Executive dysfunction, and bone crushing social anxiety? Not over dating, but people in general.

I would love an SO for the emotional comfort, and as someone to beat me in the head when needed. Caring for someone else feels good!

...But I'm many steps away :(

Don't like to think of myself as single... I'm just between wives atm lol

Because I do not date, try to date, think about dating, or do anything to attempt to be in a relationship in any way whatsoever. Not aromantic. I just had to switch it off because I've got too much baggage to not be a catastrophic disaster and I'm not willing to go through all of that.

Or as the dismissive and arrogant, pretentious, self righteous fucksticks like to say "I'm afaid of getting hurt." Fuck those people, for real.

I don't put myself out there

I'm a pile of human wreckage

Because I don't identify with "they/them" pronouns, 🤪

I had staff room biscuits and a spoon of peanut butter for lunch today.

I'm struggling with one body and their feelings. How can I help another?

Many many reasons...

I've gotten to the age where people are professionals and advanced in their careers, they seek similarly advanced people, I'm a loser working in a factory... I'm pretty worthless in just about every way you could measure anyway, but even still, I live too far from people my age. It got so insanely overpriced in the last 5+ years that most people leave that don't already own a home or are rich.

No one in their right mind is going to travel, or bother with me traveling to them, when they have so many better options closer to them especially since dating apps exist and they can see who's near to them. It's a giant buffet table on those sites and I'm that weird cold pizza that's for some reason always out there at Chinese buffet.

Time, social media consumption, work working from home, don't make moves. Have a second date on Sunday, but how to move forward and show that I want more then friendship?

I've been separated for about a year, and I haven't really started to look yet. But if you do the napkin math, it takes a population of a population of about 20,000 people to find a partner as a gay man. My city has less than 20,000 people, so it doesn't look like it's going to go great when I do start looking.

Because dating women is pure garbage.
