I'm skeptical that they'll help a ton but that's the bad mental health speaking.\r\n\r\nLast weekend I wrote a goodbye letter to a girl that I fell badly in love with last year. It was a \"too good to be true\" best-friendship but she wasn't interested in a relationship and has very different life goals. My head won't stop thinking that I'll never deserve anyone like her. Anyway, writing that was hard and it bummed me out for a few days. I'm good now, though!\r\n\r\nNow I'm in the process of re-writing online dating profiles, hoping that it casts the type of net I need to meet someone. I read a book called \"[Data, A Love Story: How I Gamed Online Dating to Meet My Match](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0525953809/ref=x_gr_w_bb?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;tag=x_gr_w_bb-20\u0026amp;linkCode=as2\u0026amp;camp=1789\u0026amp;creative=9325\u0026amp;creativeASIN=0525953809\u0026amp;SubscriptionId=1MGPYB6YW3HWK55XCGG2)\" and it's given me a lot to think about, regarding what I'm looking for. The advice goes against what I'd prefer to do (which is to write a lot and be really picky) but maybe it'll help, although better pictures would surely be clutch. It's frustrating to do this stuff when one of my best friends can get any guy she's interested in with truly minimal effort. I know I shouldn't compare myself but it's hard not to.\r\n\r\nLast thing, I subscribed to the Headspace app. I intend to use it once a day this week and try to get back into the habit of meditation.","subreddit_name":"malementalhealth","author":"0ldFashioned"}]}
