I'm not so sure if its a good idea to ask for love advice on the internet, you'll get such a heap of often contradictory advice ("don't behave like that, that and that, do behave like that that and that, but above all stay yourself!") that it tends to paralyse you more than anything else.

Great thread guys. I don't care where Che got that advice, it is priceless. Just whack off mate, while screaming the lyrics of your favorite song. Might as well take down all the shades and open the windows...never can tell what might interest the desperate housewives along the street.

The problem is that I haven't yet found an interesting woman. So I guess I'll have to make do with whatever is available on the market. We all need sex after all.


Heck yeah dude. I agree man. I'm kinda in that area right now.

Sex and Love are two entirely different things for me. They converged once, but things didn't work out...they haven't converged since.

Alex,

Several things:

1. Have an interest or hobby you are serious about. If you don't, cultivate one.

2. As I have suggested many times before - become a volunteer for a worthy cause. Red Cross, Oxfam, AI, Green Peace, or even your local library. You get to help people and meet nice women at the same time.

3. Don't think about your situation. See 1.

4. If you are out of shape, get back in shape.

5. Do you love yourself and take care of yourself? If not, start at home.
5a. Knowing cooking helps.

Soon you will have tons of women hitting on you

And suddenly I feel horribly awkward and displaced because I don't have a girlfriend. Since I divorced my wife I've been alone. I mean, really alone. So alone that it hurts.

Why can't I find a girlfriend? I'm not an ugly guy (some people even say that I'm good-looking and attractive). I'm not unemployed. I'm not a nerd who spends all of his free time in front of the computer playing Civ (well, just a little ). I like to go out with friends.

So, what's wrong with me?


Nothing. Maybe you've fallen under the temporary perception that "girls are more trouble than fun". Maybe it has to do with previous hurtful situation. Once you escape from the perception all will be good. I have often noticed how some guys put too much importance in having a girlfriend, relationship that it either paralyses them or renders them obsessive with that idea.
Halaraaaaaa Relax and always think what makes you have fun with a girl, if you're nothaving fun it's not worth it. Too much empathy is bad, you end with the short stick. Plus there's very slim chances that when you'll get with a girl you'll be in love. That may come or not. It will just be lust, excitement of something new. So don't make a big production of it because most probably it won't be. See if you're having fun with a girl, if you do go on if not arivederzi bella ciao see you later a tout allers

Not quite. In Something About Mary the main character is advised to whack off before going out on a date so that he'll already have gotten off, and thus not be anxious about whether he'll get any sex all evening, thus making him relax and better able to woo Mary.

The opposite is actually true. The more sex you have, the more you want. Whenever you have an orgasm, small amounts of testosterone are released. Among other thngs, testosterone produces confidence.

The male bull shark produces more testosterone than any animal on the planet, which is why they are so damned aggressive.

Oh, here's some more advice since you are divorced like me. Don't talk to your exwife on the phone. Have as little to do with her as possible. She will just make you feel like ****. Don't compare how well she is doing to how well you are doing. You will always think you are doing worse, because of your insecurities, and it's pointless.

My name was on the lease, and my mother is the cosigner. She couldn't pay, and I didn't want to ruin my mom's credit (actually my mom would have made me pay it). The lease is over now though. She got a bunch of back pay from welfare, but she didn't pay me back for the rent.

Nah, girls are never more trouble than fun. I'm just not trying hard enough. Either that or I have to bathe more often.

Very very true. Last time I talked to her (it was on MSN) she said that her new boyfriend can do lots of things, if you know what I mean. I didn't know if I wanted to strangle her or to kill myself.

Sex is never free. If you don't pay directly to a hooker, then you end up spending money anyway (dinner, presents, this kind of thing).
