Current Events > Statistically, Are Men More Likely To Be LONELY Compared To Women?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Of course they are. Hence why you have so many virgins and men on reddit, or message boards talking about how hard the dating market, or having a social life is

Because as you get older, you realize most people don't "care" about you other than your close ones. P

Making friends is easy. You just have to do things other than sit at home.

statistics can be anything you want them to be

Making friends isn't easy at all for most men. For one, as you get older as an adult, you tend to have other priorities. Then, it also comes down to people prioritizing certain people over you. In friendships, there are tiers. Meaning, very rarely are people going to go out of their way to help you if shit hits the fan. And often times, you can be betrayed.

Difference between an acquaintance and a friend. People often think that they have "tons of friends", but it's more of the quality of said person. Which is rare. And it's also under the assumption that you think everyone is a good person

Making friends is easy. You just have to do things other than sit at home.

I thought you said it was easy. Sitting at home is easy.

Nah, youre just a pessimistic person.

Yes, I have acquaintances and friends. Your talk of betrayal and tiers probably stems from you thinking of somebody as a very close friend and them not feeling the same way. Unless theyve deliberately misled you, thats on them.

No, not everybody is a good person, but you get to choose who you want to be friends with.

No, realistic and red pilled. As a guy, I'm aware that lots of people will try to use me for their own gain or do things that benefit them. Instead of being in denial, I accept it and realize a lot of people aren't good.

Reliability. Honor. Integrity. These traits are rare for people to have. People prioritisize their own lives over other peoples. Aside from close friends/family. And you can choose who you want to be friends with, but it's about choosing someone who is actually good. Which isn't easy

People are good at holding their emotions or putting up a front. You won't even know if you picked a "quality" friend until it's too late. It's when you're in the dumps or shit hits the fan, that you truly know whose there for you. And thats not an overly common thing

Pick one. You cant be both.

Youve made it abundantly clear why you struggle to make friends with good people. Most good people dont want to spend their time with people spouting red pill rhetoric.

Hence why you have so many virgins and men on reddit, or message boards talking about how hard the dating market, or having a social life is

Sure it is. Everybody goes through shit.

Your attitude is a barrier to happiness and is the reason you struggle to make friends. If you behave like a dick, people will treat you like one.

While I sincerely hope that you realise how harmful your outlook is one day, Im not going to spend my day trying to convert you.

source: your anecdote lol

Men don't have the luxury of good support systems. Men who talk about their problems get insulted, criticized, or meant to feel like they aren't manly.

Even crying as a guy is looked down upon. Some of the biggest reasons why Men struggle is because they have no one to vent their problems to or talk to, without paying them(therapist) or going on a forum

You dont have anybody to talk to because you dont have any friends.

For most people, thats the step before paying a therapist.

Most people don't care about men's problems, which is why a lot of men keep to them selves/don't express themselves.

As far as friends, it'd depend on the right and quality friend. The assumption that people should instantly put their trust in someone else who they have a limited experience with is a very dangerous one. Like how going to some sort of club or event means that you're going to have deep connections in 30 days. Doesn't happen like that

Youve already admitted that you dont have any friends and dont think youll ever be able to make any. Youre not qualified to tell me or anybody else how friendships work.

This is the equivalent to saying that a man who is currently divorced/not in a relationship due to a breakup isn't qualified to talk about relationships.

No, its the equivalent of telling a guy who is divorced to shut the fuck up when hes trying to tell me that marriage cant possibly work just because he failed at it.

A guy who was in a decently long relationship and got divorced has a hell of a lot more advice and input on the pros/cons/what you have to essentially deal with.

You advocate for automatically trusting and putting your faith in other people. That's a bad idea and isn't realistic unless someone deserves it.

No, I dont. At no point have I said that.

Also, Ive spent almost all of my adult life in relationships, so yes, I do feel that somebody who cant even maintain friendships is unqualified to give out advice.

You choose to be a sad, isolated man. Plenty of other people are happy, so you shouldnt act like your bleak outlook is based on the reality of how other people work. Its based on how you choose to be.

"maintain friendships?" Isn't it funny how you think that you have some authority over how friendships are maintained. As if friendships are the sole responsibility of someone, but rather both parties put in an effort.

As far as isolated. Here is the thing..I can still talk to people online, have decent convo's with them. I also still have my family, and pets. I prioritize them. People who are close. You proved my point. You would judge someone maliciously for someone who lives life different from you. And the worst part is..a lot of people think similarly to you. Someone doesn't have a ton of IRL friends? They are considered "bad" or evil.

And you want me to make an effort to talk to this type of person? Honestly, I'd rather be alone in a room than talk to people who would have no problem betraying or using me for their own gain lol
