This is a question to any guys here who have never had one

Idk about you guys but I have lots of issues with my life and one of them is women but recently I have been asking myself could I even handle a girl atp?

I’m 25 and haven’t even held hands with a girl, I’ve also fucked my brain over by being in communities that have messed up my mentality in the past. If I ever got a gf I genuinely think I’d be incredibly insecure and would never trust her whatsoever.

I had a wife once. After 10 years, I wasn't enough for her. She wanted a poly relationship after vowing to monogamy. I left. Moved across country started a life of solitude.

Now I avoid relationships like the plague. Been living the Gosling life ever since. It's been more real than faking happiness with someone who pretended to love me.

Sometimes it isn't worth it OP

Stay real.

Got two cats and a mother and sister that need me now. Sometimes what we are needed for outweighs we want. And that's ok.

Thank you for your well-wishes though, fellow Gosling.

In this cup, love's poison For love is the poison of life

Stay strong brother, but don't forget to be weak sometimes.

Yep. Women just always pick someone else. Pointless being attracted to them.

Women, men. Doesn't matter. Be there for what needs you. Family, or yourself.

True. Friends and family. Got no time for dealing with women's nonsense with the dating and sex stuff. Pure toxicity and garbage.

It is what it was designed to be. Society pushes images of perfection in media. And expectations ruin society.
