It doesn't work that way.
Actually, it does! A little confidence goes a
long way. Now if you're aiming for the platnium blonde that everyone else lusts for, well, you're one guy in many. But if you find a woman that you really like, you'd be surprised how quickly she'll return the favor. You're just two people looking for love -- temporary, permanent or otherwise, it doesn't matter.
You can't understand what it's like unless you're like me.
Like you how? Yes, when I gained weight by late college, I had less opportunities. I was never a catch physically either (although my althetic abilities helped in high school, they were not the reason I was with many women in college). But then again, my wife met me near my heaviest, and loved me for myself.
So, yes, I don't know how it is to be you. And if I got the chance to be near you, I'd turn you around rather quickly.
The question is, would you be mature enough to handle it? That's always the problem with those less experienced -- even myself when I was young. I was dating the hot blonde cheerleader in early high school, and everyone thought I was "mature." Yeah, because it's easy to be "mature" when you don't even go past 1st base.
But I was a completely different woman who turned me on that made me totally screw it up because I wasn't mature (my desire was raw and selfish). Was she the blonde cheerleader? Hell no. She was one curvy woman who showed me that I was a man, and damn if I didn't just totally fall for her harder than anything to the point I drove her away.
By mid-high school, with one keen and mature girlfriend (who surprisingly later gave into drugs, never understood why, she seemed so strong willed), I was over the immaturity. And it didn't matter how unattractive and, now, unfit I was in college, I still found plenty of love. Even outside of college at the part-time job I had in an office environment where I was not the looker at all.
Getting girls is a skill and requires certain qualities,
No, it requires
no skill. It requires honesty, self-awareness, honesty and maturity -- in a nutshell, "being yourself" and how you are "yourself" with friends.
it's not something that just anyone can do.
Non-sense! You have been fed that shit by the media, the popularity contest that
no one should give a shit about and countless other, self-inflicted bullshit.
Some people just don't have what it takes.
Given that your life-long lover is going to be your best friend, it has far more to do with knowing how to be a "friend" than "getting girls." You'd be surprised how close even temporary lovers can be "friends."
And the ones that aren't are immature, so forget them. Or have fun and forget them. No judgement by me either way.
