what was your experience OP? i never found a bf off /soc/ (but certainly tried) but did end up making a bunch of platonic friends. i ghosted them all eventually, but people were pretty respectful, nice, no dick pics or cp or anything etc.

I do not understand the people that even go on /soc/ and try to meet others here. It literally feels like you're walking straight into danger.

Either they are more hopeful about human nature than we are or their standards are really low.

Most of the guys I've talked to on /soc/ have been pretty decent. The closest thing to a "horror story" I've experienced was this guy I was really starting to like freaked out and accused me of being a catfish, but even then he very quickly apologized and we went our separate ways.

I never used /soc/ because I am ugly, but I used to talk to men off /r9k/ when I was younger because I was desperate and thought my best chance at getting a boyfriend would be an ugly loser like me, right? Wrong. Here’s a general picture of how that went: one guy started telling me stereotypes about my ethnicity within 15 minutes, another guy called me his ‘waifu for laifu’ after talking to me for a few weeks then tried to hack my email, one was incredibly paranoid and kept accusing me of not being a real woman and saying I was lying to him, one was a full blown woman-hater who supported rape and violence against women, one had bad OCD and was unable to do anything but commiserate, and a few of them ghosted me with no explanation. I eventually gave up and moved on from trying to meet men on imageboards. Luckily I met my bf last year. He’s a mentally healthy attractive and kind normie with a good career and he’s my age, the exact type of guy I used to avoid because of my insecurities in the past. I’m still insecure and feel like I don’t deserve him, but I try not to self-sabotage and just enjoy how much better life has gotten and just do the best I can. Love is really worth it if you find the right guy. I wouldn’t advise any woman to look on imageboards however.

Really interested in story OP!
I had a LDR with a guy I met on /soc/ when I was 17. We never met up in person (lmao) and he was horrible.

>>262279
Yes and i am not sharing

>>262704
God i meant to use it before i moved to college and guess what im still using it once in a while

>>262279
Wasted a couple years of my life in a ldr and never met him! Constantly kept bringing it up in the last few months or so and he always dodged it. I've met other guys off soc and they're mostly just dorky/harmless if you have a good filter and keep the ball in your court when meeting up.

I've never even attempted to meet up with people from the internet or to form an online "relationship" (if you could even call it that). Not only is it super risky, but it's basically guaranteed to end poorly. How many successful relationships start out from online boards and forums? probably less than one in a million.
Especially on /soc/ of all places, which is one of the worst 4chan boards you could possibly use to meet people. I genuinely don't understand why you would try in the first place.

This is honestly so reassuring to hear, I'm happy you got your happy ending!

Oh god, this hits too close to home. I've unfortunately fallen for this many times and I'm still trying to get out of that cycle when it happens (partially why I want to make a committed migration to a more female populated image board).

what generals do you even check on /soc/ to find decent human beings? there's so much porn when I go there I just click off instantly…

>>270572
There’s a SFW general last I checked. You still have to be selective with who you add, and if they’re not degenerate they’re still probably boring

met an r9k guy who was pretty chill; awkward, insecure nerd who had a cute face and voice. went to shit tho bc he was also schizoid bpd type (like me) and kept showing his dick on cam. hope he doesnt see this bc i think he lurks < 33

/soc/ is completely worthless now because it's filled with both normies and horrible degenerates, worse than the normal kind. It used to be better but past few years it's just gotten so bad that i've stopped trying entirely.

i've had a couple of casual friends that i naturally filtered through as well as one good friend I'm still in contact with, ngl i've mostly had negative experiences from /soc/ as the women i've tried to befriend were just incredibly aloof and disinterested whilst the males ranged from creepy and clingy to outright psychotic and would threaten to an hero themselves if I didn't respond to them

oh god please no. no no no soc is the worst. i fucked three 30+ year old men from there at 15. worst part is that only one of them wasnt ugly as hell.

omg nona be posting my OTP in the wild kyaa

They're having some fun out there crying about Duolicious

I do. it was actually a good experience up until yesterday. about 6ish years ago, back before /soc/ was totally overtaken by coomer troon garbage, there used to be comfy chat threads of various sorts. there was a recognizable regular poster in one of those threads that I enjoyed talking to so I eventually added him on discord. after a few years of being online friends with him I coincidentally moved near him. we met up irl a few times, and started dating shortly after. we've been dating for over 3 years now and moved in with each other, started our careers together, plus we were planning on getting married. last night I caught him cheating on me with some mentally ill polish girl he added from eating disorder twitter. he was sexting her and being all flirty and cutesy with her on discord. I don't blame her at all - he never told her he has a gf, he was manipulating her and using her to get himself off and boost his self-esteem. he also kept lying to me/changing up the story after I confronted him about it. worst part is I am stuck living with him until our lease is up at the beginning of next year. I thought I had found my soulmate… do not trust any scrote you meet from 4chan. they are all extremely fucked up and a lot of them mask well but they will eventually let it slip to show their true evil selves.

>Duolicious
Is it any good?

>>271135
dumping ground for lonely, mentally fucked scrotes and teenage larpers. if its anything like /soc/ tho, its the exact kinda environment youd expect. but its funny as fuck to read through.

>>271134

idk I think men on 4 chan are just inherently fucked up and incapable of love

This was ages ago. He was on 4chan but I didn’t meet him on /soc/. I drove like 8 hours and ran away from my parents house to go elope with this guy and be his housewife, but I got there and his apartment was full of guns and Nazi trinkets. I slept on his couch and left the next morning to go home. He was a dick about it.

>>271177
Nona no…. You met someone from /pol/?????

>>271178
imagine having an r9k bae

I met him on /x/ I think.

>>271134
go back to r/StoryTimeWithReddit

I never talked to a moid once in my life besides them talking first to tell me >kys

Why y'all retards talk to men

Not quite /soc/, but my good (normie) friend broke up with her bf of like 3 years (they've broken up and gotten back together before) a few months ago, and she seems to have been spiralling about no longer having a 'boo' to dote over. She's been swinging from one guy to another on a local dating app and meeting a bunch of them one after another while still saying she wants a relationship, not just one nights. Literal, to put it impolitely, cock carousel.

I don't get it (tfw ace), is it really that pressing to have a moid in your life? She seems really disturbed by not having one

>>271524
Some people just don't know how to be alone with themselves.

Are you the polish girl
