the only people who hate your bitchy, whiny, sorry for yourself shite more than myself and other OTers are the women you are trying to frick
Nailed it. Sorry to have inconvenienced you and the OT. If that’s you trying to push me off the edge, props to you. I think it’s time to be done. Good night to you and the OT. Hopefully this is my last post.

I feel almost as suicidal now as I did at the start. Everybody in here is right. Essentially, I’m pathetic. I’m a simp. No secret. I’m an extremely flawed individual with zero sense of where to go. I really wish I wasn’t such a bitch and would just take the last step.

Even if you find a woman who is willing to be with you and constantly reassure your insecurities for a while, it eventually becomes a self fulfilling prophecy if you continue with it. Reassuring an insecure person is draining and unsexy.
You are 100% right. I just don’t have faith I can change my stripes. I’m on the backside of my 30’s. I have so much emotional baggage. One day I’ll feel relatively complete, the next I’m broken. I hate living this life. I have fallen back into bad habits. Going to bed early. Mentally checked out at work. Not eating much.
Being lonely is probably the least of my worries. I’m all over the place. I probably shouldn’t be here either.

I don't know anything about OP in real life to say one way or the other, but the men I've known who are similar to what he describes with the latching on early.. were men who were like that with any woman they started talking to.
I’ve probably been like that with more than half the women I’ve talked to since divorce

I appreciate your posts more than you know. I’m very grateful for your encouragement. I’m sorry I call on folks like you so often. Hopefully, I can get to your level in time. I suppose I’m not a patient person in this situation.

I don’t enjoy talking about it, but there’s a reason I gave my gun to someone when this all went down. That’s not to say I couldn’t still do it. Judging by some on here, I’d be doing them a favor. My threads are too difficult to skip, so I guess eliminate the source.

What an odd reply. People are giving you harsh but true advice to help with your problem.
Advice, no matter how harsh, is welcome and needed.

How did that jump to TD not liking you or wanting you gone?
It’s clear I’ve stepped on the toes of some of our more prominent posters. Some would rather skip the advice and waltz into a thread they don’t like, just to slam the OP. I guess that’s how you fluff your post count, who knows?

its starting to annoy me
Fine. I get it.
I’ve met some great people on here. Apparently my hurdle in life is too much of an issue to discuss on here, an open forum. This place has been uplifting at times. Jim was right, 2 weeks. I should have known. No reason for me to continue spewing word vomit on here, essentially annoying the same folks over and over again.
Some posters start too many threads, some have a schtick, some are a joke altogether. I’m authentic, genuine, the real deal. But it’s not welcome here anymore. I get it. It’s not welcome much anywhere anymore, not sure why this place should be any different.
It’s clear I’ve crossed any boundaries there may be on this forum. I’d do an upvote/downvote to ask for what I should do on here, but I know the answer at this point.
Bye.

You need to stop feeling sorry for yourself constantly and stop telling everybody how bad you have it. I don't know you but I read the title and knew it was from you before even looking at the author.
Congrats I guess. I don’t want to feel bad for myself. I know I’m stepping on toes these days. Another poster said that you get about 2 weeks of sympathy before people move on.
Fact is, there’s plenty of people like me. It’s a cruel world when being honest and open gets you negative responses, be it here or in the dating world. That’s why I sometimes think it would be easier if I just took matters into my own hands and ended things.
At the very least, nobody on here would be subjected to my threads.

If you are that depressed about being single get on one of the dating apps and talk to one of the thousands of women who are desperately looking for someone to talk to and maybe take them on a date.
You think it’s that easy. I’m on 4 different apps. The algorithm in the apps puts popular profiles at the top. You stumble out of the gate, and you are screwed. It’s demoralizing swiping right on damn near everyone and getting zero matches day after day. Again, how do I not feel negatively about myself? How would you feel?

I’m not gonna disagree with you. You are correct. I guess internally, I feel like I’ve tried for a year and a half. I take steps forward, then take steps back. I take a leap forward, then I fall back. I’ve worn out my welcome so many places, probably even here. I’ve gone to church, I’m trying therapy. I just loathe being alone, and I’m not able to fix that. I’m not able to make myself into the person that attracts positive attention. It’s attitude, confidence, looks, all of it. Nobody is gonna give me a second look. I’m not even aiming for 10’s. I’ve talked to thicc girls with a kid, doesn’t bother me as long as we vibe well.
I just feel like I’m throwing up the white flag now.

This. Especially the bold part. I guarantee you have an anxious attachment style. So when you don't get responses immediately or in a timely manner, you start creating these imaginary situations in your head. They'll be silly and crazy, but to you in the moment, you have convinced yourself that your thoughts are reality.
This x1000. This is exactly how I am.

Just being honest, but this is the feedback I need. I want to get to the point where I’m content being alone, I’m just not sure how.
