Only if it was you, Hurricane.

Because, being crass, bitter, and being like this -> <- to any former fugly looking guy like me gets you labeled as that.

Why were you ugly?

You know women can go from ugly to pretty, too, why don't you date those?

well, I am very sorry that you think / feel this way.

Obviously, I have different definition of "strong proud black women".

How did this become about race and why do some people have this strong desire to discuss black women here?

Feeling scorned, much?

LMAO.

I got hit with the ugly stick.

No, I had severe acne. After failed treatments the dermatologist suggested Accutane. To this day I'm not sure if I made a good or bad choice not to go on it, given the bad side effects some people sued over some years ago. Actually, I did try to get it prescribed to me when I was in the Marines. But the f___ Navy didn't want to give it to me... talking about if I entered combat and need antibiotics or something.

Anyways, either choice would have its price to pay I guess.

LOL. Women usually go the other route.

But it does not matter.

You think my issue is with the travail itself, the time waited. That's not my issue. My issue is with the lies. Not that I enjoyed the time waited but I could have easily gotten over that.

I imagine a guy that was reared in the Catholic Church and taught priests are God's representatives on earth, the Church is Holy, would feel very bitter towards the Church when a priest for years was sodomizing him. The feeling or realization of being lied to is a problem.

America turned out to be nothing but a big f___ lie to me.

If I were to have a woman I'd prefer her to be non-American. Or that is to say a non-United Statesian. Shouldn't matter if one is pro-gay. It's the same result, except I won't be selecting for an American man but rather selecting for a woman of a nationality other than that of the USofA.

I've made the mistake of assuming that a guy asking to study with me only wanted to study. I later found out that's a pretty common ploy to get close to a woman the guy's interested in, and get some one-on-one time without being obvious.

There are women who have had severe acne. I can recall two from my high school. She's a beauty now...

Try dating her, before she snatches some other guy.

Meh, I never asked anybody to study with me, though I have had plenty of offers during college.
