So, backstory: I'm 23 in a new city with little connections. No girlfriend or "plates".

Finding girls off dating apps - yeah forget it. I'm an above average looking guy, in shape, and I dress well. I use professional photos. But somehow I only deserve to match with transvestites and land whales.

I refuse to do the "cold approach" method anymore either, wasting valuable hours of my life walking around talking to women like a beggar.

At this point, I guess the only option is to suck it up and just focus on myself. I'm not sure why meeting a decent woman in 2021 is impossible. I'm not sure why my SMV has to be +5 hers to deserve her companionship. Fuck it, it is what it is.

But, at the end of the day I am a human being and no matter how hard I try, I can't be happy if I'm not getting steady sex and female companionship.

So how should I go about things here?
