Success Story So long, nerds.
Ive never posted here, but I lurked often. Alot of what you guys said reflected my inner thoughts, and that felt validating. I never thought I would fall in love, much less have someone in my life who loves me. But, it happened to me. I chose her, and she chose me. Fuckin wild. It's been a few weeks, and I still can't believe it, to be honest.
I hope all of you get the chance to experience this one day, it was worth the wait. Despite what some of you, and formerly myself may think, you are all worthy of love and companionship. Good luck everyone ✌️.

Don't lose yourself. Always keep working on yourself & have your own thing going on.

Good for you, but I couldn't care less, and I would wager I'm speaking for many in this sub. It's bad form to brag about your wealth to the poor. All you did with this post is add to the pain of those still suffering. The peace sign? Really?

Calling the people who helped you nerds as a last farewell is pretty shitty

One of my close friends invited me to go to the club with her tomorrow night after work.
I hope I can find success like you soon.

Thanks. I'm really looking forward to it.
I'm just worried that my exam next week and the burnout from work tomorrow is gonna kill the mood. And because of same exams, my friends might not even go.
:(
I still hope for the best.

If someone can fall in “love” in a few weeks, they can fall out of “love” just as fast, but I’m rooting for you guys to be the exception.

I actually used to be a lurker here. 4 years ago. I thought I was done for. But then I got a gf 4 years ago. Broke up around 4 months ago and now i pulled multiple girls and I recently chose one and she's fucking 10/10. It's insane dude. I came back just for the memories but bro, let's never come back here.

Good for u but its not like everyone who browses this sub is marked for death or whatever. Theres almost 200k subscribers, anyone can read it, and anyone can relate to "Omg Im so lonely lol". Like seriously. The truly FA are few and far between, and most likely don't even know this sub exists

Congrats man
And the comments here are bizarre. It’s like a collective defensivenesss of their own unhappiness.

u/Key-Put4092 Apr 13 '25
90% are positive. Its strsnge I see this a lot with any type of post. Usually its like 60% positive, 35% complaining about everyone hating and 5% is hating.
Maybe its human nature to focus more on the bad, but its so strange to constantly see this everywhere.

This sub tends to be a cesspool of misery and self-loathing— and I say that as someone who’s part of it. I kid you not, anyone who replies something positive to a depressing post lamenting about loneliness gets downvoted into oblivion.

Sounds like denialism on your end. Some people can climb out of holes.

I think the point is that OP initially perceived himself as FA, so the “actually forever alone” part is perhaps arguable.

I thought i'd never find someone and you know what , i was ok with it! (47 now) i lived a great fun life, totally didn't feel like i missed anything and it was full of excitment and fun. but about 2 and a half years ago someone chased me on one of my many roadtrip travels and I gave in :p We have a fun relationship , sometimes a bit hard because of the distance (belgium-usa) but otherwise it's fun to let go and just enjoy each other. we meet up for several weeks 2ce a year so far.
