Wow same here. In my case I know them from h.s. and they live within a mile from me. That is so shitty of your "friend" to preemptively reject you like that. I also hate the idea that people who actually have active social lives might consider me a pathetic, needy loser so I'm like hyper aware of how I come off. I…

Haha, no worries; I am very open to being friends with randos from Jezebel! ;) There was a Jezzie meetup here last week (which I could not attend) so there are definitely opportunities. I don't think most people regret moving to a new city so come onnnnnnn to Philly (I do enjoy it here despite my struggles).

I'm sorry and I feel you. My social life has never recovered since my LTR-breakup which happened nearly 2 years ago. 9 mos. ago I decided to start fresh in a new city, which I chose partially because I do know a few people who live here, and socially it's been a huge disappointment. Despite all the pre-move advice and…

Do you think some men lash out at the women they fall for despite "not wanting a relationship?" Like they get mad at YOU because they TOLD you they only wanted X but ended up in a Y situation, realize they are in over their heads and have to blame someone (not themselves)?

You just mansplained something to her that she clearly already knows.

He's 33 so women like you and me are not even on his radar. But yeah, spot on description of trying to find a boyfriend after 30. For women, if you don't meet your life partner in your 20s the ship has basically sailed.

All the guys my age are dating women your age.

As someone who will never be The Prettiest Girl in the Bar, this is why I don't even bother. :(

The ANOREXIC woman featured in this story is indeed sick and skeletal you freak. Fapping all day to thigh gap and holding girls and women to the "thigh gap" standard is also sick.

So you admit, men prefer to fuck and ogle sick, skeletal girls with big tits? And they say it's feminists who hate men.

Any time someone claims the "thigh gap" obsession is self-imposed by women, men give no fucks about thigh gap, they have never given it any consideration, etc., etc., a link to The Chive should automatically appear. Straight men's sexuality is toxic.

Literally the exact same thing happened to me and my ex about three years ago! It was late at night, he didn't want to cause a scene, but I insisted on calling the fire department and sure enough: lethal levels of carbon monoxide. It was like seeing my life flash before my eyes.

This illustration of Republicans' treatment of hypothetical children vs. actual children could not be more perfect.

Oh that's interesting. You don't like when strange women say certain things to you. Hmph. It seems familiar but I can't put my finger on it.

Nothing "cheers me up" like having some stranger preemptively dismiss my feelings or assume I must be troubled if I'm not grinning!

Oh but they will! They will no longer be the center of wifey's world and he may not get to stick his penis in her vagina as soon or often as he'd like!

When I would get a match with a guy who never reached out to me it made me feel disappointed, not wanted. But OK.

How is your lifestyle (multiple FWBs) any different from being poly? Is the moral of the story that you have so much baggage you need multiple women to dump it on?

If you give poly people enough rope they will hang themselves metaphorically (or in the bedroom as they will eagerly describe to you in grotesque detail). They are a stew of serious issues and/or are overcompensating for some shortcoming they haven't processed. It seems like there are so few people out there who…

So jelly to not be a cult member who's preoccupied with fucking.
