Reasons why you're a bad catch

Post Reply New Topic

I didn't realize my neck twitch would make me a bad catch.

1. I'm a creepy-looking ogre, overweight and don't try to look nice.
2. I don't talk much
3. I'm socially paranoid
4. I really don't like anyone
5. I try to be nice as possible to everyone..
6. but everyone sees through my BS.
7. I have an insanely twisted and jaded sense of humor.
8. I have no philosophical system.
9. I had a girlfriend, a social butterfly, I treated her like s**t and brought her down to my anti-social level, now I don't want a GF cause I'm afraid of doing it again and I've never met a girl who is as homebody as me.

Obese
Unattractive
Too poor to afford a decent place(somewhere where I will not get robbed or mugged weekly and there are no shootings and murders daily) despite working 50 hours a week.
Cynical and Bitter
Lack of Knowledge about what most people I hear discuss on a daily basis.
Inattentive and Unromantic
Do not want cohabiting, marriage, or children.
Do not want to put forth the effort in actually meeting someone because I am lazy and she probably will not like me anyway unless she is needy and desperate.

Sure I can fix some of these, but even though every now and then it seems like it would be nice to have a lady, the effort and time that the women I know personally want on average is just too much. Especially being I'm comfortable alone.

Not complaining though. As long as I have internet forums I'm ok.

Oh, where do I begin?

1. Is usually miserable and depressed.
2. Is misthanthropic.

Wow, no wonder nobody wants me. For all you other Aspies out there with low self-esteem, read this and let the catharsis sink in. I don't think you can do much worse then me.

Girls like sullen guys. It's probably not as bad as you think.

1. I'm bossy and very much like to have things my way
2. Your friends and family will not like me
3. I am not romantic at all
4. I don't like to talk about the relationship or feelings
5. I will make you do all the driving
6. I will try hard to show interest in your hobbies but will never really care
7. I will refuse to display any affection in public
8. If something terrible happens to you, I will try to be supportive but will probably just end up cleaning obsessively

On the upside, we'll probably laugh a lot and have fun hanging out.

4. Lost in my own world
5. No job
6. Blunt and to the point
7. Laugh at inappropriate times (like a child)

Pretty much sums me up
I've paraphrased much of "I am Kira"'s, because so much was the same or similar.
No wonder I can't get or keep a boyfriend.

Not really, because much of what I've said about myself, I don't like in other people, which how I know they won't like me.

Probably the biggest issue is poor social skills, and the fact that I'm unattractive.
