    This is why you date, wheat from chaff and all that. The day you find someone perfect is the day you can stop looking

      Or if you’re poly you can never stop looking a just enjoy dating and having fun.

      I do not recommend poly for most people. It’s a lot of work, and it’s not for everyone.

      or you just stop looking because you are sick of all the miserable bullshit and you just want to enjoy your life without other people’s miserable bullshit weirdo nonsense in it.

      and you’re shocked that… you feel really good most days instead of feeling like shit most days… almost as of how other people treat you has a huge impact on your mental health and cutting out people who treat you poorly makes you feel a lot better about life.

        I mean yea that’s also an option. Being happy alone should always come before being happy with someone else, if at all.

          This could be a good strategy to find someone too. People are more attractive when they feel good about themselves.

            Typically for a man at least, if you aren’t active looking, you’re never going to find anyone. Feeling good about yourself isn’t going to attract people… being attractive and approaching them is really what you have to do.

              Typically yea but sometimes you get lucky and can have a woman ask you out. Usually only happens when they notice other women are interested in you and really don’t wanna miss their shot. In my experience, when you’re happy, kind and not looking, they’ll find you, and fast

              Somewhat true but if you’re on the bigger side you can get away without being toned. Surprisingly its usually the small skinny guys that struggle even if they have a 6 pack. Big flabby arms are still more attractive that 5% body fat twig arms. The biggest thing getting fit does it make regular clothing look better. Being fit can significantly elevate something as simple as a t-shirt if it fits nicely.

              I was by far the most fit guy at the bbq i went to last weekend and i was also one of the only single ones and tend to be single more than the others. The host a good friend of mine actually looked great in just a button up and his cowboy boots cause he actually put some thought into his outfit.
