Growing up, I read lots of books on dating because I've always struggled in dating horrendously. I wanted to get decent at it so badly so I read and I read. I didn't even get my first kiss until 20 and I was a virgin until 23.
Well, I'm 26 and I've accomplished every single thing the books told me to do
- I would say I'm at least good looking, maybe even very good looking. I get compliments almost on a daily basis from friends, relatives/wives/girlfriends of friends, random strangers at a bars, my clients at work who adore me, etc... it just doesn't end.
- very fit - resemble a bodybuilder. Also dress very sharp - get compliments 24-7 on how I dress as well.
- I make around 170-180K - have all the material things you could want, nice house, fancy luxury sports car. I'm better off by miles than anybody else I know who is under 30. I'm talking miles and miles because I live in a very reasonable cost area. I'm also very grateful for this as I was poor growing up.
- I have a fantastic lifestyle, pretty much do whatever the hell I want - nice restaurants, concerts, sports events, etc... I love my life. I have wonderful friends
- I'm plenty intelligent - have a college degree, can hold a good conversation on anything
- I'm very easy to get along with. I've had friends from every walk of life - I can make almost anybody feel comfortable around me.
The point of the thread is not to brag about anything, it's that I feel like I'm better than the overwhelming majority of men in almost every subcategory yet i find dating to be absolutely impossible. I've never had a girlfriend, even though that's all I've wanted for the last 10 years...I don't even care about just getting laid. I want a good high quality girlfriend.
My problem is that the women sort of in my league - decent looking, decent shape, close to my age range - never ever ever give me any signs of interest or make it somewhat easy for me to talk to them. Whenever I see somebody I like, there's 5,000 obstacles in the way and it's so damn hard for me to overcome them. I went out last night and there was this super cute girl with that thicker athletic bodytype that I have who was out with a friend of a friend but trying to engage her was so damn hard because of the obstacles in the way.
I just don't know guys. I feel that I'm going to die alone. I'm not willing to settle for someone morbidly obese and the halfway decent looking women my age never want anything to do with me. The weird thing is that they're the only people who act that way - everybody else absolutely adores me - straight men, gay men, older people, younger people. I get way more compliments and attention from gay men than women for example. It's just baffling.
I feel your pain I'm in the same boat as you in a number of ways I'm just not loaded like you are lol, and I'm older than you. You might have a social network problem like I do which is leading you to not encounter women in your league. I am trying to join more clubs with quality women and I've been trying harder at the gym which in my opinion is where higher quality women are. It's been tough so far though and gets a little depressing in the summer when you want someone to do things with. All in all I would refuse to settle. I know I never will I'll die alone first.

women at the gym are ****ing fantastic but that's a very very hard avenue to get anything done. The women are very defensive there
Honestly you write pretty boring, one can only take so much "me,me,me" and "I, I, I am the best at".
only for the purpose of the thread sir
I'm actually plenty fun in real life, cracking jokes and teasing people all the time

If you have all these compliments and admirers doing so 24/7 when do you sleep?
dude, you think i'm exaggerating, it's like a 24-7 thing. I almost feel like a celebrity sometimes
I was at a bar last thursday and this big black girl wouldn't stop complementing me and my friends. She said that we looked like an Abercrombie shoot.
Another girl - a very cute one actually - said that me and my friends were all extremely handsome and great singers. (we were at a Karaoke Bar)
I've grown to become a huge people's person. I love most people I come across because everybody is so nice to me
