This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Anon is depressed and self-sabotaged because he doesn't think he's worthy of love. Therapists should really advertise in 4chan.

That or he didn't love her, he didn't say anything about love or emotional attachment or anything, just that she was Asian and fucked him.

Anon wasn't after a relationship, he was after a sex toy, and fundamentally misunderstanding what a relationship is and being in one that was entirely loveless was draining on him. He just didn't realise why.

You make a valid point but I'd argue that someone who can't differentiate a want for sex from a want for a relationship still urgently needs a therapist.

but this time I don't care

I mean, maybe he's just happy on his own for now? It's ok to have moments of doubt here and there (re: "staring at my PC" , "did it do it right") but just because they broke up with their gf and went back to their self improvement routine doesn't automatically mean self sabotage and all that.

I'd agree if his "self-improvement routine" wasn't just hitting the gym.
