    I feel the same as she does at times...fearing dying alone; however I'm not gonna sit here and act like I don't see struggled face'd unattractive people with partners and families ALL THE TIME. A part of me felt like she was fishing for compliments.

    When we make statements like that, we are pretty much speaking our fate into existence. When i look at myself and ask why im single, its my fault. And i think some folks will come to understand, with some self reflecting, that your confidence, attitude about yourself, and how you think, behave and engage has more to do with our relationship status than what we think. Im not an unattractive guy, successful, and by most measures, Ima good catch. Why am i single? Well, i learned how to spit game late in life (lol), but i also had to work through some hangups and sexuality stuff, chikdhood shit, etc. Subconsciously, i wasnt allowing myself to be open to not being single, even tho deep down, i dont wanna be single. That make sense?

    What am i saying? Physical beauty is one thing, but if u dont make urself psychologically or emotionally available because of deeply rooted confidence and self esteem issues, you will die alone. I really believe that there is someone for everyone.

    I slightly disagree...or may be just have a caveat.

    There is a reality based within our social media, dating app society that allows us to focus on the hunt and the"next one" and not actually focusing on a single person because we have a library of folks at our finger tips.

    Dating is the new relationship.

    Considering how savage people can be on social media I wouldn't express that kinda feeling on any social platform. You're just asking for trouble, especially if your a well known person. Trolls will come out of the woodwork to feast on your misery. Don't believe me? Just ask this guy. 394.jpeg

    Can't believe I disagree with Cyrus Brooks.

    Tyrese is a Black man....Leslie Jones is a Black Feminist woman. She has received an out pouring of loving words and encouragement from Black and White females and queer peoples (Celebrities and non-celebrities) from across the globe.

    I don't disagree with the fact that social media has made dating more complicated, but of course we know not everyone is on social media and everyone on there isn't necessarily moving on to the "next one." The more "undesired" folks don't have that luxury. lol. And you don't necessarily need social media to be moving on to the "next one." We know dudes have been dogs for a long time and can put some social media hoes to shame. What social media has done is further isolate folks into a virtual reality that fuels unrealistic expectations, low self-esteem and narcissism. Some folks forget that there's a real world that exists they have yet to explore.

    All I'm saying is, in most cases, the burden of blame/fault for something not happening goes to the person who wants something to happen. A person is single because they are relying on one way to meet people, have too high expectations, aren't literally in a position to meet people, whether geographically or professionally, and a host of other reasons--many of which can be addressed so that a person will increase their chances of not being single. I think there's someone for everyone who wants one and if someone is having a hard time, maybe they should change their perception and perhaps their expectations. The fine ass fit dude who been waiting on that fine ass fit girl or dude, is eventually gon be that fine ass old dude who still waiting on the same thing, not realizing that it's been 10-15 years since he been in his prime. Lol.

    Let's call a thing a thing. Leslie isn't the... Softest... looking heterosexual female. So I'm sure some of her perceived dying alone issue comes from the way people see her physically. She's got a very broad shape and her short blunt hair isn't going to be bringing them in in droves.

    Yes. I said it.

    I'm not saying she's ugly but she could use some softening up. Taking some of the shine off her face, not necessarily being covered in gloop. Short hair is fine but if she did a Judge Lynn Toler shape it would do wonders for her. Ladies can have short hair and look good. No weave needed.

    There's a man or several out there for her but not everyone is going to be able to deal with her personality or job but Wendy Williams, Oprah, and even Omarossa can catch a peen. She'll be fine.

    Ok you have a point. Women blubbering about their feelings illicits more sympathy than men. I guess I should've added that as a caveat.

    I would've looked sideways at anybody acting like Tyrese did - nothing wrong with showing emotion in public but he was trying it

    She states, "I want everyone to know I post my real feelings because im a REAL person".

    I dont care how much of a "real" person I am, I would NEVER utter those words. It baffles me how people still dont understand or believe in the power of the tongue. Hows does it benefit anyone to profess negative statements about their self or their life? Of course as humans we have our down days, but giving it power on a social media platform just seems counter productive to me.

    See I wasn't gonna go there, but yeah she is unattractive. Considering how Leslie Jones got roasted on Twitter when the Ghostbusters reboot came out I would think she'd know better than to open herself up to the same kind of attack. I guess some people never learn.

    The biggest downfall of social media and the internet age is that it repeatedly temps us into believing that the online personas we create are real and that the validation that clicks and like gets us is real. It is not real. Algothriums establish our online world.

    With that being said, I see ugly people finding one another every day. I see pretty people with ugly people every day. We all die alone in the end when you really think about it. With that being said, maybe Leslie needs to expand her pool of potential suitors.

    I just have to call bullshit on that my brother.

    The way someone presents themselves online, is how they want to be perceived in real life.

    Which is why you have people doing all sorts of hobbies on youtube blogs, hoping to be scouted and make a living doing that.

    So I'm an alien and not real?

    The internet is very much real. At least for fucking me it is. I wouldn't say shit I wouldn't' say online, that I fucking wouldn't say on the street to someone.

    Sorry.

    That's the fucking problem. People don't analyze people or things or events or situations. They are just quick to assume it's one thing. Not getting the full picture.

    I was robbed at gunpoint and all my shit was taken, recently one night, and there were a couple other guys around my age that saw the whole fucking thing, and did nothing to help me.

    So sorry.

    I didn't mean to offend or suggest that anyone is an alien. I was saying that IN GENERAL, people's online personas and profiles showcase their best, whether it is a dating app or a couple doing YouTube Blogs all of which is most definitely manipulated by social media algorithms.

    I think you are making my point, "People don't analyze people or things or events or situations. They are just quick to assume it's one thing. Not getting the full picture." That is exactly what I am suggesting. We don't get the full picture solely being online. Human beings are complex and sometimes we are tricked into believing in the hype of social media. See Gayleberties for examples.
