The worst.

I'm glad you seemed to have handled it a little better than me. It won't happen again though.

Not true in the least. If you think no one will want you, then yea, no one will want you. Lots of ugly to mediocre guys get some in college. You have to figure at least half of people are below average looking, and certainly more than half the people out there were f*cking around in college. Being someone that suffered from depression (on and off meds) for much of my 20s, I can say, when you're down you are NOT DATABLE.

Gotta take care of the depression first. I hated the meds and side effects, for me the answer was exercise. I have to hit the gym at least 6 times a week.

I doubt that I did. I got into some pretty dark places over a couple of them. Wasn't pretty. Thank god that stuff doesn't happen to me anymore.

I dunno - where I went not many people were getting any in college, especially not the ugly. More of us were in that sorry situation than I care to admit. And I wasn't one of those guys who had unrealistic standards. All I wanted was someone female with a nice personality. Looks were not a prerequisite. Couldn't even get that going though.

I was a total gym rat in college. Probably one of the 10 strongest men on campus. But hitting the weights only made me hornier, and not being able to deal with that only made me more frustrated, angry and depressed.

Yeah, I was. But where I went that wasn't much of a positive. We were thought of more as brutes than heroes.
