Why would a girl put that she's clinically depressed as a selling point to guys?

These dating app profiles are wild

[Screenwriter]

Some guys want to rescue a partner. She's seeking someone who fits her illness, I'm guessing. Not healthy. But advantageous.

I had a guy contact me when in my profile I said I was looking for an active, outdoors type as that was what I was! Said I was looking for someone local. Well, the Mississippi Gulf Coast is near New Orleans. 90 minute drive... and I got contacted by a man who was in a wheelchair, indicated he had no interest in doing anything outdoors, and who had a laundry list of physical things wrong with him besides just being wheelchair bound.

I was baffled as to why this man sent me a missive. He didn't list anything we had in common. So, my guess was he wanted a very active NURSE!

My guess is this depressed woman is seeking a man who will cheer her up because he isn't depressed. Of course, this doesn't solve her clinical depression. She needs medication and therapy, not a boyfriend. But some people are lazy. Instead of looking inside to serve her needs, she thinks an outside source will cure her. With mental illness this is NEVER true.

Maybe it's not as a selling point, but more as information.
Like if someone has a kid, in an open relationship, that they're Trans or something else where they want the other person to know something up front.

[chris_987]

If your depressed why would you be dating, don't you have bigger issues

[Little_Bumblebee]

Trying to get some normalcy in your life.
Also, being depressed doesn't mean you cannot function somewhat normally.
Or maybe they're also lonely and see that dating could help.
Trying to get some dopamine perhaps.
Could be a lot of things.

[chris_987]

Dopamine is the last this depressed people need, serotonin will get them long. Lasting happiness.

[Little_Bumblebee]

Yeah, I wrote the wring thing. I'm at the gym so didn't really think thoroughly

[chris_987]

Lol dopamine would be like masturbating it would leave you empty afterwards, and serotonin in like being in a loving relationship it will leave you actually fulfilled.

[Little_Bumblebee]

Actually both are good for you and both have relevance to depression.

[chris_987]

Masturbation is good for you?

[Little_Bumblebee]

Yeah, it has a lot of benefits for you

[chris_987]

What are those benefits for women?

[Little_Bumblebee]

You know you can Google this, right?
And you don't think maturation is beneficial? For men og women?

[chris_987]

No having sex with yourself is proven to social stunt your social skills. Virginity in men is high than its ever been because of porn addiction. Women don't get addicted to vibrators because they can still get sex without much work, but they have higher depression rates because they end up with men that don't care about them.

But that's just my opinion.

[Little_Bumblebee]

I honestly do not resonate with anything you just wrote.

[chris_987]

Im not surprised lol

[Little_Bumblebee]

And why's that?

[chris_987]

Most girls are pro sex, they don't see the down side of it. Like if you go to Spencer's they'll openly sell sex toys to young girls. So it would be much harder to convince a girl that sex can have a dark side to it

[Little_Bumblebee]

I don't really get why you think masturbation equally being a virgin and sexless forever. That's an extremely black and white way to think.
You don't reminded a virgin and single just from grasping your penis when you need to.

As if women don't know sex can have a dark side? We're more likely to get sexually abused, you know that, right?
Women are very of that.

[chris_987]

Yeah tell humans to give into the perversion is only gonna cause more sexual abuse.

who do think is more likely to abuse women the man that has a healthy sexual relationship with his wife or the sexual frustrated men who is watching more and more darker porn and want's to act out his fantasy

[Little_Bumblebee]

So masturbation is just a guaranteed road to becoming a sexual deviant who's going to become this type of person who's gonna rape women or what?

You have a very dark mindset about this sorts of stuff dude

[chris_987]

You ask me why I'm not surprised and I explained it

[Screenwriter]

Thank you Christopher!!! Nail, head... But... see my answer... Not pretty, but pertinent.

[Anonymous]

It's certainly not something I would put on a dating app but maybe she just wants to be upfront and honest with the guys to weed out the ones who won't date a girl like that.

[chris_987]

I think girls have so much options they can put whatever they want on there and guys will still swipe right

[Opinion Owner]

Haha I definitely agree. Some guys will go for that and not care.

[chris_987]

And that's why a lot of girls are messed up because there's no standards anymore

[Opinion Owner]

There's definitely not.

[chris_987]

There's a standard for guys, but it's superficial and based on money and status

[Opinion Owner]

For many girls yes thats the case. But not all girls are like that.

[chris_987]

I know that I'm not dumb, but it's healthy to point out that girls have that standard, Just like it would be healthy to point out that there are people that don't like black people. You don't have to say not all people don't like black people. You kind of shift the subject like it's wrong to point out that girls go after Rich dudes.

I just find it weird when girls do that.

[Tessafowler03]

So they would feel sorry

[chris_987]

I think it's having the opposite effect, no guy wants to be with a crazy girl

[Screenwriter]

HA ha!!! You're wrong, sir! There are white kn ights. Looking to save. a woman! She's seeking one! But, it won't happen. No one can cure depression. Certainly not a lone boyfriend! Egads!
