AlexDP Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Clever girl. You saw the reasoning in my post. Yes, if you met in person, you wouldn't know the things about me that you do know. A few pages back Jane wrote a post about hiding your insecurities. And that is exactly what I do. I'd love to. When are you free? Should I use a tripod or just hold it myself? Thanks for caring, TrerBear. I ask you again, SD. Who are you? Link to post Share on other sites
KungFuJoe Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Right. Exactly. So, why does everybody here blast me again when I say it's all about looks and nothing else matters until after that matter is settled? Hmmm... Where did I say anything about it being ALL about looks? It's the whole package. Looks, personality, character, charm, etc, etc, etc. You're a sum of ALL your parts...not just one facet.

ThaWholigan Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Even I admit there's exceptions to the rule. I'm one of those people you are talking about. And I HAVE had girlfriends. But you have to play by majority rules. And most people have hard looks cutoffs. So, for most people it's all about looks. That's really the only thing I've ever told guys here. And I don't see how it's far from the truth. Treasa and Phoe are the only posters who come to mind who have said looks don't matter as much to them. You could throw my current GF in the mix. Or maybe she really thinks I'm hot. Who cares? I never asked her and really I never want to know. So, am I wrong? Yes. 10 characters 1 Link to post Share on other sites

You are also supposed to be getting rid of them, or at the very least learning to deal with them in a more adequate fashion than simply just hiding them. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Author somedude81 Posted April 1, 2013 Author Share Posted April 1, 2013 AlexD is cracking me up... SD, to answer your question from before, the answer is "somewhat". I've had it used on me many times. Saying you have a David Bowie poster on your wall wasn't "pick-upyish" in a negative way, it was cute/funny in response to TW's comment. Thanks, that's exactly the message I was trying to get across What's funny is that I actually learned the David Bowie line from Tyler Durden when I took a workshop of his many years ago. If you don't know who Tyler is, he was one of the most popular PUA instructors. Link to post Share on other sites

It's also quite scary that you took a workshop from the imaginary friend of a schizophrenic from a movie. Edited April 1, 2013 by AlexDP Link to post Share on other sites
Mme. Chaucer Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Quote: P.S. Posted by a woman with a short husband whom she LOVES, and also met online. And I've never had a serious relationship with a man under 6 feet tall before him. Glad to see that you finally realized the error or your ways. BTW, if you had met him in person first, would you have ended up marrying him? Or would you have written him off because he was short? I never wrote off any guy because he was short. My biggest crush in all of high school was short, but he did not know I existed. He was very popular with the girls, too. My biggest celebrity crush, who I happened to know personally for a while, is shorter than you are. The guys I liked a lot who also really went for me happened to be tall. They were also very engaging and did stuff with their lives that I was impressed with and admired. And we just "clicked" in a serious enough way that we ended up in long term relationships. I NEVER thought "ooooh, he's TALL." My husband? I would definitely have been attracted to him at any time in my life. I probably would not have ended up marrying him in our younger days, mostly because he was a right wing Midwestern Baptist who was terrified of gay people while I was a wild bohemian girl living in San Francisco with all the gays and punks. We would probably have been appalled by one another! Fortunately, he came around to appreciate my type of person before we met. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

pteromom Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 I'm tired about hearing women talk about how tall men are God's gift to women everywhere and how a tall guy lights her panties on fire just because he's tall. Of course he didn't do anything at all to become tall. ??? And lots of guys are attracted to women for attributes they didn't do anything to achieve.... big boobs, round butt, long hair, blonde hair, small waist, tall or short... Everyone is attracted to something. A girl who is attracted to height can't change what "lights her panties on fire", any more than you can change what lights YOU on fire.

AlexDP Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Heh, not quite. It's his stage name, and yes he got the name from Fight Club. Yes, I realized we were not talking about Brad Pitt, but about an idiotic prick whose workshop you should never have taken, because it was always obvious he was just going to rip you off. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

And that one movie they made about him. Which had parts that were pukey disgusting. Link to post Share on other sites

dasein Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Read the 16 page thread on short men v fat women? or not? read? or not? Damn it's a coin toss. Are there at least some funny pics of really, really short men or really, really fat women in there anywhere? Anyone? 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Mme. Chaucer Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 I see. So you are allowed to choose what kind of woman you want to pursue based on "shallow" qualities such as weight and breast size, but if a woman who you pursue rejects you because of a "shallow" quality such as your height, then she is in the wrong? I just want to make sure I'm understanding the full extent of the hypocrisy. I can attest to the profound depth of your understanding of this situation. Sadly, the OP is in complete denial. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

ThaWholigan Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Your flaws are as much apart of the personality package as your strengths. Your flaws are. The insecurities about your flaws are not however. Somedude is paralyzed by them, otherwise he wouldn't be making threads like this and being depressed about not having a GF. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

You have PJKino and AD1980, the loveable losers who are both short, both afraid of rejection and have a good looking friend who cleans up with all the women, including the taken ones. Then you have SteveC80 who is the tall, good looking friend who cleans up with all the women. Then you have you - the hapless damsel who just cannot bear to look at short men and loves the tall guys. Convenient little circle you guys have there . 2 Link to post Share on other sites
AlexDP Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 SD, if you take anything away from this thread let it be this: Women are really shallow. They resent you for being short. But they also like a big penis. So just tell them that your penis is so big, that when you're hard and you point it down, it actually makes you five inches taller. 5 Link to post Share on other sites
Mme. Chaucer Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Quote: And a wonderful girl - 'specially one who's about 22 years old, vivacious and fit, with small boobs won't choose to date a desperate fellow who is grudgingly willing to settle for her, when she can date men who will like her just the way she is. Seriously. LOL what is that even supposed to mean? Seriously, you can't wrap your mind around this? I don't know if I can make it any simpler for you, but I will try: Early 20's girl, good looking, nice figure, outgoing personality, A cup bra, guys are attracted to her. Mid 30's undergrad with no relationship experience, social life, or job - might be willing to go out with her, but would encourage her to get a boob job. Do you think this might happen in real life? It would not. Trust me. That girl will be interested in guys who like her the way she is. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
