This is a common bit of "advice" I see online. However, what if getting a girlfriend would solve my problems?
For one, I might actually stop hating myself. I'd no longer see myself as this ugly, autistic subhuman, but as an actual human being with inherent value. I'd finally be able to be myself around people, because why should I care what some random person thinks of me if I have a girlfriend who likes me just the way I am?
Second, I'd actually develop the motivation to do something with my life. I mean, what's the point of living when I know I'm going to die alone? If I had a girlfriend, I'd have someone to build a future with even after my mom dies. I'd finish college, get a job, start living a normal existence.
Having a girlfriend would be the ultimate validation, the ultimate "take that!" towards everyone who has ever look down on me. It's not just about sex, it's about feeling normal and finally experiencing the love and intimacy that human beings are naturally drawn to.
