From what I have seen here on the planet, your have a 2 part problem: 1. You don't have a place that you are comfortable meeting available ladies. 2. Ice breaking - When given an opportunity you lack the confidence, fear the rejection... something to that effect. I have read enough of your posts here to think that you are witty enuf and should do well enough at getting to know, making a girl laugh, and potentially getting a gf and maybe some nookie.
2 suggestions: 1- Get a wingman. A good one. One whose area of expertise is breaking the ice. Could be a her...if available, very effective. You will learn from your wingman and soon be able to do the same. 2- Remember that talking and getting shot down leads to no further contact, no gf, and no action... same as never saying a word to her in the first place. What you got to lose? What if she tells you to **** off, who cares? You get that here all the time. Remember, it is not the holy grail, just the fishy tail. I can't offer too much on the area of finding 'your place', that is a pretty individual thing. Some guys like bars, some like myspace, some like the library...some stick to the workplace (bad idea imo). Good luck either way. |

Houston is an armpit in the summer. Winters are great though.

I haven't been there in about 10 years, but it was horrible then. I doubt it's much better now.

Well. I just got my first rejection of the new year. I have a friend who i get along great with. He knows I'm going to try to lose a lot of weight. I asked him if he would consider dating me if I lost the weight. He said that he prefered short blondes, so no. Eh. He took it as a hypothetical, which I guess it was. I would definitely date him if he wanted to, so it stung a little to know I'll never stand a chance. Oh well. I've decided that I do want to start dating again. If nothing, just to get out and do stuff and meet new people. However, I'm not going to persue anything until after I lose the weight. That will give me some extra motivation. Hopefully, I can find someone who actually prefers brunettes.

Yeah, but I don't mean that to sound like I'm shallow. I just think it would be hard to feel comfortable with someone if I'm busy feeling insecure about how I look. Whether he minds or not, I have to not mind.
