I am actually putting that on my list of things that are becoming a hard no because they have extreme consequences later on and I see it as a sign of not being a functional human being and I can't be around that ever again.

Easy no. They will become different off meds same as they morph on meds

Yup. They should be open to different approaches. If they aren't, can 'em.

Well, I don't have a queue in line to date me, so it is all moot and existential at this point. 🤣🤣🤣

Pretend you do lol! It'll do wonders.

How?

When you respect yourself and are comfortable just being by yourself, it attracts people. And it also puts you in the mindset of "I'm not gonna take any shit or compromise with anybody." You'll cooperate, but never sacrifice a core value. You'll know that you don't need to.

I don't respect myself at all. I don't take crap from anyone, though. I know I'm an odd duck. 🤣🤣🤣

Awesome, you're on the right track. Work on the former part. Don't even take crap from yourself. A really exceptional partner can help you develop that in yourself, but you have to do most of the work even then. So start now, and the bitches will come soon enough.

Nope

Too lazy. So, I'm resigned to being alone.

Lol, if that is your choice! Do what you care about most out of the things under your control. If you do that, you will find lasting happiness, whatever form it might take, and you might not be able to predict it.

Nope. I'll just be an amiable (sometimes) curmudgeon.

If you don’t respect yourself, how can you expect anyone else to respect you?

I don't. I'm not hypocritical about that.

Agree with this

I don't understand how that is supposed to work. At all.

Completely fair

I would certainly do that as well. I'll need to put that on a list of no-nos that are non-negotiable.
