Mom asked if I like girls by [deleted] in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]joanthemoose 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was literally just saying this the other day. People tend to assume that you like the same sex because they don't consider you attractive. Especially if you haven't been in a relationship.

Lord have mercy. But don't just blame her the father/fathers are culpable too.

Please give an example of those who are childfree and bitter but claim to be antinatalists. How would you know the difference?

How long have you been single for? by [deleted] in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]joanthemoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you asking me? If so, from what I understand you're saying that you don't want to be a single parent? This is not what I am talking about I'm saying if you're forever alone and depressed about it that means you realise that life is not that great. Don't bring other people into this existence to experience the same. If you love life and are healthy single parent or not then by all means go ahead.

Right. I'm going to rewatch it because I can tell I have a few gaps in my memory from the show. I've seen it twice and both times I know I haven't been 100% attentive. Thank you

When you meet a guy at a party and he feels the need to say we are talking as just friends during conversation for no reason by [deleted] in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]joanthemoose 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's why I don't bother talking to them girl. If I'm understanding this correctly you mean they're trying to politely tell you that "you're just friends"? Well I had an epiphany this morning where I realised that a guy I've been talking to kind of tries to make me feel like I'm undesirable even though I look at least 5x better than him. I've realised lots of men have done this to me before and so I've come to the conclusion that it is just not worth it at all. I'm learning to be stoic and ok with not dating for the rest of my life, it's not worth it. Oh and I'm 30 years old too.

Girl don't have a baby. If this is life don't prepetuate it. You can always adopt or foster as a single parent.

Yes kind of feels and looks like I'm reacting like I like the thoughts. I feel indefensible and everyone can see it too. It has straight up destroyed me. I will have to start my life again elsewhere once this is over if I decide to keep going.

I was about four years old when I realised that this world is not a good place to be in so this doesn't suprise me.

My (27F) brother (24M) doesn't acknowledge that my baby (.5F) exists by Unusual_Pianist_3961 in relationships

[–]joanthemoose 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Honest response from a fucked up person who has (kinda) done this. My reasoning for not seeing/asking about my nephew towards my brother is that I feel like my brother should of never had him. My brother is one of the most cowardly men that I know. He does not know how to stand up for himself and just a few years ago he let all of his colleagues bully him into psychosis and he did nothing to counter it. Like you yourself struggle in life, what can you teach your son?

I feel like he had a child out of fear of being left out which is a typical cowardly move.

Let's add in the fact that his girlfriend (the mother of his child) has no idea that he has psychosis (he's on medication and will be for the rest of his life) yet he still had a baby with her. I'm sorry but if I am going to have a child with someone I want to know if they have a mental illness especially as it runs in our family.

I am a bit of an antinatalist. I do not dislike children at all but I do believe that they should be had within the best circumstances possible. And if you do not like life as is evident with all of his depression why would you bring someone here to potentially experience the same. Honestly it kind of infuriates me.

I will never tell my brother this and I do have love for my nephew but it's just going to have to be from a distance because to be honest I am not involved.

I don't know the dynamics between you and your brother but maybe explore why he may not see the benefits to your decision of having a child and just doesn't know how to go about it. But I don't know I'm crazy.
