I'm not writing this to draw or attract pity/sympathy, or to feel sorry for myself, I'm just thinking out loud.
I haven't been on a date since last summer, and that girl was a disaster, she came to our date high as a kite. So disappointing. Before that, it was summer of 2012, with a nice girl from Hancock Park, CA. But her family didn't approve of me, and she wasn't too interested in me either, at least I think she wasn't...she did prank call me for the rest of the year, calling and hanging up, but I guess she was just bored. She was a bit strange, too, as were her family. I haven't heard from her in a while.
Winter of 2011, I dated one sweet Persian girl, but she went and gave her ex boyfriend another chance...didn't realize that I was so horrible that I'd sent her back to her ex, though he called her and begged her for another chance and she gave it to him, but I dunno. Then there was winter of 2011 again, and this [tacky] woman rejected me even though I was nothing but nice to her. Hmph.
Okay, so I'm not rich, and I'm only 5' 10". But I have other good fucking qualities, and I am so sick of these L.A. women all wanting a tall, rich, handsome, Bruce Wayne type! Guys like that barely exist, and if they did, they could have ANY woman they want, and they themselves would have REALLY narrow tastes. I'm not asking to date a supermodel, or someone like that, and I'm flexible with my tastes...I can't understand what the hell I'm doing wrong though. I always shower, shave, brush my teeth, and dress decently for a date. For God's sake, I even wear cologne! I always pay for the dinner, I let the women do the talking, and I listen to them, I'm genuinely polite and ask them the questions...
I love artistically talented types, smarts are important, a good personality. I'll be honest, I like someone who looks pretty. She doesn't have to be drop dead gorgeous, but at least pleasant to look at. I also would like someone who is kind, honest, and shares the same interests I do, and also has a similar sense of humor to mine. I hope to find someone like that. Age difference is no problem, as long as it's less than 10 years older or younger.
There is a member of deviant art that I currently have a crush on (recently gave her a llama badge), she doesn't even know that I exist yet. But I hope she realizes it soon, and even if she doesn't feel the same way about me, then at least I still hope we can become friends. She is highly talented, and I always comment on her works, and I follow her on this site (not in a creepy stalker way). I just found her here, and I try to find an opportunity to talk to her. She's pretty busy though, but I hope she finds my notes and responds in a kind way, not a mean and snarky way, and I hope that she doesn't block or report me. *Update* She did recently reply to a note of mine, simply said "Thanks", but it's a start. She seems like such a nice person, I hope that we can get to know each other more personally.
I dated a great woman in 2007, she was the type I love, artistic, talented, beautiful, smart, honest, kind...but she was very ill. She died a month after I met her. I miss her, and think about her a lot. I'm glad that I met her, I wouldn't miss that for the world.
In 2008 I did have a girlfriend, but then after 9 months, she started cheating on me with another guy who shoots at squirrels with a pellet rifle for fun. She broke up with me via text, after standing me up and lying to me. Then, that guy she was cheating on me with broke up with HER 3 weeks after she dumped me. Poetic justice! 2009, no luck. 2010, worse luck. I've also been stood up, and left waiting, and then some of these women drove past me with their actual date and honk the horn at me, laughing as they sped by. Reeeeeal classy, I say sarcastically.
Makes me wonder what I did to deserve this...maybe I was a bad person in a past life, and I'm being punished for it in this life.
I hope that I find that special someone soon, I won't give up.
