Author Rinnix Posted May 1, 2011 Author Posted May 1, 2011 Not sure what link you posted but I don't see a thing.. Well, I suppose I should have thought that people would see me a certain way, but I didn't expect people to really write it out. I kind of took it as a negative remark to be honest. But don't worry about it, all is fine.
Author Rinnix Posted May 1, 2011 Author Posted May 1, 2011 I don't know if I would date myself. That would be awkward I think. Me and myself would probably be friends though. I could see how it could be awkward.
sanskrit Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 Date night with myself last night went very poorly. I laid all the cards on the table about the lack of sex in three months, and unwisely called myself a tease in a fit of pique. It didn't go over well and I got angry, stormed out and left. There was lots of back and forth texting and angry voicemails, some I listened to and some I deleted. After I left I have to admit snooping on my facebook page (I left it logged on earlier, so it wasn't -really- snooping) and apparently I had been forming an emotional affair with an ex for some time, so good riddance. I guess the next step is NC. Is there any way to block yourself on facebook? Have already defriended. Am I obligated to return expensive gifts? So no, I can't recommend anyone dating themselves based on bad personal experience. This is going to be really difficult next week because we work at the same place...

djhall Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Interesting question... Based on a logical analysis of other peoples' feedback and reactions to me, yeah, I think I probably would date myself if I saw myself through someone else's eyes (and I was female). Based on my own emotional reactions and looking at myself through my own eyes, probably not. I guess that is low-self esteem, or being overly self-judgmental, or insecurity or whatever.... Or maybe its just that I look like a beast! :-)
Author Rinnix Posted May 2, 2011 Author Posted May 2, 2011 I once saw a Tales from the Crypt episode where twins wanted the same man so they cut him in half. Perhaps it could work for your predicament. I used to watch Tales from the Crypt, do they still air it?
Author Rinnix Posted May 2, 2011 Author Posted May 2, 2011 I don't know of a channel. I looked it up on tvguide just now and it wasn't airing in the next 14 days with my cable provider. I think the closest you can get is Tales from the Darkside on scifi if they still show it but they might show it at weird hours. Aw man, I sure miss that show. I'll find it online.
Disillusioned Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 The way I solve this is to look at the boyfriends of women that are my type. I've tried that approach, and the bfs are all short, fat nerds or huge lumberjack types.
misssmartypants Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 I would date a male version of me: HAs kids and a busy job and takes care of his business and tends to be nerdy and liberal.
MrNate Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Would i date myself? Yes. Why? Well, why not? I'm that amazing to be around.
Professor X Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 I would date my right hand - I'm so awesome, it's enough.
silvermane187 Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 A female version of myself? Hell, I don't know, probably not. Simply because dating someone exactly like you would be boring. Ever see that episode of Seinfeld where Jerry dated the female version of himself? That's how I feel about it.
in_absentia Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 I would definitely date myself if I had the emotional resources. I'm on the more attractive end of 'average' (pretty face, slim, decent body, tall) and a good person... I'm trustworthy to the nth degree, I'm educated and intelligent, a hard worker, I would never cheat, I'm passionate about certain things and so forth, I give a lot of my time to charity work and care deeply about other people and animals. On the other hand I wouldn't do it unless I had the emotional capacity to give me a lot of care and attention. I've been in chronic pain for six years and have a lot of health issues getting sick constantly, my mum died four months ago after a few years' nasty battle with alcoholism and my sister's in prison for arson, among other bad things going on with me. I get on with things and I'm doing as well as I can, but the things that make my life difficult aren't going away any time soon and I can get a bit upset now and then.
oaks Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 When you look at yourself according to your rating, would you date yourself? Do you find yourself above or below average in regards to physical appearance? Yes probably, and I think I'm above average in physical appearance but well short of being handsome. Maybe a 7. For a laugh I put a photo on Hotornot a couple of months ago and it's currently rated 9.9, which amuses me no end (so there's no need to tell me not to take that site seriously).

Who knows, maybe your just too critical of yourself. While that site is a bit off, I found some to be accurate. So, you must be a looker
Disillusioned Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 It is illegal in all countries for a female version of myself to breathe Earth air. But yes, I'd date her. We'd be partners in crime... or at least partners in irreverence.
abouttoloseit Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 I would date my right hand - I'm so awesome, it's enough. Would I date myself now? Hell no. I'm too busy. I'd care not for the emotional crap that comes with having a significant other in ones life. Besides, I'm saving for a house. I don't care what I look like as long as my arms stay nice.
Red Arremer Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Would I date a female version of myself? Probably not. She'd be boring and kinda pudgy (and not in the attractive way either). Not to mention all the mental hangups. Reading what I just wrote I'm guessing she'd have self-esteem issues as well.

Knittress Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 (edited) So I skimmed over the middle, but so far I'm wondering whether this thread is about gloating or broadcasting lots of poor self esteem. Tossup? PSA: 1) If you don't like something about yourself, stop grousing and work on fixing it. Not only will your problem-area improve, but the lack of bitching will make you much better company. And hey! Maybe THAT was the biggest problem all along... (this statement is autobiographical, btw) 2) Being awesome entails making other people feel awesome. Edited May 3, 2011 by Knittress
thehead Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Id nail myself. Id nail myself so hard. Forget dinner afterwards too. Id drive myself home and drop myself off at the curb. Hey I never said I was a good date.

mr.dream merchant Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Would I date the female counter-part of myself? Most likley no. She'd probably be high maintenance and stuck up due to her physical beauty, she could get away with it. Meh :/ it's a weird concept and I refuse to think of myself as a woman. I am a young man.
oaks Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 So, you must be a looker Well thank you. You're not so bad yourself.
