Nah, I just take breaks when I don't feel like going through the motions. I'm not really looking for dates now, too busy getting my summer activities started up! I enjoy dating once I'm actually there, but I really have to talk myself into not flaking. I hate when women do that to me so I always follow through.
I guess it's not something I base my life around. I'm perfectly happy alone, it's been this way for 30 some years, I'm sure I'll be fine either way.
I haven't really been unsuccessful though.. I think you just need to start talking to everyone and working on yourself. (Workout, find a hobby, stop feeling sorry for yourself, etc)
Are there any men who have given up on dating after no success I have went through over forty rejections with no success so I decided to give up. This is for men only so if you have had success in dating or are a women this isn't for you.
Hey, at least you tried. I haven't. When you go your entire life treated as some kind of leper or disease by almost every girl and later woman that you run into, you generally get the idea that you're not the type of man women are attracted to.
I'd rather keep what little dignity I have than to be rejected in the worst possible manner.
I will say this again for the people who can't read or didn't bother too this is for men with no success in dating.
If people listened to that rule, this thread would have been you talking to a bunch of 16 year olds.
Seriously, suck it up. If you keep going on dates with a variety of different people, and keep having issues, the only constant in the situation is you. Despite pop culture, sometimes you do have to change aspects of yourself in order to find someone who loves you.
An extreme example, but if you're fat, lazy, and boring and have standards of a super model, who's funny, intelligent, and wants to play video games all the time, the odds are, you're probably not going to find anyone.
Figure out what's wrong in your standards or what's wrong in you, or just give up and go away.
The fact that pretty much no one on here falls into the category of guys who gave up for ever should give you your answer that everyone eventually has success. It's just a question of what were they doing wrong before hand and what did they change.
It's still good to be social and nice. If you don't feel like cold approaching 10 women a week, don't. But giving people a smile or talking when you're waiting in line is always good to do. People who are more social are typically happier people.
This. And this is how you meet potential partners--when you least expect it, and you're just being friendly and sociable without expectations.

Some people aren't very social and are happier as loners.
