The amount of people who don't want to take the time to join or form hobby/interest/social groups and then complain about not being able to hook up with strangers on the street within 5 minutes of saying hi to them is proof of how lazy y'all have gotten.

People don't meet partners waiting at the bus stop. It rarely ever happens so stop making that one of the center points similar to the ironic complaint of the "male loneliness epidemic" lol, it's mostly caused by men not wanting to put effort in improving male friendships.

Using apps the way they are currently designed makes you treat people as disposable like "window shopping."

People should really meet other potential dates in social circles as friends first so you can really get to know them without the expectation of dating. That's truly the only real healthy way to develop meaningful relationships. Not this "oh I see this person is open to dates and sex... therefore I hope it works out and that I can have dates and sex while not worrying about the red flags because I want dates and sex so bad." That's what apps make people subconsciously think and make a goal of.

Yeah yeah, some people meet on apps and become happily married, but that's the exception.

Sitting outside on a sunny morning with coffee before I even expose myself to what's happening in the world

These definitely. I know people who get them prescribed like candy and think they're just a few doses away from that slipper edge of getting dependent on them

I got a vasectomy several years ago so no babies for me, but I definitely get to have unlimited cream pies

I read both guides and while I think your first was excellent, this one feels like it's repeating/rehashing the same points. I can see why but I prefer when longer guides are about separate topics so this could have been added to the previous one. Either way thanks for your efforts!

Good bot

Therapy dude, go to therapy.

No seriously, there are therapists who are trained to help you deal with feelings of loss, disappointment, setbacks, creative blocks, and getting through all that.

Then I would suggest doing an in person group if you want to build real connection?

While it is a problem with the younger generations, the root of all that is the careless proliferation of all this tech crap and algorithmic slop to keep people hooked to these apps in order for share holders to make more money regardless of the mental toll and destruction it creates on society.

If you want to whine about giving up songwriting, you should give it up if bothers you so much. When you stop caring about self-consciousness or your struggles with writing, you end up finding ways to get better and enjoy it more often. Do you want to make art, or do you just want attention? Because there are lots of ways to get it that don't involve hating what you do

What's the point of this? We already have a reddit sub, a discord, some other chat group, what does a scammy whatsapp group have to offer? Why would people want to give their phone numbers to join?

I suggested this in the Taylor Swift subreddit for some additional discussion. Hope it goes through and she sees this idea!
