The only thing keeping me going is the hope that I can get physical with a girl.

I know how that sounds.

I’ve been single for 11 years. Dumped at 18 two days after my birthday and today I turn 29.

I’m so incredibly lonely and touch deprived that I need this.

I get on the stationary bike every morning, turn on videos of celebrity crushes, mute it, and listen to heavy music.

Then before bed I do that again.

And it works.

I also reread anecdotal stories of guys who have posted on Reddit about the significant difference of attention they’ve received from women after weight loss. And I have a good face so chances seem like I’ll be able to relate to those stories.

A girl walked by me with a friend a few months ago and whispered that I’m cute into the friend’s ear louder than expected and I’m still riding that high.

I know this sounds sad. I know you’ll recommend therapy. I know you’ll say “what happens if you don’t get the attention.”

I’m good. I’m desperate but I’m good.
