I can’t tell you how many people tell me this, it is just easier and better on so many levels

So I spent the better part of my life “leveling up”. I have a Master’s from a prestigious university. I had (I quit a year ago to pursue being a novelist, more on that) that coveted six figure job. I hit the gym, at least until age started rearing its ugly head and now a shoulder injury is keeping me from weight lifting.

Know what that got me? Nothing. It doesn’t matter how much you level up if your character model has a smaller hitbox.

Yup, since I only have two of the coveted four 6s, I don’t count. The remaining two, height and downstairs (not that anyone has ever seen it since I’m always filtered out with the other), are solidly median.

I basically only ever get dates when it’s set up via matchmaking services that don’t have height as part of the profile. It’s disheartening when all 5’8″ of me introduces myself when we first meet and I get that visible disappointment look. They always physically deflate when they see me and act like the night is a massive imposition.

So, I decided maybe these men looking overseas are onto something. There are plenty of places in the world where people aren’t caught up in frivolity and know what’s important. I just want someone who is loyal, pleasant to be around and hasn’t had more than my sexual partners +1 (basically, no more than 1). I’m not looking for a cook or a maid, I can do all that stuff myself, nor do I want some slave. Good luck finding someone like that in the US. Women here have the mileage of an old Soviet Lada and want to charge you Lambo prices.

So I’ll get my remote income stream started, take my savings and F-off somewhere else where I can be appreciated. Then never come back since I don’t want the Western brand of feminism destroying it.
