"Walls of text" are generally helpful by way of their content - you read them, and they contain information.

Partaking in drugs does not have to be indicative of or taken as a moral failing - yet the fact remains that drugs are largely ILLEGAL in many instance - particularly the harder ones - and nobody wants to have their house searched or car impounded just cos their partner likes to ride the white pony from time to time. Skirting the law occasionally is a risk people are allowed to take, but asking someone else to go on that ride along with you is a big ask, especially if they don't tread that path themselves, or of they don't know you very well.

Someone who gets addicted to hard drugs doesn't have to possess some type of moral failing for it to happen to them - nor do they have to have a moral failing to engage in the behaviors that addiction can lead to. But hard drugs are a hard burden, and often drive people to do things they wouldn't have normally done, regardless of the true nature of their moral character.

Someone might very well be a great person, and their drug habits in no way negatively affect their daily life - but that still doesn't mean I wanna get pulled over with them as a passenger in my car with pocket full of percocets that they don't have a prescription for.

And anyways, the larger point, relevant to the topic, and every topic like it, is that as much as guys whine about how women only care about looks and money, there's clearly a failure to notice other qualities or traits possessed by the individuals themselves, which might in fact be a greater hinderance than simply "not being sexy enough".

Not just in Jamesy's case, but in general here. Just about every complaint of "women won't date me!" is usually accompanied by a behavioral pattern that the individual is oblivious to and utterly denies having, with a handy dandy excuse to explain things away without having to acknowledge that behavioral issue in any way shape or form.

"Square pegs and round holes" is an interesting way to spin "inappropriate behavior".

I don't know enough about you to be able to answer that but if you think you have then you have

The question I'm asking is if you have ruined yourself then do you want to repair yourself

I want to repair myself but when I go out drinking on the weekends alcohol can be addictive

Surprisingly don't have a hangover

Oh I thought you wanted to change your whole life so you could get a girlfriend. Sorry I misunderstood that part :lol:

I have no advice on the speed of drinking pints
