Why do you think it is that you NEVER see any women you're attracted to? Are you really picky or something else? There is a lot of people that that will deem your hobbies as 'unacceptable.' I got the clear impression when I read that hobby thread young women shouldn't say they like 'knitting' -- because it turns men off or something like that. I didn't know that. Oh well, I lists it on my profiles, I don't care. You're right I think, the majority of people I see in the library are women -- sometimes a few men though. Long time ago my female friend said you can 'pick dates up in Barnes and Noble' -- so I tried that and went home with a good book to read. I did not/do not understand the concept of picking up dates/men. You collect door knobs? Why? I collect different things: vinyl records, 50s & 60s toasters, Blythe dolls among other things. I blame Aspergers for this....It's a shame you didn't approach the purple cape girl, b/c honestly I think she doesn't get approached much (even though I never seen her, just guessing). She probably would've been really glad, but if she was a nutcase nvm. LOL.

I think it's a combination of my being overly picky and just boredom with people. For years I worked with a bunch of rough men in warehouses, and 99% of the time the women they would say were hot I would just think, "meh". Not that they weren't hot or sexy, but it seems I've just grown very bored of the standards of hot and sexy. And that boredom spills over into how I perceive other peoples' personalities, too, and that's probably a bigger shame. But those are reasons why 95% of the time being single doesn't bother me much.
I don't collect door knobs, I was just using that as an example of a strange hobby someone might have that would really catch my attention. I have no idea why someone would do that, but it would definitely stand out to me.
Yes, I probably should have approached cape girl. I guess I could have complimented her cape? I don't know. Maybe I'll see her again. The good thing about living here compared to my home town is that I see a LOT more unusual and interesting people. Sometimes it's a good thing and sometimes bad, but at least it's interesting.

Hard to beleive though that you get 'bored' with hot and/or sexy -- but not going to dredge that up again . You get the point....oops I took that door knob comment literally, my bad....People have told me that WA has a lot of very unique and interesting people -- i remember Amanda knox and kurt cobain are from there. LOL. Also the music scene is very lively. Yea, if you see her again approach her maybe, not sure what you should do when you walk up to her. You're on on your own with that one . It makes me wonder though how many men see women and just don't approach them and that woman is very unsuspecting of the whole thing.

It's kind of hard to explain, I guess. You see all of these women who are considered sexy and, aside from some minor differences, they all sort of look the same. And when I lived in TN most of the women made an effort to emulate that look, and then they all looked about the same, too. At least to me. So I might see one of those women and think, "Yes, she's a good looking woman. but so is she, and that one over there, and that one, and all of those...and...none of them really look unique." I must say, a lot of the women here at least have a knack for looking unique.
I actually started an OKCupid account. Went to a lot of trouble answering questions and taking tests and carefully writing my own profile. Then, when I started browsing my matches, I couldn't find a single person I wanted to contact. There were a few I found physically attractive, but after reading their profiles I just lost all enthusiasm for contacting them. There were some I didn't find particularly physically attractive, so I read their profiles hoping maybe I'd find something. But no, the profiles were all basically the same. In short, I'm ridiculously picky but possibly in a weird way.
