  • Depends on the bear. Black bears are cowards and you can generally just make noise or act big to scare them. Brown or grizzlies you’ll want to play dead and pray then don’t try to eat you. Polar bears, good luck, better have one of those boxes really close by.

    The rule on black bears can go out the window if they are worried about their young, super hungry, or young and inexperienced with humans.

    Someone with better knowledge can correct me but that’s what I was taught when I was a kid.

    I’m not trying to discount any of your feelings or experiences, I went through this same thing for years until I met my current (and first) gf; for context I was 28 when we started going out.

    I hated hearing it when I was in your situation but it’s always been true for me, work on yourself and keep yourself open and things will eventually happen. I gave up trying to find a girlfriend when I was 27 after years of striking out irl and on dating apps and decided to focus on myself. I was starting a graduate program and got a cool public art opportunity through my city so I just put all my energy into that which helped me focus less on tinder and my lack of sex (kinda) . One day this girl I worked with dumped her loser boyfriend and after several failed attempts to ask her out (I’m bad at putting things down, she’s bad at picking things up) i finally had a date. Four years later and she’s begging me for a ring.

    Life is tough and even harder when you don’t have someone to experience it with. Again, I don’t know your situation and I don’t want to just be another asshole saying things will get better cause I fucking hate those people when I was sad and lonely, but I genuinely do believe good things come to those who wait. Keep yourself open to new experiences and listen to your gut if it’s telling you to take a chance.

    Or tell me to stfu, that’s cool too I get it and won’t be upset.
