I feel that Its better when you focus on things that you know that you have a close to 100% chance of achieving. Like doing a muscle up is a hard and fun skill to learn but obviously most people cant do it despite how fun it must be to do. But also it is definitely or close to 100% possible EVENTUALLY with years of consistent practice, right? Right.

Losing your v-card? Getting into a relationship? Pft. You can try to do both of these things for your entire life and still fail even if you do everything right and are a kind person. Some of the worst humans in history like mobutu, leopold III, karl malone , suharto, pol pot , and adolph shitler ALL had wives And this is despite their wives and most othe rpeople on the planet knowing how selfish and deranged they were soooo....

I feel thatbif a person feels like they should give up on dating cause theyve tried for the last 40 or so years and have failed through mostly no fault of their own? Its up to them.Its never a completely good idea or a bad idea to give up on something like dating cause it depends on cntext and who you are in life, where you are in life, what you want in life, and who else is in your life and wants to potentially see you as a partner . If you want to give ? You should give up cause YOU want to give up. You shouldnt continue to seek a partner cause of your parents' or your community expectatoons of you or cause some sort of peer pressure. Do it for you. But giving up on things that simply require consistent long term effort that you will probably be able to do with a long enough consistent effort is just a bad idea most of the times IMO.

This feels like a schizopost but it's pretty accurate

I was asked this once during a job interview. I said it was none of your business.

[-] UnequalExchange@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

Im not even joking why do most people not just say this when theyre asked?

You have every right to keeo your future anonymous to an employer who can fire you at a whim and will probably pay you a bullshit wage and will probably give you insanely long hours. Or theyll do all 3. All 3 happened to me many times before.

Bold of you to assume it stops at 40 💀

The 35 years old virgin is not that much better

I feel this. Getting there myself. Part of the problem is that I can't experience sexual pleasure and I have a hard time experiencing sexual attraction. But I really wish I could experience what those endorphins feel like even once! But even doing it myself, it doesn't work that way.

To my knowledge, I don't seem to have any physical abnormalities. I've been to the doc for a checkup before there. Nerves just must not be hooked up right or something.

maybe youre just asexual? If you are asexual, the best thing to do is just embrace it and maybe find someome else who is asexual. There is also the possibiluty you are aromantic as well and maybe yyou need someone else in your life who is asexual and aromantic? Im not diagnosing you cause obviously I dont know you lol just suggestions lol.

Or what youre suffering frorm hasnnt been studied in depth yet? Our understanding of the human body is hopelessly infantile even now still so....

Sorry that youre goingnthrough that though 🫂

That sucks. Good luck.

If someone is happily asexual, then I guess it's not a problem. Some people might feel no desire and carry on with life not feeling like they miss anything because "there's nothing to miss". But suffering with it or feeling deprived sucks.

Yeah it's mostly fine for the most part. Just occasionally it gets to me. People describe it as such an immense pleasure that I wish I could experience something like that at least once in my life. Oh well.

I thought that was acquired at 50.

[-] UnequalExchange@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

I was super afraid of that movie when it came out (I was an incel at the time).

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Hey virgies, talk to the person you're interested in and show them you're interested. Make sure you let them speak freely and until they finish their point, and show that you're interested in hearing what they have to say with your body language. Best of luck!

[-] daggermoon@piefed.world 5 points 1 day ago

Time for me to give up at that point.

[-] StillAlive@piefed.world 4 points 1 day ago

Already did, for the most part.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Hey, at least you're StillAlive.

[-] bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

While youre dying I'll be, still alive

[-] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 day ago

That picture is so disconcerting because that is simply not Carell's face. Maybe I just am face blind. Also that movie didn't stand up over time except I remember Catherine Keener
