Love, Awkward, Dating and My ex: Girls gone wild

Girls gone wild

By Anonymous - 22/01/2023 06:00 - United States

Today, the only girl who seems semi-interested in me is my ex-girlfriend, who bails out every time we make plans to meet up. I deserve to be treated better, but better wants nothing to do with me. Genuinely kind girls tell I'm too short, or assume I have ulterior motives. I hate hookups and dating in your twenties. FML

Same thing different taste

Second best

Today, at the age of 34, I realized every girl since high school who has dated me, only dated me because they had low self-esteem or were rebounding. The second they found someone they thought was better, they would leave me. Will I find someone who actually wants to be with me? FML

What should I do?

Today, every girl i've ever been interested in will not text me back or follow up. I barely had any luck back in high school. I thought it would get better. Is this what dating is like in the mid-20's? FML

Close knit community

Today, I'm single, as all the girls I’ve ever liked are either taken or hate my guts, and even if you don’t tell her, another girl would feel it, as if she’s a fifth choice at best, and might not like that. FML

Classic nice guy rhetoric

By Anonymous - 13/09/2023 00:02

Today, the girl I like would rather meet potential partners online, some in different states, and wonders why nothing works out. Apparently the guy who took her on dates, AKA me, is just friend material. FML

Today, I got rejected by a girl I was talking to. We had mutual feelings, and I waited a long time for her to be single again. We talked, made out, and now she has gotten into another relationship, acting like she doesn't like me anymore… but still wants to be friends? FML

Messed up

By bob - 15/02/2024 03:00 - United States

Today, I see plenty of guys who've messed up on Valentine's Day and not getting their girlfriend’s gifts. Meanwhile, I’m over here having been turned down by every girl i’ve known for the last four years. “I only see you as a friend”, “I’m not interested in a relationship”, “I don't see you that way.” FML

Today, I met a cute girl. She seemed really sweet and I was heartbroken to find out that she had fallen on hard times and was living in a shelter. I asked her if I could take her out to lunch. She said, "No." I can't even get a date with a homeless girl. FML

Early warning

By Loser - 04/10/2022 09:30

Today, I went out to dinner with the girl of my dreams. Wanting to get to know her, I asked her what she’s looking for in a relationship. She scoffed and said how relationships are for the weak and that it’s better to not catch feelings to avoid being hurt. I guess I don’t have a chance. FML

Time is running out

By Beatriz - 25/06/2024 16:00 - United States

Today, the guys I rejected for being too short or looking too nerdy are both in committed relationships and engaged with their significant others. Meanwhile, it’s been two years and I keep getting ghosted or in situationship after situationship. FML

Such a nice guy

By Anonymous - 14/01/2024 02:00 - United States

Today, the only girl who likes me is a girl who is overweight and uses body acceptance as a reason to get mad at me for turning her down. Call me shallow but as someone who works out frequently, I don't want someone who douses herself with tattoos, thinking guys will fetishize her, instead of self-care. FML

Dating can be tough, but don't give up! Be yourself, stand up for your beliefs, and eventually, you'll meet someone who makes you for you.

1 look at the type of girls you're looking at. genuinely nice girls don't give a hoot about your height. 2 take a long look into yourself, you may not be the nice guy you think you are. girls love nice guys. we don't love "nice guys."

Wanting to get laid is a motive -- nothing ulterior about it. It's infuriating in this age of inclusivity where racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, body-shaming, etc. are all condemned, but blatant discrimination against short men is somehow socially acceptable.

I've heard that dating in your 70s or later is fantastic. Just hang in there for a half-century.

Meh most women are interested in guys their height or taller. Sure there are a few out there that say they don't care, but I think really they do care. And there is nothing wrong with that btw. As someone who is 5'2 and dated in his 40's, it does not get better however be patient and when you least expect it something will come along that will suit you just fine.

Interesting that lesbians would also be focused on getting a tall significant other. When that isn't something guys really care about for women.

start doing things you want to do on your own, then you'll find people who are in to what you are that you can connect with, then go to those things together with new people. that was how i did it when i was a young stay at home mom with no friends, and it worked to meet some cool people
