no, your just normal

i thought the distibution of male and female is dwindling since most male die from obvious reasons that makes us *valueable* ??

dpends is she good looking or is she ugly, if she is good looking its normal and thats good. if she is bad looking well just walk away

dsqrn, im going to have to thwack you most utterly to the ends of this site for such idiotic drivel, it is NOT the looks that matter it is what theyre like as a person, they could be the most gorgeous person on the face of gods green earth, yet have the personality of ciggarete ash, i dont know about you, id rather meet the someone with the face of a trout, had they a good personality.

Given what you posted before Jake, I'd say that your ego has been worn down by past efforts that did not get you what you had wanted in a relationship so something inside you decided that you "were not worthy." That's understandable, I'd say. But, also, it means that your romantic neural net had put itself temporarily on hold, at least. Besides, the setup in which all this happened isn't what I suppose you would have thought was a good fishing ground.

Given that you were surprised that the girl at the register wanted your phone number, I assume that she actually was attractive to you in some way ... as you must have checked her out. Thing about this is, again, girls are better at it than the guys are. Girls can check out a guy and not get caught but guys seem to have difficulty taking in what they see in quick glances and end up ogling and, in some cases, drooling as well. Don't ask me how and why because if I knew that, I'd have been far more successful with the ladies too!

So.... did you let your friend give that other girl your phone number

<Edit>

Moral of your story is, I think, there are no "perfect" opportunities and there are no "imperfect" ones either. And here's another oldie and moldie crumble of wisdom .... "When opportunity knocks, open the door."

"Is my ego so battered and worn down, that I find it strange that people would be attracted to me? Have I got such a low view of myself? I used to take pride in my ego, and this may have proved that the people who i used to hang around with were actually lowering my self worth? or is that me?"

yes.
yes.
yes.
yes.

you're suffering from low self-esteem tending to clinical depression and therefore find it difficult to understand or accept that anyone might find you attractive. I have suffered from the same mind-set for many years. it's very difficult to break out of the vicious cycle of low self-esteem and rejection.

Then again, you always have the opportunity to matriculate into the Tawakalna Couch Academy of Therapy and have the infinitesimal wisdom of the Grand Mullah wash over you with heady balms of psychoanalytical angst and inadequacy.

english translation: taw will take you to the nearest pub and get you drunk.

yeah, you probably look too low on yourself.

did you give her your number then/ ?

I feel for the girl if you did

What is this.....ego? wait, I seem to recall that I had one....a long time ago....

*Pets the glass jar containing FF's ego*

It's alright, it's in safe hands.

Lol picking up random girls in conveniance stores....seems kinda weird to me

Battered and bruised, No. In need of healing, yes in that of needing and wanting love, but not finding it. I simpithise with you.
