Do you really encounter a great number of exceptionally bright, good looking, ethical and interesting men? Recently I have come across one such, the risk director at my former workplace. Very handsome, funny, charming, extremely bright, PhD in psych without being feminineā¦Iām guessing mid-thirties (married with kids). Anyway, so thatās one who meets the āfab guy in every wayā criteria. I also worked with a kid of that sort, but he was gay. A year or so ago I went out with a doctor who is very bright, very fit (a reserve army guy) and while not VERY handsome, pretty good looking. One problem was that he was a little boring. The two dates we went on were LONG. And now, thanks to him, I view my cat as a sociopath because he monologued about brain differences in cats and dogs.

I donāt encounter a lot of people, in general, anymore. When I was taking grad school classes, I did encounter many intelligent, good looking, interesting men. I have no way of knowing if they were all ethical.
Iām not saying that we live in the era of the ubermensch. But there are certainly plenty of well-rounded men out there who donāt necessarily excel in each category, but are probably going to be perceived as the better choice. And it really, really sucks to be boring.[/quote]
Dude, you have read at least as much books as me and that means you have read thousands.
I knew a girl in my twenties, that was a solid ten, if you believe in such a thing and you know why whe will never forget me, even though tens of thousands of men must have hit on her?
Because I found out that she had not read Poo the Bear and next time we met she got a copy.
This cost nothing, but I would bet my live on it that she still has that book and that she treasures it.
Next thing I got her was āMister God, this is Annaā from Finn.
I never spent more than 100 bucks on her and I knew her for a long time, but this is what she wanted, this is what she needed.
You think that women go for all kind of things and that is true, but for some you are the jackpot.
This is what they want, this is real value that you have accumulated without even knowing it, for a lot of them you will be intimitating.
WHich is good by the way.
Why do you seek reasons for them not to want you, that is their problem, not yours and they are amazingly good at it anyway.
And not just in your case.
Oh, and after you have introduced her to something that moves her to tears, like the two books I have just mentioned, you must watch Deuce Bigalow, European Gigolo with her.
If you know you have a brain you dont need to parade it all the time, in fact, you can do hella stupid stuff.
I have an up to date collection of āThe Walking Deadā comics, oh yes, I do.
You are like Cyrano, you think they wont want you because your nose is too big.
He completely fails to see that he is a poet and a fighter and that he is strong and brave and cool as fuck and he totally fails to see it because all he sees is his fucking nose.
Nobody gives a shit about your nose.
