desertmoon Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 No, just your average neighborhood chinaman. My parents were from Malaysia. Ahh..I was very close-your parents are southeast Asians <I'm good, pats self >. Saw your pic and think there is nothing wrong with you physically, as a matter of fact, you are attractive , but I think you must be communicating some aura of desperation-that's a bit daunting to deal with in a bar/club scene. I have a cousin I can hook you up with it. Interested? !

I try to avoid being hooked up by others...I'd rather not see the girl's look of disappointment when she sees me...it makes for quite an awkward time...

What is with this disparaging remarks you make when talking about yourself? I am pretty sure you do not LOOK desperate but the way you talk about yourself is , frankly,not so attractive. Tell me, why should anyone go out with you when you do not think much about yourself? Do you need to be built up by a woman? Oh god, I sound like someone's mom! and I am not even old!
Author USMCHokie Posted March 16, 2010 Author Posted March 16, 2010 Tell me, why should anyone go out with you when you do not think much about yourself? Do you need to be built up by a woman? Well, to be perfectly honest, I think very highly of myself, and I'm confident in my personality, the kind of person I am, and all that I have achieved in my life thusfar. However, I find that those things don't seem to matter much to women...it really is all about the outward appearances...and you won't get a chance to show them how great you are unless you can meet their standard of attractiveness...and being different doesn't help all that much... And no, I don't find that I need anyone else to "build me up"...maybe except for Rob (bananaboat)...heheh...but I think I'm doing alright in life...

And no, I don't find that I need anyone else to "build me up"...maybe except for Rob (bananaboat)...heheh...but I think I'm doing alright in life... what's so different about you? You are Asian (so what? many of Asians around-yes, even in DC!); you are a high achiever ( so what? you are Asian , of course you are a high achiever ) ; ahhh-I get it! You are an Asian man who prefers Caucasian women (?), the eye-candy type-those who frequent the bars/clubs. Well, you need props for that! signature clothes, expensive car AND a generous wallet. First befriend the bartender(read; put him on your payroll) and tell him what you want and get him to work! PS: who is bananaboat,is he like your mentor? and more importantly,is he as cute as you? If he is your "mentor" why is he on LS?
desertmoon Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 I'm with you . meaningless hookups are just that. bonfires are cool however It's one way of viewing it...how about looking at it as meaningFUL friendships?

You are an Asian man who prefers Caucasian women (?), the eye-candy type-those who frequent the bars/clubs. Well, you need props for that! signature clothes, expensive car AND a generous wallet. Yes, I am Asian... And not a very good one at that...I guess that's my one primary difference... And it's not that I necessarily prefer Caucasian women...it's just who I'm around all the time...grew up around them, went to school around them, and pretty much see them everywhere...and to be honest, I'm not really super attracted to the eye-candy types...they tend to be very 'eh' to me...

If he is your "mentor" why is he on LS? Heh, bananaboat is another member on LS...we're friends...and he's a stud...
Don'tWannabeAWannabe Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 Like another poster said, why aren't you wearing your formal marine uniform whenever you go out? I had a friend in the Army who wore out his formal uniform to the club all the time (beret and all) and he almost never got rejected.
Don'tWannabeAWannabe Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 I can't comprehend that women are looking at you in disgust. I had a peek at your photo's and you appear to be an attractive and approachable looking man. I don't think you understand how catty and hostile some of these 20-something club-hopping girls can be towards guys they don't know, especially here in the US.

desertmoon Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 Eh...I just find that amazingly tacky... Heh, if it works for him, more power to him! So you don't date Asians? <gasps>
Author USMCHokie Posted March 16, 2010 Author Posted March 16, 2010 So you don't date Asians? <gasps> I guess I would if I knew or met any...seriously, I've never even had an Asian friend...so I don't really know what they'd think of me...
desertmoon Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 I guess I would if I knew or met any...seriously, I've never even had an Asian friend...so I don't really know what they'd think of me... Really? Do you like the fact that you are of Asian heritage? You know, you have to embrace/love yourself first-self loathing is infectious---sad....
Author USMCHokie Posted March 16, 2010 Author Posted March 16, 2010 Do you like the fact that you are of Asian heritage? No. Absolutely not. I am whiter than a lot of white people I know...

You know, you have to embrace/love yourself first-self loathing is infectious---sad.... I've noticed that a LOT of Asian-Americans usually don't like to date other Asians for some reason. Every Asian girl I knew said they would never go out with an Asian guy. And every Asian guy I knew thought Asian girls were unattractive
desertmoon Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 No. Absolutely not. I am whiter than a lot of white people I know... Interesting, except that you are not-there is a disconnect somewhere.

Every Asian girl I knew said they would never go out with an Asian guy. And every Asian guy I knew thought Asian girls were unattractive Agreed. But as a guy, it stems from the above bolded statement. Asian guys aren't white, so Asian girls in the US no likey...strange world we live in...
Don'tWannabeAWannabe Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 Eh...I just find that amazingly tacky... Well, why is it tacky? The green suit and beret explains who he is and what he's done with his life. I believe he earned it (fought in Afghanistan and Iraq 01-05)
Author USMCHokie Posted March 16, 2010 Author Posted March 16, 2010 Interesting, except that you are not-there is a disconnect somewhere. Yea...not sure what went wrong there...

I believe he earned it (fought in Afghanistan and Iraq 01-05)[/quote'] I understand what you're saying, and it's definitely something to be proud of. But to each his/her own I guess...it's just not something I'd do...and I sport the goofy jarhead haircut as it is...so it's pretty evident what I do...hasn't really done much for me...
desertmoon Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 Yea...not sure what went wrong there... oh well, I tried. I better stop this exchange, I am Asian and you are probably hating the fact that I have the audacity to post on your thread. You should put "no asians allowed" at the heading. Good luck! <-----thinks: "and there you have it, exhibit A"

Good luck! <-----thinks: "and there you have it, exhibit A" Heheh, not at all! I would hope that you didn't think I have anything against Asians...which I don't...I just don't have any experience with them...as friends or otherwise...so I guess I just stick with what I know... But thanks for your insight...I really do appreciate it...I'm just kind of a mess right now...
boogieboy Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 However, I find that those things don't seem to matter much to women...it really is all about the outward appearances...and you won't get a chance to show them how great you are unless you can meet their standard of attractiveness..... Showing them in person is the ONLY way for them to see how great you are. I deal with this because Im black going after caucasian and spanish women...the demos that least desire me. You have to convince them with interesting banter why being asian shouldnt make a difference to them. You cant change your look, so you have to get past it and convince them that their standards are crap. And you cant go up to them wearing a sign on your face like "im here to impress you!"
