Lol I thought this was a Skyline Chili joke at first

Well damn.... If I wasn't 3000 miles away, I'd say I want it! Lol. Thing's a beaut!

Not just one of the troops, he was the one laughing his ass off lol

If OP isn't American, school shootings probably aren't something to even consider... My thoughts go towards being treated poorly by educators more than anything. Bullying from other kids can suck, but in my anecdotal experience (outside the US) the lasting and impactful traumas stem from how teachers and staff deal with the kids.

As I said, it's also good life advice, they're not mutually exclusive. For most people, those things are going to improve relationship and the likelihood of being in a romantic one. If you are in fact too ugly for someone to be physically attracted to you, you need to make yourself more emotionally and personably attractive. So far, the ugliest part I've seen about you is your attitude, and that's going to have a waaay bigger effect on what people think of you. I'm a straight dude, and judging from this post I wouldn't want to spend time with you in a platonic manner, let alone an intimate one simply because you're coming across like a dick head. It sounds like you're entirely focused on what you can't do, while rejecting any notion that you can improve yourself and your chances. I don't blame women for not wanting any part of that.

Why is that? You obviously have already made up your mind on the subject, seeing other answers. Were you simply seeking validation? I don't take problem with that, but don't outright reject the people who are providing genuine responses to your query. Given this is a largely anonymous platform, we have no context on what you actually look like, and you may very well be ugly enough that it has as big of an impact as you indicate it does. The advice being posted is valid for 99.9% of people, but you have to understand that we don't know what you're working with. On top of that, most of what is being said is also just good life advice to follow in general, even if it doesn't get you a partner.

Why would you ask a question if you already know the "correct answer"?

I miss my '87 yota... 2WD long box, 5 speed hooked up to a 22r. Hands down the best $400 I ever spent honestly. It was fully painted in bed liner and had two different side mirrors, one of which disappeared while parked at a friend's house over night, and a rusting box patched with spray foam (which always had moss growing out of it, no matter how much I cleaned or cut away). Sad times:

Yeah, my GF and I were born in 96 but both in fairly rural areas so our experience aligns more with being millennial. I think it depends a lot on the context of your personal upbringing, but I definitely agree with your sentiment.
