I Don't Date because...

I'm fat, boring, jobless, plain looking, have poor social skills, don't know how to respond to conversations, have a hard time connecting, and horrible at keeping friends, and staying in touch. Other than that, I suffer from depression, and anxiety, and tend to overthink a lot plus I'm asexual. All I do these days is get stuck on the internet, and playing video games, very unmotivated to do anything, and binge eat my feelings away. I've been living in a hole I can't seem to get out of no matter how hard I try...life is too cruel to me in the past that's why I'm stuck the way I am. There are days that I just stay in bed, and want everything to end.

My family is right, I guess I really am undateable. At least I'll save people from someone like me...I'm destined to be alone.

reading this, it seems this is the way you want to be without wanting the change for yourself

I have a gf. but that doesn't mean I rely on her to provide me happiness, it starts within, I also have PTSD, clinical depression and social anxiety.

I will never stop myself from enjoying life like others, and I urge you to do the same, this is your time to be the change you want,

The only person that can hold your dream back is yourself.

If you want change you will do just that.

@Gangstress I agree but I don't want to change the whole me by faking it in order to attract people...that's just not me. And sometimes depression, and anxiety is extremely crippling. One day you feel motivated, then you're in the darkest pits the next. It's hard to live everyday for me.

@bittersweethermit what will you be faking?

@Gangstress Like, my personality just to get people to like me. I've tried that before, and it went ugly fast. I just can't stomach it. I want to stay true to myself, even if people will judge me.
