And what will you do tomorrow?

How do you keep your focus on the aspects of yourself that you can change, and off the aspects you cannot change?

What kind of person are you aiming to become? (Not who will you date, but what will you be like?)

I work out 4 times a week. Today is Thanksgiving, I don't do anything on Holidays except visit family, cook, and eat.

Tomorrow I will work 12 hours in steam-filled rooms and also throw batches of 1400lbs of meat into kettles throughout the day. When i get home tomorrow I will probably shower, eat, and pass out because I won't have any energy to do anything, then do it again on Saturday. I don't know what I will feel like on Sunday.

I think it's a bad idea to improve yourself with the express interest of getting women because you will find that 1) it might not help after all, 2) you wasted all that time doing something you care nothing about to impress someone who doesn't even like you after that.

What aspects do you suggest men improve about themselves?

Since women always talk about men accepting them for who they are, shouldn't women generally allow a similar type of mentality from men? Sure, someone who has no drive for success is one thing, but the onus shouldn't be only on the man, and women can just sit back and wait with little self improvement.

First of all, I love this post! We should be taking strides every day for personal development-- not just to find a date, but to live a better life.

However, I'd like to add that this applies to BOTH sexes. There are women out there who consider themselves to be undateable, but don't do anything to change that.

If you want to get something you've never had, you have to do something you've never done!

Enjoy the holiday, everyone

Ohh, ohh, pick me, pick me!!

How about: get off the internet and stop b*tching about the same old thing and DO something different than you've done before, to get different (and hopefully better) results.

this morning i was at the gym for a bit...body sculpting and yes, im attracted to females that workout...body art is arousing

ive been cleaning up my language for a few years now, from immature innuendos and swearing at will...i have a much more respect tongue now

clothes, im not a metrosexual or anything, but i dress how i want, and its usually something basic.

on a second note, it is funny when you see dudes trying way too hard

I think some of the men who complain aren't on here that much.

Some of them are barely on here and others are on here way less than some of the people who are telling them what to do. But I digress.

I really think that guys do try and do different things.

Like I always tell guys to hit quickly and get your answer early. Obviously that comes from real life experience and not from living in a vacuum.

Mod cut: Off topic.

Dude, I'm rarely on this forum. I'm busy pursuing my hobbies and meeting-up with my guyfriends. What do you mean do something that I've never done before? Short of making myself taller, I did try everything under the sun in my early to mid 20's to no avail.

last plan was to go to college to get laid... couple of years later and... nothing... that's kind of a bust so moving to plan B,

today; studied.
women like career/successful guys, so first step is the mastersdegree...
tomorrow; same thing.

Long-game sucks :P... 2~ish years to go for phase 1 lol
