While comparing oneself to others is usually useless at best and counterproductive at worst, doing so is an inevitable part of the mating process. The market in the city and most highly populated towns is oversaturated, so even if the incel is able to stand his own ground by being a healthy, loyal young man, there are nerds who rely on modernity to bolster themselves up the tier list. People, to be fair perhaps unintentionally, crowd around anime, emo aesthetic, Disney, etc. to make and maintain personal connections. Effectively, he’s cornered by alpha chads and coked-up beta males out of a niche. And while it’s easy for the plain as white bread incel to conclude with some black pill statement like, “There is not someone for everyone. Love is not guaranteed,” he needs to interject that this is by no means a concession. His odds of finding someone whose time he is worthy of and vice versa is not zero, so his job is to stay the course and not succumb to shortcuts of short-term happiness - to continue to polish the rough edges of his personality and redirect negative trains of thought. There is no end in sight to this long, unglamorous road, but the payoff is immense, even if he fails.
