Search Results: i feel depressed

With social media like instagram. You’re never going to feel rich, pretty, handsome, tall enough. There’s always just too many people with more. It’s quite overwhelming how our society has become so depressing.

People are conscious to it but subconsciously they believe it all, like women expect all these unrealistic things. You see from what they like. I think it also makes a lot of men out there want to give up on playing a game you can’t win.

People want the rare thing, rare for a woman used to be like 1in20 guys, now it’s like 1in2000 guys because of all this abundance of people. 2/3 men are single 18-30.

On one hand it has helped motivate me a lot to keep moving forward.

I am 5’8, slim. 25. I try to put on muscle but never can’t seem to. I work really hard and only pull in $50k. Face is fine.
I have been getting depressed and self pitiful because I don’t know how I’m ever going to find a girlfriend and get married. I think I’m not good enough.

Should I bother anymore speaking to women? I’ve never had a girlfriend or interest. I’m starting to believe there’s some things wrong with me.

I feel that my best self, no matter what I do won’t cut it

I didn't get my first serious girlfriend until I was 29, almost 30. In fact, other than online attempts with girls where they rejected me upon meeting in person or short term dating where nothing transpired from it, I never had an actual girlfriend before that. Luckily and with the grace of God, I am now engaged. It is a huge relief.

This had caused so much grief, stress, and anguish over the years being single with no chance in sight of finding love. Shockingly, I was being looked at as the problem for being so depressed about it. I feel 100% that I was justified to feel this way, considering most humans start exploring romance and sex starting in middle or high school.

I wouldn't advocate for this to be the norm, especially for those who truly desire to have a significant other and a family in their lifetime. I know by the time I turned 29, I was already experiencing erectile dysfunction, libido issues, and low testosterone. Shit, for all I know, I can be infertile at this point. I didn't experience these issues up until recently.
