So, I know my lizard brain is going to tell me to talk to an attractive woman, which I learned best done at the grocery store, bar, public event, etc because I done all those things. Where I live, the mask mandate is expected to end july 1st so I'm probably going to see woman's faces which probably will spark attraction in my brain. But I'm going to do my best to try to have goals to focus more on myself. If I want company with a lady, I'll just check out escorts, but I'm ok with just jacking off to insta/tiktok/hentai/etc as it's cheaper. (Plus I only seen escorts once every 6 months and imo they're not worth the hefty price tag they think they're worth for the services they give.) I'm the prize; I got 15k+ in emergency funds, 10k in investments, a 790+ credit score, belly fat not so bad, accepted a new job for higher pay and more skills, no criminal record (knock wood), and turning 34. Maybe if the ship turns itself around, I'll consider dating again as I don't believe ALL women are out to get good men, but given the way society is, I don't think that's likely at all, I might just stick with planning to get a doll. Plus, keeping up with a woman's hypergamy in my own opinion isn't worth it; let them be more like men getting their promotions, earning more, and being overvalued on social media. This in turn actually hurts them in the long run as their hypergamy backfires on them when they age and maybe turn into a Karen. I know I'm still a bit bitter towards women who don't care to know anything about me and just write me off as some creep, but I'm working to get over that by focusing on my goals and minimize my chances of getting #metoo'd by them.
