I'm being serious. Who cares if you can't stand him?

At least you never have to worry about a meal or some thug beating you up. Can your CURRENT husband protect/provide for you? Sure he might win you over with personality....


She cared. She said that he was "selfish and controlling and uncaring" and that's why she left him. Good for her! No one, man or woman, should choose to stay in an unhappy or abusive relationship because their partner has money and/or muscles. If any one does stay for those reasons then they too have profound problems.

What century are you living in? Do you not know that women are capable of living their own lives, earning their own money and taking care of themselves?

I have been married twice and in both marriages I was the principal earner. I have never been in a situation where I've had to rely on a man physically to protect me.

That's the stupidest thing I've heard this month.

IS it the stupidest thing you've heard? I think it's more like the most accurate thing.



You're RIGHT, why would one endure torture for reliability/security? I get it. I'm not dumb.

. However, here I am on yet another lonely night on wrong planet typing this out for you now. I'm a kind,caring guy. Guess who the girls are turning me down for? The bodybuilder,wealthy alpha who treats them like crap.



I just don't believe half the things being said

It's not what you say about yourself that counts, it's what you say about other people.

Outgoing guys who are nice to everyone because they're actually nice and aren't just trying to get laid?

Being fat is a big turnoff. Adderall is useful for ADHD treatment and weight loss too since you can easily go on a 1200-1300 calorie per day diet and lose 20-30 pounds in two months and keep it off.

If you are around 280lbs or so, are severely reduced calorie diet would work wonders for you since your body will burn calories very quickly.

Keep a food log for a day as well and post your results. Community input can be good for you to see things you might not normally.

I'll go for guy #4 too... although preferably I'd like guy #8 (I think that's where we're up to) - basically someone like guy #4, but who also has long hair, chainmail and a large collection of multisided dice.

The problem with guys 1-3 is that being given only one significant trait makes them sound very 2D.
Guy #1 I imagine spending his whole life at the gym, regularly drinking protein shakes and having a massive fit if you even suggest buying icecream. He doesn't sound much fun to be with.
Guy #2 actually sounds the most promising because having a nice face is unlikely to be his life's work. He might be a really lovely, normal guy who just happens to be aesthetically pleasing. On the other hand he might spend his time sleeping with lots of girls because he can, and that's just not classy.
Guy #3 is possibly the closest to my boyfriend, except my boyfriend makes no way near that amount, just a lot more than me (I'm a student, it's not hard) and he does well at his job because he loves what he does. It's the fact that he loves his work that makes him sexy, not how much he gets paid for it. A guy who works hard just for the money and expects to be able to buy anything and anyone is really not someone I'd be interested in.

Which is why I call bullshit.


When I was 130 pounds. No girl...and I mean NO girl would touch me. I have a regular looking face too.


Now fast foward years later, I just have a bad job....despite the economy....NO girl will touch me.


I wonder what's next after I get a better job when I am in my late 20s?

The self-pity and loathing in this thread is a big turn off.
Way more so than any of the other things mentioned.
It's nothing about not being an alpha-male with muscles.
Get some self love and confidence. - Being all 'woe is me' is turned the ladies away.

I noticed more girls were interest in me when I went from scrawny 130 toothpick-------->muscular guy


When I get a better job as a respiratory therapist, I expect the next thing will be not owning a house?

Yay for generalising all women :roll:
Maybe you were more confident when you had more muscles.
People are more confident when they have better job prospects.

Well, to be honest. Yes, I was more confident with the muscles.


I think a better job would help with that too. I'm just frustrated. There's this Physicians Assistant at work who I dig who is 35 years old. I have a bad job. I can't get the balls to talk to her because of my bad job. So, I pass by this women every day doing my shitty transport job unable to even talk to her.




So, I guess it is a confidence issue. I've seen other women at my job nurses ect. who I would LOVE to date........but cant because of my job

well, you clearly understand that the problem is internal to you (confidence) and not external (women's choices), so please stop blaming us and generalizing about us. those kind of statmenets about women start unnecessary flame wars and leave us with little reason to sympathize.
