Sometimes women will not tell you other things. Things you might need to know. There are other reasons I could be getting turned down and won't hear about.

So far, I have not known if anyone has been attracted to me. I'm the type of person who looks at it like this. A woman should just be honest.

My looks: People frequently tell me that I look young in the face. I don't think I'm ugly.

I rarely frequented clubs. When I did, it was only because a friend got me in for free. Truth is, I don't like clubs. Too loud, too much rowdiness. Too much stuff I'm not into. I like having intelligent conversations. I like talking about things that don't involve the latest dance. I'm just trying to look for places that work for me. Oddly enough, I've had more intelligent conversations in sports bars than at the club.

Something else. I'm not looking to get laid. I've never had sex and I won't until I'm married. That is something I'm sticking to. I like having friends to hang out with. If there is a woman I like and want to date,,there are certain things I'm looking for. Sex is not one of things. Love is first and foremost the rule.

There are, of course, a gazillion reasons why someone would look at your profile and not contact you. Don't waste your time looking at that. It's a useless stat.
I actually have my pics on my profile, but I have limited access as I don't care to have my pic posted abroad on here.

I do think possibly the pics aren't that good. I'm not a picture guy. I tend to blink a lot when someone's about to take my pic.. something subliminal.. I have to concentrate on not blinking lol

I try to get out there more. One reason I go to the places I go to. I might talk to the baristas or the bartenders. Or the persons sitting next to me at the sports bar. In my case, I had no problems making friends when I first started college. Everyone in one place and plenty of time to do thing. I did try to hang out with one of the persons I might after getting a phone number. Nothing came about from it. We live and work far from each other and our schedules just didn't mesh together.

I do need more places to go to or at least a situation where I can make more friends easily.

Be positive, build yourself up.
This is has been my thought. I'm using the time now and applying to either PA or Medical School next cycle.

Do you smile in your OLD pics? So many men don't smile in their photos, which to me just makes them look a little angry or unfriendly.

If you check out my profile here, you'd see I'm smiling. That's if you can see it without befriending me. I have a filter on it.

Probably the issue is I'm smiling to much.. Not natural. you know how that goes.

I've never smiled in any of my profile photos. I kept a neutral look.

Whatever it is the women around here are looking for, it doesn't seem I have it.

Which is fine ultimately.

Count the blessings.. With some of these women, I'm probably better off not getting involved with. Baggage galore.

It gets a bit lonely at times though, but just got to see the bright side of things. Ultimately it's alright. Lose the Hollywood romantic notions held onto since a child. Not everyone will have someone. Just life.

I come across plenty of profiles where women aren't smiling. Actually some where they even look angry. I couldn't resist the one time and messaged the girl bringing it to her attention.

I'm not sure who finds an angry scowl looking face attractive. Certainly I wouldn't think that's a good way to make a first impression.

Like they're angry already with the hypothetical trash that needs taken out. A stern stare for a first impression. Next
