Are you picky in choosing dates, mates and friends? I've always thought of myself as being very selective in these areas, especially when choosing dates and mates. I've always had good looking women, and I've shunned many potential mates on looks alone. I've also dumped many because of rudeness or any other red flag that popped up. I met a girl once and had a great time with her. She spent the night with me. The next morning, she pulled a pint of vodka out of her purse. I never called her. Another, with whom I was extremely compatible, would begin asking dumb questions to the point I would give sarcastic answers. She lasted three dates. I could go on with dozens of stories like this. I don't expect anyone to be perfect, but it doesn't take much to turn me off to someone. I've always been like this, and I'm sure it has played a part in my loneliness.
The irony of all ironies: The one time I told myself, "Calm down and give the girl a chance," I ended up in a two-year nightmare of a relationship with the ugliest and most messed up woman on the planet. No bullshit. This woman's own father doesn't trust her enough to send her teenage niece out for a visit. Her father thinks (knows) that she'd damage the poor young girl. Such is life.
