Hello all, this is my first post.
Unlike many of you here, I'm not just an AFC but a WBAFC (way below average frustrated chump). Until about 2 years ago, I rarely even had meaningful social interactions with girls....forget dates/sex. I'd talk to a few girls in class but we'd never see each other outside school. The only girls I "hung out" with were friends/girlfriends of my guy friends. It was an exciting moment when a girl wanted to study with me! Yup....pretty sad.
I've recently resolved to change this. The other aspects of my life are pretty good: I'm in a lucrative (and personally rewarding) career track, I've got some good friends, I have a great relationship with my family and I'm a healthy individual. If I could fill this void in my love/sex life, life would just be peachy.
I think that I have now progressed to the level of AFC (yeah I know...that sounds really sad!). I now have a lot more friends than I used to. I move in several different social circles. And for the first time, I actually have lots of female friends. Many of them are very attractive. I've tried getting with a couple of them but they were only interested in friendship.
It's really got me in a funk recently. Sometimes, it feels like happy couples walking down the street are there to mock me. I've been looking for things to stay positive about.
So, can I at least take hope in the fact that there are girls that actually enjoy my company and like me....albeit in a platonic sense? Can I at least tell myself that I'm headed in the right direction?
