I think its not that getting a girl will make you a real man, but it can make you a more complete man. because then you realize it has nothing to you as a man - it can help you grow, and you need to experience this to learn many aspects of being a man. thats about it. so its a stepping stone, like a building block. a learning experience. once you do this several times, hopefully you learn more about women and mostly YOURSELF and find your true purpose as a man.
why do you think so? it can be plenty of purposes. the moment you start creating, learning, discovering etc you die.
I'd argue it still isn't too late. I mean, I'm 28 and I never had a girlfriend before. I'm not really in a rush to date though, to be honest. Though admittedly, I struggled with getting women interested in me when I was younger. I guess I now realize that I don't really need to try and win women over the way I used to. There's more to life than girls. A friend of mine once offered to set me up on a date with this one girl, who I decided just wasn't right for me, so I respectfully declined. I guess the point here is that I just don't think too much about it. I'm not worried about it in the slightest now, and everything is fine. It's better than getting frustrated over it and turning into an angry incel (I'd rather not do that.).
Look man, I'm single and I'm proud of that. If you're not in a relationship with a female, now it's the time not to start that because most of females are succubus that has jezebel spirits inside of them and they're going to take your energy and you will feel miserable. Google search jezebel spirit succubus and you'll understand why. Sooner or later you'll change your mind. Peace.
Love is different. It's built with trust, confidence, getting closer, talking to each other etc etc. But not real quick
more testosterone floating in you increases your chances of getting/maintaining a girl. when i was 17, even before then, i wanted a girl. i wanted wanted wanted, but never took the courage to start approaching women. nothing just happens. no man with a girl suddenly had her fall into his lap. sure some people have more courage than others by nature, but for some of us we need to focus on finding the courage within. its not going to happen by jerking off your natural hormones away. think about everytime you want to masturbate to porn, how aggressive you might be, how you may even show dominance in front of a pc screen (we all been here). that same vigor is inside you and instead of wasting it on stupid self pleasuring videos you should be utilizing it on women ready to pleasure u. remember women find testosterone very seductive so the more of that floating inside you, the better chances you have of getting a gf. just break the habit, youll be fine I promise.
haha maybe but i am really only helping based on what ive seen, heard, and realized in the past. if theres something you don't agree with please feel free to tell me otherwise, infact i would hope you did because it would challenge my thought process.
