Before I cared about women, my life was so much better. I didn't feel like I was a failure in the dating market (which really is like a market even if you don't like to think of it that way), because I had never even tried! If you don't try, you don't run the possibility of failing.

Men are judged in part on their ability to attract women. It seems like the guys who are able to do it are just born that way. Who knows, though. Women can be vicious. They can completely wreck a guy's self-esteem. I'm starting to realize now how picky they are and how they're basically in a position of power because they're the sexual gatekeepers and they don't have the need like we do.

I think I mentioned this before, but when I lived in a fraternity I got to see firsthand how the aphorism that "10% of the men get 90% of the women" plays out. There was 1 guy in my house who all the women were obsessed with. I'm not exaggerating when I say that, for the short time he was living in, there was a trail of sorority girls trickling through the house just because they wanted to get ****ed by him. I've realized the common-sense principle that most guys are completely worthless to women. "Sperm is cheap, eggs are expensive" is the mantra. I am basically an evolutionary loser, unfit to pass on my genes.

I'm throwing in the towel with the whole dating thing. It's depressing to think about. I'm ready to move on with other aspects of my life, to put my pursuit of women in the past where it belongs.

I, Jason, hereby surrender to the dating scene.

While I understand that you are frustrated and needing to vent, you should know that a whiners attitude will never get you what you really want.

And no matter how much you deny it, we all know what you really want.

So go ahead, take 5 minutes to moan and groan some more - get it out of your system - then be a man and suck it up.

Typical female response. I didn't expect anything different.

"It's obviously your whiney attitude that turns of women" (as if you have any evidence that I carry this attitude in real life. For your information, honey, I keep up a confident and exuberant facade around people in real life.)

Good luck in your future adventures and I do hope you find the happiness you are seeking very soon.
In the mean time I do hope you take a vacation from complaining about how empty your life is because you are not dating.

Dating can be easy for a guy, you just have to know what youre doing. As to figuring out who women are and their true nature, can be a bag of mixed feelings.

Okay?

I've given up on having a relationship too...but honestly nobody cares. About you, me, or anyone else. You come across as a tad narcissistic and you blame women for your shortcomings. Hell, even *I* know it's my fault I can't get into a relationship...maybe you should re-evaluate yourself.

GlitteringPrizes,
I am so sorry you feel that most women are vicious. And that you think only a small percentage of men get all the women. But I just have to say there are nice, genuine, down-to-earth females out there who want nice guys. I agree that you should hang in there and don't give up. You will meet a woman who likes you and is not following others to be with Mr. Shallow.
