      worth mentioning this sub in particular is kinda half-ironic half-serious. There’s quite a difference between this ‘aesthetic’ and actual incel culture which is pretty disgusting.

      You don’t need to be particularly hot to not be a femcel, lots of kind-of-ugly people are in relationships. It’s all about the social skills and being able to find people you gel with. And, considering the character in the post, not having crippling psychological issues.

      Most people seem surprised to find out that I’ve made it into my 30s without ever finding a girlfriend. Many women have told me “wow, I’d love to find a guy like you”…the obvious implication being not me.

      I imagine it’s not that different for women who struggle to find relationships.

        I’m told I’m hot, but I seldom get hit on, and it’s usually someone I am uncertain about and can onoy say “Uh…” to.
