Background - growing up I was socially stunted. Had a few flings in uni but since moving back home (Toronto is uber expensive and on my salary im afford to move out), dating has been a struggle. The last 7 years I have spent trying to learn daygame, nightgame, because I am generally unable to have a fulfilling dating life off the apps.Unfortunately now Im at the point where im banned from tinder for making accounts too many times, hinge is very on and off (get quite a few matches but they rarely respond), and last few dates ive been on the girl has been less attractive than her pic and I cut things off. I am completely stuck in my head and unfortunately over past few years have embraced a bit of the blackpill mindset where literally your face is the #1 most important thing that matters to a woman. Walking around yesterday seeing couples of all shapes and sizes made me start to question my sanity. I start to think "wtf is so wrong with me" that not a single decently attractive woman would be open to starting a conversation with me? I feel as though I am a complete repellant to women and as a man pushing 30 Im really starting to worry. I def want a long-term partner and family one day, but right now I feel that is unattainable. I'm not even looking for a long-term partner at this second just because I feel I have missed out on so many formative experiences with women, so right now I just wanna live the seduction reddit lifestyle. It's gotten so bad that ive been sleeping with escorts just to get myself off and prevent myself from going crazy - even though I know that shit is killing me on the inside. Starting to wonder if maybe my standards are too high, although i tend to think my standards are reasonable.
