I realize that, for a more extreme example, a girl under similar circumstances to a Western male incel, could actually still land a boyfriend with some ease. What I mean is if she is in a cycle of depression, lack of motivation, lack of self esteem, and loneliness with very few irl friends, this doesn't seem to dramatically deter attraction from men as far as I know. I. e. men still tend to accept this potential side of female humanity should they encounter such. It may rather make a man feel good that he can help heal a woman from such a rut.

Prettiness is a huge factor though, but the vast, vast majority of women are not considered visually unattractive by men, unlike the other way around. Unfortunately, modern men and women don't prioritize virtue though, if we even care much for that at all outside the idea of, "committing to your goals", which doesn't even mean you're a good or ethical person. So despite the fact that most, most women can find a sexual partner almost instantly, they don't have faith that they can have a committed and substantive relationship that will go somewhere.

Yet with all that said, underneath all of our societal lack of virtue at least in the West, men are still both culturally and biologically driven to serve, help, and forge their lives with women.

But could women be leaving men hanging here, despite all the progress? Do women really care about their sexual partners/spouses/S. O.'s/and potential partners? Or is it almost exclusively about self interest, judging how "hot" his "masculine and/or fun personality" is, and of course how hot he looks?

Is a gentle, kind heart enough for a woman in the way that it is enough for a man? Please vote and explain your thoughts in the comments.

Loneliness is the unwelcome feeling that we lack companions; the feeling that we have fewer or poorer relationships than we want.

In small doses loneliness can help us; it can push us to reach out to other people. But when loneliness becomes chronic and acute, it’s corrosive.

Loneliness is something I hear about a lot on the internet. Some of you who are active on here probably feel lonely aswell. It's such a large issue, yet no one seems to talk about it.

In the Netherlands a couple twitter hashtags went viral related to loneliness. Large quantities of youth tweeted out the same hashtag, with a message explaining their situation and that they needed friends. These tweets got tons of replies, which is surprising seeing that Twitter's popularity in the Netherlands isn't all that big. So even with this limited audience, lonely people were everywhere.

Ofcourse that is in my own -small- country, with a youth of two million people. Of which most do not use twitter or know about the hashtags.

Loneliness is so incredibly common, yet nothing gets done about it. There is a huge stigma around saying that you're lonely. There are probably several reasons for this; it shows you're vulnerable, that you can't make friends, that your ability to get a partner is less, etc (even though none of those are true.) The rejection of loneliness most likely only makes matters worse.

I can't help but wonder, why do people feel so lonely here? Is this just an issue in the Netherlands or is it as wide spread as the internet makes it seem? Why are so little people speaking up? Are we able to taste our own tounge?

Sidenote: There is no solid pattern in internet usage, race, sexuality, gender, political background or any of that involved. So please, do not point fingers at other groups, unless your idea is well thought through.
