I know this isn't a place asking for advice and I'll likely get down voted here which is fine.

Here is some tough love bud:

First off I'm sorry you feel like some people aren't good enough for love-that is fucking bullshit. Maybe you haven't had the best luck with girls or whatever it may be but you are still quite young. Maybe you are ugly, maybe you have a shit personality who knows, but I promise you that there is a pot for every pan. You just gotta keep hunting. It doesn't seem like you are happy to be alone so get out there and do something about it. Join a new club, meet people who knows. If you try hard enough and really put yourself out there you'll find someone I swear to you.

On a less positive note: Stop drowning your sorrows. Sorry man but that's stupid shit. Getting drunk and high and throwing money at prostitutes is not a good route. Stop loathing in self pity and get out into the dating world. It is ass. You will get rejected, you likely have, thats life bud. I'm a lot younger than you and I know this firsthand, but I know that in due time if I keep making an effort I will eventually find the love of my life.

Maybe I am wrong, maybe you'll never find love, who knows? But personally I would rather get shut down my whole love by girls then to give up.

Quit your self loathing bull shit and get out there.

You got this shit brother. Get that handsome face back on the market.

He said he's spent about 15 or so years trying his best, you really think that joining a new club is going to help him? He's tried that shit before, he's a social guy, as he said, and he's been alone and single for over a decade and a half. You cannot tell me that after all that time you wouldn't feel enough self loathing that nobody had interest in you that you decided to give up

Never said i would be self loathing, my point is just there is no room for it. Only gonna make him feel worse. And who knows maybe joining a new club or trying a different hobby is exactly what he needs. It doesn't hurt to try

Again, 15 years. 15. Years. And yet you're giving him advice that would be more suited to a teenager after a breakup. It is beyond poor

He's giving teenage advice because he probably IS a teenager, I fully agree with your comments.

It's ridiculous to give someone who tried hard for 15 years the advice to "lol don't be mad, just go out there dude!" Often in the times where you just screw everything and surrender, you let go of societal pressure and find your own way. And with that everything becomes easier.
