I think that getting a girlfriend for me is useless
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Look, you're confusing "hard" with "useless." Every meaningful thing in life requires effort—that's not a reason to bail on it. What specifically makes you think connection is worthless?
User
Cause I don't need it
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
That's isolation dressed up as independence. Humans aren't wired to be alone—loneliness literally kills faster than smoking. You don't "need" a lot of things until you're missing them. What are you actually afraid of here?
User
I'm not afraid of anything
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Then you're just choosing to miss out. People who say they need nothing are usually protecting themselves from disappointment. So what happened that made you decide connection wasn't worth the risk?
