Why do people simp?

[Venom]

People should not idolize someone they don't know personally.

[Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...]

why do anything?

[Ray Rook]

Befriending a person you're attracted to isn't simping. The word is overused.

As far as people who truly are simping... it's probably a lack of confidence due to poor life decisions.

For the same reason you constantly spam the forums with your retarded YouTube videos.

People can idolize whoever they want. It's their money and their time.

I think porn causes brainrot the same way social media does when consumed excessively.

What if they do know the other person personally?

Simp is both a noun and a verb. The contemporary usage of it in noun form entails someone who is basically a willing & devoted follower or servant of another, who may or may not be their friend.
There's also an implication of unrequited love coming from the person labeled as the simp.

They are usually considered pathetic and to be wasting their life but different people find fulfillment in different things. If they're doing it because "eventually she'll recognize how much I care and see value in me and care for me too" then yeah... he's wasting his time, probably, and it's not healthy - but if he can accept that she's actually probably never going to choose him, and chooses to live this way with a genuine smile anyways, then I don't see the issue.
People have different values and interests.

For some people, it's because they want something from you, but not all of them.
Some people genuinely just like helping others and making them smile, and spending time with you. Depending on how devoted they are - yeah, they probably have a crush or something but if they can accept that they might not be with you and respect your boundaries, and seem to actually genuinely enjoy being there for you, then this isn't actually a bad thing, imo.

Some people like having power, and some people like supporting others - there's little to no explanation for why this is when it gets to the core of it - it's probably in their genes somewhere (whether someone desires power or genuinely prefers to be in the support or healer role) because your terminal goals are the things that you want... just because you want them :

Actually i would say you have to take a chance because how else are you meant to "know" someone.

[Adversary]

You've got a lot of young guys out there who are lonely and have been told by society writ large their entire lives that they are worthless and undeserving of anything because of their sex and in many cases the color of their skin. And their family does ♥♥♥♥ all to ameliorate that if they happen to have one at all. So the minute they get an ounce of female attention over the internet via some form of parasocial relationship is the minute they get the credit card out. Because it's the only way they can do what evolution has primed them to do and be providers.

That's part of it, at least. Want simp to go back to being what it meant in the 90s and thus being someone who farts in a bathtub? Then understand we live in a society that is broken and needs mending and proceed to get on it, doggone it.

imagine giving women 0.1μg of attention
