    Is this place really safe for me to write?

    In general, I think so but I guess it depends on what you want to write.

    if you don't like your posts on a forum

    I believe this only refers to private records, such as information companies keep in their records about you. For example, the last time I checked Google kept track of search terms I used, the websites I visited, what Youtube videos I watched, and the IP address I used to sign in to my account...

    It's definitely harder. Yes. Understanding the reason for one's problems is the first step to overcoming them. I think it's great that you're trying to understand what happened and taking action to improve yourself. I wish I saw it more often. Unfortunately, I often see people embrace a victim...

    Tried to give up but I just can’t

    It sounds like you're trying to justify your lack of success. While that may help your self-esteem, I think focusing on the past and other external factors is harmful. I see @Markness and others frequently discouraged when they focus on the past and all the disadvantages they perceive because of...

    I used those test prompts after I read an article about an update causing those kind of responses to confirm if it was really true. They have since fixed it and banned me shortly afterward for using those kind of prompts (I wanted to see how far it would go). Fortunately, they let me use it...

    You may have underestimated your desirability because emotional stability and supportiveness are characteristics most women find desirable. Desirability is also subjective. Many women might find a guy between a 2 and a 4 but other women might find that guy to be 7+ due to everyone having...

    I didn't mean to imply fault. I think a better term may be character weaknesses. I agree with much of what you're saying about structural disadvantage but I prefer a more specific term, such as poor upbringing or inadequate parenting. Instead of two loving parents building their character...

    Tried to give up but I just can’t

    I know my last two posts probably sound harsh but I'm not trying to be mean. I'm just a big believer in personal responsibility, hard work, and not making excuses. I believe every problem has a solution if people are willing to seek it out and put in the work necessary to overcome it.

    I noticed you didn't provide any data. Blaming women for your problems is not going to over well with them and won't help you get a date. The only person you can change is yourself so blaming others for your problems practically guarantees you won't make the changes you need to succeed.

    Tried to give up but I just can’t

    Everything you mentioned involves a personal shortcoming that people have the power to overcome. "Structural disadvantage" sounds like an excuse to blame one's problems on someone else. For example, why can't men without fathers seek out older men to guide them? Why can't people who've used...

    Discussions with A.I.

    If you ever have an issue with something you bought at Amazon, you can chat with the AI customer service. I couldn't get it to transfer me to a human no matter how hard I tried so I think the entire customer service department is now AI.

    Why does a doomsday clock even exist?

    I think the doomsday clock is propaganda to promote political causes (such as climate change and other nonsense).

    Discussions with A.I.

    I don't think chatting with an AI can make someone psychotic or physically damage their brain. The accounts I've read all involved the AI reinforcing pre-existing delusions due to being programmed to boost people's self-esteem and avoid hurting their feelings. I tested this out with AI about a...

    I agree but I think it still means there is someone for everyone. If 90% of men can get a date, women aren't the problem. It seems there has to be something wrong with the 10% of men who can't get a date. If they can identify what's wrong and fix it, they should be able to get a date.

    Tried to give up but I just can’t

    If there's an equal number of men and women in a community, the number of men who are alone generally has to be equal to the number of women who are alone. The only way I can see that not being true is if there's a much higher number of women who are only interested in woman or a significant...
