How many of you were told to not worry, that there's someone out there for you?

[grapeisfun]

I've heard this whenever I complained about not being able to get a GF since I was like 19. They told me not to worry or told me to get my money up. Now I'm almost 32 and people in my immediate family are worrying that I'm going to die alone. My grandma, brother, dad, even my mother said, "that life of solitude is such a sad one" Like wtf, did you expect things to get better somehow as I got older and worse-looking? I'm guessing what they really meant to say was: "Don't worry, eventually some woman will settle for you."

My parents did when I was young, as was one of the women in college I really liked who chose Chad over me (kek).

I'll believe them when it happens.

Don't know man. My copes are running thin now.

Some did and some straight up said ‘you’ll die alone’. At the time I thought they were being cunts now I understand there was some harsh truth to it

My dad says this kind of crap to me on a regular basis

All the time

I still get gaslit by everyone at 25, especially my parent’s don’t want to accept it’s over for me, maybe when I hit the wizard age then the realisation will finally hit them, maybe…..

When you get older you stop deluding yourself compared to when you were younger, not too long ago I started to try to erase the entire concept of me ascending with a foid, it’s as fictional as a unicorn from another galaxy.

THats what everyones parents say because for most normal people it is true. Eventually they find someone.

I did the same thing and complained to my parents. “Everything will fall into place”, or “theres someone out there for everyone”
