It still shocks me just how many pathetic self-loathing men are out there. It's been my experience that a vast majority of these guys had an extremely weak or nonexistent father/male figure when growing up.

Just curious....what do they do that makes you think they're self-loathing?

Quite a few people do it. It's pretty popular.

Doesn't mean it isn't weird. I definitely don't know anyone "smoking" flavored water. I don't think I know anyone that smokes tobacco anymore either, its something that is pretty uncommon these days. Apart from one or two people that might have an occasional cig when drinking.

It used to be you saw smokers lining up outside office buildings, no more.

It's practically ubiquitous with these kinds of people. For every let's say 100 pathetic guys that post in this thread or read this thread and can relate, 99 of them will do absolutely nothing to change their situation. They'll ***** about how only looks matter and that they were dealt a raw deal, but it's a practically a guarantee that there are like 5 other more important fixable deficiencies that are holding them back. They don't want to change, they want a sounding board for wallowing.

For reference, I used to run a small personal business in college that helped guys get dates and get laid. My biggest success story was a 5'4", average at best looking, FOB Asian guy who spoke broken English, considering I even helped him get some action (albeit dude had no fear with women and he took lessons to heart). Now no, this guy was never going to have model caliber 9s and 10s drooling all over him, and I told him this because I wasn't some PUA huckster, but I showed him that he clearly can attract and maintain a relationship with a decent woman. Most loser guys just want this transition to be super easy, which it is not especially when one has been a sad loser their entire life.

I could write an entire step-by-step EffortPoast on life changes to make for all the pathetic guys in this thread, and most wouldn't even try it, and the few who did would come up with excuses (work, money, stress, whatever) and quit within 2 weeks.

Just because it doesn't match YOUR experience it doesn't mean it's weird or it's problem.

You really like to use that word a lot. Calling another person's experience weird just because it doesn't match your experience is not cool.

You don't find sitting around and inhaling vaporized flavored water, weird? I'm sorry, that is weird. And if me saying so makes me uncool, so be it. I never claimed to be cool.
