      I’m sure vending machines in Japan will provide sex toys and there are life-sized realistic dolls on sale online.

    If you’re just after sex and can’t get any via casual hook ups from bars / dating apps / fetish groups then just pay a consenting adult for sex.

    If you’re after genuine human connection and a relationship then you should work on yourself to be someone you’d like to be in a relationship with.

      Am not sure I get the analogy. Most people don’t like politicians and I’m pretty sure politicians are only pretending to like their constituents.

    I blame romance movies and novels and such. It’s such utter bullshit, how the stereotypical storyline is that she rejects him at first and then he’s just really desperate persistent and then she eventually softens up and they’re married ever after.

    Some women like that little dance of rejecting and the guy not giving up, but even then only if they think you’re cute beforehand.
    But most women will just find that creepy and off-putting. They want to have a partner they actually find attractive themselves, not just any partner who finds them attractive enough to persist through humiliation.

      The guys in these romance movies also tend to be fairly handsome and charming. The rejections are more often because the woman has had bad experiences with men and is careful. Or something else like that. Or maybe she’s got an abusive boyfriend she hasn’t left yet. Whereas in real life it’s entirely possible to just not be that person’s type.

      I blame them too.

      The stereotype need to die.

      Some men take rejections seriously. If you blow them off then they move on. In some cases men find it really hurts because they know they’ll be good together.

      Can we go back to when no Tinder, no social media to carry out these “modern” romance practice please? No more stupid romance movies. And please every country pass a law to put a disclaimer on Jane Austen’s books, saying “This romance story never happened.”

    The truth is to be attractive and you can be an absolute fucking asshole or retard and she would do everything to suck up to you.

      The truth is multilayered and versatile. For example, and also to add variations: noticed some people just periodically fuck others and do as less as possible of any other activities, but in such cases sex is enough for the second to remain in state of constant addiction affection towards first ones. How and what both sides of relationships feel and think about the matter is an object of their individual perception.

      But if going in a fields beyond just sex (as one of primary primal definitions of love — because mating-mating, children-children, instincts-instincts), then you’ll find out that many human beings aren’t getting any love at all. Absence of care is also a significant reason of many people’s insecurities and hatred towards everything and everyone, usually including themselves.

      Now…
