No, dating will not be any easier for you at that age. You won't ask women out now. You've been posting under various usernames here for the last three years, and your sob story is the exact same as it was then.

You've wasted at least 3 years doing nothing to improve your lack of dating life, so i can't see you magically waking up one day a changed man. Here's just a sample from a post you made in October, 2012:

I actually sort of started talking to this girl at my gym who had headphones on a few weeks ago and she seemed to enjoy our interaction. She was brand new to the gym and I answered a bunch of questions and helped guide her in the right direction (I've been working out for a while). I went away after a couple minutes though and didn't ask for her number or anything because I didn't want to come across as a desperate loser
See? Same sh*t, different year. Three years of life that you can never get back, all because you don't ask women out and would rather hang out with men, or your precious television. There is no hope for you.

What gets me about you guys who rate women is that you talk about a 5 like that's the bottom of the barrel. A 5 is average, it's the widest point on the bell curve. Most people are 5s, even you, OP. So why then do you think you deserve a 6 or higher?

Gosh, where have you been? He has a 2 to 1 shoulder to waist ratio, that's why!

You know what I was doing when I was 26? I was living at home with my parents, making less than $30k/yr. and I still found a cute girl to date me. Oh, and I drove a 10-year old Dodge Aspen.

It's wasn't hard! I'm all personality, though.

Yes, I fear you are right. Sadly, people with this disorder struggle throughout their lives. By 25, their fate is more or less carved in stone. They won't get help because they will never admit they need it. Nothing ever, ever changes for them.

Medication is of no use. In fact, patients usually adamantly resist medication. It is not uncommon for these individuals to be referred to therapy by their employers, especially when increased conflicts continue in the workplace. Nevertheless, the prognosis is dim. These patients usually consistently have relationship problems, and therapy does become stressful and tiresome.

This guy is sorely lacking in personal self awareness.... I say this without trying to be snarky..... he's running on the perpetual hamster wheel and the course isn't looking to change anytime soon.

Shame, actually... to see someone waste their lives.

This guy might wake up at about 42 and wonder where the **** his life went......

Based on your posts, you don't seem to have the self-awareness that is takes to make this happen, so it probably won't get easier for you. If anything, it will get harder as you continue to blame everything else except yourself for you lack of success.
This isn't really fair. It may be his looks holding him back, in which case there's really nothing he could do.

Footloose and fancy free my boy!

Never been married, right?

No alimony

No children

No child support

Not upside down in a home or vehicle you lost in the divorce


Any woman has to be nuts not to give guys like this a shot unless you are a hideously ugly toad that works part time at the video store.....

Like OMG!!

He makes 400k a year!

Yeah, he's also been married three times, has 4 kids and lives in a upstairs rented apartment in the ghetto slum area of town while his wife still has HIS 1.4 Million house and the keys/title to the BMW, Audi and Benz!

She also gets $2,000 a week child support!


On paper he's a gem!

IRL he's a TURD!!

Keep in mind all this sh*t is subjective

Some women here have said I'm average looking, in real life many people have said I'm extremely handsome or gorgeous. At the end of the day, all that matters is she is attractive to me. I might be a 5 to some but a 9 to others

The important thing is that she puts in a real effort to look decent. Most women who look unappealing just don't try - as in they are overweight or they smoke, or they drink and party like crazy. If you just take decent care of yourself, almost everyone can be decent looking
