I made a similar post a couple of years ago, but I think it’s time again after seeing a few nice-guy/incel posts here. So, guys who have made it to the other side, what would you say to your previous self? I’ll leave my own personal answer in a comment below.
90% of what the TV and society told you doesn’t apply.
You aren’t just weird, you have definable conditions.
Go to therapy.
Your needs are as valid as anyone else’s.
Oh my god I thought rom-coms were pure romance and real. They are not. Breaking down most romcoms the vast majority are stalkerish behavior and refusing to accept no. Not like real life at all. Learning that one was hard for me.
Yeah. I thought it was exaggerated a little for TV, but, no, that stuff can be straight up harassment irl
