You mean they're not going to be wondering about what it would be like if they were 30 years younger?

Yeah, right. He must realise that a later-age "relationship" cannot be what a relationship should be about. I didn't get together with someone until the age of 35, and was so scarred and embittered by then, that no-one and nothing can compensate for the damage that has been done. He must feel downright cheated.

I fear the same scarring might happen to me. Even if it happens tomorrow, at 24, I might feel slightly damaged. I don't want to imagine it starting at 35, let alone 60. But I'll take 35, and even 60 {sigh} over the alternative.

Great; some more whiny BS about guys thinking that life sucks because they can't get laid. Sex is a privilege. No one has the right to another person's body.

Guys like this need to stop feeling sorry for their selves and either go pay a prostitute or stop being a whiny b.

I'm also so tired of most of the relationship-less guys on WP acting like women are horirble because we won't take a second look at them. Hello, maybe if you get off the internet for a few minutes, take a shower, stop being desperate, stop acting like we owe you something, stop acting like the world owes you something, then maybe we will be interested in you. Oh, its also funny to hear about guys complaining that they can't talk to women. Most of them are capable of opening their mouths and speaking, and if they would only get offline or stop playing xbox for a few hours, they could go out and actually get better at this skill. It isn't like we speak an alien language or something, Just be yourself, unless you're a perv!

Here's a little secret key in the form of text. Work with what you got, and stop magnifying what you don't have. I'm sure most average NON-SHALLOW women don't expect you to go to college or to get rich. Most guys don't want to suck up their pride and go for the women that they actually have a chance with. Its true. Even a lot of ugly or fat guys don't want women who are as big or as ugly as them. This is another reason why I think a lot of guys on here "can't" get laid.

Anyways; rant has ended. How many more threads will there be today with guys complaining about the opposite sex??


OMG THANK YOU!! !! !! !
That is the smartest thing i've heard here...ever!
I can say with pride that I talk with people, and do normal social stuff, do I have the best luck? Not really, but I still try, and thats all one can do.
Be yourself and let others see you're not a weird person, and try to find common grounds with people.
Even if you only get a friend out of it, thats something you didn't have before

but I doubt any of you are going to read this, being so stuck in your faggy sorrow towers

I agree with Stellar's post on the first page. Granted, I've done a little whining on here myself but this is ridiculous. At least I'm taking action to end my loneliness.

Guys: Women don't owe you anything. Stop acting like you do. It's really annoying. :evil:
Women: Guys don't owe us anything either. No one is entitled to jack s**t, kay? You gotta earn everything in life, especially in love. You gotta get rejected, kicked down a few times before you're mature enough to handle a real relationship.

*waits to see which guy flames her first* :lol:

Oh lol. I was making light of what happens whenever I post something like this in the Love and Dating section: any of three WP users would flame me for my opinions because I'm a girl or some other stupid reason.

I have no idea what they would be wondering. They are not a doddery old couple. 60 these days is not the same as 60 long ago. And he is not a bitter person. He seems very greatful.

I dont go around going, "if only that happend when i was 20 not now", how very different from me you think.

another thing is about 1/3 of my relatives died spinsters/bacholors so its quite common in my family and my uncle would not have seen that lifestyle as terribly unusual.

I feel that girls who want casual sex are of wrong type for me. Nerdy girls either do not want it or they have so much boys to choose from that it is very unlikely they would pick me. And they probably prefer finding people from some social acitivities instead of from the internet. For me it is always behind a big struggle to find my way to any social activity and to meet new people.

(It is of course simplification to say that right girls are "nerdy" but I use this word for now since the issue itself is very complex. I feel that word at least captures something essential anyhow)

I feel like losing my mind... I guess I should just visit some prostitute before I find my hands unconsciously finding their way on some nearby girl's bottom. Though I have very little money at the moment but with the help of my credit card I would have enough. And I keep thinking if it would be really worth of it. That's hard to estimate.

you mean they actually have sex at their age? my hydraulics are already starting to get leaky, for which a vasodilator is the only palliative solution, and i am not yet your uncle's age. a relationship sans sex is, IMHO more trouble than it is worth, especially after a decades-long deprivation. sex is a necessary glue to hold a loving couple together.

Im not going to ask him, I might have aspergers but Im not that tactless.

I asked my mum about peoples negative reaction to my uncles story as I just find it so positive and hopeful, and she said 'they are obviously single as they are bitter and negative people'.

Nope. They're just realists, that's all. And eventually finding someone you have a rapport with, at some later age, does NOT make everything all right.

for me, it would make everything ok as long as there was decent sex.

The story about your uncle is kinda sweet. If he is happy with it more power to him. How old is the woman he with? As for the crass aspect, there are plenty of pills for that.
