Single Tropers Club

I think I've discovered why I make creepy sex jokes.

The reason is that I have basically no charisma and the only way to even come close to having a girlfriend is to live vicariously through other people.

I can't tell if this is going to lead into another joke or if you're being legitimately introspective.

No, this is legitimate introspection.

and that's why charisma should not be your irl dump stat

I see. Well in that case, i'm sorry. -pats your back-.

Honestly, I could probably get a girlfriend if I grew the balls to ask a girl out. But that won't happen for a long while.

Thanks, I guess.

I must revoke my single card now, but i will most likely be back.

Hey. Newly permanent.

No, newly reissued. Or reactivated. Or something.

Not permanent. Just taking a vacation here. Or something. Trust me, if you had someone before, you'll have someone again.

Hopey, you won't be here forever. That just isn't possible.

Please. I have no female friends who I could feasibly date. If I did conventional dating, nobody would want a guy who is shy and awkward and broken.

I would just see that as a temporary setback. Plenty of people would be willing to look past that for the great guy inside all of it.

Then why am I still here?

You've probably just not found someone willing to look past it. But there's gotta be one out there. If I can do it, anyone can, that's for sure.

-raises hand- I look past that stuff. I'm dating somebody who has severe trust problems and is very shy. But I really, really like her. Guys, really, you do have a chance.

Hi. Haven't posted in here before.

I'm permanently single and likely always will be.

Maybe you look past that stuff, but the thing is, the vast majority really don't, and even if they do, most people don't tend to look past that stuff until they actually get to know the person (so if you don't already know that person, chances are nil).

From what I've seen most people do tend to end up going out with folk they already know pretty well. The whole 'pick a random punter and ask them out' thing seems to be restricted to TV.

Well that doesn't really help when nobody you know shows even a hint of being interested in you in that way or they're all already dating someone else.

0dd, I get the feeling that you're speaking from experience.

I wonder what would give you that idea.

On a similar note, a friend and coworker I'm interested in told me the other day that she sees me as being like a girlfriend to her, and I'm really not sure how to feel about that.

My main issue is everyone, and I mean literally EVERYONE is already taken in advance. Everywhere I go, there seems to be no such thing as a single female, and to be blunt I wouldn't be surprised if some of them made up boyfriends just to dismiss me. I don't blame them though, I can't even accept my face.

People sure do like to pair up quickly.
