       @Rasp I do get the sentiment and I've had it before, however the counter point forever and always will be the same as playing the lottery. Winning might be unlikely but you still can't win if you don't play.

       @Rasp that's fair. My only caveat to that is not to be ableist to yourself and giving yourself a standard that no one else uses. Everyone is a little broken and we all deserve love. Ijs

       @ashten @lonerfanatic Because I want someone who actually wants to be with me for me. Not some false version of me they built up in their heads.

       @ashten @lonerfanatic I could never live up to the person they think I am and I couldn't take that.

       @ashten @lonerfanatic I cant imagine constantly feeling like a fraud being a disappointment never being enough.I need to be so much more. So much better and I don't think it will ever be enough.

       @ashten @lonerfanatic I'm getting those ideas from being damn certain I am not good enough.

       @ashten @lonerfanaticThese are all things I desperately want for myself but due to my disability have been impossible to work on.I don't like the thing I am now. I hate my body I hate my constant anxiety attacks and always being overwhelmed. I hate everything about myself.

       @ashten @lonerfanatic I don't want to be loved like this... as this. I want to be loved as me not whatever this is.

       @Rasp @ashten @lonerfanatic I think the biggest barrier for dating would probably be you not feeling like you’re good enough, not that you actually aren’t enough. There are probably plenty of people who would think that you’re more than enough for them, but you don’t think that you’re enough for your own goals or standards, it seems (please correct me if I’m wrong here).I don’t think that completely shutting the door on the potential for a new relationship is ever truly a good idea, since you never know who might come along, but I would suspect the best path forward would be to continue working on yourself and only dating someone if they’re the type of person that will/can help you become the person that you want to be.

       @Rasp I know that feeling too well, if you do I wish you the best of luck. Don't be to hard on yourself either way.
