How do you find love and connection?
I discovered antinatalism in my late teens due to the feeling that there was something deeply wrong with life itself.
As I've gotten older, not only has my belief that not having children is the most loving thing a parent can do, but also my belief that life itself should never have existed.
Even though I'll never regret my decision towards not having children and will get a vasectomy in my 30s.
I am so lonely.
Besides a few internet people who get it, I have nobody irl.
Which leads to my question, how do I find others who get it?
I know people recommend dating apps, but it's been a terrible experience for me.
Not only due to getting low matches but also because people who are child-free on the app, choose it because of economic reasons, not due to pessimistic views towards life.
Most people have never heard of an and even if they did, they reject it due to existential questions that most are too weak to face.
I don't want to spend the rest of my life alone, but i also don't want to spend it with people that I have to mask my views towards existence from.
I am not meant to be alone, and yet I feel like I have no other choice.
I want friends. I want a significant other. I want a support system. I want to belong. I want my little village and tribe.
I feel like I'm doomed to spend my life alone and in isolation due to realizing the truth about existence.
Have any of you found friends, a support system, or a significant other while being an.
Is there any hope, or should I just accept that it's just the way it is?
