What are you kidding me! Why would i do something as dumb as that! Shoot! Only a dumb ass lowers their standards! But hell if the numbers are in your favor the odds stand that you don't have to lower your standards and eventually things turn up the way you want them. That pesky perception thing. Remember the 52 hot Playboy Bunnies and Andi Dick? Given those numbers odds are one of the girls will receive Mr. Dick to be a catch. Aint nothing and I MEAN NOTHING better than being in desired quantity in a sellers market. Thus, we have to ask....were those two ladies really 10/10's or were they at best a 6? Or worse..a female version of Andy Dick?Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

oldwomanc6 60 #78 September 10, 2011 Shah, Your anger is so much, that no one can beat through it. I think a lot of us have sympathy for you , but when you seem to radiate the same idea that it is everyone but you, I wonder. We all try to keep it light, but HOLY CRAP! We have all gone through break-ups of what we felt was the love of our life. We learn (hopefully) what went wrong. And then refine what we want. What do you want? What do you want others to perceive about you? I can say right now, you may be sucking a lot of posts in your direction, but not many girls on the dz (and they are few and far between) are going to knocking on your door. Honey attracts more than vinegar. My rant for today!lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 3,114 #79 September 10, 2011 >Ah hell no! I'm not lowering my standards! That's fine. That means you won't find "mrs. right now" even though you could if you chose to do so. >But hell if the numbers are in your favor the odds stand that you don't have to lower >your standards and eventually things turn up the way you want them. I think that you will find that if you set your standards independently of how many women there are out there (or what the odds are, or where you live etc) you'll be happier in the long run. And that a difference of 1.5% is a vanishingly small part of the equation. >That pesky perception thing. Remember the 52 hot Playboy Bunnies and Andi Dick? Yep. And remember that cow that thought the grass was greener on the other side of the fence? Turns out it wasn't, even though it looked a lot better than the grass on her side.

Honey attracts more than vinegar. My rant for today! Yeah working on it. How can I put it......"the magic for me is gone". I just see systems and numbers and equations of human interactions. For me at the moment the "human element" is removed, dating for lack of a better word is nothing more than a card game. Maybe that will change one day? Maybe not. But for now, I see interactions as basic economics and perception.Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

shah269 0 #82 September 10, 2011 I gave this a bit of though...instead of paying attention in class.... And I have to apologize Just because I am jaded and view basic human interactions as a system doesn't mean that it is this way and I should not have been as argumentative. Yes it started off as a fun debate but in the end....it just got too heated and too much negative energy was expended. That said....yo OP take some pics of these two girls will you! Can i get an A-men! Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay. The only thing that falls from the sky is birdshit and fools!

The bad thing about carrying too much baggage around is that it puts real limits on how far you can go.

normiss 893 #97 September 16, 2011 Lemme get this straight. You're the guy having issues being severely upside down in your home, and having trouble getting dates. You're now comparing dating to economics??? The chick that puts out on the first date not working out? I thought you two hit it off. Dude relax. Be you. Stop pushing it. You'll find you one.
