My dad said to me once "quite a lot of girls do tend to be indifferent towards you"

Tell me why I should not feel like any less of a person because of my dads observation?

This is the truth:

Most people are indifferent towards most people.

Bullcrap! A guy named Leo Durocher said "Nice guys finish last"--or some variation thereof--and he was a total dickhead.

Some nice guys finish well ahead of the field; some nasty guys finish up in prison.

Mr. K, I haven't seen this side of you - you should bring it out more often. That last sentence is a real winner! And the "B" word, added some zest! :thumright:

If you burn down an animal sanctuary, or go around egging orphans, you should definitely be feeling like less of a person.

On the other hand, if some girls are indifferent to you, you should be feeling right at home amongst humanity. Take stock of the people whose opinion you soundly consider worthwhile. Ignore everyone else's.

And keep away from that 'nice guy' crap.

Some day you could bump into Miss Right when you least expect to. I hope it happens for you, soon.
