Christ.Try being a woman for awhile and you will see why so many have self-esteem issues pertaining to their looks. Just last week I was standing in line at an ATM machine and the guy behind said to me, "Nice ass but your tits could be bigger," right out of the fucking blue like that. Then he stood there with a smug look on his face as if he was waiting for a response. I mean christ, the stupid jackass wasn't even remotely in my league to begin with and I wouldn't have given him a second look in any situation, and here he was standing there judging me.
i don't know anyone who doesnt have some kind of baggage male or female =( some are just more extreme then others and you take the good with the bad cause that makes the relationship OMGIAMRETARDEDCAUSEALOTISTWOWORDS stronger if you can stick by each other thru itPilsburry wrote:I know and I don't blame a kid from a messed up home for having "issues", I'd just prefer the woman I eventually end up with is free of that kind of emotional baggage.
This is about the end-all statement right here. While the "worshipping" routine may work for some, it's by no means recommended for every date you're on. If you treat your date like they are someone you are interested in getting to know, and not someone you're interested into conning into bed that night, you'll find yourself getting much further in the scheme of things.Chidoro wrote:Treat someone your interested in like a date instead of a friend and you'll probably get a date out of it.
I don't think your far off, but I know my reasons for talking to a woman are sincere. My issue is mainly with the fact I am always wondering if I'm going to say something stupid or maybe they are thinking "god I wish this loser would get the fuck away from me" but they can't say it because they are trying to be nice.Xyphir wrote:I read an interesting idea just yesterday and thought it might help with this situation. It seems as though you're sufferening from some self-esteem issues which manifests itself by creating anxiety. It might be presumptious to jump to this conclusion, so take my diagnosis with a grain of salt.
One solution might be the idea of sincere motivation as an antitode to anxiety. Realize that your motivation to talk to someone is to find out more about them and essentially to connect with someone. If you understand deep down that your motives for approaching someone are sincere then your level of anxiety will decrease, making it easier to approach someone and strike up a conversation and ultimately ask them out.

I'll be 24 in 2 weeks, I'm a well paid intelligent guy who has never been disrespectful or hurtful to a woman, and I've never gotten to first base. I've always been content without having a gf, working on my career and myself, and though I do desire the physical interaction with a woman, I'm far too passive to get anywhere.
