Trump’s election stole my desire to look for a partner
Washington Post ^ | December 5, 2016 | Stephanie Land

Posted on 12/06/2016 3:45:59 AM PST by C19fan

In August, I went on six dates in one week. I had decided that I was ready to look for a partner. Enough of this dating unavailable men a half-decade younger than me. They’d never seriously consider a relationship with me, my two children and our needy dog. No. I wanted to find an equal. A man who wouldn’t feel the need to step in and rescue me. I didn’t need rescuing. But I knew deep down that was only partially true. I often felt the sort of loneliness that settled in my stomach, starting from a chaotic afternoon with my children, lasting well into the night when I pulled covers tight around my chin.

Looks like she is doing men a favor by dropping out of the meet market because of Trump. What a pathetic snowflake. She claim she does not need "rescuing" but the snowflake melts because Trump won the election. I think she is projecting wanting to "rescue" a man because I never heard a man wanting to "rescue" a woman.

Maybe this libtard can find a nice lesbian relationship to help her get through the “rough times” ahead of a Trump presidency. After all, must be gender neutral if you believe all the LGBTFAG idealogy.

Holy crap.

Now, I have been finding these “I stayed in bed all day with a migrane because the first woman president wasn’t elected” articles hilarious, but now I am starting to get creeped out by them.

What is with these people? They all sound mentally ill.

When Obama took office, I don’t remember these kinds of articles about conservatives locking all their doors, going into seclusion, laying down all day in a darkened room with migraine headaches.

I considered the possibility that maybe that was happening with conservatives, and the media wasn’t at all interested in spreading it around, but I discounted that. It simply wasn’t happening.

Stephanie will never find an “equal” as long as she expects others to be accepting of her double standards.

It reads like a parody except that apparently it’s real.

All of this is even more proof that liberalism is a mental disorder.

The real reason I stopped looking:

I wasn't getting any looks.
