I found one lady who talks about reading critical theory (or playing the same video game over and over again while listening to history podcasts really) and dystopian futures and being a maladjusted and empathetic person that likes jokes and is all "hmu if u also sad and disheveled" on her profile, and I'm all "I was born for this social connection :large-adult-son: "

Try putting yourself out there, Hexbears, even if you get ghosted or passed on or it ends in disappointment, you believed in yourself enough to try and that can do something for your self-esteem in and of itself

Even if this ends in disaster and the concentrated social scorn of all women on earth converges on me to make me spontaneously combust I was all "I like myself enough to believe I can connect with people again" :joker-gaming: :joker-dancing:

EDIT: To be clear the advice is not "append your self-worth to a dating profile" it's "believe in yourself enough to try dating in whatever form that takes, you'll feel better about yourself for entertaining the possibility"

Also I sent a message to that possible commie/anarchist girl saying she seems cool and i like her sense of humor and her pics are cute, I expect the FBI to kick down my door for being a creep and taze me until I explode like an enemy in Syphon Filter within the hour

    I'm glad it made you feel better. It's easy to get discouraged with dating apps try so bear in mind the women you message are probably being flooded with weird creepy messages so don't take it personal if they don't get back to you it's not necessarily something you did
