Theory Romantic Desire Doesn't Fade Like Sex Drive

It’s true that testosterone declines with age and so does raw sexual desire. But nobody talks about how romantic longing works differently. You don’t "outgrow" wanting love.

At 20, you crave sex and companionship. At 50, the sex drive fades, but the hole left by never having a girlfriend doesn’t disappear. It mutates.

This is why the "just wait, you’ll care less" cope is flawed. Sexual frustration fades, romantic isolation lingers. Morons conflates the two because they can’t fathom love and sex as separate.

A 40-year-old incel isn’t tormented by horniness. He’s haunted by the lifetime of meals eaten alone, sleeping alone, seeing couples everywhere, holidays with no one to share them. That’s not testosterone, that’s wanting a connection.

The worst part is that the older you get, the more invisible you become. Old lonely men are ghosts. Their desire remains, but their opportunities evaporate.

It's important to know and understand this so that you see the trap before you step in.
 
True romantic desire stays pretty much forever
 
"youre not entitled to fulfill your romantic desire inkwell" :soy:
 
Facts. Loneliness only grows more cruel with age.
 
Humans are social creatures. Most people who claim to enjoy solitude are merely because the people they encountered before were the ones they disliked. Even the most private individuals will sometimes feel lonely, long for communication, or simply desire to be noticed. In fact, everyone has an interesting soul. However, many people, especially incels, don't have the chance to have their souls carefully observed by others. As a result, the act of being seen is somewhat similar to love.
