If it was meant to be she would fall through my ceiling

[–] [email protected] 32 points 5 days ago

The right person for me deserves better.

I’m sure you’re joking, at least at some level. But if you’re like me, you probably also believe it at some level.

It turns out this is, in some ways, a good mindset. Always keep in mind that your partner deserves better, and you’re driven to be better for them. Not because you aren’t enough, but because you can be your best when you learn to navigate the give-and-take that long-term relationships require. You’ll fuck up, but if you’re willing to be kind, empathetic, and most importantly apologetic, and willing to get up and try again when you fall, you’re already far ahead of plenty of people.

But if you start thinking you deserve better than your partner, you’re gonna have a bad time.

We’re all insecure at our core, but that means so is everyone else. The right person for you also thinks you deserve better. Build them up, and they’ll build you up in return.

(Sorry, I know it’s a shitpost.)

Imma be real guys, it can happen. My girlfriend, whos currently sleeping next to me, finally got frustrated enough with me not making a move to knock on my door one night and tell me her feelings. Been almost a year now. So like, it's not impossible.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yes but you've missed out the important part where you explain how you met her in the first place.

I really don't want to start going back into the office but this working from home thing really does isolate you and even if I did go back into the office if they're working from home it doesn't help anyway.

She was one of my neighbors I met while walking my dogs in my apartment complex

[–] [email protected] 25 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I occasionally do all of those things and have achieved nothing, so you're not missing out if that helps

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

I had zero luck all the way up to when good things happened so just stick with it and try to stay moralized 👍

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 days ago (1 children)

If only there was a way to make connections on some type of forum... Too bad that's never gonna happen!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 days ago

I mean yeah, that's the problem. It's a beautiful world... FOR YOU. Just like how dating sites exist, but that doesn't mean they work for everybody.

This one hit my kokoro

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

It's a dark forest out there

I've been recently suddenly smitten. Been awhiiiile. And of course she's my coworker. On a team of three. At my new job of only three months. So yay person of interest, I guess, but of course there are now 3,000 potential new issues/stressors.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

You're worth it though, right? Not being sarcastic....

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

Same, wanting someone to hangout but getting very anxious about just going outside.

Meeting humans is intolerable, but my hope is that with AI technology advancing as rapidly as it is, soon I will be able to assemble the right robot for me...

Legalize robosexual marriage!!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I was thinking of "Ex Machina."

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Yes, but even Skynet would probably like me better than the average woman does. Skynet > human woman > AM.

(I never know if explicitly saying that I'm not being serious is necessary on the internet or just ruins the joke, but here I'm going to ruin the joke.)

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You had me with Meeting humans is intolerable, but lost me with the rest.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago

I've lost you? But we were meant to be together!
