i'm trying to date again, and I keep running into the same problem where I have better taste and style than the girl, and it gives me the ick.

Like when I go to a girl's apartment and her room has a bunch of those fucking target plastic storage bins out on display and she has no duvet cover and plastic microfiber bed-sheets and she's wearing something she bought on amazon. All I can think is "how did you fail at your gender role this badly". It's like if I asked a girl to kill a bug for me because I was scared or change my tires. It's impossible for there to be a heterosexual relationship where the man is cooler than the woman. Does anyone else here have this problem? what do?

You fix them

You dated someone cool, now you have standards. What's your point?

your ex turn you gay, try men maybe

>>18483076 (OP)
so someone can fix you but you're above fixing someone else? that's stupid

>>18483076 (OP)
relatable

>>18483076 (OP)
you failed the shit test and let her turn you gay and then she dumped you. I guess you can try to explain to girls that you have a medical condition that makes you feel uncontrollable rage when you are around plastic and if they want to be with you they have to throw away all their clothes, sheets and furniture that contain plastic and buy new ones that are made of 100% organic materials. I am sure she would understand.

Lmao this. Even as someone with very specific taste I can't imagine even thinking about this when pussy is on the line.

The fixing happens after the break up, there's no winning there.
