>>1701995The point of life is to find fulfillment, and if finding love isn't your definition of fulfillment, than so be it. Do what makes you happy!
However, if your lost of interest is just because you are discouraged, you are doing yourself a disservice. I'm a pretty chubby guy, and I've been single for a long while now. I can't count the amount of times I've been rejected, and yet I still try because I know it's something I want.
Story time cause I feel like it. There was this girl in school I thought was cute, so I decided to talk to her. We came bffs (and still are, too an extent) but I wanted to date her. Eventually I asked her out in the cringiest way by singing to her, and she said no. A few weeks pass and I finally ask why, and she admits it's because I'm fat and unnattractive. I decide to lose weight, and in the most unhealthy way possible I lose 45 - 50lbs in 6 weeks. I go from 240lb to 190lb. I ask her out again, and she says yes. We're happy for a few months, and I put on some of the weight again, and she broke up with me because she lost interest, which I eventually got her to admit was because I was fat. She's still one of my best friends but she's a shallow bitch, and it still hurts when I think about it. Now she asks me for dating advice for the new guys she's after.
Currently I'm 215lb, but I don't think I'll ever be able to re-do what I did for her. And I just hope whatever girl I go after wants me for me. The last girl I tried to go out with is a good friend, but a total recluse who sucks at talking online, outside of one word answers which is funny since IRL she never stops talking. I can only get her to leave her house to see Scifi or Hero movies, otherwise she hides at home or is in classes at college. It's gotten to the point where I feel weird initiating every conversation online though, and don't wanna over do it - Here's hoping the SU hiatus ends soon so we have a reason to talk again. Otherwise, I think I've lost this battle too :(
