Because I'm repulsive... and something else I'm apparently not allowed to talk about in here.

Possibly that's why I don't do so well in the getting dates department. In an actual relationship, I'm not all that bad. Of course that's where real life issues hit the pavement and someone's character is important. It's getting a woman's attention that seems to be the issue.

I can't find a way to be superficial enough. JK

Need more flash and bang... Get their attention. Dangle something expensive and flashy in front of them or something.. JK again

No LOL of course you are allowed to chat about it mate

But she, myself and others have A LOT of trouble in believing that fella as you are quite decent in our opinion

I can promise im not being patronising at all and genuinely hope you can take some solace from this and have a better, more confident outlook about yourself........ Because if you wont who will?

Yep! Not just trying to make you feel better, because I'm really not all that nice
Even the inappropriate amount of low self esteem you seem to be exhibiting here, isn't enough to cancel out your picture and put you in the "ish" pile, so there's gotta be something else going on.

Maybe a trip to London as an investment, with some time as Cowboy's wingman would help? I think if you saw how a little charm and confidence goes a long way, you may have a new outlook

Who said I wasn't confident? Or that I had no charm? I'm good with myself. I like who I am.

Doesn't make the women around me agree. They think I'm utter passable trash. What can I do about that? Nothing so far as I can see... Swipe thousands on Tinder, match none. Zero. Scince says I'm repulsive. Fact is fact, kids.

This makes me fearful to move to another city, honestly, if this is how it is. I turned on my profile for about 36 hrs, received 3 messages, wrote on person. Meeting the person I wrote Monday and moved to texting with one. The other two were fine, just dont' have the time right now.

I'm considering moving to a satellite city as I'm conducting a condo hunt and threads like this make me really hesitant! Maybe Boston is just great for OLD.

Planning a trip to London. I'll bring the git-fiddle. We'll hit up some local open mic night, we'll serenade the ladies, and drink much more than a pint.

I can pick up crazybacatlady and get Mr. Polymath on the keys! We can all get laid and live happily ever after

I think just about any rural area will be a disaster. I speak from experience .
