While you’re having a good time being and doing these awesome things, you may run into someone who likes those things too. Maybe she’ll be more attactive than you. Maybe less. But it wont matter, because if you’re lucky, she’ll understand you and have fun with you and connect with you in a way that beautiful woman never will.

I’ve been doing what I like my whole life, and I’m 22 years old and never had a girlfriend. Maybe that works for people like you, but I figured out I’m a pathetic piece of shit that no girl will touch a while ago, because I certainly wasn’t attractive when my attitude was good.
