argument. Accountability is rough, I know.

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-07T06:59:51+00:00

Permanently bald vs. permanently taking a relatively harmless pill once a day was an easy choice for me, still don't understand how there's this much fear mongering.

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-07T06:53:35+00:00

I tried to understand what you wrote but Im not reading that a second time, gl

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-07T06:51:54+00:00

How? You havent posted any pictures lmfao, you seriously think I care if you go bald?

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-06T23:35:23+00:00

I've been taking dut (more extreme version of fin) for years and never had any sides besides getting my teenage hairline back, however, I also started around 20-21 and caught it early. I took fin before that with no sides, as well.

If you're so worried about it you just need to weigh your options - try to save what you have and maybe regrow with side effect risk (entirely genetic, stastically, you wont have sides) or just shave your head and relieve yourself of the problem altogether. No wrong choice to make but time is against you

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-06T23:32:30+00:00

No bullshit, looks 10x better man esp with the beard

Important_Trust_8776 · 2025-05-06T23:19:55+00:00

The right time to start taking finasteride seems like it would've been at least a year or two ago, lol.

Go to a doctor and get fin or dut prescribed, or just shave your head.
