What do YOU have to offer?

[Bratwurst0516]

I've seen a number of threads here on the forum over the years, asking what everyone looks for in a potential mate. I thought we'd try something a little different this time and instead of asking what you're looking for, we'll ask the question of "what do you have to offer?"

Please, no one answer "nothing."

Go!

My (physical)disabilities, don't keep me from being:

1. Loyal
2. Honest
3. Kind
4. Principled
5. Athletic
6. Interesting conversationalist

I think I can offer a much healthier mindset than the toxic and self loathing one I carried for decades. I now believe I'd be better at looking for and actually thinking I deserve someone I see as at least equal. I don't have the whole needing to rescue others mindset, nor do I think I need to be manipulating because of a lack of self. I still have esteem issues, but I know, and have been told I'm a better and different person than who I was when everything totally went to ashes. Shoot, the fact I even typed that where others could read it is new for me.

I don't know how to be an interesting conversationalist, but I would like to be one, and I am willing to at least try to be one.

Some hints would be nice though, some pointers in the right direction, or some allowance to not be interesting all the time, knowing that I am trying, and I do want to be more interesting than this, I just don't know how
(because I've had a hard time getting my life together/fitting in anywhere/dealing with feeling like I'm incapable of being good at anything and feeling stuck being someone I'm not that happy about being).

I guess that's more what I would like to offer, than what I actually do offer.

One of the ways that can work short term is ask others questions about themselves that you might have similar interests in. I think most people have a hard time going past generalities such as the weather or current pop culture trends, but asking open ended ones, such as you did, can help. Eventually I'll ask someone how they do that post copy thing in their replies so said person knows I'm addressing them.

Insanity. I can offer complete and utter insanity.

Still this.

That's an interesting thread.
Well, it might be dumb to say, but I have love to offer. I think it's the right kind to, the simpleness of wanting and being, for no particular reason. Spending time with and appreciating someone for whom they are, instead of whom I want them to be.
Oh. And unrelenting sarcastic teasing. Not even complex or thoughtful either, just first degree dumb jokes and general annoyance, like that buzzing fly you can't kill

I offer honesty and sincerity

Loyalty, friendliness, flexibility, a sense of humor

Again, another good question.....

I can offer you a short skinny weakling with a bunch of insecurities, someone who has been through quite a lot medically speaking but is still here and still smiling, Someone who is more a realist and takes each day as it comes, who very much appreciates what they have rather than what they could of had, who will be faithful, open and honest, who will do anything they can to help a someone in need, who will be with you by your side through all the good times as well as the bad times and who will accept and love you for who you are.

I bring….

An obsessive level of love, its like im your number 1 fan that never leaves

Constant questions, who doesn't wanna debate at 2 am… I know I do

Star trek and anime marathons in bed, im talking hours of it and yes I will mouth out key quotes as they happen.

Loyalty I wont cheat but I will flirt constantly, its a condition called Histrionic personality disorder (what a mouthful that was )

Clinginess that’ll make you feel so trapped you’ll think you’re back in the womb

In short I bring.. nothing any normal man wants

Don't own an old fashioned leather wallet anymore, so if that's what you are talking about you are out of luck
