Dating is tough lol.

Eggs, I understand. I think I'm turning a new leaf and as such, I'm blunt, but not aggressively so. Dude was being awakward and the way he treats females here is not exactly great, but he's honest and I can respect that. Also, to much red wine tonight, but I have more than a silicon doll to turn to tonight. Which by the way, does not feel like silicon. Thank the gods. You can't beat real, warm, moist human flesh.XD

@Egg, I appreciate people who are being frank with their opinion, and I admit I didn't read all their arguments earlier. However, now that you already pointed out their problem, I think there isn't much point in continuing this... @Egg & IIIuminius, let's call it a stop here, shall we?

I never really dated before actually...like go out on dates and see if the person is compatible. Usually anyone I have been in a relationship with was a friend for a while before we started. Idk maybe I like being friends and slowly developing feelings like an anime xD!

oh god where do i start. for me im an 19 year old. who does not know how to drive. my mom is a teacher and navy vet so she does not get paid much, i had to quit my job because of school, i have a lot of mood disorders and im autistic and i like doing dangerous things just because i can i.e working with glowing metal, riding rollercosters shooting my compound bow, and playing goalie. my advice for you dude is do what i do give up and focus on yourself. i cant due to obligations i made i.e team, and hobbies

@Akane Wakuraba: Fine, I'll drop it. @everyone else: My first post means the opposite while also trying to give a partial solution to someone while also sharing my pain. Me helping in other words.

I totally get where you are coming from. Being lonely is an awful feeling. I have been lonely being single and even worse whilst with somebody. I think my comments are more general as I see a pattern of people putting to much pressure on themselves to find or be in relationships. Maybe someone will come along, maybe not. I'm not saying we should sit around waiting for fate to happen. If only it was that easy. Basically you asked if you should improve yourself before you look for a relationship and I was saying yes as you should always put yourself first anyway. I didn't mean never look again or wait for it to happen. I was trying to be positive because sometimes we meet people unexpectedly. Yes, it is cheesy and doesn't always happen but there isn't anything wrong with being confident and positive about stuff.

@lenny. yes that makes sense. thank you for the clarification. :) @the others. we all have our oddities. lets not judge each other too harshly. everyone group hug and lets be friends again. ^^

No thanks, my opinions still stand. The kid needs a harsh dose of reality to wake him up from his sheer ignorance. I'll drop it from here, but after going through some of his postings, here and elsewhere, I already can tell you him and I are going to be best friends...

@Benedict I was being light and slightly unserious in my wording. I dont think you'd ever be "best friends" but I would hope that an effort would be made to be civil, and not going so far to give someone "a harsh dose of reality" that it ends up looking more like something worse.

By speaking clearly and being direct, you can challenge the ideals and beliefs a person has in an attempt to show them how foolish they are acting. On that note though, the way he speaks, specifically towards women, is deserving of somebody stepping up to him.
