Starting to think the thing where when you're single you're supposed to pretend to be totally fine with it is counterproductive

I don’t know about women, but the reason men do this is that women are extremely allergic to anything with even the slightest hint of desperation. I swear, they can smell it upwind at 10,000 meters.

So if you’re a man, you have to pretend as hard as you can that you don’t really want a relationship, you’re absolutely perfect like you are, that no, you don’t even know what the word “lonely” means, thank you. And you must do that to even have a shot.
