How are you still single???? Hordes of females would be throwing themselves at you.
I don't understand it either.
Because having looks and a decent car doesn't guarantee you a girlfriend. (not the 1-night stand types)
I've seen guys that look not EVEN near an ideal stud, walking around with a smoking hot girlfriend.
Life is crazy, folks.

Look beyond the good looks and the niceness of his car...
Making presumptions here, but:
I see him as healthy, independent, stable good income job, handsome, the way his vehicle is well-maintained indicates he keeps other things in his life well-maintained too. To be able to achieve where he is, he likely also has pretty good social skills.
It's unusual to see somebody with these aspects, who does want somebody, partnerless.
So I'd really love this guy to tell us his back story which has caused his troubles with women, because I'm sure it would be very interesting, to me and to many others on this forum.

You obviously have no clue how the average female mind works.

As I've been away for a long while, better update this:
I'm 31 years old, male, from belgium. I have lived in 6 foreign countries the last 8 years and am now temporarily (at least a few years probably) back in Belgium. In the future I hope to move to Israel, but this may never happen due to not having jewish background. So for now, it's Belgium.
I've had erotophobia and OCD since age 16 but lately have put more and more effords into trying to push it away, as the desire for romance has been always there but was "on hold". So I decided now to not let OCD take away the chance to experience love.
Short description:
- 31 years old
- living in Belgium
- speaking Dutch, French, English, German, tiny bit of Spanish. I can read the Hebrew alphabet too.
- currently on sick leave for severe OCD but working on my recovery and meanwhile trying to get my poetry further towards a larger audience. Previously did customer support jobs mainly.
- relatively long hair ; light brown but usually dyed black. I like to dress eccentrically and am very attached to my eyeliner. I'm not shy to show my feminin side and dislike oldfashioned norms such as dress codes anyway.
- blue eyes
- 1m80 tall
- strictly vegetarian, trying to abstain from cheese and butter too.
- strictly abstaining from alcohol, cigarettes, drugs.
- passions: music and analysing songs, writing poetry on life within the autism spectrum and with OCD, performing my poetry on stage, travelling, watching sports + actively swimming in summer season, educating myself on other cultures and counter filosophies, watching documentaries, writing articles for my blog
- favourite bands: Echo & The Bunnymen, Sophya, The God Machine, The Smiths, Sophia, Orphaned Land, Manic Street Preachers, Rush, Placebo, A Perfect Circle, Patti Smith, Heather Nova, Natacha Atlas, Indochine, KLF, Bauhaus, ... (Sophya and Sophia are NOT the same bands)
- favourite films: Mozart & The Whale, Rosetta, Lola rennt, The Magdalene Sisters, Kissed (Canadian film from nineties), The Exorcist, Noi Albinoi, ...
- favourite literature: travel guides, We (Jevgeni Zamjatin), music biographies and political literature
- favourite places: Istanbul, Barcelona, Belfast, Liverpool, Berlin, brussels, Ghent, Salzburg, Venice, Paris
OK, what am I looking for? A female who is...
- aged 24 to 33
- living at a managable distance from Brussels or wanting to travel to give love a chance
- does not want any children
- passion for arts (mainly poetry and music) and travelling is a huge bonus
- finds loyalty, supporting each other in difficult times, ... very important
- is of the romantic type (likes to cuddle, kiss tenderly, sleep in each others arms, ... Sex is of less importance)
- prefers long chats in cosy places rather than going out into the classic nightlife or organising parties
- is willing to make time available to see each other very often, so that we can get to know each other truly (I believe long gaps between meetings reduce the chances a lot) ; in other words: dedicated to give things a real chance
- is eccentric or doesn't mind that her partner is
I realise a thread of this many pages and with people from all over the world is likely to result in nothing ; but then I'm a hopeful person and trying doesn't do harm.

this list seems like a great idea for people to meet up with someone from the group. The only problem is, it's 225 pages long! Quite a few pages of info to get through if you're looking for a match.
Is there any possibility of creating separate threads - Females looking for Males, Males looking for Females, Females looking for Females, etc...? Having separate threads for locations might help, too? Chances are, someone from MS would be looking for someone in that state vs. say, someone in Australia - although if there is an interest, they could always look on that thread. Bad idea?
People have made threads for their regions and they get bumped every now and again. Making a sticky with links to all the regions seems like an efficient way of dealing with it so people can bump their region thread as and when. If you think you have an idea for a popular niche for oddbods then make your own thread and keep it active
There was a UK version and it seemed to do quite well til it faded into the abyss.
