The reason why I’m asking this question is because alot of my friends are saying that I’m a loser and weirdo because I’m 26 years old and I have never been on a date with anyone.

I don’t want to go on dates with anyone or go meet anyone parents or even have anyone live with me in my 1 bedroom condo.

All I want to do in life is play video games and watch anime all day and jerk off to my anime waifus everyday in my 1 bedroom condo because they’re hot as fuck.

But what do you guys think am I a loser for not wanting to go on a date with anyone ever or no?

    Doing better than me trying to be in relationships but still having less sex than my ace friend because she married someone who isnt ace and feels confortable obliging them I guess.

    All sexual and romantic orientations are equally valid. There’s no reason why fulfillment should depend on someone else.

    You do you, but maybe be open to new experiences. There’s no reason you can’t share your passions with another person who may have overlapping interests.

    Your life your choices, if you’re fulfilled by video games, anime and jerking it to waifus, you do you.

    I don’t know about loser but I do think you’re setting yourself for an unpleasant wake-up at some point.

    Spend your youth jerking it, playing video games and never going through the learnings, experiences, joys and heartbreaks of relationships, if you realize in a dozen years that there is a gaping partner/meaning/joy void in your life, it’ll be much harder to fix. Believe me, dating does not get easier in middle age. Especially if you don’t want kids.

    It’s sort of like any other drug, easy and appealing alternative to life’s difficulties in the moment but consistent use tends to lead to serious problems down the road.

    That being said, if you’re 26 and haven’t been on a date, I imagine there are bigger issues than a preference for video games and waifus. I suspect the women with whom you have a chance aren’t attractive enough for you so it leads to this spiral. And frankly, lowering your standards sucks and lifting yourself up to meet others’ standards is a lot of work.

    Don’t really have an answer but those are my middle aged thoughts. I’m old, balding, don’t want kids and haven’t seriously dated for a couple of years as I’m adjusting to this new reality. But goddamn I am happy I spent my late 20s sleeping with a lot of fun folks and in a few meaningful relationships. I grew every time I fell in love, cherish some of the crazy times and know I’m a better person for it all. Those experiences and memories are big motivators for getting into better shape, working on myself etc so that when I’m ready, I can aim for another of those awesome fun relationships.

    If you’re happy then you’re happy. No one else can tell you what you want. If you’re unhappy with your situation find a therapist to help you work through it but you’re not a loser for wanting to be on your own. Not at all.

    Dude, I am by choice where you are now. BUT I was married twice with 12 years in between 1st divorce and second marriage. Second marriage lasted like 2 years LOL. So it is awesome that you know what you want at your age. Let no one shame you for being yourself.

    I guess the answer depends on why you don’t want to date. Asexuality exists but are you ace or do you have other reasons for abstaining?

      My reason for not wanting to date anyone is simply because all I want to do is just play video games and watch anime all day in my 1 bedroom condo. I don’t want to go on dates with anyone because I really love being by myself and not having any responsibilities in life.

        I mean that’s fine. But I’d encourage monitoring this feeling. We change as we get older and have different experiences in life. Sometimes we want different things than we did. Ace folks are different than folks with preferences against dating but still, leave room for change if you can, would be my unsolicited advice

    Sounds to me like you might be aromatic. There’s nothing wrong with that. Personally, I’m asexual. I faced similar issues before I discovered my sexuality

      I look up Aromantic on the internet and I guess that explains why I have never had any desire to date anyone and have sex with anyone either. Because I’m only sexually attracted to my anime waifus. I really love my anime waifus because they’re so hot.

      If I met a woman that was into to anime and video games. I would ask for her discord username so that I can play video games with her and talk about anime with her on discord. But I would still never go on a date with her because I love being by myself and not having any responsibilities in life.

        Asking for her discord and playing games together IS a date homie, even virtually. Just not the classic traditional date in that sense. My wife and I have been together for 21 years and have a son together. We still watch anime and play video games. It’s like I’m on a date with her everyday. In my case, not virtually.

        It’s all about sharing experience together.

          I agree that me asking for her discord and playing video games with her online could be considered a date to alot of people.

          But my reason for asking her discord and playing video games with her online is just so I can have a new friend. I do not want to date her and have her move in with me. Because I like being myself and having no responsibilities in life.

            Fair. Counter point, my wife and I are each other’s best friends. We trust each other’s deepest secrets and we depend on each other. We just find it more convenient to communicate with each other’s friendship in person and in the same house.

            You can also have a similar, if not exact relationship online.
