So ladies think there's any hope for me? [View all]

Last edited Thu May 9, 2013, 02:26 AM USA/ET - Edit history (1)

Things going against me:
 
31 year old virgin with a bunch of mental baggage. Depression and anxiety. Never so much as held hands with a girl. Still live at home with parents. Having problems living in the world due to emotional issues. Put on a few extra pounds. Initially probably looking for sex above other things (but that's probably more due to having never played around in my teens and 20s like most do) Not looking for a family.

Things going for me:

Still quite handsome, been told I'm strikingly so when I've lost some weight. Very intelligent. Excellent sense of humour. Awesome personality, I get along with most people. Longer run looking for a life companion, someone to laugh and joke and have fun with. I feel like I'd be a great cuddler and listener.

Any hope you think, or should I just pack my bags and forget about it. I probably will anyway.

Ick.

No one is going to confuse me with a ladies man either but damn that was pitiful.

Hint DUmbass...your politics of entitlement and neediness turn people off.
You no doubt are the biggest sad sack in a room,whining and fussing about everything.
Maybe decide to have some drive and vision instead.

Women are pretty good at smelling "Loser" from a mile away, and run for the hills.  However, a surprising number of them will be attracted if they also smell danger and unpredictability.  So either way, you don't have a snowball's chance in Hell, blurnumbers.

Nah, he says he is a virgin but never what sex he is talking about.   Dude needs to get out there and get some beaver from time to time.

Yes, I have known men like him in the past, they have no idea how to treat a woman, selfish and no mater how intelligent or good looking just put themselves first.

I dated just once this Hunk of malehood to go to a concert.   It was on coming out of the Arena and  long walk to the car I got cold.  I asked my date for his jacket and he replied---No I am cold too.

Another star date, a man I knew well I invited for dinner.  I spent time making a good dinner of stuffed pork chops with all the fixings for us two and he shows up with a male friend that was hungry----

Then there the men that take you to dinner, order a steak for them selves and order you a hamburger.

Come on girls lets talk about the bad dates we had in the past or even now.  The guys can chip in with their experiences from HELL also.

I can't figure out why a "man" who is 31 and still lives with his parents can't find a woman.

9. Sure.
A piece of advice: don't go looking for women for the romantic part, it won't last long. Friendship lasts longer, and you'll be respecting her a lot better by going that route. A true friend accepts you for who you are, so don't obsess to the negative crap so much. You'll get help when you need it, but don't let a person try to fix you. It's controlling and demeaning, and you don't need that.

18. OK, Dude, you've heard from most of the
most charming Ladies of the Lounge. They have been their typically sweet selves.

Here is one (far less than sensitive) guy's take.


1. If you can afford it, get your own place. Now. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200. Move.

2. Start getting some exercise - you'll feel better and will probably lose a few pounds too.

3. Stop telling women all you want to do is get laid. You're not helping yourself, or any other guy, by saying that shit. It probably isn't true anyway, so stop being obsessed about it.

4. Here's a news flash - women like sex too. You obviously do not want to, or do not know how to, lead. Be open to the possibility that there are ladies out there who are willing to lead. But do all of us a favor, and STFU long enough that one of them will take pity on you and boink you till you go blind.

You're welcome.

That is all.

Fairly decent advice...but now the excuses start.

34. Your advise isn't harsh at all...

maybe by DU standards it is. But I've talked with others on other forums and gotten WAY harsher advise than that, some just plainly telling me to "off myself".

1. Yes I do need to move out for my own mental health. I know my life long depression and anxiety issues are not being helped by staying here. However it's not really financially feasible for me to move right now. I've been trying to finish a university diploma or degree so I can get something of a respectable job so I can make the move. However the depression and other issues have turned this from a 3-4 year goal into a 10+ year one.


2. Yes this is important I know. Right now I have very very little motivation to do anything. However in times past I've lost up to 100lbs and felt great. Right now I'm just trying not to be too self destructive. But if and when I start to feel better emotionally I will start loosing weight.

3. I've never told a women anything of the sort. I've never even talked to many women about anything for any length of time. Indeed that's not all I want, and I would never approach a woman in that way. However given I'm 31 and have never experienced sex of any kind I'd by lying if I didn't say that in the short term it's something of a roadblock for me. Long term I want a friend who I can share my life with.

4. I do realize this, thanks.

Thanks for the advise!

OK, so what have we learned?
Locut0s is on the 10+ year plan to finish his 4 year college degree.
Locut0s has no job. No money.
Locut0s is too depressed to lose weight.
Locut0s has no motivation to do anything.

Yet. Locut0s wants sex. like a good progressive he doesn't want a relationship. No he just wants to use a woman for his own selfish desires. This is a huge bonfire with lots of advice Locut0s will never implement.

Conclusion: Locut0s will never get laid. Not even outside the "rape-free zone" at an Occupy encampment.

Even though it took me 8 years to get the 4 year engineering degree, I had a full-time job while going to school and did not live at home with parents. It was difficult to even have time to date but I managed to some. When I finally graduated, I made up for lost time. :-) I finally settled down and got married at age 35.

A bit of honest advice, work on self improvement before trying to start a relationship.  Get your emotional issues under control, find a medication that works, or whatever you need to do to do that.  Exercise and eat well, it will help with the weight and the emotional issues.  Get out of your parents house.  There are circumstances where a reasonable girl won't mind it, but it is a red flag.  If you are not actively helping to care for your parents, or living there on a temporary basis with plans to move out then it doesn't look good.

At 31, most of the women in your dating range are probably starting to at least consider the possibility of a family, so ruling that out is going to narrow your playing field unless you are going for the one night stand crowd.  If your goal is to get laid, go to a bar and start buying drinks for ladies, you'll get lucky eventually.

WTF???? 

He/she/it stays at home to save money to complete college, but home makes he/she/it crazy, so it takes a lot longer to complete college, which prevents he/she/it from moving because it needs a degree for a well paying job, but he/she/it can't complete the degree because home makes he/she/it crazy.

Is it me or does he/she/it not see the root cause of he/she/its problem?

Move the out of Mommy & Daddy's home, get a job, work your way through college, and for heavens sake take personal responsibility of your life.

Things going against me:
 
31 year old virgin with a bunch of mental baggage. Depression and anxiety. Never so much as held hands with a girl. Still live at home with parents. Having problems living in the world due to emotional issues. Put on a few extra pounds. Initially probably looking for sex above other things (but that's probably more due to having never played around in my teens and 20s like most do) Not looking for a family.


The absolute perfect picture, in my mind, of the typical (D)ipshit.  Perfect.

Things going for me:

Still quite handsome, been told I'm strikingly so when I've lost some weight. Very intelligent. Because I parrot failed Marxist pablum  Excellent sense of humour. Awesome personality,   Uh-huh get along with most people. Longer run looking for a life companion, someone to laugh and joke and have fun with. I feel like I'd be a great cuddler and listener.  with a pillow
