@Owl @PraxisOfEvil @kc-poast @Griffith @EllisDee Right now? Motivation. Speaking personally, I put a considerable amount of energy into keeping myself "attractive" and it hasn't gotten me anywhere. Sure I get looks now, but they're all from women I can't love because they're not trying to be attractive. It takes two to tango, and when I'm on the dance floor solo after learning the moves, I start to wonder why I even bother. I'd have a lot more motivation to become the best version of myself if I actually had payoff for what I've accomplished thus far, but as it stands a weekend brownie is worth more than the diminishing returns of trying to become even more attractive in a world of fundamentally unattractive people.
The juice isn't worth the squeeze.
