You know guys, it's interesting that even though I consciously realize all my super strong traits in regards to dating, I still feel so hopeless towards dating because I've convinced myself many many times that the only way to get an attractive girlfriend is to be an impossibly, ungodly perfect male. I've made dating to be SO massively difficult in my mind and exaggerated women's standards to such a crazy level that I've felt completely hopeless and powerless to ever meet someone I wanted to be with for many many years.
I really want to snap out of it and I'm finally starting to move towards that direction. I had 2 female customers last couple days that really made me think about how my lack of dating life has been all my fault. I had an Indian customer at work who flat out asked me out on a date and then I had an asian girl (a scientist doing nuclear physics) who also was pretty interested in me. I was talking to the Asian girl (she's a hardcore introvert) and she was just astonished that I'm able to talk to people from lots of different walks of life and make them feel like I'm their best friend instantly (which is what you have to do to sell cars).
I look at my self in real life and I feel like I have all of the top 5 or 6 traits that you need to dominate socially
- looks/body/style
- character/morals - being a genuinely good person with a great heart
- social skills - being able to connect with people from different walks of life
- academic intelligence and emotional intelligence
- very strong financially
I look back at my life and it's unbelievable how badly I've underachieved in dating because of my feelings of powerless/hopelessness. I really need to stop thinking that attractive women are some kind of alien species whose whole life plan is to never be with me
When I was a high schooler, I had kids who mocked me for my lack of dating life and I internalized that sooooooooooooooooooooo hard and felt like I never deserved to have a girlfriend. What's messed up is I met up with my high school bully 6 years later and he was very very friendly towards me and told me I should have no problem dating hot girls...but because of how badly I convinced myself that I was worthless in dating, I still couldn't snap out of it.
Have you guys ever met someone like me who was so strong in all the surface areas yet still felt so hopeless in dating?
