The One. Your one true love, who you obsess over endlessly. A crush.

I think they picked up that word from the Pick Up Artist community where the goal is to get your dick wet as often as possible so obsessing over one woman is a sort of disease. For PUAs women are just fuckbots waiting for the right input to spread their legs, you're a fool if you fall in love with one. Plus the real secret of PUAs is volume: keep negging dozens of strangers until you find one who responds to it, and ignore all the ones who tell you to gently caress off -- which doesn't work if you're only interested in one particular woman. Finding your one true love is an anathema.

Which makes it a little odd for incels to pick up the term. But incels are odd.

You never forget your first Doctor! Since Twitch is now streaming all the new shows from 2005 until now, which one should she watch first? She's really not interested in scifi but she's agreed to try a fewe episodes.

“Fiduciary responsibility” lol this game is gonna sell a billion copies and these dorks will never get what they want and that is awesome

“What it boils down for me is, I want a game that will help to pull me out of what's going on for the rest of my day, and just unwind.

We play games for fun.

I get that everyone has their own view points and perspectives, and that's cool. I don't even mind bringing female characters or some whacky cosmetics as long as they thematically fit with the game. But making it such a political conquest of theirs is enough for me to say no thanks.

I'll stick with games that are all about what games should be about. A great way to have fun with friends without the stress we already deal with the rest of the day. There will be plenty of better options it seems anyhow”.

It sort of makes sense for the incels to adopt the term, but from a different perspective. I think they view their obsession over one person as a burden since they are unable in their view to ever be with them, hence it's like a disease. Why they don't relieve themselves of this burden with libido reducing anti-depressants or even more extremely via castration, since they are after all sure they are never getting any anyway, I don't know.

Also a more "normie" interpretation would be simply that obsessing over a single person and only accepting a relationship with them in particular is unhealthy, there are other fish in the sea. It's still a poo poo word though
