And if I don't shave, when I'm in the elevator and it stops between floors, people sometimes look at me strangely and say, "Go ahead, I'll wait for the next one."

It doesn't attract anyone. It repels them perfectly.

You're just lucky that you don't go out much. Do you know how many people like to pity and sympathize, and also ask if you're okay? Let's see how you'll manage for another couple of years without updates!

You know how many people love to pity and sympathize, and also ask if everything is alright with you? Let's see how you'll manage for another couple of years without updates!

I've never encountered such people. I've been using Aura since 2013. And back then, I almost went out of the house every day. You probably just have a weak build. You invested everything in constitution, didn't you?

And if I don't shave, when I'm riding in the elevator and it stops between floors, people sometimes look at me strangely and say, "go ahead, I'll wait for the next one."

And once, I shaved, and they told me I looked younger. I added that it was by about five years, and they replied that it was even more. And this was when I was 22. I still don't understand if I look like a schoolboy without a beard, or like a 35-year-old man with a beard.

A 35-year-old schoolboy.

Well, you can see for yourself. My old version didn't work properly, but in recent years, after switching to the new one, everything has been working perfectly.

So, this girl from Default City came to visit us. I was sitting in my office, working, and she wandered around the whole factory. Then she came in, looked at me, and said, "Why are you so sad? You're so beautiful... and sad..." I was stunned where I was sitting.

I was often asked why I looked so sad. Usually, this happened when I was standing somewhere, lost in thought.

It's a shame that Arandor stopped taking the bus... after Revan's post, I realized how much I missed them...

Arandor was just recently sharing some cool stories, and then he mentioned that he liked some guy at work.

I was chatting with a girl in the train vestibule. She seemed nice, cute... No, I didn't approach her with the intention of asking for her name or phone number; I don't usually do that, it just happened spontaneously (I helped her close the toilet door, haha). But the point is, after we had a good conversation, I noticed a ring on that finger, and I quickly made my excuses and left... Actually, no, I just politely ended the conversation.

Well, now I definitely won’t be going to meet Ment.

Why?

Maybe I'm just dumb, but what's the actual problem?

Well, look.
a) Only girls with East Asian features can make my heart beat faster; I won't exaggerate and admit that yes, there are enough pretty and even beautiful Russian girls, but they don't interest me at all, and my blood doesn't start flowing faster.
b) I decided a long time ago that I won't get involved with girls from the CIS countries for many reasons.
c) I objectively understand that I don't really need these relationships. I'm unlikely to be able to get my ideal and fairytale scenario that I've been dreaming of since I was 15-16 (I wrote about it earlier in this or a neighboring topic), and the one that I see, as I already said, doesn't look very promising in the future. There's a 90% chance that it will be a waste of money and time.
d) On the other hand, maybe these possible 10% are exactly what I need...
e) And the main issue, if we forget about my desires, is that I don't have my own place, and part of my money goes towards rent (or I'm staying with relatives).

That's it.

I don't have my own place, and part of my income goes towards rent.

For some, it's a problem, but for others, it's just an extra reason to look for a relationship...

Well, technically yes, but you understand...
