I spiral into depression every time I get rejected...

Like a child who cries when they stub their toe, a man will spiral into depression when they aren't used to rejection. Go toughen yourself up to rejection.

There is also potential that you have issues with mental health. Do you or have you considered getting support?

No because I'm outcome independent.

The fastest a gal has ever gotten me to THINK about LTR is over a year of being my plate.

I never met a woman before and said "wow, LTR material." I look for red flags, not green ones.

Yeah I used to until I realized I was totally lying to myself about these girls and assuming they must care about me the same as I did about them.

You're building it up too much, you're making it too important in your head.

How many times have you been rejected in your life?

Rejection is better than regret.

I make it a point to talk to any girl any time anywhere. And that's it I try and talk to her. I dont put the horse before the cart.

Step 1, give up on that romantic mumbo jumbo. It's killing your vibe man. Step 2, read up on women and how they reject. They do this all the time and usually it's for random bullshit reasons that have nothing to do with you.

Women are gonna be women.

Reframe the situation. You feel depressed because you feel powerless. Instead use the rejection as feedback and realize that if you are proactive every rejection is a learning experience that is one step closer to being successful.
