Sure tell women you're a doctor and see how many gold diggers you get.

Of the three things mentioned, there is only one you can change. Actually you can change your height, but I don't think it medically recommended. So, stop not being the life of the party. You don't have to be the center of attention, just stop blending in with the paint on the walls. If people begin to find you interesting, then someone will be willing to date you to find out more about you.

Do you mind revealing what's your height?

I know many girlfriends who would date you if you are a nice guy with a sense of humor.

And on and on it goes.

OP, do you actually get something out of these endless posts about how undateable you are?

Is it reassurance? Or just entertainment?

Either way, the constant bemoaning of your romantic failures wears a bit thin, especially when you don't seem inclined to actually do anything about it except post on CD.

No one likes a whinger.

Perhaps if you stopped looking in the mirror and started taking a genuine interest in other people, you would get a date.

Someone you help move might have a short, kind of unattractive sister.

Someone you go to gym with might have a single friend she can introduce you to.

That's how normal people go about it. They live their lives and let nature take its course.

It may not be a matter of "finding" the right girl. It may be simply a matter of "right place, right time".

If you don't leave the loungeroom, you're just not in the game.

no matter what anyone says, there are only a few(like 5 at most) million(out of 7 billion) at most people who cannot get a date no matter what

that leaves you with a 99.9% chance of being dateable(this may mean making some major changes that you can and just haven't made)

if you cannot attract the opposite sex, it is your fault without a doubt

add in maybe .4 of the 99.9 who'll need expensive surgery, that means 99.5% dateable .4% need thousands of dollars, and there's no hope for the last .1

even the woman who weighs 1000 pounds can get a date she just needs to lose 850 pounds, which is possible.

Understandably, most of you are sick of my constant posting. I don't blame you. If I were in your position I'd be telling me to shut up as well. But imagine if you were in my shoes. The constant stress at work, the failures in my personal life, living in an increasingly superficial society that tells me my height and ethnicity are a handicap to finding love. What would you do in my situation? Wouldn't you vent sometimes as well?

I can't imagine constant stress at work, failures in my personal life.........are you kidding?

Sounds like LIFE to me.

The increasingly superficial society tells me I'm too damn old to be any good, and the wrong sex (female) and I shouldn't be a single mother or overweight or have b(tchy resting face or pms or even complain when I painfully lose half my blood supply once a month, just smile through it.

I should be invisible because I'm only a woman and an old one at that, society tells me to shut up and sit down.

Do I come posting and whingeing about it, even though I've had many, many more decades suffering it?

No...I come on CD to laugh at you and others like you who feel so bloody entitled, because at least I still have my sense of humour.

have you considered the idea of getting a woman from say China or another country in Asia? A lot of the women in poorer countries would be happy to date you, regardless of the fact that you are short (only by american standards), especially since you are a U.S. based doctor.
