If you ever:
You're not too ugly to get a social circle and subsequently a fat ugly gf through mere-exposure effect. Nobody who has posted their pics on this site is (not even @reptiles ). Most of us are average - above average on the IRL scale.
The unfortunate truth is: the fact that we are even aware of, let alone post on, forums like this speaks volumes about our social abilities. All of us are at least a little non-NT.
There are very few mental disorders that would turn someone into a forum-browsing mentalcel. Autism is one, but even then autists can have a social circle with other autists. But from reading many posts here, most of us are not autistic. Another is schizoid personality disorder, but a schizoid wouldn't want to use a forum about self help as they are comfortable being hermits.
The last is avoidant personality disorder, AKA life on nightmare death difficulty. It is an all-encompassing term for all the negative traits I listed above, and it doesn't get better. I guarantee many of you will relate to a lot of these points. Even if you looksmaxxed as hard as you could, you'd still have shit neurotransmitters and if you had AvPD, you'd still never capitalize on your opportunities and just cruise on the validation because it is easy and risk-free. This is the common thread that ties us all together.
- Don't respond to texts
- Ghost people
- Decline invitations to social events
- Desire social interaction but at the same time don't because of anxiety
- Feel unwilling to be with people unless you are certain they will accept you
- Have an intense fear of social rejection or embarrassment (high inhib)
- Prefer rotting to social interaction
- Have extreme self-loathing
- Spend your Saturday nights browsing some obscure male only basket weaving forum almost entirely populated by hindu dindus and vodka chugging Eastern Europeans
