**mookieblaylock** , like everybody else said, the problem isn’t that you are not getting laid, it’s that you feel worthless. I think you’ve said you’re in therapy, and you should continue with that. I’m sure you need to communicate but I doubt posting about it here is going to help you. In any case please keep in mind something you said in your last thread: > [@Today I saw a loser that made me so mad](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/today-i-saw-a-loser-that-made-me-so-mad/520921/174): > > Depression distorts your perception of yourself and that can result in stupid actions such as what I did, but I cannot use that as a reason to dodge responsibility for my actions. It was a mistake, and we all make them. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/not-getting-laid-can-really-make-you-stop-caring-about-life/534191)._
