You really want that kind of female interested in you? I guess you have to decide if you prefer quantity to quality when it comes to relationships. That is, if I bought your point that more women prefer serial killers to nice guys. Which I don't. All the women I know personally are married to nice guys, and I'm engaged to one.

So what are you going to do about it? Continue to type and whine or take the advice that's been given to you and do something about it? Like I POINTED out....you've not discovered anything new by this thread....or any of the others for that matter. What are we on now...number 20??

My grandfather used the old saying alot "Either s*it or get off the pot!" Translation for the manlets = Do something about it or quit your b*tching!

I think you've got that backwards. Very few women tend to like serial killers but they tend to be more vocal about it. Some women like bad boys and they are in for a hard life with lots of heartbreak. Some men think that not having a criminal record makes them a nice guy. Some people (of both genders) are genuinely nice, they find each other and live happily ever after.

One of my close male friends is short (5'5"), average looking, and poor (grad student), but he's smart, funny and kind. I've known him for 8 years, and he's been single a grand total of 8 months, and that by choice (he ended a 5 year relationship and wanted so be single for a while). His girlfriends are not supermodels, but they are attractive in their own ways, and really nice women to boot. What's his secret? He genuinely cares about people. A lot of so called nice guys think that because they have a job and aren't criminals that they are nice. Being nice isn't about ticking boxes, it's about truly caring about someone for who they are as a person and being a friend. It's about not being jealous or possessive. In my experience, the guys who are capable of having good friendships with men (not just football buddies) are able to extend those same qualities to relationships with women. The guys who complain about not being able to get women tend to also have a hard time making true friends of either gender. Just something to think about.

Of course not. That's the point. I'm talking about likelihoods. I'd have a better shot of getting a woman if I were a criminal!

I admit, I ahve all sorts of faults, problems, etc.. But when I'm less desirable to more women than a murderer, there's something really F'd up about this world.

What you haven't picked up on is that you're not desirable to women because you're whiny, self-absorbed, and lack confidence, not because you're not dangerous.

Are you kidding me? Please go be a criminal...rob a Victoria's Secret or something...get some time behind bars. Then report back to us and let us know if you get more female action or YOU are the female getting action from your fellow roomies!

So, whiney, self absorbed and lacking in confidence is lower than pedophile serial murderer?

It makes no difference, you'll still be a clown...... The only difference is that now you would have a criminal record but you would still be the same insecure whiner....
