As non-psychopathic humans, we feel a wide array of emotions, and desire many things we believe will bring us happiness. We suffer when these desires are seemingly unattainable, and feel envy against those able to experience pleasures we never did. This is a thread to compile and walk you through the feelings you're missing out on because of your situation, which you're in for no fault of your own. Just because some men get rough breakups and divorces where they lose a lot of material things doesn't mean these feelings are not worth experiencing.
Now imagine: Being a normal-looking guy with a decent height. With sweet anxiousness, asking out that colleague you like for lunch. A rush of happiness and hope as she says "yes." Being upbeat thanks to this, and getting along well with even your acquaintances you don't care for. The joy of the companionship of someone you desire so deeply. Your heart fluttering as you look at her face. Good times, more dates, getting closer, passion building. The happiness doesn't wane, it's not as transient as your hedonistic pleasures. Finally, touch. Warmly embracing a person you love. First semblances of intimacy. Building up to something more. Happily dreaming of your future together when you're alone.
A relationship is born. Your partner's companionship being even more valuable and joyful now that you know her. The intimacy you have with her irreplaceable, not even by the most expensive prostitute in the world. Being loved and desired by another person. Experiencing new things together. Your bond strengthening with your mutual connections, and your characters building with each other's exclusive interests.
Aging. Slowly losing your own family that you were born with, but gaining a new one you built yourself. Loneliness a past, distant memory. Finally, dying peacefully, fading into black nothingness being immensely eased with the companionship of your loved ones.
This is something we'll never have. That is why we suffer. Never forget that, lest you become complacent, and neglect taking your well-deserved revenge against the society that has withheld this from us with its extreme cruelty and coldness.
