when i first heard about the male loneliness epidemic i was like oh yeah close camaraderie and bonding between men is often discouraged in favor of competition or, if not discouraged, at least filtered through a lens of individualism that precludes deep connections. and then i learned what people meant by it (men arent getting laid) to which i say skill issue

to all the men out there not getting laid: try less hard to get laid and try more hard to be an enjoyable and relaxing presence

Alright then, tell us your criteria for men to follow to be truly lonely, since you're so sure that BPD apparently disqualifies you.

What? All I am saying is that this person isn't the target of this post. It sounds like they would have a very hard time doing the things the OP suggested. There is more than one way to be not lonely. I hope they try some other advice that is easier for them.
