I don't like it when people preach to say that people are losers if they are shy or introverted - these people are beautiful to be who THEY are. Let's not try to change people. People are their own unique individuals.
No one is better than anyone else.
Nice guys do not finish last - social media shoves all that in your face.
There is no such thing as competition.

Everyone is equal, and everyone deserves happiness - no one is better than anyone else or deserves to be in a relationship more or whatever, so let's not flame people for being shy, or not having a lot of social confidence - far too 2 dimensional.

We are equal - we are children of the Earth. We are all absolutely equal.

Look! Fairies riding unicorns! :roll:

Actually, it can be statistically proven that nice guys do, in fact, finish last. Mostly out of consideration for their partners. :wink:

As long as they're genuinely nice and not the misogynistic, manipulative, and dishonest creeps that so often call themselves "Nice Guys".

If everyone is equal how is it possible for everyone to be unique? :lol:

Of course - the world is a mess.
People messing others around, or being harsh because they somehow feel superior for not having social difficulties or having better luck or more success in the dating world, or any world for that matter, are feeling falsely transcendant.
We are equal children of the Earth.

Semantics. The word equal has many different meanings. Equal opportunities do not require equal aptitudes or enthusiasms or qualities or whatever. :wink:

I am shy and introverted until I get to know people better. Whats more, I am a nice guy. I am definitely not a loser. I have had my share of setbacks in my life because of autism, but that does not make me less than another person. People should not confuse shyness, quietness, and politeness with weakness. One of my favorite hobbies is training military people in hand to hand combat. :twisted:

And the REALLY good ones help their partners get around the track a couple of times before they finish.

If everyone is equal, I don't matter. If Sparrowrose = anyone else, then anyone else can be substituted in my place an no one will miss me because the substitute is equal to me.

So you think equality = sameness?
