If you’re not happy, you’re not THE problem. But you HAVE a problem.
Some people here think that I am "actually a pretty bad person." Honorentheos thinks I am a threat. Does hono need therapy? Does Marcus need therapy for her obsession that everything is sexist? Marcus shows signs of anxiety, she gets very triggered and sees me as an enemy.

You’ll stop obsessing over this issue because your brain will learn that being turned down by women is not the existential threat it thinks it is today.
It'll be nice to teach my brain that. I would
much rather remain single for the rest of my life, especially if I could teach my brain to be happy and single, but that's not what the theory of human evolution predicts.
We evolved to have intimate partners, so the lack of an intimate partner can't be a good thing.
"The experts say a lack of sex can affect a person’s overall well-being."

I do not have good friends, so I can't replace a good friend with an intimate partner.
Rejection is alright, but what happens when people experience a lot of rejection for many years?

The fact that you mentioned getting even with women who turned you down by turning them down at some point is a huge clue that your brain is sabotaging you. Our brains spew out thoughts and emotions constantly - thousands of time every day. We teach our brains which of these thoughts and emotions are important by how we react to them. Clinging to thoughts tells the brain the thought is important. Actively resisting tells the brain the thought is important. This creates the opportunity for self reinforcing feedback loops that can lead to obsession with a thought or emotion.
True, I am a human being. Marcus quoted, "For starters, men must remember women are human beings with their own desires and goals." Why can't men be human beings too? Being too picky is a problem in society, that's the reason why there's a record number of single women in their 30s and 40s, and that's not a good thing according to the theory of human evolution.
So, I might have a problem,
but it doesn't mean there aren't any serious problems in society. The fact that Mexicans and Europeans are more approachable is a strong indication that there's a serious problem in the US.
