Sometimes I get so tired of you guys. You post complaints why you can't get a girl as facts because of your own limitations and are convinced that men are screwed and that women breeze through life flinging men left and right until they find just the right perfect man.

You know that other guys are going to pile on and agree with you. And the arguing goes back and forth that women have it better, blah, blah, blah. Poor men. Such a sad lot you are.

DId I give you enough sympathy so we can move on to posts from people who are not so jaded and actually want help with a legitimate problem?

It seems like some of you like to pick fights and try as hard as you can to prove that you are correct in your assumptions. No matter how many people post their positive experiences, etc.

We all are wasting our time, because we can never convince you that things are not all the way you see them.

Who is this strange masked man who speaks the truth without fear? Pull up a chair and stay awhile. Help us bring light unto the darkness.

Sure, you may know such a person and I'm not saying it isn't possible as there are certainly exceptions to every rule, but statistically speaking, the overwhelming majority of women would prefer not to date a 5'3 man.

This is the one thing the delusional posters on here don't seem be able to grasp. Just because you know a short, bald, overweight, and generally unattractive man doing well with women is not at all indicative of how the average or indeed more short, bald, overweight, and generally attractive men do with women. Your one or two data points mean absolutely nothing when you do the math, and that's assuming that the bald, overweight, and short mystical friend that everyone seems to have on here actually exists.
I am not saying that women, in general, set out to date short guys. What I am saying, and this comes from being a bartender for many years and watching singles in action over the years, as well as friends and co-workers....a short guy isn't doomed to be dateless. It's just not true no matter how you and others want t use it as an excuse. It's delusional of you (and a few others) who keep saying it's impossible.

Get some game...work on your personality....get the chip off your shoulder and develop a sense of humour....and most of all....learn to like yourself. No woman will ever fall for a guy, no matter how tall and handsome...if they don't even like themselves.

I think this is true. The only time that I've had a good-looking woman into me (although I'm not 100% sure) was one who had a boyfriend.

Your post pretty much proves what most of these guys are saying. Namely, that society and women don't give a crap about men and their struggles, and never really have.

Men are all just here to serve you, and when one gets killed, gives up or drops out for whatever the reason, there is a line of useful idiots standing behind him to take his place.

Your survivability and day-to-day comfort is 100% thanks to men past and present, and yet you don't give two squirts about them.

Society really doesn't care about women who can't get dates either... no one cares if plain Jane drops out of dating either or gets killed. In fact, they made jokes about "the lonely cat lady." Self pity is just not taken seriously no matter who is displaying it. I think reason is, it's a problem only you can solve. No amount of anyone else feeling sorry for you can help until you help yourself. No one else can change your life for you. And when you do help yourself, then things get better.

It's funny that what early feminists called oppression, discrimination, and human rights violations, you call "self pity."

Of course, when these are women's issues, they must be addressed right away, when they're men's issues they mean nothing.

You just continued her train of thought, jillabean.

I am calling the idea of "woe is me... society should feel sorry for me because I can't get a date" (no matter if you are male or female) self pity. That is the subject we are talking about isn't it? We aren't talking about anyone being oppressed or discriminated against or having their human rights violated. This isn't a political discussion, we are talking about it being hard to get dates on the relationship board. Getting a date isn't a "right" and someone now being sexually attracted to you isn't discrimination.

And we know your life experience, short and limited as your life has been thus far, represents the totality of dating reality, right?

Proof. Life experience.

Today I was at Starbucks reading and saw a girl who works at the front desk at my gym. She always smiles and says bye to me when I leave the gym. I thought about maybe striking up a conversation with her. But I didn't, because I assumed she has a boyfriend. Sure enough, a guy who was clearly her boyfriend came in and talked to her after an hour or so. (Of course he had male model looks.)

This has happened so many times that I'm glad I don't even bother trying to strike up conversations with attractive women. Any woman who is above average in looks and personality is taken.

Searching for an attractive mate is futile, especially if you're not good looking. I'm not sure why torture myself by thinking that I have a chance with sexy, smart women. They just hop from one good-looking guy to the next one.
lol this is wrong in so many ways. but even if it WERE true.. who cares? girls cheat on their boyfriends all the time
