OP - having been there, it sounds like you are putting effort into attracting women you don't really like.
I've been giving this a lot of thought, and I think nek hit the nail on the head. The root of my problem is that I let people have too much influence on my emotional state. If I can find a way to just stop letting certain actions bother me, I believe a lot of things would fall back into place, including my sex drive.

I think the reality of life in 2014 is that we're going to have to deal with slutty, selfish, narcissistic girls. That's not negotiable. Might as well just accept it and make the best of it.
Amen.

The more I think about it, the more I'm realizing it's technology in general, not just the social media part, that's making me hate people.
We're biological wired to gravitate to other humans for the sake of social civility, and technology is turning us into something that's not quite human anymore. Transhumanists rave about this, and look forward to the day we can completely abandon our humanity for an "upgraded" form. This makes people seem even more alien, unnatural, and off-putting to the misanthrope. We already find it difficult to relate with them on a personal level, and now we have to deal with their synthetic routines.
But fuck it. If a few dumbasses is the extent of our problems, life isn't that bad. We might as well indulge while we can.
