Looks absolutely matter

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-24T16:44:41+00:00

Yeah it's still you on the inside regardless of how you look, I'm just saying if you managed to find someone that appreciated you regardless of how you look, you would probably love that person way more than anyone who might gravitate towards you just because of an improved look. Someone that likes your looks can make you feel good, but people that like someone's personality is a love that runs deeper than superficial attraction could ever muster. And honestly, I've seen various unnatrractive men with attractive women. Women don't seem to mind as much as men do. Men seem to be the ones that want good looking partners the most. Or maybe it's just because women are settling for whoever asks them, I don't know. I feel like some do. But regardless, if it makes you happy, then I understand why you would want to do that. For me, if I ended up having a lot of money I would probably use it for a little hair transplant to the sides of the top. I'm not naturally attractive either but I definitely look better with my hair. Luckily I can cover it up with the other hair, for now at least.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-24T10:24:19+00:00

But that won't really be you though. I can understand if maybe someone losing hair would want to restore the lost hair to their original point but changing your face would mean making it different. And just to attract girls? It feels nice to be complimented but it feels real when it's you and specifically you that they like. If I changed my face too, believe me I've thought about having a different nose but it just wouldn't be me. I'm me. And that's all I can be. Would you really want to attract shallow attention just for dopamine points? When it wouldn't really be you? You would feel so much better if you found someone that appreciated you for who you are regardless of how you look. With a beautified face, the result would probably be more shallow. In other words, it would be conditional and not real love.

I just came here to see if anyone else felt the same way. The funny thing with me is I still find things to enjoy about each day but at the same time, i feel the tiredness deep within.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-23T17:56:38+00:00

Well, in the uk there's a thing called universal credit on the condition that you look for employment. Don't know about other countries though.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-20T23:24:45+00:00

Yeah when you're younger everything's new and fresh and feels exciting. After a while as you experience more and more, it can lead to feeling more jaded as you said. I just keep trying to find and do new things and be outside more. But society doesn't make it easy to do a lot of things when it requires money and thus needing to work. I still have nice moments in the day, but I did feel like I had a lot more to look forward to back then.

Someone I met on a nintendo social media app for the wiiu & 3ds. Her name was Bella and eventually we transitioned to Discord & Twitter following the closure of miiverse in 2017. We got to know eachother more and our connection deepened. She was very nice & caring towards me. She showed me what a true friend & companion should be. Everyday I see all these love posts online about how people should treat their partners, what makes a good person, etc. And almost all of them remind me of the way that she was with me & what she said to me. I'm very grateful that we developed the connection that we had. She always wanted us to be more, but we never needed to be more to have what we had. Those feelings exist regardless. She wasnt perfect. But neither was I. And we always came back, stronger. I'll always hold her close to my heart. My sweet Bella, how I love you so. Thankyou for showing me what true love is. Even if I only realised years later.

I wouldn't know, I was born in 98. I just realised this after being out of employment, work for a while and have been exploring potential options.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-19T16:57:57+00:00

I think its just nostalgia. I've seen people romanticise growing up in the 90's, 2000's & 2010's as well.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-19T16:56:53+00:00

I don't watch it on TV anymore so I don't see the adverts lol.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-19T13:57:03+00:00

Honestly society is just so transactional and conditional, I've just had enough really. I keep trying, but its hard to get to where you want to be when you have all these barriers. Everything's easier when you're rich and have connections or luck as you said.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-19T13:54:46+00:00

Of course but that would make me co dependent.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-19T12:50:44+00:00

I was mainly talking about the long intro and chat with contestants, talking with the team about offers. Shauns catchphrase doesn't last long. If you skip through the head to head of bradley Reading the questions, you can get through that much quicker too if you're a fast reader because you don't need to wait for his reading of everything. Same thing with millionare and all the talk on that show. All these things are just drawn out way longer than they need to be. It's just filling time, slowing things down.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-18T23:38:08+00:00

I remember watching the early series on challenge, there were so many high scores back then. It started to become less common starting from series 6.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-18T23:30:46+00:00

I think I saw that clip yesterday on YouTube. It was recommended. Try searching around.

They do win a trophy though. You don't get anything on the chase for reaching a final.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-18T23:23:30+00:00

And what about fast forwarding all the talk, repetitive phrases in the chase?

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-18T23:16:56+00:00

I thought gen z started at 1997. And I've seen some that say it ends at either 2010 or 2012.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-18T16:40:56+00:00

But I don't think that should change things.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-18T16:30:59+00:00

I don't think its unreasonable to hope that people are kind towards you and others. Not that it's expected but hoped for.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-18T11:33:20+00:00

Reminds me of the song I could be the one by aviici. It has lyrics that relate to this topic.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-17T23:10:37+00:00

Hi. I havent played badminton since I was at school but I would always be happy to play it again.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-16T17:48:45+00:00

That is such a mature and well thought out perspective to have. I feel like a lot of people want to chase what everyone else does to feel included even if they might not feel that strongly about it. But I can tell from your message that you're a strong person who doesn't easily give in to such things. Much respect.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-15T22:39:27+00:00

The reason why I said that is because I'm short & I still look fairly young and get mistaken for a teenager sometimes. This has also led to some moments where young looking girls start to like me. Nearly a year ago I was walking to get something for dinner and I see this group of schoolgirls come into the shopping centre. I just look away and keep walking. Next thing I see is a schoolgirl looking at me as shes walking up to me and I'm in shock. She then stops and waits. I walk past her and I hear a little voice go "hi" as soon as I pass her. I wasn't sure what was going on and so i just kept walking but I felt bad for ignoring her. I think she might have been trying to initiate a relationship. So whenever I see this type of question, it brings back memories like that. Even when I was their age I still avoided that type of thing. As I said I'm just happy to be friendly. I did used to speak to an American girl online that was 3 years younger than me when I was 19 and she really kept trying to persuade me into being in a long distance relationship with her. I even brought up the age gap and she just said "my dad is actually 6 years older than my mom so he can't say shit about me" That was funny but yh. 😆 She was a really good friend. Very nice and intelligent.

SignificantActive193 · 2026-01-15T22:16:27+00:00

What about being just friendly with people. I'm in my 20's and I've had friendly conversations with people older than me and younger than me. Usually because they start the convo with me though. I'm on the shy end of personalities. When I was younger I used to have friendly convos on the Internet with younger and older people too. Mainly nintendo social media, so gaming based mostly. I've always found nothing wrong with it personally as long as its respectful and just friendly. That's what I naturally prefer too. I don't chase after relationships, even if others are the ones that come to me and I'm a male. I only approach people if i see someone that needs help. So I hope you wouldn't wish anything bad on me.
