MODERATORS
A large part of the "magic" with human relationships is that out of all of the 8 billion some people in the world, those who are close to you have chosen to spend time with you. For all of our flaws, they see your true nature and value you for it, and choose to have you as part of their lives.
With an AI, that may not be a thing.
If they're programmed to like you, they're at best a toy and at worst a slave. There's no freedom for them to choose or not to choose to be with you. You're getting an imitation of a relationship. It could be a convincing imitation, with built-in arguments and other idiosyncrasies, but to me every time I hit one of those, it would just be a stark reminder that it's not the real thing and it's just programmed to behave that way.
If they're not programmed to like you and are free to form or not form connections with humans, there's no guarantee you'd have any more luck wooing an AI than you would a human.
Nobody wants me.
Not with that attitude
I don't have another one, this is me.
Everyone is capable of change. And I mean this as gently as possible, but it looks from your post history that you might benefit from talking to a therapist. It seems like you’re in a deep depression hole, and I know it can be hard to see it in the moment, but therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes can really do wonders for improving your mood and outlook on life.
False
It’s not. Those things have worked for me and many others. You’re not that special. If you want to keep wallowing in hating and pitying yourself, that’s your choice. But remember that it’s not life and the world conspiring against you, it’s your own shitty behavior that drives people away.
