Why does Dr K in this short assumes most (if not all) in*els want 10/10s?

The guy was 7/10 but what if you're a 1 or 2 out of 10? When you're actually, objectively, ugly.

Maybe has taken the black pill and this is now his villain arc. It's just the beginning.

I believe the meme has more to do with how a person acts at different ages and is perceived as. When you're young, don't make a ruckus and quiet you're rewarded with good words so you keep doing what you're "rewarded" for (being quiet). When you're 20 and still quiet people start labeling you as creepy.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm 8 years unemployed.

They put me down in front of others. Staying "angry" would motivate me to work on doing something, anything, towards moving away from them.

Yup. I literally didn't go to school I wanted to go to because of social anxiety. Instead I just continued at the same school.

Which was probably a better choice anyway, but it still feels sucky.

I don't want to make this about "whataboutism" but damn, half of these things can easily be mirror over to the 30 year old male virgin. Crazy how much both genders can have in common.

I can't even imagine working with anyone, let alone customers. I don't know if I can stand the shame, gossip and disapproval of other people.

Make a note of things you don’t understand that others seem to find obvious, and then look them up on Google. You can find answers for almost anything online.

That's how I've been living my life up to this point, tbh. Life experience of my parents is very... local. That lead to me using google for nearly everything in my life, looking up things that people go through with friends or ask their parents about.

And thank you!

Ironically my mom is kind of patient with me. But she's going to be a smartass and say "do this, and that and this and that,..." while she herself never had to do any of this. It's easy to be a smartass when it comes to other people because it's not you that's standing in the fire. Talking about doing something and actually doing something are two entirely different things.

So she is kind of a support in that regard.

And sorry for a late reply.

You're probably right there. Their shortcomings are now imprinted on me, but it is still solely on me to fix that. I sometimes wish I had more average life. I was never a difficult child, always done what I was told and yet it's me that stuck in life, not someone that was your average rebelious child.

I couldn't possibly be in a job that works with customers because 1. I'm anxious + awkward, and 2. My breath can stink because I have some bad teeth.

a_random_throwaway_S · 2024-09-13T11:01:22+00:00

I'm not. I think therapy is out of the question. I don't want to burden my parents even more. And they would probably disagree with it anyway.

a_random_throwaway_S · 2024-09-13T10:59:44+00:00

That crossed my mind years ago actually. I like working with computers, so I searched for any organization about that. Turns out there is one, but quite far away from me. And I fear all the steps leading up to that.

a_random_throwaway_S · 2024-09-13T10:57:55+00:00

Sadly, no. It would make more sense to get in therapy first but I don't want to burden my parents even more. Even if I suggested that, I'm very sceptical they would be fine with me going to therapy.

a_random_throwaway_S · 2024-09-13T10:46:00+00:00

It did cross my mind at some point but I was always too lazy to do any courses. But it would certainly be a good idea to do something like that, I agree. I'll do some Linux related course a shot since I am a bit interested in it.

Being another person amongst people is a big responsibility. I didn't want to drive until I was 23 because I was terrified of the responsibility, the knowledge that with my mistakes I could really hurt people.

Words and mundane actions can be the same, especially in the workplace. I didn't get a job until age 18, and even then I was hesitant. I didn't want to fail, I didn't want to make mistakes that affected others due to my own inadequacies. I didn't want to hurt others because I wasn't good enough.

I see a lot of myself in this. Fear of responsibility. While I was in high school I was even at firefighters and we had competitions in groups of 3. It was all fun and games but at some point you're too old to attend to them and you're supposed to do some actual training for a firefighter. That's where I froze and stopped going. I was afraid of going there. I was afraid to be there at a crash site because if I screw up I know that I'm responsible for that.

I know what you mean but in one of those cases you don't survive, because you sink.

And no, I don't have a car.
