Not a complex thought, but I realized how behind I am compared to my peers in terms of life experience, socializing, and relationships with women. If you aren’t the guy who is popular with women or the guy who has a lot of friends starting from middle school or high school, you don’t have the social experience to properly navigate social situations, so that you can have enough social proof and confidence to succeed with women. If you were an abused dog in high school, women can smell that from a mile away.
It’s especially worse for a lot of the guys in the forum (including myself), who are neurodivergent, introverted, or have a lot of mental problems. It’s like diving into the treacherous ocean without any swimming experience or surfing experience (in this case, I'm talking about gains in social intelligence) that neurotypical attractive guys gained with years of failed relationships, friendships, etc.
