Why New Year's Resolutions Don't Work
New Year's resolutions are a time-honoured tradition, offering a fresh start and the promise of positive change as we usher in a new year. Despite the optimism and determination that often accompany these resolutions, many people find that their resolutions fizzle out within a few weeks or months. Understanding why New Year's resolutions frequently fail requires a closer look at the psychology behind goal-setting and the common pitfalls people encounter.

    I know that some people get the holiday blues starting in November and they tend to pass right after Christmas or New Year's, however, I am kind of the opposite, in that my holiday blues don't really start until after Christmas​ but don't kick in fully until late January, because my birthday is then. In some ways, I'm kind of grateful for it, because it helps me soften the blow of the holiday season passing until the next year. I think missing those who have passed from this world, along with knowing that many people will be going back to their "usual" selves, and that the general sense of kindness and goodwill to one's fellow man fades away so quickly are what cause my holiday blues.

    Nah. This is Dr. Spock style coddling and reenforcing problematic behavior. "Lets talk about it" will never sink in. A little tough love and telling them to stop feeling sorry for themselves is the correct course. A little bit of emotional jolting causes a chemical reaction in the brain that actually causes someone to learn.

    One of the biggest reasons I think that male loneliness is getting worse by the year, it's because of those who try to reach out and touch someone, (figure of speech), get heavily criticized, for even making an attempt to try to do such thing! The worst part is is that some of those people may, be diagnosed with autism! That makes it even worse, for men, to reach out, for help! If people would just take the time, to just listen and understand where a person is coming from without judgment, and offer them help without condemning them, this world would be a better place... And I fear that, will never happen! 🫤

    "Your body my choice", Trumpizm and the red pill mentality is the main reason for their loneliness. They are doing this to themselves. They do not know how to relate to people (regardles of gender) without the help of women and women no longer feel like helping because of the blatant sexism they face when interacting with modern men. Men will either evolve or self-distruct while women will keep thriving without them. As we can see statistics leave no doubt about who needs whom.

    In a study where women were asked who their best friend was, most said another female friend. When men were asked, most said their romantic partner. The problem here for men is if they lose their relationship or just don't have one then they are going to be at a social disadvantage to most women. Also women hug each other all the time, they hug each others to say hello, goodbye, when they're happy or sad etc, they even hug each other's kids, but they don't hug male friends or colleagues for obvious reasons, and men in most cases can't hug female friends or colleagues kids for the same reasons. If men who aren't in a relationship want a hug their options are a tinder hookup which may never happen or hiring an escort. Women often wonder why men seem so keen to want to be in a relationship, it's because there's no physical human contact outside of one for most guys except those in the top few percent on dating apps who don't really care about intimacy anyway and just want to smash.

Any who can't successfully navigate dating apps or have the looks to get them into the top 10% appear great and will probably tell you we're great as it's not in well adjusted men's nature to complain about their emotional issues to women, but inside we're really craving a genuine intimate connection which we can't just go out and get like picking up groceries or fixing our car. I have a great group of female friends, but they are friends, we hang out and talk, but they hug each other, not me as i'm a guy. Since i have no interest in hookups i have to find an actual relationship to get any kind of physical touch. And since i'm not pushy, coercive, over confident or abusive there can be significant periods of time before meeting the right person, especially living in a small town with average looks. But i do appear that i'm doing well because showing that i have problems or vulnerabilities is not something women want to see from the men in their lives.
