What's the longest period of unintended singledom you've experienced?

[Love'sReject]

I used to be overweight and struggled to date girls that I found attractive to me, so I changed my lifestyle in order to get what I wanted out of it. Now I am fit and take very good care of myself, and if you put in the effort you could be too. If you don't do anything to change how you feel about yourself, then you can't complain about it. Trust me, I know.

I stay in shape by being pretty active (and would've been more if certain ex-friends weren't complacent little potsmokers and could've gotten them to play outdoors for Christ's sake). I also learn tons by the day and expose myself to new music by the day as well. Doesn't seem to make a difference; matter of fact, it has the opposite effect.

The better I become and the more I learn, the more I seem to polarize girls. This proves definitively that girls like vapid morons.

How can I be sure you're not a guy pretending to be a girl? Girls rarely admit to having daddy issues; it's usually an extremely subtle, subconscious thing thus they themselves aren't aware of it.

hahahaha I am definitely not a guy. It has been something I've thought about/noticed for a few years and now that I'm older I'm starting to see who I'm attracted to and who I'm not, and kinda made the pattern based off of that.

But you just DID figure yourself out, in fact, with an acute awareness of yourself seldom seen in most. Obviously being as extremely cognizant as you are about your dating habits, you can't seem to want or give a chance to guys who are nice to you.

Having dealt with broken women, I have come across this exact thing invariably: you can't handle the nice guys because of something in your past that makes you shy away from being treated properly.

this attitude is why girls can't hang with you.

my theory is that it wasn't necessarily your being overweight that kept you from what you wanted. but that your increased level of exercise correlated to a higher level of confidence in yourself.

a guy can have abs and look like he man but if his personality sucks then that's that.

Well actually, it's because I'm too cerebral, too well-educated.

But my post to her was not an insult. It's basic psychoanalysis, which normally I don't use but I think it applies in this case.

Whatever you have been doing all this time, do the opposite.

And hopefully that wall of yours will come down.

Take up brain cell-killing activities?

I'm talking personality. Stop being a pompous ass for starters.

[Love'sReject]

Me? Pompous? Not in real life, at least.

It's called Involuntary Celibacy. Google it for support.

[smackie9]

That just made me laugh.....

The lack of sex part hardly bugs me. It's the lack of dates that draws my ire. If I had a girlfriend, I could do a lot..

[smackie9]

If you feel you have something to give, drop that condescending attitude of yours. Be more accepting instead of being so critical of everything.
