That means you've whinged or complained about the same thing, one thousand times.

What does that tell you about how much fun you are to be around? About how over focused you are on your own misery?

As for everyone else "kicking you when you're down"...maybe they figure you secretly enjoy it. You certainly seem to post enough threads about it.

YOU obviously seem to enjoy it. I don't, but clearly you do.

But you've made that completely impossible. Here you are, shouting about how women are arrogant, power hungry, evil creatures - why would any of them WANT to be with you? I think I'm a pretty nice person. I'd say that most of the men I've dated thought I was kind of wonderful. I know my husband thinks I'm pretty awesome. And yet - even though now you can be nice to me - your first reaction to me was to lash out at me and put me down. If you insult someone - do you think they are going to show you how wonderful they are? Finding someone to be with isn't about them proving you wrong. It isn't about them proving you right either. It's simply about getting to know someone with a clean slate. You've made that impossible. If I went around thinking that all men were the scum of the earth looking for that singular man to prove me wrong - do you think I would have had much luck?

I think what she's trying to point out is that there is a pattern to your thoughts and behavior, one that is keeping you from having a healthy relationship with a woman.

1000 times says you LOVE it.

Paying $100s for someone to HAVE to listen to you also says, you love it.

Your situation is entirely self created, self perpetuated, self feeding. It is who you are. It is how you define your world. Mean, nasty people and YOU, the permanent victim.

There are many wonderful women in the world. It's unfortunate that you haven't met any that are. But the next woman you meet, it isn't her job to prove your opinion wrong. She has nothing to do with any other woman you've ever met, dated or been interested in. You have all women lumped together as one and we are as different as snowflakes.

Can you tell us more about these rejections? Have you been able to get dates at all, or no? If you've gotten dates, is it that they don't want another one after the first? Has a woman ever been directly mean or antagonistic to you or merely not interested?

What has your therapist advised?

All of these answers would help us to help you more, but ultimately the key to your happiness is you.

I doubt you'd get you want currently as I think most wonderful women would pass on a guy they have to prove something to because she has a vagina.

I highly doubt a wonderful woman would want to be with a guy who thinks of her gender as you do likely the woman that wants to be with you in your current state won't be wonderful.

Amusing how you bemoan that feminism is scapegoating men for actions of other men when you seem to be quite content with doing the same with women.

Of course i won't get what i want. I never get what i want. That's the whole reason i'm bitter.

Likely you never get what you want because of your mindset, standards, and what you offer in return.

More likely the whole reason you're bitter is because you're a 'nice until no' guy perhaps you'd be less bitter if there wasn't entitlement or you had better coping mechanisms to rejection.

And frankly, a number women literally write the exact same thing in their personal ads. "Are there any nice guys left?" "Prove me wrong" A number of scorned women literally ask for the same thing from men. I'd be happy to try and prove a scorned woman wrong, provided i found one i liked and she gave me the chance.

Seems you have quite a bit of options find a woman you like who will give you chance in the number of women who literally write the exact same thing, assessing your standards and what you have to offer in return (attractiveness, wealth, status, personality), escorts, prostitutes, foreign women or mail order bride.

Perhaps try taking action on one of those options.
