Okay, since I'm in a **** me kinda mood, I'm curious, how many of the rest of you have found someone...anyone...at this point I don't really care if you marry 'em, but if you're having sex you better be planning to.

*nuts...could some mod throw a second married option up there for those that are married but don't have children?

I had a girlfriend. It's not a pretty story, don't ask.

As for right now...well, there is someone, but it's...well, it's not fitting into your categories, because we haven't done anything that falls into the definition of "date". Mainly we happen to end up in the same place at the same time freakishly often.

When I had a uniform (Royal Air Force) it was pretty good, but ironically I pulled my ex while in my off duty mode of biker jacket, jeans etc.  

I just looked at all the options in the poll, and 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 have all applied to me at some point.  So I guess the the only thing you can be certain of is change...;)

At the moment, I'm as good as married, and been that way for longer than I care to remember...

[color=66ff00]To all you people who voted option 7:

Look around you, there's a world of 'ugly people' out there who have partners and are very happy. You simply have to have confidence in yourself, wash every so often and have some respect for yourself i.e. don't settle for the first skank (hate that word but can't think of a better one atm) you see.

The main thing is to get out there and talk to girls, doesn't matter about what, just talk to them. Talk to them like equals, not some goddess like being otherwise you get taken for needy and that's a turnoff.

Also you'll never be happy in a relationship unless your happy with yourself first, why are some people so convinced that meeting someone will make them 'complete', 'happy' or some other nonsense? Nobody wants to be around someone who's an emotional wreck except really needy people who are emotional wrecks themselves, not the basis of a good relationship. Also, never aim too high on the looks scale unless you are very secure in yourself, it's an inbuilt human trait that you try to get as much out of life as possible but you will have a very happy relationship with a girl that looks 'ordinary' compared to a relationship with a stunner who makes you feel insecure because every guy is looking at her.

I didn't get my first proper date until I was 24 and it didn't go that great but it's all a learning experience and I'm getting better at it. Consider this, and it's a fact not a suggestion: You'll feel twice as bad having never walked up to the girl and asked her out as you would if you do and get rejected. I refuse to live out life regretting every 'chance I missed' and you should too.

Indeed, and it's bizarre how often I've heard that after months of procrastinating, a guy finally asks someone out, only to discover she's been expecting him to ask for ages. Happened to me, too - knew my girlfriend two years before we started dating, and half of that time she'd been waiting for me to ask. If that's the case and you procrastinate long enough, they might get the wrong idea and think you're not interested.

Post by: Nuke on January 25, 2005, 10:56:36 am
i think il ask that gal out whos always smiling at me at work. i really miss my brittney but if she doesnt want to help the relationship i havent much choice but to leave her.  brittney at least taught me i could attract better looking people. it seems i have several traits that are very desirable to the opposite sex.  

as Maeglamor said aiming too high can be a prodblem but all things work both ways, aiming too low can be just as bad. everyone thinks that looks are important. indeed when i met brittney it was her looks that  prompted me to give her my number. however i was amazed at how intelegent and creative she was. seemed she possessed all those traits that i deemed desirable. looks might prompt you to initiate communication but they are of little use once the relationship gets going.

another thing ive learned is to avoid people with too many preconceptions about the oposite sex. certain people have had such bad luck with relationships that they have fabricated a load of bull**** that they keep in their minds at all times and fail to accept the possibibity that everything they know could be wrong. theese people are on the path of a self fufilling prophecy of failure. they expect failure of the relationship and therefore it happens.

then there are those who havent a clue what they want and those who know what they want but havent a clue as to how to get it. i know this girl who wants a boyfriend but she continues sex-only relationships with a few of her male friends. shes refused a couple date offers but has asked me to sleep with her on more than one occasion. my goal has always been a long term relationship. its a bad habbit to form **** buddy relationships is this case.

the biggest piece of advice i can offer is just wing it and see what happens.

But what you do then, is what will matter.

Hell, if I've been asked out as many times as I have (by both sexes, which I thought was amazing) then so can you.  Although, I doubt you'd like guys hitting on you. :p

Lib, dude, no one is as bad as you describe, OK? No one. So, seeing as how you fit in to the "not no one" category, I think you may be overexagerating a tiny bit.

There are literally tens of millions of people who would kill to be where you are. Minor social problems are nothing to really worry about, unless you're the type of person who likes worrying for its own sake, in which case be my guest.

Guess what? The world isn't filled with supermodels ad rockstars. Its full of normal people like you or me, and unless crocodiles bit off your face or something, there's nothing stopping your from getting (girl)friends and whatnot, excpet your own inhibitions. If you think you suck, its a self-fullfiling prohpecy.

There's no time limit on finding love, Lib.  It could happen tonight, it could happen when you're 45... just wait it out.

That's just it, it's not that I have ever turned anyone down or been turned down.

I've never even been asked...not even looked at.  I am a 6'3", 295lb empty space...

(based on what Rictor mentioned)

Well, you have a roof over your head right? You probably arent hungry   very often are you? Your life isnt threatened on a daily basis is it? You probably have a car right? Your healthy too I persume, no cancer or genetic diseases?

Count your blessings. Some people would DO ANYTHING to get what you have or to be how you are. Be thankful that you are who you are. The trick is to get happy with ones self.

I can't even tell when someone is interested...I'm so dense...I could walk through a room full of women who think I'm the next best this to Brad Pitt and not realize it...my only reaction would be anxiety over being in a crowded room...

Thing is Lib, that's not strictly true, else you would not be here, typing these words.

The thing is, the statement 'Theres someone for everyone' is not true. There are thousands of people for everyone. There are, without doubt, 20 girls within 50 miles who would happily be in a relationship with you if :-

1) They knew you.
2) You lost some of that self-loathing.

The first thing you have to do is shake that conviction that you aren't 'worth' a girlfriend. that you are too geeky or different. I mean, you're in the middle of a Forum for a 5 year-old game worrying about being a geek. Yet many of us are in relationships etc, because we know that in our own little ways we are geeks, everyone is.

Women will detect an emotional martyr a mile off and avoid them, before you can find someone to believe in, you must learn to believe in yourself.

Lib.
If you're a geek, you gotta find a geeky girl too.  Happened to me. I'm with my very first gf, who loves me. And before her, I though there's nobody that even likes me. But now, I think there are and have been girls that liked me.  You gotta belive in yourself :)

I never said I can't stand you, I said I give up trying to convince you to stop hating yourself.

These threads, where you ask others about their lives, so you can complain about your own have got to stop, though.

There are people better off than you, yes. But there are people alot worse off than you, too. Your problems are nothing in the grand scheme of things.

1. The best way to not get a girlfriend is to look for one.
2. Talk to every girl as a potential friend, don't get all nervous because they look good, simply tell them they look good, wheres the damage in saying that? If they become friends you may meet someone through them, or your friendship may grow, but it always needs to start off as a friendship. Guys who get all fidgety and insecure will put a girl off.
3. Remember, women like helplessness in kittens and puppies, in men, it bores them.

This thread is full of funny.

Seriously, if you're going to come in here to a forum for a five year old game full of 1997 male geeks, moan about your girl situation, turn down all advice and compliments to the otherwise, and ***** some more about how pathetic and miserable you are, women are really the least of your worries.

Take some advice and try it, or go buy some professional advice. Staying here and constantly reminding us of your self-created pit of sorrow without heeding a word we say is annoying to say the least and a waste of everyones' time to put it bluntly. Unless some part of you likes the way you are, then shut up and start trying to change. Otherwise, you're crying to the only group of people you consider friends about how you have none. Frankly, if you're not going to listen, then I don't really care what happens to you.

And crying in self-pity is deffinitely one of the easiest ways to get any girl to become uninterested.

all you can get here is our bullsh!t, go see a pro and you can get some really expensive bull**** and maybey some pills (ones that would make your d!ck go limp anyway) from a guy with alot of wallpaper. you may utilize the bullsh!t provided to you through your religion. or you may fabricate your own bullsh!t. i find little use for bullsh!t, though i seem to fabricate alot of it. the best knoledge is that which you aquire on your own. you seem to be out for pity, not advice. you may get a little, but soon people will realise they are wasting there time, and then you wil really be alone. shutup, get up and go fight the battle on the front lines. you dont need any bullsh!t

I'll take all the advice I can get.  Doesn't mean I have to like it or am psychologically capable of following it...

But that's not the purpose of this post.

I have been an Attention Whore, Drama King  and a whiny little prick in general for the last couple of days and I wish to apologize.  You guys do not deserve that kind of treatment.  I'm sorry.  

I'm going to shut up now, before I stick my size 12s down my throat again.

*admins/mods please lock any thread that I start to get like this in again or at least ban me from posting in it.

What do you expect? They're not going to get any attention from their ability to make good conversation in the real world. Perhaps insulting someone from the safety of anonymity helps their cronic acne to receed or something.
