You want a response, kid?
Okay. Here is a response.
Welcome to Testosterone Nation, a website celebrating the hormone that makes life worth living. The magic molecule that separates the Men from the little boys, the Vixens from the little girls, and the Caballeros from the peons.
You, sir, have stumbled onto a golden opportunity to rub elbows with some of the mightiest mortals on the Internet. And how have you chosen to make your entrance? Please take a moment to read your first and second posts on this site. They drip… nay ooze with negativity, self-doubt and defeatism.
“its practically impossible to get a date outside of your social circle”
“No one ever gave a shit about me”
“I was only worth talking to when no one with higher social value was around”
“i’ve hardly ever bothered asking any girls out”
“i was always afraid of being cheated on for not being popular enough.”
“suffering from depression”
“pretty much friendless”
“I don’t have really much else to live for”
“limited life experiences”
“Hopefully going back to college … might make a difference … but i doubt it”
Boo hoo hoo.
Listen, Prophet of Doom, first of all, I gotta tell you, your choice of username is pathetically appropriate. You have written a self-fulfilling life prophecy if you really believe all the negative crap you have written about yourself. Elsewhere on this thread someone mentioned that the number one thing a woman… or a man, for that matter … is attracted to is confidence.
You strike me as someone who has not developed this vital attribute. No wonder you’ve never gotten a date. If you were a young woman, and someone like you asked you out, would you want to go out with you?
Sorry if I sound harsh, but for Christ’s sake, you are twenty-six years old. You are presumably healthy, reasonably wealthy (at least not desperately poor) and not hideous. You are at a college surrounded by 19 and 20 year old women in the Pacific Northwest of North America, breeding ground of some of the best women on the planet. What I would not give to be in your shoes right now.
You have a choice, Prophet of Doom. You can continue down the dark, lonely path you have been hacking for yourself in the wilderness, or you can choose a different one. It may not seem to you now like you have a choice, limited life experiences, no friends, no social network, and all that, but you DO. Make new friends. Acquire new skills. Create experiences.
Talk to women. Talk to them until they don’t scare you anymore. Ask some girls out. Who cares if they say no? Get used to being rejected. It will happen. Make it happen so often that it no longer bothers you. Understand from the outset that if you approach 100 women, maybe fifty will ignore you. Of the fifty that talk to you, twenty will go out with you. Of those twenty, five will sleep with you. And of those five, one will be worth staying with.
But if you never talk to anyone, your odds of finding that someone worth being with are exactly zero.
Your choice.
And it’s none of my business, probably, but you might think about changing that username. Prophets of doom generally don’t get any decent women.
Cheers.
