Hard time holding onto a woman

[BaronOfHair]

I've mentioned on this forum before that most of the free sex I've had came from Craigslist (and other than the married woman I had the monthlong affair with from Craigslist, every Craigslist escapade was a one night stand). It's been suggested on this forum that even though a non-Chad might get lucky occassionally with short-term fun on Craigslist, a non-Chad really isn't able to expect to find a long-term partner on Craigslist.

Which would suggest perhaps the key is to meet broads from methods other than Craigslist.

After thinking on it, however, I've unfortunately run into a similar predicament with women I've gotten involved with through other methods (whether it be other tech methods or meeting organically in person).

The women I've gotten involved with through other methods tend to fall into 1 of 2 categories:

-They lose interest in me relatively quickly

Or

-They have strong interest in me, yet I quickly lose interest in her (Let's put it this way: If a woman is willing to tolerate an autist like me long-term, chances are there's something severely wrong with her...to the point where she's so unbearable to be around, I'm unable to tolerate staying with her long-term)

One notable exception is the broad I had the 8 month relationship with shortly after college (compared to all my other broads, 8 months is long-term). But even though she wasn't necessarily unbearable to be around, I wasn't attracted to her. I only stayed with her as long as I did (and yeah, the breakup was my decision) because she was all I could get. At my current age, I'm no longer willing to be with a woman I'm not attracted to, even if she's enjoyable to be around.

In a nutshell, no matter how I meet a woman, it would appear (based on past experience) holding onto her long-term will be a struggle.

Be less clingy. All creatures who are grasped tightly desire escape, sooner rather than later

You need to become more comfortable with yourself.

It might be as they say: 3rd speed dating event is the charm.

I didn't know craigslist had personals anymore, thought they took that all down.

They took it down.

I used Craigslist personals back in my 20s (I'm currently 33)

Chicken and the egg.

A lot of the stuff I post on here is the result of my inability to hold onto a woman.
