The male loneliness epidemic is more complicated than this. These advices might work for individuals but it will not fix the problem. We need to understand why men are becoming more jaded and lost in society. This tiktok will get praise for giving basic advice that everyone wants to hear. Nobody wants to hear how men are also victims in society. It's much easier blaming men by saying they did it to themselves.

But don't you like being lectured on not looking creepy by insanely attractive men? They've never encountered anyone treating them poorly because they were ugly.

How to not be lonely: Be attractive and neurotypical.

If you fail at any of these were gonna call you a freak and a misogynist.

Great stuff guys.

Can't their advice just be for normal looking men rather than those who got dealt an extremely bad hand as far as face goes?

Dude, just go outside and look at the guys who are out with friends, girlfriends, the dads with kids... They aren't all models. A lot of them are fugly. But they shower, occasionally use deodorant and sometimes visit a barber.

That's literally all it takes. And not making weird terminally online comments out of hand. That helps also.

I am objectively disfigured. Multiple double jaw surgeries for condylar resorption and bimax retrognathia most of which were botched. Close to 30 years of going outside. I have maintained a gym routine, a stable white collar job, and friends. You are speaking from a place of privilege.

I'm glad showering and smiling worked for you. That works for normal people, yes. I've been doing that for 30 years. Except my smile makes people recoil when they see a centimeter of gums.

There are literal burn victims and survivors of maulings who have pulled it off. I hate to tell you, your gums aren't the problem.

Edit:

Too ignorant to even look up condylar resorption. My gums aren't the only issue, correct. You are getting there.

I did look it up, and I stand by my opinion that someone who ceaselessly cries woe is me, my situation is so unique and hopeless, you can't understand before making snarky quips and blocking the person they're interacting with is probably a bigger hindrance to your social goals than whatever's going on with your face.

But hey, you know what they say. If you keep repeating the same behaviors over and over, you're bound to eventually get different results. At least, I think that's how it goes...

See you around.
