Also another thing i'd like to add is after a certain age (mid 20's), if a girl is single she likely has kids or is broken. The good ones get snatched up early. Girls in their mid-late 20's are the ones you will want though since they are likely out of the sloot phase.
What do you mean when you say a girl is broken?

TBH Though


Does dating make anyone else a bit depressed? I do okay at attracting women but the thing is i know their nature and after my last experience can't take women seriously anymore.
The funny part is i have a girl on my snapchat who constantly posts stories of her beta boyfriend taking her out to dinner. This girl is a legit 5/10. I would send her shirtless selfie of me and flirt with her and she will respond straihgt away lmao. Hypergammy of peace. The funny part is - if i was to get with this girl and even date her, guess what some dude better looking taller and better body will probabyl message her and the entire process starts again

What actually happens to these women ? eventually they settle down for a beta provider? **** that man. No thanks jeff.
Are there actually quality women left in the world? No joke. I'm not a great guy and don't want to sound condescending but it's a serious question. I don't want to get my hopes up and i'm just not sure if i should accept the fact that that's what life is and that's how women are . I can only have a laugh focus on myself.

Well you aren't going to change the nature of human beans, so make a decision and live with it. No sense in living a life of self torture because sloots gonna sloot.

I think what the arguments between both side in this thread essentially come down to is -

One side believes a person has absolute free will
and
The other side believes a person doesn't have free will

Ultimately, if you believe in cause and effect, then everyone is exactly where they were always meant to be. Things could not have been different. The fact OP made this thread, the fact you're reading this post, the fact I wrote it. Nothing could have been different. I'll restate that, not a single thing could have been different. Nothing.

That said. That's no way to live life, you've gotta live as though you do have free will and that the future is not pre-determined. Because, maybe it's not, maybe you've overlooked some variable. You're only human and you don't know the wisdom of god.

Whichever way you look at it, you can come to a conclusion based on better and worse, and here it is -

#1. "I'm not in control, therefore gonna let life pass me by."
#2. "I am in control of my life, I will not let life pass me by, I will do all the things I need to attain the life I want for myself. Even if I fail, or I am wrong, acting in this manner was my best choice."

Of course if you do view life as though you don't have free will, you'll come up with rebuttals and say something which is along the lines of "But I don't have free will, the universe is exactly how it was always going to be, including myself, including all my thoughts, and your thoughts too, and... everything... therefore lay down at rot".

What I'm saying is, having that attitude will not serve you, it will not lead you to where you want to be. That attitude itself is the thing stopping you.

Simply put, start believing you do have free will, and if you can't make yourself believe that you do, at least start acting as if you do. Then make a smart plan to improve your situation. You know which path will serve you, and which will doom you.

You're out of your mind. For pure hook-up sex it's physical attraction (though game can still make a difference here); for actual dating it's passing a looks threshold and PERSONALITY. The fact that you put money before personality actually just confirms that you don't have any of the latter which is partially your problem. I've dated when I was a broke student. I'm sorry you're the absolute bottom tier when it comes to looks (if you are 5'3 and as unattractive in the face as you claim), but stop generalizing based on your experiences.

Edit: Also, "Chad" doesn't actually exist you fukwit. He's an internet meme which you've taken seriously because in your mind anyone with semi-decent social skills who can interact with women and achieve a desired sexual outcome becomes some mythical creature, which then excuses your own self-inflicted social stagnation.

2 Timothy 2:22
So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.

1 Thessalonians 4:3-5
For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality; that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God

Jude 1:7
Just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural desire, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.

Your last sentence is a big part of the problem. Even with depression, you have to get your self treated. Also people are being fed this bull**** that you have no chance in making it if you are a certain race, live in a certain area, etc. People need to step to the plate

EXACTLY but that is the message that the liberals, their schools, and their media keep cramming into everybody's head.

You are truly alone. You do not even know your mother truly exists. The only thing you can be utterly certain of is your own existence. Sure, you rely on nourishment, etc. But you are isolated. You can pretend that existential veil doesn't exist, but it does. Your journey through life is yours alone. Mom will die. Dad will die. Friends will come and go. People around you will leave. The only constant in all of it is your existence. It's true that babies are somewhat reliant on mothers. Doesn't mean you are any less alone in the end. Besides, I was fed on formula and could have been raised by anyone. Truth is, it's all about survival and reproduction. Your survival may require other people as a baby, but you don't control that. You are alone in your struggles. Even as a child, nobody can understand you.

That makes sense but we are social creatures. Even in relationships you are still alone though in a sense and I get what you say. Even if you are isolated you should still strive to form relationships with people if you can.

It's hard for females to find love too. Most females know most guys just want that hole.

The reason I didn't say personality is because personality only matters AFTER you meet a girls looks and money standards.


Be broke and see how many chicks are down with paying for your butt on a date. Not many boyo

Being totally broke says something about your personality (not ambitious, likely impulsive, lazy, and not too bright). The fact that women don't want to pay for a date with some hobo isn't inconsistent with personality being important.

Yea being poor is a personality flaw......lmao wut dude. A lot of times it's just circumstance rs pok especially nowadays. Theres a reason so many people live at home until later.

College too expensive, hard to find a decent job, rent is high etc etc.

Fuk you if you assume anyone struggling financially is lazy or whatever
