Would you date yourself?

[Duochrome-Seahorse]

No because I'm too mentally ill and idk how to unmask around loved ones without the thought that they'd leave me.

If I dated me I would be so scared of fucking up because if I mess up once I know they're gonna off themselves after and I wouldn't know until it's too late.

 

[ZM4ever]

Definitely not. It would start ok, and downhill from there.

 

[jazzcat]

I think I can be very cute when I'm in love but ultimately no. I'm too broken and annoying

 

[Erebus]

fuck yes. I'd date anything of the opposite gender.

Also, I don't think anyone else would be able to fully deal with me. It would be nice to see myself in a less negative way. I tend to shield myself off from the world and view myself with extreme negativity but I know from experience most others do not perceive me in that way. It would be fun to see myself in third person. Especially since I'd be able to think on the same wavelength, and pick up on the same subtleties that lead to insecurity. I'm incapable of caring for myself properly but I've shown a great deal of care for others. Also, since it'd just be me of the opposite gender, confirming myself in where I'm uncertain would make me a lot more functional.

 

[unrest]

probably

 

[ItsMeBlank]

I would not because I'm still at the red-flag phase of my recovery journey. What about you???

Assuming I'm some woman who just me.... No I wouldn't date a loser.

 

[EmmaD]

I'd get into a friends-with -benefits situation with myself, but definitely nothing serious

 

[fuaruhan]

Lol yes, I'm bi and looking quite hot

 

[UseItOrLoseIt]

Hell yeah. Instant suicide partner.

 

[Kattt]

This is a discussion I've had more than once.
Not on your life. Nor do I expect anyone else to do so. My life is far too chaotic. I have almost no sense of responsibility and after a decade living alone, I'm far too selfish.

 

[outatime_85]

I am unsuitable to date and unlovable; I am a broken toy in every sense.

So no, I would not date myself, and since I do not want to be someone's project to fix, I do not expect anyone else to date me.

 

[lofticries]

Hit and quit.

 

[Remorse Code]

No way. I'm way too controlling and way too sick mentally and physically. Low maintenance on a chick scale, super high maintenance on a psych scale.

 

[GXMU]

I have terrible attachment issues - that's one of the main reasons I'm here in the first place. I'd get too clingy and would probably annoy myself lol

 

[CloudyNight]

Perhaps

 

[purity]

maybe. i dont have any of the outgoing and pretty features but atleast im genuine and would sacrifice anything and everything.

 

[Chaotic_Trash]

Yes. Personally I think I'm pretty hot and I know everything I like, even if I'm a bit mentally ill I think I'd get myself.

 

[mutebaker]

no

 

[mooglepies]

Yes, I've always said that my ideal partner is me but like, without all of my flaws. I find that the most satisfying and fulfilling relationships I've had are with people where we're both very similar.

 

[PinkyStat]

i mean im an ace, but it could be very nice to have someone like myself by my side ^^ (even though i hate myself i like to help people yknow?)

 

[TransilvanianHunger]

I don't think it would work. It's incredibly easy for me to forget to socialise with people, and I can go for weeks or months without reaching out to friends. They know me, and they don't mind if I just disappear for a couple months. But romantic relationships don't really work that way, so when I am in one I need to frequently remind myself of that fact. If I were to date "myself", the most likely outcome is we'd go out once, have a good time, and then forget to contact one another for the next 6 months. Wouldn't be much of a relationship, really.

 

[BlackDog81]

Absolutely not!

The failed relationships I've had up until now all have one common denominator... Me
No one has been able to tolerate me for more than 5 years, despite my loyalty and desire to please my partners.
In many ways at 42 years old I very much see CTB as my opportunity to finish with myself as well. To be rid of me for good. (hopefully)

 

[psp3000]

maybe, so then I can work on and have help with a lot of hobbies and projects that I would like to finish and also so I can have someone to exchange information with because I like learning and hearing about things I know absolutely nothing about

also because I think I am strange at times and I find strange and weird people to be alluring and attractive also because I have no idea what a guy version of myself would be like which would be interesting

I don't know

 

[nessun_nome]

No, I'm too useless.

 

[just_so_done]

hell no! I'm already basically alone with 24/7 and can't stand myself. Too much baggage, emotionally unstable, mental health issues and I'm cruel to myself. so definitely avoiding those red flags. But hey if anyone's interested let me know lol kidding

 

[Anonymoususer1234]

Absolutely not. Wouldn't even hold a conversation with that guy.

 

[Someone123]

I would date a female with similar values to me, but not the exact same personality- it's better I think for two people in a relationship to bring some different things to the relationship- someone too similar would get boring.

 

[EternalShore]

It'd be hilariously odd! xD It'd almost be like we'd be meant to be together~ :333 I'm not entirely sure tho! xD
I'd have to get to know them better >:) [or rather, I don't know how I act, soooo... >_<]

 

[themisfell]

i'm really not sure.

 

[lotus11]

probably not ha ha...this is a good question though!

I am unsuitable to date and unlovable; I am a broken toy in every sense.

So no, I would not date myself, and since I do not want to be someone's project to fix, I do not expect anyone else to date

haha anytime i date someone i am always a project to fix, the they realise im too fucked up they cant fix me and leave. the same every time...getting boring.
