Going out on Fridays is a no - go. I have to wake up at 7:15 tomorrow to work a 10 hour day

If "your time", is that precious to you, then don't bother even wasting time in a relationship.

Really these folks are trying to help you out. When you open your ears and mind to their advice, I guarantee you will be farther along to where you want to go. Believe me, I've done it.

I tried online dating but got nowhere after I sent out about 40 messages (not one response)


That's something where you have to be almost a standup comic in terms of delivering super witty/funny/unique profile and messages. I am very bland in terms of my actual conversations topics...I can just make people like me cause I come across a certain way (very friendly, honest, genuine). None of those things are possible in an online message cause there is no emotion there


As far as your starbucks thing goes, that's not a bad idea for those who can do that (which I have a lot of respect for). For me, it's incredibly awkward

I noticed you are taking things that are being said, a bit literally, some of these seemed to have been said in jest, somewhat sarcastically.

I'm not going to make any diagnoses, but I have something in mind.

I don't have the slightest clue in the world what you're talking about


Not a clue

I think he means Aspergers. Smart but socially clueless, often coming across as sullen or arrogant without meaning to.

Socially clueless? I've had a few hundred friends over the years and have worked in sales since I was 18. I can socialize with people with my eyes closed

You don't strike me that way at all. You keep insisting you are well-liked and popular (not to mention good-looking and educated), yet you cannot get a girl to show any interest in you.

Cause socializing with people/making friends/closing deals is about a 1000 times easier than getting a girl



Come on, are you kidding me with that question?

Nope. I'm not kidding you. If you are so awesome, good looking, sincere, nice, etc. - and EVERYONE loves you - then why don't you have a girlfriend? It seems that the only possible answer in your mind is that it's everyone else's fault and there is no possible way for you to get a girlfriend. Yet TONS of guys have girlfriends and wives.
