jaredb Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 Throughout my illustrious 18 year life, I've had one (yes, one) girlfriend. She fit what i wanted: beautiful and interested. Ever since, I haven't found any with this criteria. I have, however, found people who were immensely interested but weren't physically attractive. So, I kept my distance, no matter how nice they were (cruel, isn't it?). So here I am at University of Penn as a freshman still finding no one who interests me b/c i am so picky physically. I have thought many times of 'lowering my standards' and actually tried sometimes but in the end im not happy. So, after talking to about 600-800 girls, I have come to the conclusion that I dont deserve anyone b/c i dont want those who treat me nicely, but i cant seem to get the beautiful a**h***s out of my head just because of their exterior. Pathetic, aint it?
Outcast Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 You are just barely into adulthood. There's dozens of years for you to wise up, meet someone, and love her for who she is. Deciding things for the next 62 or 72 years at 18 is rash and just plain silly.
ALittleTeapot Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 Maybe you haven't met anybody yet who fits all other criteria, even the criteria that you have that you're unaware of. One of my main requirements is (relative) intelligence and I went through hundreds of guys until I found one.
Ms_Sweetness Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 Just give it some time, you will run across someone that you will absolutely adore. I was once very picky (still am to a certain extent), but I began to understand what type of guy I was really looking for and was able to eliminate most of the "a**h***s" from the start.
whichwayisup Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 Trust me, one day you'll met someone and your heart will skip a beat. At 18 there is no rush to worry.

Slapshot2286 Posted September 28, 2005 Posted September 28, 2005 id rather have 50 relationships that dont go anywhere than 1 every 5 years Why? Why have a relationship that's going nowhere? What's wrong with having one every five years if its lasts the entire five years and you're happy? I only a sophomore in college. I look at things in somewhat the same way you do. You want an extremely beautiful girl who treats you great. That's what everyone wants. Some find it. I think I have it. You will find someone, you just have to let your guard down. Sometimes the person seems much more beautiful (physically) once you know them on the inside....as lame as that sounds. You can't physically see inside them, but once you have discovered who they are, your mind makes you see whatever it wants. Watch the movie Shallow Hal. perfect example.
