And you wonder why you sit at home, alone, after age thirty. (Analysis in comments).

So here we have a cross section from /DatingOverThirty. Some men and some women. Notice the depressing nature of their New Year’s Eve plans. No one wants to get with friends or spend the evening enjoying any of the hundreds of free entertainment concerts put on in literally every major city in America. No one wants to walk around and look at Christmas lights. No one wants to go to a pub and shake hands with strangers and wish them a good year.

They want to go home, watch movies, play games, and be asleep by ten. One guy says maybe he’ll go to a local pub for a beer but still be home early.

No wonder these people can’t get dates. Jesus. Go out and make a life for yourself. Go do something fun. Break out of your comfort zones.

Let me be fuckin’ blunt: 2019 is your year to shine. I challenge every motherfucker in this forum to get a raise of at least four percent, drop ten pounds of fat, read at least twelve books (six of which should be nonfiction), and pick up one new hobby you’ve never done before— I don’t care if it’s playing the kazoo.

By 2020, I expect you to be shining stars. Now get off your ass and make plans for New Year’s Eve. Restaurants are filling up fast.

Sigh.

"I could go spend NYE with my best friend, but her friends are assholes. Boring in the burbs. I could travel to see other friends, but those friends aren't worth airfare. I could volunteer, but ... lame.

"I have no life because i hate people and they hate me back, i'm pessimistic, life sucks all the time, and people suck.

"Can someone tell me why i'm 35 and single? Can someone tell me why i have no socializing options? Can someone tell me why i have few friends and almost no options for holiday fun? I can't figure it out."

Women have two interests: dressing slutty for attention and drinking so they can act slutty and get attention.

IME, women's interests are molded by the guys they're fucking. I've yet to meet a woman whose hobbies weren't driven by an exbf. So, it doesn't surprise me that those same women can't go out to a social event to celebrate without the status of being someone's date. I.e. someone else makes the plans, pays for everything, and she simply shows up to have fun.

Cats it is.

If the poster doesn't have many friends at the age of 32 I suspect the poster has some issues.

Radical idea.

* Make some new friends.

Shocking! Utterly shocking! Just found the solution to her problems. Cool, I'll take the $150/hour she was going to spend on a therapist.
