My problem is that I always seem to fail with the ''special'' ones. They always had equal interest in me at the start and as we went out I'd get more nervous as I knew I really liked them. It's also unfortunate that they came into my life during a bad pick up phase where I was in a rut with no options, that isn't to say that they weren't ''special'' I was just unlucky I had no options or plates at the time. This is probably what led to my downfall. How does one prepare for meeting their ''one'' under these circumstances?
I wasn't ready five years ago, and I thought I was ready last year after 5 years or intensive pick up and dating, but I wasn't. I fell into old habits and it wasn't easy for me to just walk away as for 1 I had no other options, and 2 I knew I couldn't just walk away and forget her as I knew she was ''special''. I just knew.
These 2 girls looked so similar to each other facially. They had the exact features I would envisage what my wife would look like, hell they weren't the most stunning beautiful women out there if I want to look at it objectively, but to me they were the most beautiful women for what I liked. I felt I would never be tempted away by another girl unless of course she was a prettier version of this look. I hope I find another one sometime soon. It feels quite empty and hollow picking up after meeting and failing with a special ''one'' and the answers of ''just find new girls'' or ''she wasn't special she was just another girl'' and ''she wasn't as interested in you as you were in her, she's not worth it'' don't really help because YOU know deep down that she was special.
Dude I thought I was the only one like this!
My type is short, petite, with an angled face, witty, very funny, and ambitious. Dude those girls are soo hard to come by. I met the most beautiful girl I've ever seen about 3 years ago, and omg I had NO game. I pretended I was into the same stuff as her to try to appeal to her. Looking back, it was horrible!
But I understand what you're saying, as I only want my "type" of girl, which is why I don't rate girls 1-10. My system is 1-4.
1 - You are ugly. I'll talk to you if I work with you, or if you're friendly to me.
2 - You're "attractive" but we're definately just going to stay friends because you're not honestly that attractive.
3 - Ok, you're damn cute, I'll date you, but I kinda want more.
4 - OMFG let's get married! I know I'm young but fvck it! I'll never look at another girl again!
Haha, so as you can imagine, I meet way more 3's than 4's. I'm currently talking to a 4, and sh!t has sloweddd considerably, so today is day 2 of no contact.
I seriously might cry if this works as well as you explained! Initially she acted and talked like we were meant for each other, so maybe this tactic will bring this out again.
And it sucks we have to resort to **** like this, but what seano said is true.
If we don't care about the girls, we'll be more attractive to them.
I guess what we have to do is find the girls we REALLY want, (my 4s) and actively date other girls at the same time (hopefully other 4s!)
It is weird how this works though. I met a girl at a restaurant a few weeks ago who is a 10. I mean this girl is gorgeous by ANYONE's standards. But i'd rather have "my" type, even when my friends are like "you like her, really?"
To each his own, I guess.
Let's work on improving our game to be ready when we meet those other "ones"
On the positive, look at it this way. If it doesn't work out with this girl, we know there are others in this category, so it's not really the "one" who got away....more like "one of the one's" lol
