good at advise but bad at the real thing

it is funny how i am good at give advise to people about relationships but yet i myself have never had a girlfriend lol anyone else in that boat?

it's the same for everyone. I give great advise on many things do I fallow it my self that's a different story and some people can give you the wrong advice when they think they are helping you. Like my friend total "player" but he wants a real girlfriend like one he can one day marry but he only knows how to be the player and can attract a lot of girls but non with a real personality for a long term relationship. He has tryed to give me advise on how to get girls and it doesn't work out because 1 though I am handsome or cute I believe I'm not the kind of guy most girls come up to and hit on on a regular basis like how my friend is (he gets hit on at least 2 times a day when he decides to leave the house. I get hit on a couple times a year maybe if that) So his advice doesn't work for me because of the difference in outward appearance though that seems shallow it's true at least in girls heads, they think when he is doing the stuff he calls flirting it's cute. When I do it it just makes me look stupid. 2nd it doesn't work for me is because the girls his kind of flirting attracts are not the ones I want. They are not the ones worth trying to get in a long term relationship with and are usually ditzy, sluty, and fake. I'd say work with what you have and the right girl will come your way. Play to your strengths if you are smart be smart if you are artistic be artistic if you like anime be proud and show it off someone who is interested in the same things is bound to see it and say something to you or you will find someone and a place where there is a lot of people with the same interests as you like cons. Unfortunately for me I only go to one con a year :P maybe 2 next year we will see lol.

I definitely been there. Lately I been wondering if it is at all worth the effort. People are so selfish and dishonest. Time and time again I started friendships that seem to be going well. Until one day without an explanation people just stop talking to you all together. Who knows maybe I expect too much and should just give up on humanity. Their are those that can't find their partner in life. And from talking to people I realize many of the ones that found them break up and sometimes they don't even care if kids are involved. I guess I am disappointed because I am one of those kids.

I gave up on humanity being any bit good a long time ago @endlessknight I never expect anything from anyone and yet I still try to help just about everyone as much as I can. It's worth it just to know even if the world is crap me included at least I'm doing something to try and change it. There is how ever a one for everyone but not everyone finds it at least that's what I've seen I know people that have been together for a long time and show no signs of calling it quiets anytime soon though I must admit it's a lot harder to find the one now a days as a decent dude because it seems like since about the 20's society has been going down hill in america at least. With at least all the girls in my area wanting a SWAG dude I'm just glad that I found a girl that didn't want that (even though I don't know what's up with her lately I'm trying to give her a little space.) surprised even because I'm not willing to turn into that to get some easy chick who I'm gunna be with for a week or a couple months tops.

Yeah, soulxevans we definitely see eye to eye buddy. I often find my self helping people I don't know. Sometimes people I never meet in real life. Even though the world is the way it is, nothing will change who I am. I think what really bugs people is that people have lost common courtesy. Whether they are afraid of confrontations or just don't want to bother with the other person. They never explain themselves and give people closure. Instead they leave them guessing. Not sure if you're following? That's been my experience.

Endlessknight and Soulxevans the three of are all in the same boat, i have not given up on humanity yet (even tho i want to so bad) because i still hope and see in what humanity can do(the good things)

I give good and advice and i follow it too. When we cant follow our own advice its usually just because of cognitive dissonance, or fear. Totally normal. Just gotta learn to beat it.
