I frequent this board almost every day.
I have helped others, and been helped myself, many times over.
But I've noticed a pattern.
I don't think I'm smart, or special for noticing this particular pattern, but it has made me question it.
A large portion of threads on this board revolve around 2 things:
>Women (Or relationships)
>Emotional Pain
I originally came to this thread today to ask for some relationship advice myself. But after scrolling through the catalogue and reading every thread that involves those two things, I realised there is no point. I know what my issue is now and how to sort it. One is the cause of the other, and the only way you ever rectify an issue is by erasing it entirely. So that's what I am doing.
I am done with relationships, and more specifically... Women.
I hope these words provide an insight to someone else out there.

>swearing off women
>i hope this provides insight
im sorry but if you think avoiding your natural instincts to be with women are going to erase emotional pain, you are wrong, you will just have a different kind.
dont get me wrong i am a big believer that were too co dependent and need to take a step back and enjoy time by yourselves. im single for 4 years and dont see it changing.
but to swear off women in an attempt to stop your emotional pain is just gonna make you lonely horny and jaded.
at best the important thing isnt to swear off women so much as to rise above relationship drama.

This is a pretty good post.
"Taking your ball and going home" isn't really the answer to wanting to win the game. Saying you're done with women pretty much means that deep down you're still going to be bitter about it.
Like the last poster said, people here are too co-dependent. Take the time you have single to enjoy your freedom, knowing that you don't have to pass your plans by someone else, or get shit tested, or plan out meals together, or anything like that.
Just go do you and be happy about it.

yup. its okay to stop pursuing women, but to swear off anything (save for meth and the like) is rather silly.
be yourself by yourself and just pursue a woman if she actually stands out and interests you. thats all life should be.

100% agree with this.
All I hear is you take things way too personally to be allowed on the internet. You're probably not even in a the best mindset for dating atm and that's okay. You don't need to make a thread about it.

Do you browse it with your fucking eyes closed?
