That is to say that it will work. Unless you're a genuine A-hole, then being yourself and going out and meeting lots of people, you'll find the right one eventually. The key is just being yourself, and not being out to "get" someone, because that will most likely bring you to the WRONG person, or nobody at all.


(Look around you, and look at all the oddballs, dorks, and otherwise seemingly undatable people who have wonderful relationships... There's someone for everyone.) <-- be optimistic!
I am definitely not an A-hole (despite what some on here might think).

I never found the right one, ended up with the wrong one (because she was the only one), and have been miserable for a long, long, long time since. It is now a horrible, intractable situation for all involved.

Well, that explains a lot.

You choosing to remain in a lousy marriage explains the anger in your posts about women who file for divorce. It makes sense to me now. You're unhappy, but won't leave your marriage, so you're going to lash out at those of us who were unhappy, did leave our marriages, and are happy now. Good luck with that. Just don't take it out on me, because I have nothing to do with your lousy marriage or your wife's behavior. If you are that miserable in your marriage, you should leave.

But anyway...

Don't go for the women who are being chased by 100 men.

There is no point. It's not worth the rejection. Get yourself some good porn and call it a day. Or move to an eastern european country and see if you have better luck there. American women will accuse you of "not being able to handle a strong woman", but who cares what they think if you can find someone who makes you happy.

How is that going to solve this problem?

LOL not yet, I didn't leave the United States yet. Although I guess it could be worse... I could live in Australia. That place is the biggest feminist hellhole for guys to live in on the planet.
