I'm sorry, but this question cracked me up.



You have to work on your personality and other things to make yourself a little more desirable to the opposite sex.

Perfectly said!

There are many women out there for you. I've seen all types of couples. A few days ago i saw once again lookswise an above average guy with a way below average woman. Kids in tow also. Probably she has a great personality. Who knows.

Guys like this need to accept they have very little chance with women and move on.

They're perfectly aware. They detest that personality type and are intent on driving it out of the gene pool.

Quoted because it bears repeating.

And not for nothing, but healthy people would rather a partner be in love with them, than in love with love. When people are in love with love, it doesn't matter who their partner is, just as long as they have one. That means their partners are easily replaced. Who wants to feel like they are easily replaced?

OP, your attitude toward relationships would make a woman feel easily replaced.

I concur. I had to drop one friend for trying to throw crap at me. If you want to be my friend, don't act like you want to fight me. I will hurt something.

I guess another way to look at it is your friend just wants you to experience the happiness they are having

Also, some women like the thrill of the chase, or going after something that's practically unattainable.
When you first meet a girl (from a singles site) say to her "Hi There. It doesn't matter to me whether or not I find a one and only and I'm only meeting women from singles sites for the experience of meeting women from singles sites. Now that I told you this, what kind of coffee may I get you?"

That's all fine and dandy, but women are usually too into needing men to notice. That's fine, because that's just how it is.

Being ugly...you can fix that with money. Being dumb enough to get into relationships with trash? You can wise up and fix that...eventually.


The Only Piece of Advice You Will Ever Need to Pick Up and Attract Women and Keep Them Vying For Your Love, Attention and Affection

What does an alpha Lion do? He sits around while the women go out and hunt for him. When they bring the food back what does the alpha Lion do? He eats first. Pretty selfish, huh?

The Lion doesn’t tolerate others eating before him. The best food is his. The alpha Lion doesn’t let other, lesser males mate with his pride. The Lion doesn’t act in a fair and noble manner. The Alpha Lion doesn’t raise other Lion’s children. He’s selfish. And because he is selfish, the Lionesses do everything to make him happy.

Now, I know a lot of guys will say “man, that’s a real douchebag thing to say!” to which I only have one reply: I hope you enjoy jacking off.

Political incorrectness does not make something false.
