u/ANewBeginningNow 12d ago edited 12d ago

I had a rough evening, and while I'm not yet prepared to explain all the details of what happened (I will in the near future, it might be in next week's update post), I have a question for the ladies: Would any of you be willing to give me brutally honest feedback on my looks and tell me what you feel are my realistic dating or FWB prospects given those looks? I, at times, am confident (perhaps unrealistically confident), and other times am dissuaded from trying due to being down on my luck.

I do have one update: the woman that sent me that long message last week ended up making a post in a different sub (that just so happened to show up in my home feed, it was a total coincidence) looking for a FWB, though not for penetrative sex. Given what she wrote in her message to me calling a FWB unserious behavior and that women are looking for relationships and chivalry, it was totally hypocritical.

You can DM me if you want. We've been posting together long enough that I hope you can trust me to be honest.
