Men - Am I A Red Flag?

It can be lonely when you you don’t have friends and have no one to talk to shoot such embarrassing topics. It’s must easier to talk to strangers on the Internet over it. It’s not some weird fetish. This is stuff I’ve been dealing with since I was 17 and I’m 31 now. I just wanted some advice and encouragement.

I never deleted the threads or asked them to be. Most people noticed I posted more than once and I think reported it. I will will posting here and use something like Reddit. I didn’t know there was a limit to how many times you can post since I have seen other threads on here posted over and over again asking the same questions. Thank you for the people who were kind and helpful. Shame on you to the people who were rude. You didn’t have to read my thread.

Why have you been posting this same story on here for years and still have no friends?

OP, just keep it to the same thread so that people understand context. You keep starting new ones.

Update a prior thread with "I'm OP, and I need to talk about this again. I'm still having trouble, and ..."

That preempts a lot of the problem and makes it seem less about getting attention for the new thread and more about the actual problem. And when people can see it is an old thread and an ongoing issue, it's easier to avoid clicking. Everyone can already see what advice has been given and didn't help.

Good luck.

Your situation isnt a red flag, but your personality is
