We all know looking better will obviously lead to better interactions with women, better work and better everything overall.

But I’m curious as to what everyone thinks about it affecting male friendships?

I used to believe that it’ll be a positive correlation as well just like it is with women but I can’t help but notice that my friends treat me worse now that I have “ascended” as opposed to when they first met me but a year and a half ago.

A year and a half ago I was a total gymcel, I had bulked up to 250 pounds and my physique whilst carrying a lot of fat still looked pretty good simply because I did put on muscle during the bulk and my fat distribution genetics were good.

Now that I’m lean(eR) again, and obviously my face being a lot more defined, I can’t help but notice that they treat me different. No more invites to the clubs. No more talking randomly. Nothing at all. It’s like something changed and I can’t even point out what it is.

This whole thing is true for most people I meet in CS in general, they always have this passive aggressive aura to them when they’re around me, as if I’m actively hurting them when I try my best to be nice and normal to everyone regardless of who they are.

Mainly height and being masculine and low inhib matters
Nt tall ogres will get more male respect than short preetyboy chadlite

I don't think it affects much. Men don't give a shit really unless you're extremely good looking and it causes resentment.

Getting friends is easy as a man. Only thing that may be a problem is if you are neurodivergent

I’ll say my dimorphism is one of my stronger suits and I’m pretty tall too, still struggle with male friendships maybe because I’m brown jfl

I also won’t say I’m neurodivergent

Has any male friend ever complimented you for your looks ?

I have decent friends now but they’re all moggers, I have noticed the more a guy mogs the better I feel around them and I feel as if it’s easier to connect in general.

I was just talking mainly about past friends in OP, how they changed for no apparent reason whatsoever.
 
It’s probably more brutal given I’m one of the “worst” phenotypes you can be.

Fuck man I just want to be a normal ahh n*gga, I just wanna go out to the club, get drunk with the boys and play video games. Why is this shit so complicated.

It’s crazy the last time I felt as if I had real friends was all the way back in middle school (surprisingly when looks didn’t matter at all)

Could be many other things though, you never know but friends are overrated anyways

Friends are overrated sounds like cope no offence, there isn’t much to life besides community and relationships both platonic and romantic.

I have a very unconventional philosophy on the world so it really doesn’t matter to me. I guess disadvantages to being 2e or sum

Location also plays a huge role in how easy it is to make friends. Some areas people are more open and easier to get along with and in other areas people tend to be colder and far less open. Being neurodivergent is a true curse and pretty much makes it impossible to even make friends let alone get a gf

That’s fair man, I suppose what I said was wrong. Relationships aren’t the most important, being content and at peace with yourself is.

If you’re able to find that peace without caring about friends then that’s awesome honestly and lowkey I’m a bit jealous because for me a big part of my zest for life comes from other people. I would literally kms if I had no one to talk to.

I wanna kms when I do talk to people, everyone feels so out of touch and displaced from their own existence. It’s literal automatons walking around aimlessly, the only time I have fun with ppl is when I’m out raving doing coke and drinking

i think they do matter a lot. a lot of friendships nowadayd is just a bunch of people shitting on each other and faking friendship. in our era isa basically impossible to find real friends either way.

looking good makes this better because at least you are more respected and less wlaked on

Men can glaze appearances nearly as much as women I find, plus ugly guys tend to be jesters and attractive guys tend to be nonchalant
