And what poor guys and bums do you know that are pulling in the ladies?
I know plenty of poor guys and bums pulling in the ladies. Learn to play guitar, that'll get a ton of women and you can be a poor dude living on peoples couches.

Good point. California pretty is a different ball game for sure. (and pretty limited)


I am on my phone, please forgive the typos.

Typically if you have the confidence to call yourself good-looking. You are either A)douchebag, B)good-looking. You really are most likely A. Cause you say you can't get laid. Anybody can get laid if they put the effort in and lowered their standards or timed it right.

Must be nice that it's so easy for you. Enjoy it while you have it. You'll likely go through a dry spell sooner or later... most guys do.

I'm not saying i'm the best looking guy in the world, but i think i am good looking relative to the women i try and approach.

I am going through a dry spell right now. I don't necessarily mind it.

I just am saying that maybe you are not that good looking or charismatic enough to get the girls you approach.

It's likely you are over-estimating your looks. The same for the OP. Men who think they are more and have more to offer than the women they go after have more illusory ideas about themselves than anything else.

Men NEED to have something to offer a woman. A woman just needs to pick the best opponent for herself.

That's not how it goes for quality men. Quality men want quality women. I know plenty of successful and talented men who demand the same from their women and they get it.

Quality is really laughable. It doesn't have a serious definition. I know some quality men and really they are laughable at some of the things they have done. Sure most of them have chosen professors, engineers, successful businesswomen as their wives. But still there are enough who have chosen just the hot chick with a brain would have without a doubt been good for all of them.

I thought you had a GF?
