    For the guys

    Well, I was able to look in the mirror and say I love you. When I first tried it a couple of days ago I thought there was no way I was able to do it. But a few things changed. Long story short, I realized that I was just like my abusive father. I had spent my entire life trying to be...

    What am I doing wrong?

    Remember all you can do is your best. Your best is enough. If something doesnt work out, it probably wasnt for the better. But we can always improve what our 'best' is. For example, I have learned I need to open up more to girls Im interested in despite an intense fear of rejection proving...

    What am I doing wrong?

    Im happy to hear about your situation improving. Hopefully it continues to help with your confidence and happiness. Maybe just do what Im going to do - expect the humiliation of rejection or a failed date and embrace it. See it as necessary pain to reach a greater goal. When you work out...

    For the guys

    This video .. Maybe I refuse to believe anybody can love me because nobody has ever loved me. I feel like I dont really know what love is. How could I? I never experienced it. How can I love myself if I do not know what love is. I've had a few episodes of unrequited love, but that type of...

    Whats your biggest mistake of your life?

    Probably allowing an incident in my early 20s to make me not care about having a relationship until 30. Basically I got this crush on this girl at 22, 23 - and it ate at me every single day. I began to despise the feelings it gave me. I wanted the feelings to go away so bad but they wouldnt...

    What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks, this is good advice. How can I really know who I want without dating? And thats an interesting point that idea of who I like may change if I meet the right person. So the mission is clear - start dating! Easier said then done unfortunately. Another thanks to everyone for reading...

    What am I doing wrong?

    This crossed my mind a couple of times, but after doing alot of research on the internet about such things I've decided its probably best to just let it go. Something I read really caught my attention - that the best relationships tend to be the ones where everything flows well even from the...

    Why can't I be liked

    Maybe when talking to other people try and focus the conversation on them? If you show alot of interest in the other person its likely they'll become more interested in you because they'll feel you care about them. You may already be doing this Im just trying to help out

    What am I doing wrong?

    I think I'll try #2. Cant go wrong with meeting and getting to know new people. How else am I going to find someone? I should have done this. However my personality always leans towards 'dont push the issue' and it carried over here. I'll try not to make that mistake next time. Its going...

    What would you like a good first date to be like?

    My first date? I'd like to go shopping at a mall, and not just the two of us. Maybe some of her family/friends or some of my family/friends go with us, so its not just the two of us all the time which might cause some awkward moments. I just think shopping at a mall would be a good choice...

    What am I doing wrong?

    Long post coming up. Im 30 years old. Never had a girlfriend, never had a girl show many any type of attention. And at this point Im wondering how much of this is my fault? Growing up I was verbally abused almost every day by father. Some times I was beaten with branches or had heavy...
