shoedevil Posted September 5, 2006 Posted September 5, 2006 Edit: To add to the prom queen nerd image that's so stupid...when I'm jealous, I don't think of her as a girl who was looking for love and got hurt, I look as an intimidated onlooker watches the girl everyone wants just have the time of her life with people. I am jealous that she had those opportunities, its terrible. Young women always have more opportunities than young men these days. Society places a higher value on women when they're young. As people age, society places a higher value on men than women. It's not fair, and I think it's archaic, but that's the way it is. You shouldn't feel jealous of her. I admire my girlfriend because, though she did had many more opportunities to interact with the opposite sex than I did, she chose to expercise her opportunities carefully (she didn't jump from boyfriend to boyfriend). You shouldn't feel that sleeping with X number of women will give yourself any kind of special value, because it really won't. In the end, most all people are happy in monagamous long-term relationships, and you only need one other person for that.
Author sockpuppet Posted September 5, 2006 Author Posted September 5, 2006 Yea, I know what I have to do, its just getting there. I think back to when we started dating and I was so confident, I don't know what happened. I feel like I was a totally different person then. I just need a way to get back to that, rebuilding confidence and self-esteem isn't exactly a science.
