For a while I fantasized about tracking the guy down and beating him with a bat, to "destroy something beautiful" as was said in Fight Club. Eventually though I realized the whore wasn't worth it, and I could do better. I realized that she was going nowhere, working for the government, bound to get fat and have ugly kids, and with my work as a filmmaker, I was on a course to do better things than she could ever dream of doing in her life.
Uhh, no offense, but it sounds to me like you're the one "reeking with douchebag" in this scenario... you're getting all condescending with her job, and you loudly proclaim that this "whore" isn't "going anywhere in life". While that may actually be the case, your presentation of the situation is very self-centered and narcissistic...

Yes - it's called "missing the boat". Or that thing about when opportunity comes knocking... If you don't grab up something good someone else will come along and take it. You can't take years to get everything right and then think the person is going to wait around for you. That is unreasonable. I knew guys who seemed sit there quietly looking at me with big eyes (now that I look back I realized they were interested) but they never made a move, so I did - in the direction of another person who would at least engage with me. I've been on both sides of the situation. Both suck.
Two things:
1) Why start a relationship before you're certain? It's impossible to get to know someone that quickly, and getting into a relationship with someone that you haven't had the benefit of at least knowing for some time is one of the dumbest ideas i've ever heard. \
2) some men, myself included, just on principle don't talk to women we don't know (in many cases, the men as well), due to the possible negative repercussions...
