Atlguy, I have been following your posts since you first posted in this forum back in February 2011. You have shared many things about yourself including your divorce and difficulties finding a job. The thread that ties all your posts together is one of a defeatist, negative attitude. I'm sorry you don't like my summation but that's the reality. I understand times have been tough for you and we quite often only post the depressing stuff on forums because they can be kind of cathartic. But if you are like this in real life you really need to look at how you are relating to women.

Um, a little harsh, don't ya think?

So, he's been going through a tough time for the last few years. He's not alone. And yes, he probably finds that it helps to write about it and get feedback from others. Totally normal.

You've never gone through a difficult period in your life?

My issue, aside from being in an awful city is I'm not the kind of guy who's very outgoing and approaches random women. Add to that I'm a "nice guy", and its a losing situation. Anyway, to stay on topic here, I am not a fan of the hookup culture, and hate casual dating. I just want to be married with a family and be done with dating forever.
Bingo!

Come back to me when you're 5'6 (my height) and let me know how you're doing.
