I envy those who have money and have a girlfriend to share moments with

That's all I ever wanted but was never able to get it.

a loving girlfriend would be enough for me, but i'll never get it.

impossible.

Me too fellas, me too. I'm at a point where I've hyped up the idea of having one so much that I know I'm setting myself up for future disappointment and heartache that I just refuse to deal with.

Most men aren't so lucky with the current crop available. Being single is a blessing in this ultra feminist society. "I need a man like a fish needs a bicycle" and that was only first wave feminism too.

women are privileged. besides, they don't need sex so much.
broken, cruel and vile world

There are those who have both and still want to CTB

Me too! except that I'm gay, but same thing.

 

[StringPuppet]

I feel the same way but at the same time I see that a lot of people in relationships are miserable too, they only persist because they're afraid of being alone. I'd rather be single forever than be a source of someone else's misery. Just a small personal comfort, idk if it makes sense.

Women don't like sex? Sure they do

Although this is also true, one exemple that I know and I admire as a great writer is David Foster Wallace. Apparently he had everything.

Where do you get this idea from? I've seen plenty of women deny claims like this

 

[Good4Nothing]

Me too. I miss having girlfriends. I'm afraid those days are long behind me. I'm an old hermit now.

 

[awfullife]

The dudes with money are tired of fucking their girlfriend and all they think about is how much more money the guy next to them has

It's nothing to write home about. I've been around the carousel countless times and been with partners I wasted years with, gave up everything for, and moved away for. Not to say there's never a diamond in the rough, but the bad ones seem to be plenty and you'll never know until its too late. Once you've been through the same shit over and over again countless times the last thing you want is another girl.

Threads like these support pro-lifers' claim that people here are actually in need of "help" and don't actually want to CTB.

 

[All washed up]

And there are many who have neither but don't want to ctb

I wish I had gone for every chance presented so i could be jaded and definitely done with this life.

Is it hard to believe that many here should seek help before ctb?

 

[lost guy]

I'd rather be poor and experience true love than be rich and never experienced true love.

I just want her back.

So then you already experienced it?

 

[Coffeandamug]

Also true. Every case is unique

 

[VivaldiBR]

I envy those who are satisfied and happy, whether single or dating.

Sadly I have to agree. I respect people who have legitimately exhausted all resources and have actually lived their life to know what is and isn't left for them for ctb. As well as those with actual depression and other issues. Wanting to kill yourself because you have no girlfriend just seems like young naivety to me, not to sound mean or anything.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

the frustration caused by this realization makes me want to leave instantly.
in fact, i do not know of a stronger encouragement to death for myself

Also my exact thoughts, though I occasionally relapse into clinging onto some hope. :/

 

[Coffeandamug]

But a lot of people here really want help. I think what the pro-lifers get wrong is that not everyone wants nor needs it, and there's a great chance people who CBT already had ehxausted their resources. After all dying is not a trivial task. I think that's why there's also a support forum. Those who want help should get it, but those who don't want help anymore and just want to go should also have the right to do so.

sorry, i deleted my message. i don't want to get involved in silly arguments with pro-lifers that come to this topic.
they won't change anything for me anyway :(

i understand you

 

[lost guy]

Yes. And I'd do anything to get her back. I do believe we will reconcile one day, if I'm still here. Until which ever one, I'll remain loyal.

I think for people like me even though I have yet to experience it and exhaust this option, I know for a fact that any relationship I enter is going to be bad for all involved. Either someone gets with me purely to take advantage of me or I could end up settling out of fear and ultimately still making us both even more unhappy. It does hurt to know that my inexperience is exactly why I'm unfit for any girlfriend at my age. Sure 26 is relatively young but not when almost everyone else has been getting dates since they were in their teens. Any smart girl who looks at me would rightfully assume that there must be valid reasons for this being the case, reasons which they'd be smart enough to use themselves and reject me for.

Knowing that and faced with the crippling realization that my biology programmed me to make it my only thing worth living for, why shouldn't I be allowed to die then rather than potentially make mine or someone else's life more miserable?

So maybe OP has exhausted all resources and it's why he wishes he hadn't. What if a girlfriend were the only thing that could bring you happiness except that you were permanently debilitated in bed and never able to date? It's not very sympathetic.

Not necessarily. I've read that amongst the younger generations the percentage of people who haven't had sex as a teen or in their twenties is increasing a lot. Social media and the like make it seem different.

 

[StringPuppet]

Why are we all assuming op meant he'd be permanently happy if he had these things
