My fellow Secret Admirers, we come in all types. Some of you are happily involved in a relationship with someone you treasure. This thread is not for you.
Some of you bounce from relationship to relationship, continually experiencing the pain of separation, but always finding someone to whom you can turn. This thread is not for you.
Some of you may never have been in a relationship, but remain confident that if you keep your chin up, good things will come your way. This thread is not for you.
And some of you like to console people like me. This thread is definately not for you. Please move along. We'll both be happier that way.
No, this thread is for people who have never been in relationships and realize that things are extremely unlikely to change. People who are sick of false words of encouragement and trite phrases like "everyone has a special someone, somewhere." We know that's not true; hell, we're living proof to the contrary.
And no, we aren't going to chin up and put a positive spin on things and try again because, hell, we barely even tried in the first place. We know what the outcome would have been, and in the event that we did try, our low expectations were fulfilled to the letter.
We see no logical reason to assume that this will ever change.
So, my fellow jaded Secret Admirers, this thread is our space. A place where we can commisserate as people who still care about love but can no longer be bothered to do anything about it. As people who have reconciled themselves to their fate but still reserve the right to be bitter about it.
This little corner of /love/ shall henceforth be our own.
>People who are sick of false words of encouragement and trite phrases like "everyone has a special someone, somewhere." We know that's not true
If people say that to you, its because you act like such a pathetic individual that they feel they need to offer you consolation to make you feel better about yourself. If you are actually happy with yourself, it will be observable to others that you are happy with life and don't need their words of encouragement or a relationship.
Stop wallowing in your own self pity and people will stop pitying you and start treating you like a human being.
>>If people say that to you, its because you act like such a pathetic individual that they feel they need to offer you consolation to make you feel better about yourself.
Or they could just, you know, keep it to themselves.
>>This little corner of /love/ shall henceforth be our own.
To what fucking avail, brother?

cheer up man, i'm sure there's someone special for you out there.

Trolling?
>Or they could just, you know, keep it to themselves.
They'll keep it to themselves if they see you as not needing their pity.
I feel like laughing...
How old are you nerdlings?
Damn, Ive been chillin with bitches.
Only 2 things you need:
All you need. Other than that, have your own personality.
Shiiiiitttt...
>How old are you nerdlings?
>have your own personality
Says the 15 years old street 'thug' asking for advice from said nerdlings.
>bitches
>Treat her with (some) respect
Since when is calling girls "bitches" a sign of respect? Learn what respect means before trying to act all tough and all-knowing.
If you look at life like that, you'll never, ever get anywhere. It's not a matter of finding "the one." I've fallen in love before, and for one reason or another, it's never worked out. I fall in love with unavailable girls, gay girls, girls who live far away from me, girls with boyfriends; I've had one real relationship, which was lovely until we grew apart. All this has given me one tip: take things lightly. Have fun. So what if she's a raging lesbian? So what if she lives halfway across the country? So what if there isn't anyone at all? Laugh at yourself, make fun of yourself for your constant singleness. Laugh at yourself for being so fucked up that you can never fall for anyone you can have. Have fun with life, and stop taking things so seriously. Because that's a fuck of a lot better than wallowing in self-pity.
And then, maybe, just maybe, if you treat the world like a brighter place, relax, and stop expecting every girl to be the one... Maybe, she'll walk into your life one day, and you'll be happy. I still hope for that.

And even if not, you still had a little fun while you were here.
this is stupid, you are basically pissed about not being in love yet you do nothing to change yourself from that situation. yes it sucks being alone. i know it far too well. im 23, always have been single ive never made out and i am still a virgin, but shit, even i aint as pessimistic. yeah im single, yeah things probably will stay that way for a long while. but being emo or pissed about it aint gonna do a damn thing either. learn to let it not bother you and u will at least be happier. shit, i have anime and games and sports to keep me busy. it will suffice until i find love.
>>you are basically pissed about not being in love yet you do nothing to change yourself from that situation
That's exactly the point, but re-read my first post, please. I didn't start this thread for feedback on my issues, I started it so that fellow Anomymi with the same issue could gather and share in our pessimism.
This board is filled with too much encouragement. There have to be some out there who agree with me that no, not everyone can experience love, or will ever be able to.
As I said in my first post, this thread is not for the perpetual optimists. You folk already have plenty threads of your own.
If you think its disrespectful, then think again. True, randomly callin a girl a bitch is likely to go nowhere but down, but it can also be a playful term.
Also, Just cause I asked for how to deal with a certain girl doesnt mean I cant hold my own. Dummy Ive been fucking.
disregard that I suck cocks

I'm friends with a guy who considers himself a 'street thug.' Whenever he calls me his bitch/a bitch/refers to girls as bitches, I want to punch him in the face.
