Not a big deal, Guy. Just do the right diet, work out, and *presto-change-O*, you'll have a new look. All it takes is some discipline and will-power. Once you see progress (which is pretty fast, on the right diet), you'll feel encouraged, and you'll get more motivated. The motivation snowballs, once you see results.

I think you can fix it.

That's not that far out of shape man.

I'm taller and weigh more then both Matt and you.......quite a BIT.

If you really want to drop pounds fast...remember this is summer here now.

Get in the pool, get in the lake and swim....swim your butt off.

That's great cardio for dropping pounds fast. You are using everything all at once. Get on some weights and strength training to bulk up a bit.

Still though....178 is not that bad. With a little work you will have a Rottie build the ladies should like unless they are into the G-Q look.

Don't quit and stay motivated.

Good luck!

You lower the bar until you get attention, if that means you basically have to have no standards then so be it. Its not hard to figure out when you have to lower the bar, when women are into you its obvious.

Guys like this are told by females to take what they get even if they're not attracted to the women who are interested in them. But at the same time women say you shouldn't date girls who you aren't all the way interested in because its unfair to that woman

Stop worrying about getting a girlfriend/relationship (the old saying that you find love when you stop looking is pretty darn true, from what I've seen). START focusing on getting in shape (since you say that's important to you), and stop wallowing in self pity. Do you know the best way to stop wallowing in self pity? Do things for others....VOLUNTEER. Find something that interests you and speaks to your heart, and get involved. There are so many good causes out there and organizations that need people who care. You will feel a LOT better about yourself, and you never know...you might just come across someone else (of the opposite sex ) who shares your same interest in helping others. But even if you don't, I can practically guarantee you will be a happier, more confident person.
That's one of the biggest lines of BS ever uttered by man.

You're right. So which is it?

I get nervous when trying to make small talk (which isn't very well-received, all I get are one word answer or a short reply like they are not interested) and I can't get the guts to ask them if I can get to know them better. I put up a profile on a free dating website but I've gotten no replies and there aren't many women there my age without children in my area. I am short and about 30 pounds overweight. I've started going to the gym and watching my diet recently hoping I'd look more attractive, but I am a long way from that. I tend to go for women in similar shape to me, but I can't attract those either.

I want to start a family, but apparently I seem to get more and more worthless as a mate to women as time goes along.
Society demands you change for women.
Other men demand you change for women.
Women demand you change for women.

You spend years building status, working out, forming social groups but for what? For women that don't give a damn about how much you sacrificed or how hard you have it in life. While you are rejected 50-100 times in a year women will never face such a heart breaking issue. All they do is apply makeup, do nothing and men come there way.

The effort one must put in for women is worth it. When I go outside I see so many couples being happy and enjoying themselves.
