    because prince charming is a myth

    It's actually because women's idea of prince charming is a myth.

    I have 2 friends that are single, well educated, have great jobs and are constantly told by women "you're not my type"....

    WTF more do you want? The guys are smart, decent looking, can provide financial and emotional support but do not have 6 pack abs. They would love nothing more than to partner with someone and travel, buy a big house and have the dream...but women are always looking for "something else".


    and they probably don't live anywhere near ME. lol :grumble:

    from personal experience and from reading this there are a lot of people who say that right person will come along. I don't believe this at all, mostly because people change and everybody has their own set of personal experiences as well. What exactly is the right person anyway? I do however know many who have 'settled' only to figure out they were compatible with somebody after all

    no idea how to date and 30, not attractive or smart, not good at video games despite playing them a lot, hate going to bars, and I am an extremely boring person.

    Because I'm too much to handle.

    I also have no confidence around the opposite sex. I assume outright that guys won't find me attractive because of my size. Sometimes I'm right about that (I decided to call it "White Boy Skinny Syndrome.") Sometimes I'm not, though.

    I'm pretty clueless when someone is sending me signals that they are interested. Whoosh. Over my head.

    They're HYSTERICAL! Seriously... they should have their own stand up show on HBO.

    And Sublog, you shut your face and just marry me already.

    I am single because I won't give someone a label as boyfriend/girlfriend unless they have way too many qualities that I like [Being able to act/dance/sing or play the piano like a virtuoso is just one of them]

    And I have some people interested in me, but they aren't talented enough or they lack something.

    Judging by the way you're handling that pickle... I'd say YES!

    Where's my ring? :bigsmile:

    i think the 'right person' is one whose particular style of feeling/living makes you feel loved/safe/supported, and appropriately challenged, and brings out the best in you. And you do the same for them.*

    And that could happen with probably a whole lot of people, it's just accident that brings x & y together.

    * ASSUMING everything else makes sense (they have the same goals & you are at similar stages in life [not nec age]; not too much difference in earnings; they/you aren't already married, or didn't just take a job in another country)

    You used the word "weighted" in your profile. Time to lower your standards.
