You say you used to look good, but that's probably not true if losing the muscle really makes you unattractive.

But yet, I have a personality that can pull the greatest A-game in the area and I can only contribute that to confidence. Dropping your standards might mean you need to stop chasing the A+++ girls, but it shouldn't mean that you settle for someone your not happy with. Don't worry, you'll stumble upon someone sometime someday. ;)
Drunk chicks make for really, really BAD Girlfriends.

I know that sounds awful, but that's just the way it is. It's tough to be good at something if you've never had any practice...

PS: I'm not actually suggesting you tell someone it is a practice date.. but lower your standards a bit and date on a casual basis... once you're more comfortable in the whole dating situation you'll find yourself getting more and more social around people.
I like it. You're right. ESPECIALLY about telling them it's a practice date. They are ALL "practice" dates until you're getting married.

Skywalker needs some friends first before he can actually land a g/f. Not ATOT personalities, but real friends. That way he can actually develop some social skills and confidence.

Sounds like you should join a Fraternity! :)

How are the Sigma Chi's reputation on your campus?

It's been said that girls don't care as much about appearances as guys do (in the opposite gender) and that a girl just wants a guy who is a good friend to them, talks to them, and is there for them. It was said you could be an average looking man and get a hot looking woman if you were a good gentleman to her.

Whoever said that was wrong. All the girls that I find really attractive are not that interested in return towards me, infact any girl that I find reasonably attractive doesnt show any signs of interest in return.

How the heck am I supposed to get an attractive wife? What do I lack? I have money, I'm pretty smart, I'm pretty bold, I talk to girls, I try not to act desperate, I've been told that I'm not that bad looking.

(I was told that I was average looking by one girl)

That means yer ugly....sorry

I'm pretty sure nobody ever said that...

By the way, you're an idiot skywalker.

Heh.. a starter girlfriend.

A wise friend of mine once said "Stev0, when you can't get any you just have to lower your standards a bit!" ....

just don't tell your friends :p

God? Are you there God? Surely this is a bad fvcking joke, God. This half witted, illiterate, oblivious, bozo looking fvck can't be posting another YAGT, can he God? Reach down from the clouds and pinch my butt, make sure I'm not dreaming.

How in the hell are you able to make a repost of a thread you've already made 2384924876 times before? God damnit anyways.

EDIT: This thread has nothing to do with irony. It does, however, have everything to do with the OP's stupidity.

i dont feel i view women as objects. Granted I may pick favorites at times, (which is something that you have to do when you are looking for a girl)

If a woman was viewing men the same way that I am viewing women, I would have no problem with it, and infact I would completely understand.
I dont like it when girls put on this fassade that they just dont care about appearances, and will like a guy if he's 'nice'.

Just get an ugly girl, make her feel like a queen, and you are set.

Works every time.

Oh yay! Another Skywalker66 post about girls!! Who would have 'thunk' it? It's quite obvious you will never, ever get a g.f. in this lifetime unless you're paying her by the hour. I think that may be a viable option in your case, as a matter of fact. You can buy the hottest girl that suits your fancy for as long as you can afford her and then you'll have this magical g.f. at your beck and call (until your wallet runs low). You can tell everbody look I have a HOT girlfriend.
Since you only care about her looks and how HOT she is then this plan should suit you. She will laugh at your jokes, go out with you and you can take pictures of how HOT she is. You'll need at least two jobs to do this of course if you're going to have her around for awhile. Maybe she'll give you a discount after awhile when she's feeling a little sorry for you like on your birthday. Best of all you can finally, after so many agonizing, angst ridden months, post how you now have a HOT girlfriend.
Then again you could always try being gay which would be cheaper and easier for you.
