After that you won't want to go back to the 'vanilla' here in the US. I know I haven't,
Outside of work (where I am uptight and Type A as hell), I am very laid back, smile a lot, tell tons of stupid jokes, some smart jokes (dry wit), and love a good conversation.
Some of my type A comes out on this forum...I am more easygoing in a social setting.
Dunno where you're from, but I lived up in western WA for a while and can tell you a few things about people up there. The moodiness is 100% due to a lack of sun. When the sun does come out, it's like a miracle is happening...but mostly it's gloomy, and the trees are very shadowy and gloomy, too, and it's forever drizzly and wet. But! I found some interesting things...first of all, the folks up there are very drawn to color and vibrancy of any kind. In fact, that is a huge defense against the gloom. Bright colors, creativity, arts and music, I even met a number of people who were into spinning and juggling fire. Normal people, not circus people. So if you're an artist or musician, or can at least place yourself in the right light and surroundings, that might help your chances. Let a girl up there see you in a rare moment of sunshine, if you can. If I were going to try and sell anything to anyone in WA, I'd photograph it in the sun.
Also, I expected, having grown up in the shadow of Washington DC, that my remnants of east coast attitude would not allow for me to fit in. Au contraire. They love that. They even have a popular pizza joint in Olympia where the serve "NY style pizza with east coast attitude." But the staff working there were smiling at people...I told them they were doing it wrong...but the pizza was at least quite good. Anyways, I found that they love novelty, attitude...they're basically starved for stimulation up there. At least that was my take on the place.
I'm in a gloomy part of Tx unfortunately, and maybe that's why. Now that I think about it, it does rain a lot here and people are very negative and gloomy.
So it is gloomy and people are moody? Darn, so I guess I heard right then. That's so disappointing..well it still would be a great place to visit. I heard the dating scene was really good in Oregon, but idk since I've never been there.

Yeah, but it's different from any part of TX. Because there is a grandeur to nature...it might be gloomy, but it's also green. Really green. Year round.
And not everyone is gloomy, because they've figured out how to fight those blues, a lot of 'em. I've never experienced such a vibrant music and arts scene in my life. My favorites were Super Geek League (Seattle) and March Fourth Marching Band (Portland.) Do a quick Youtube and watch a couple minutes here or there, because that is how they party up there. If you see a vid for SGL's cover of "What You Know About That?" I was actually at that show, it happened up in Bellingham. It was amazeballs.
But see...I really think all of that is like a polar opposite reaction to the tendency to fall into the gloom. Some people can't fight it and get depressed...others embrace life to an explosive degree and live like there is no tomorrow.
Maybe to a certain extent, I haven't been all over the world, but I do hope travel to Europe one day.
Anyways, I noticed that when I went into Mexico, I found dating a WHOLE lot easier, as in I had way more girls than I could shake a stick at vs in the U.S.
There is a certain way to flirt there as well and I learned it real quick as well as had some people point out some things. Here in the U.S., it seems like a mystery. I mean even if you are doing everything right, the woman could still blow you off for X reason it seems like and you would be scratching your head, wondering what you did wrong.
No need to go anywhere,you're in Texas the Mexicans come to you!
One of the things experience has taught me is that girls usually don't blow you off for no reason. It's usually bc 1) she's not attracted to u....or 2) she feels that things won't work out between you 2
Number 1 you can fix. Number 2 you should thank her for.
For example, last night a girl messaged me on online dating. She was interested. We talked for a while and then texted. At first, it was very flirty and fun...and somewhat sexual. Soon, it turned into her lamenting about her problems and telling me about how shes scared of flying and doesn't like to go out ever. She doesn't like to travel. Our personalities are completely different. I realized this and started to lose attraction for her (well as much attraction as two people can have without meeting). She seemed to sense this, thanked me for her time, and said we weren't right for each other.
I agree.
This happens very often. Most girls won't say it to the guy...and most guys won't realize it.
yeah the thing with the girl would definitely be a turn off. I can't say that has never happened to me before.
I will say this, I guess it is me because I don't like the things people do here. I'm not racist, I'm not a redneck and I don't like to go mudding, fishing, hunting(though I have and do like to shoot guns), nor do I like country dancing, though I will dance to anything else. It's a big town with a small town mentality and I just don't like it.
I will say this though, I have recently met people from conneticut and boston and they both told me they have had problems as well, and neither one of them were bad looking dudes. The conneticut tolds me he "imports' his girls as in he pays for their plane or bus ticket. He said its worth the money than dealing with girls here. That should tell you something I suppose. I still have hope though and try not to paint everyone with the same brush. Maybe one day I will run into the woman that is right for me.

I'll look that up, I am definitely interested in moving up north or at least visiting for a while

Haha, I wish it were that easy, there are not a lot of hispanics where I live and most get married right after highschool.
