If someone wants to give up dating due to their looks, age or genetics (that includes mental state) that’s a totally valid reason if you ask me. As long as it doesn’t translate to misogyny no one will get hurt. However a lot of people seem to be ticked off by this idea, why?
You first.
It’s about the reason for choosing to be single. When you talk about how you won’t date anymore because of your looks, people will take exception to that.
Stopping dating because of looks sounds misogynistic. It implies all women are superficial, which is simply not true. I know several cases of men that could be seen as ugly for different reasons, who had no problem to find a partner thanks to their personality.
Well personally I think all people are secretly superficial in that regard. Both men and women, whether they’re aware or not.
That’s because that’s how you see the world. It’s hard for you to comprehend someone else not thinking the same way you do.
That’s the problem, people are very diverse. Look around yourself for examples of couples (in real-life, not online), and I’m sure you’ll find many examples of “ugly” people of all genders being in happy relationships. I know a guy with a facial deformation in relationship with a beautiful woman, I know a seriously fat couple. The forever single people I know mostly have severe mental or personality issues.
Yeah… Because that’s not healthy at all.
It can be healthy if it helps you get in shape.
Getting in shape won’t make you think you’re less ugly, you’ll just find different things to obsess over until you find something you can’t change.
Dysmorphia is a mental illness issue.
You can be ugly, or out of shape, or any of those things, but the idea that you are so uniquely, supremely ugly that you can’t make up for it in other ways is literally just internet idiots being idiots and not touching enough grass.
I’ve seen men with very obvious deformities happily married with kids, I’ve seen perfectly toned bodybuilders being (correctly) snubbed for being insecure dickheads, I’ve seen perfectly average dudes dating models, looks matter but not the way you think they do.
Get out of your head, get treatment if you truly have these feelings of immeasurable ugliness because they are a legit sign of treatable mental illness, and for the love of christ go out and make some normie friends, you clearly need them.
Normies are happy not because they “don’t get it” but because they are typically pretty well adjusted and average, while your online friends are just like you: a bunch of toaster fuckers who met in the toaster fucker forums reinforcing eachother’s obsession with dicking down toasters.
If the only reason you get healthy is for someone else I would argue that’s still not healthy
Yo are you here for answers or just to debate everyone and be all confrontational?
I think you know the answer to that.
