The world is full of people yet we all feel lonely regardless
idk. Is this a phase or what, is there a cognitive science behind this struggle? What's the key to connect and form a genuine connection? Just curious

There's a lot of factors that play in to each person's loneliness. Some it's disability (like me), others it's lack of social skills or etiquette, others have lost loved ones, ect. As for a genuine connection, I'm not sure, it's only happened for me twice, I was open with my friend/companion, about a lot. And I genuinely listened when we talked. Weather it interested me or not. Just me, human. Be you. If the people around you dislike that, they're not it.

I think It's an amalgamation of things that play a part in people feeling lonely: Covid- the distancing took it's toll, even though we don't do it anymore. Economy- I think the cost of things makes people feel hopeless on being stable. Especially men who think and feel they need to provide. Dating apps- these have not done much to help average looking men. (Both men and women engaged in hypergamy for different reasons but now it's more so for the same reasons- Physical Attractiveness) On-line Gender Wars: From Sprinkle Sprinkle and Icks to "She's for the streets" and ballon popping content, I think we have let the extreme behavior and extreme stories (example: truecrime shows and tiktok trends) influence our perception and feelings on our partners and strangers we don't even know. I could go on, but I won't. I think I know of some some issues, but I acknowledge I only know what I've seen. It'll take men, women, and everyone between/around to have conversations, communication and comprehension on how to move forward.

It wasn’t as much genuine connection in earlier times as people choose to believe.. there were clear roles of men and women, and they both were dependent on each other, that’s it. In current times, that need has been replaced with people’s desire to live together, which is naturally way way weaker than need.

Yes,.kind of, to a certain extent science can see there's a chemical reaction to every emotion and the outside things that can cause that. I don't fully understand it myself

It’s like going to a buffet and still being hungry because you’re only eating the garnish. Sometimes you need to dig into the main course of meaningful connections to fill up!

If you're talking about the loneliness which directly comes right after you found yourself a unique creature apart from your mother and ultimately all other things around you, then I would say that may somehow be solved or at least more tolerable when the formula for explaining the universe would be found. So seems we have to wait for physics and cosmology to finalize their calculations! Or by gaining some sort of Intuitive understanding accidentally!

...I've been seeing this question posted a lot lately, so here's what you can do! If you're looking to get more matches and make genuine connections on B00, I suggest immersing yourself in the Boouniverse. Engage with others in a positive, helpful, or humorous manner.

Why Imposing Consequences for DMs is a Recipe for Disconnection
I recently came across a post from a guy and he mentioned that someone had entered his DMs without initiating a conversation and then he threatened consequences for not engaging with him. The post asked if he should show them the consequences. I responded, trying to help him understand that... read more

Alright Boo community what do you think? The fact that I was able to predict two years ago that someone who I had lost contact with would become a father and that the baby would be a boy a coincidence? Availability heuristic? Lucky chance? I have notes stamp to prove it 🥸

A general wondering
Is there really something called destiny? Are we all have someone that is destined to be with us? Or are we just bound by the obligation to find love and hope to find it ourselves? 😯🤔
