If someone wants to give up dating due to their looks, age or genetics (that includes mental state) that’s a totally valid reason if you ask me. As long as it doesn’t translate to misogyny no one will get hurt. However a lot of people seem to be ticked off by this idea, why?
It does not sound like a happy bunch to hang around. Is that what you aspire to have as a part of your identity?
Well it makes no difference whether you do or don’t. That’s the point of taking the black pill.
If you don’t date because you are ugly/mental/whatever and thus black pilled then that is a part of your identity. Instead you spend all the time playing games.
If you don’t date because you put zero effort into your looks because you’re busy playing video games then games becomes a part of your identity.
You’re doing exactly the same thing but your choice is what emotional baggage comes with the crowd you choose to identify with. That in turn will influence you and your own mental well being over the decades.
