[Relationship Thread] Why won't it ever work out for me?

You work with computers, though, right?

 

Sounds like you just waited too long to pounce on this one.

Don't worry about it, you're a great guy and are bound to wind up with a great woman.

 

That has always been my ultimate fear.

 

3 Things

1. The older you are, the better your chances. Women's clocks run faster than yours. Their clocks are like dog years. You are at your peak. Late 20's, early 30's, women get tired of dating losers and are beginning to look long term. They start choosing their mates more carefully.

2. Don't look too hard. At this moment, you wish the perfect person would walk right up and make you forget about this girl. That's what all people who break up feel. It never works out that way. You have to just let it happen.

3. Get a new hobby and focus your energy on something productive. Learn a new skill. It may allow you to meet new and interesting people - increasing your odds of meeting new women. It may also make you more marketable professionally or help you with your dating. For example, learn to cook so that when you do meet someone great, you can impress them.

If none of those work, go rent some p*rn or hang out with people with small penises so you can boost your self esteem.

And don't slouch. Bad posture's a killer.

 

i know exactly how you feel...im still looking for the answers myself, and its becoming more apparent with every passing day that what i envision as the ultimate happiness does not actually exist. i just try to keep my mind off of it by focusing on other things, but the pain keeps resurfacing for me one way or another. the best thing to do is to keep a positive attitude, keep trying, and pray that one day the big guy upstairs shows some mercy. best of luck

 

pretty much same. But whatever...it comes and goes. Just gotta be satisfied being single.. if something else happens, great. otherwise, oh well..

 

Why do you guys hate being single so much? I'm in an LTR and I love it, but sometimes i miss those being single days. I see no point in rushing to find a GF, it will come in time. Be picky and don't settle.

 

It seems like you waited to long and entered the friend zone. You don't put it on the line like that until you know what the answer is.

 

Feeling unconfident might be the worst result that comes out of this. You can approach women with a different attitude than you normally act and see how that works out.

Failure's a feeling people avoid, but other than that, you have everything to gain and nothing to lose.

 

There really is no "friend zone", a chick pretty much decides within the first hour of meeting you whether she'll be interested or not. Theres a small window to change her opinion in the next few weeks, after the initial sparks and no move made, you don't have the confidence and thus end up in a "friend zone" of your own construction.

 

V,

You sound like a great guy, if she is not the right one for you, then move on.....you will find the one......lightning strikes when you are least expecting it.

Good luck to you bro, at 26, you got plenty of time, I was 30 before I married.

Enjoy the single life, and before you know it, you will be blindsided.

Maybe Size does matter.

 

Hispanic?

 

Sounds like to me that you are way too much of a pushover. You are getting put in the friendship area because you are thinking way too much and not following your heart. Don’t tell women your feeling show her. Outside of a girl being in marriage, you should never hold your feeling back if you feel there is a connection. Don’t be scared to give your heart to women and be rejected because the sooner you know the better.

 

Vengeance,

Hey bud, don't look so hard to find a girl. I have always found that when you aren't looking, you will find. Also, don't settle. I got married for all the wrong reasons, and now I am divorced.

It just isn't worth it.

 

Dont ever settle for a girl...if something bugs you about someone at the beginning, that little something is only gonna exponentially grow as time goes on.

Be picky and dont sell yourself short for anyone. Dont try to get a girlfriend, it'll eventually fall in your lap.
