This is literally why I don't have any female friends (besides coworkers). I'm not sure if this is just who I attract or if many women are simply this much of a handful. Either way, I struggle to provide validation to women who, regardless of their beauty and success, still don't seem to have underlying self worth.

It may be the ongoing epidemic for women, wherein self worth must come from external sources, but I don't have the energy. I hope that's not cold or heartless.
