I appreciate your concern, but no need to worry. I've got a lot going for me and I'm really happy in a way that isn't produced by someone else. It's self-made happiness and no one can take that from me

Yeah, becoming more well-read, having interesting hobbies, and being in better shape isn't important to women

Yeah. Some here act like you are a potential serial killer if you don't desire a mate/SO to validate who you are.

Oh, I wish it was. I wish that having those qualities and then some would make the grade with women. However, my experience tells me otherwise.

It is what it is.

well if you're never getting any results, don't know why people think you should keep bothering with it anyways.

Neither has yourself.

I'm not saying it's easy, because it's not, but with effort you can have a great dating life. So therefore all you've done is give up.

So for those out there struggling with dating, it's definitely worth it. Grab your balls and go get what you want.
Why? Where is it written in stone that you have to be dating to live a happy life?

What I don't understand is why is it that so many on this board feel they can speak for other people. If you feel that it's worth it to go through the painstaking effort for dating then more power to you. Just accept the fact that not everyone feels the same way.

Well you can take them out and pay for their dinner, I'll pick them up at their place later that night for the real fun. Hope you have a lot of money saved up in your bank account

Thank you. This is the point I'm trying to get across. I've seen many many friends go the dating route and find someone amazing and I'm super happy for them. One of my best friends met a girl online and they just got married and I was very happy for both of them, they are perfect for each other.

I've put my time in, I've made my effort, and it just hasn't worked out for me. I'm not a happy person when I'm dating, it just doesn't suit me well and I don't enjoy it. I enjoy the actual act of being out with someone, but it's the inbetween confusion and games and not knowing why they'll choose to ignore me or wait days to call back or sleep with me one night and tell me they aren't interested in a relationship the next. I've gained a few FWB's out of it, but I didn't start dating to find girls to have sex with.

Anyway, that's my short rant, but ultimately I'm a happier person when I'm NOT dating or searching or seeing someone. And finding someone you think is the right person always ends in major heartbreak.

I see people telling me I should "stick with dating and don't give up" as if people were telling me to use heroin. Sure, if I score some smack I'll be in heaven for a while, but when that eventually ends I'll have to go through the pain and sickness of the withdrawal. I'd rather just stay clean and be happy via other methods of living my life than putting my emotional health and happiness at risk.

What's wrong with that?
