What am I not getting? You obviously know that decades of acting desperate didn't work. At any rate I'm glad you found someone.

1. Thank you for that sentiment at the end.
2. I was not "acting" desperate, it was for real.
3. Yes, acting/being desperate does not work.
4. You took my buy/sell analogy too literally. I suppose I should expect that on this board. That is one aspie trait I don't seem to have - I'm actually comfortable with metaphors and comparisons. I need to remember where I am (wrongplanet).
5. What you're not getting is that I am simply telling women that their selection criteria for men are flawed. If they automatically reject desperate looking men, they will reject some good and some bad. Also, if they accept men on confidence alone, they will wind up with some good and some bad. Those are lousy results, and therefore flawed criteria, if the goal of women is to screen out bad men and find good ones.
I know I will not educate any women despite my solid logic here. I'm just perseverating in a futile attempt.

I am a 35-year-old virgin, and proud of it. In fact, since I'm still single, I'm offended if anyone suggests otherwise.

I'd begun to think that I was the only virgin left in this country, but reading this thread has made me feel less alone.

I believe in waiting for marriage, but at this point I may be willing to settle for a long-term monagamous relationship (I'm weakening).

I can't imagine "sleeping around". I've never understood how people can be that intimate with each other in casual relationships or sometimes even with complete strangers! I also can't understand how anyone could be that intimate with more than one person concurrently.

A man would have to be very special for me to have sex with him. Casual sex is not an option.

Same here, but until March I'll be 21.

Even though most of you it's hard to find someone to date. But for me it's impossible because I love Genderqueered Girls.

20 seems the good age to be a virgin. 20 year old virgins ahoy!

We should start our own group or something (lol) :lol:

Part of the male perspective, and/or aspie male perspective, which obviously differs greatly from what I'm hearing from Orbyss:
Why is so-called "desperation" so scary?
Men think of it like commerce, in a way. You, as a woman, have something to sell: your love, your attention, and yes, sex...to a man who is interesting and will treat you well.
A "desperate" man is simply a very motivated buyer.
Where else in life does a reasonable seller flee from a motivated buyer?
What is so terrible about this "desperation"?
I'm a very good guy to get with, as my new girlfriend is discovering. I was a good guy for all those decades that I radiated desperation, and all of those women who ran for the hills missed out.
It sounds like there are a lot of good guys like me out there still being ignored.
And a mountain of evidence that all kinds of bad guys who mastered the art of manipulation have no trouble getting laid or into relationships that the women wind up regretting.
In light of this evidence, has it occurred to any women that their evaluation process could be flawed?
Orbyss?

The buyer/seller analogy is a good one, but I've always heard it the other way around. The woman is the buyer. She is constantly hit with a barrage of advertisers who all want her business. The desperate guy would be a high-pressure salesman who would follow you around the store wanting you to buy something. Very annoying.

There are many similar products are out on the market. However, the guy who sells it the best and makes the buyer feel most comfortable about buying their product usually makes the sale. Even if it's a lower quality product.

I am 45 (forty five)...........and STILL One?? Guess I've never found the ideal Woman? I do have 'Old-Fashioned' values & morals, but I'm certainly not after a 'Miss Perfect' etc Infact I like the Simple things in life, and quite the opposite of what 'Models' are like?

I suppose haha. I do live in the USA. In the USA, you're supposed to lose your virginity by age thirteen at least. I've never even kissed a girl. I'm too nice.

Lose it by THIRTEEN?!

What the hell! That's barly reaching puberty! I don't think guys can have sex so young! And I am sure as hell that no one is emotionally developed enough by that age to handle sex.

Most people I know wait till at least 17 before even considering becoming sexually active.
