try visiting the Bronx Zoo

Isn't that just the Bronx?

used to live there

can confirm it is a zoo in it's entirety

specifically the hall of primates

It's surprisingly easy to not care about girls or relationships right now.
For me anyways.

Ive pretty much just solely been playing Smash to try and escape these thoughts. I only start to care once I stop playing.

ever been in a relationship before OP?

Several times. Why?

Love will come OP. Do you think you're ready for it though? It's not as simple as you think. You really need to love yourself so you can give someone else your all, not just use them as a crutch. Both of you should fulfill and uplift each other

If I could find someone I love who loves me back I have no reservations that I could and would devote my every fiber of being to them.

That's my problem right now. I'm so fundamentally lost and without purpose that I'm suicidally depressed and socially irritable. But were I committed to someone else, that would solve the base problem of not having a purpose. She would be my purpose.

Can't make a woman your purpose. It's very appealing but I've learned the hard way. Also brah when you rely on a woman like this the relationships suffers. Your primary focus should be to find your purpose. Your mission. It's not a woman. A loving woman will help supplement your purpose and you guys will raise each other to new heights but she cannot be your purpose.

The way you feel is almost identical to Roman. You guys just come across in slightly different ways, but To me I see how similar your guy's posts are

Why not? I see no problems with one's life goal being to provide for their wife and family.

Life is meaningless.

Ugh not cool bro

There's nothing wrong with being a romantic

I've got plenty of things to keep me busy which is nice. Trying to get better at smash, got another tournament in March, got college. Also playing music weekly, just going here and there.

I actually feel too busy to want a relationship. I mean yeah I COULD make it work, but eh.

OH MY GOD

A lot of people have the romanticized view of love. Not everyone can just love someone every couple weeks.

Preach it hommie

Never forget the Australian girl who bats for her own team. Never ever.

Speaking of the aussie

I saw her today

She's put on a few pounds

I don't think we can expect much else from people who eat Kangaroos.

You're better off without it man. Learn to love yourself first, and love with another will be more fulfilling.

Its impossible to love myself. I hate myself. And so do most people.

Which is kinda the problem. Maybe if someone ever does love me again they can tell me how.

Eh, I've never felt the feeling. I'm pretty much at that point where I really don't even know what to do. Here I am 24 and never been with anyone, so I'm without experience. I have thought about apps like tinder, but the fact that you need a facebook is a no no for me. In teaching, you have to have that whole professional looking thing going on and using it seems like a liability. Would also consider using grindr, but I live in a small enough city the everyone knows each other and I don't want to come out as bi.

That sucks dude. As a guy at 17 whos had really bad luck in that department, i really dread that happening to me. (No offense)

I dont want to get to the point where im just at home, 24/7 with no social prospects and no experience
