there is no sense in making inflammatory statements about women - that will not help you, nor will it help anyone else on this forum.
I wasn't talking about
all women. But I have to go by what I have experienced over the too-numerous years, in the mindless, stultifying overgrown country town I failed to escape in the prime of life. And it should be no surprise that I am wary of most young females (NOT all), because of how ALL the ones I've have known have treated me. So it's natural to think
Why would the next one be any different? Despite that, I went through a phase from 2002 to 2006, when I hoped that an attractive lady would be drawn to my not being like most guys, and that it would be an enjoyable experience that compensated adequately for the wasted years before then, but... it didn't work out that way. I didn't face up to the fact that I was still an uneducated loser who failed at high school, and was stuck in some dead-end job that doesn't pay a living wage. Didn't want to face up to the fact that males are not allowed to be different, but have to be "one of the boys" or else - unless possibly getting a free pass through having enough earning power to compensate for that. Dating is a
market, like everything else, regardless of what idealistic horse-plop remained in my head.
i see what you are saying, but there are fixes to many of those isssues. i did not graduate from high school either, but i went to university as a non-matriculated student. i am going to be paying off student loans for the rest of my natural life, but i feel very proud of the accomplishment. i did it myself, and you can also make changes of many kinds should you desire it.
i started in one therapy group when i was 37 years old, and it helped me a great deal with my work-related issues and internal conflicts. these things helped me for ME, and since i have to live inside my own head for this lifetime it is well worth it.
