I get the feeling that I have done something wrong, but I don’t know what it is and no one will tell me.
I get a call from a friend, who hasn’t called me in over ten years, which I thought was nice. He invites me over to visit and then after I visit him a couple of times; he stops calling and starts making excuses. I have not done anything bad, but this seems to be a reoccurring theme. I am always polite whenever I visit someone.
I get a call for me to visit them but they never ever visit me. Then they stop calling me and I wonder what it is that I have done.
I think to myself that maybe I am meant to be alone!
When I meet women, they always tell me to get a girlfriend but I don’t really think that women like me. Why I hear you ask? Maybe it’s because I’m boring, dependable, hard working, tidy, clean, well dressed and love to help other people whenever I can.
Perhaps if I was a cheating B***ard and treated them like scum, I might have more joy. The problem is that I can’t be like that and believe in respect.
I guess I a dinosaur that will die out like the dodo bird.

You would think that, but once they have used me for a set task, I never hear from them again.
You don’t need to get the “bad boy” image. Because being the way you are right now, you won’t know how to do it and you might just come off as a jerk just because you will be trying to fake the “bad boy” routine. “Bad boys” are natural, they’re not made or fake. It’s just the way they are. But so are “Good boys” such as yourself that is why when “Bad boys” try to fake being “Good boys” they come off as phony and most people see that. Their bad ways betray them and in the end they are what they are without mistake.
Eventually you will find somebody who will like you for the way you are and when she does find you, watch out! She will not let you go and you will make her the happiest woman in the world. Have a little patience. Love will find you when you least expect it.
As far as the people who call you out of the blue, I’m guessing they just want to see what they can get out of you. That could be either financially or something tangible that they can get out of you. Forget them! They’re not worth your time or effort. Try to look around you and see what is there. Sometimes we look in places where we’re not supposed to look and the people that we’re looking for are right in front of us.
You’re right!
Thanks for the guide regarding talking to people. I do a lot of what it says, I seemed to hit this wall and then I get lost.
Maybe I need to learn patience!
Go get’em mate. Let me know if you need anything else. By the way 37 is not old!
I love to help, not for any reason other than I can. I don’t expect to get anything in return but, it would be nice just to get a phone call once in a while, just to find out how I am.
maybe your really annoying, or immature? I had the same problem back when I was in school, and only later found out that I was annoying as hell.
That is possible I guess. I’ll have to think about that.
Hey sry to ask, but why do you have a pink stuffed animal as ur profile pic? I mean girls aren’t necessarily interested in guys that like pink stuffed animals. Not to be rude or anything, I was just wondering
oh i forgot. and this is a bit more important since what i said up there ^^^ seems a bit more dickish than it really is. Who needs them? They are probably jerks deep down at heart that you shouldn’t be wasting your time with anyway.
I have always liked cute cuddly toys. When I was young there was a TV program called Bagpuss. That’s where that toy came from. It was originally red in the TV series but the colours ran out and they stayed with the pink look.
I have about a hundred stuffed toys behind my chair. I have kept them for when I am fortunate enough to have children of my own.

Do you mean by “them” women in general? Because then the answer is anyone who doesn’t want to be alone with no gf. I’m not trying to generalize I was just wondering if you were. But also if someone stops calling you it’s upsetting but it doesn’t mean they are jerks imo.
Most of these people are men. I would understand it more if it was a women. I generally cut women more slack than men; being as I’m a man.
Also dave1971199, do you call the ppl who have call you? Because if not them maybe it’s a case of whoever stopped calling you not knowing if you we’re interested at all (in friendhip or what have you). There are 2 ways to a friendship.
But yeah just a piece of advice I guess, girls don’t usually look for guys who like stuffed animals in particular. it’s fine to like them why not, but it’s just a more girly thing to like i guess. It’s like you liking a girl who likes to have ab muscles or something.
sounds like you might be one of “Them”. and the them i was referring to was other humans in general, but especially the ones that don’t appreciate you. But if you want to talk about women. yeah, who needs em? Most of em will just cheat on you, or break your heart. Some will do much worse. Very few are really worth the amount of time and effort we invest in them. Guys aren’t a picnic either though.
I know! I’ve seen what men do to their partners and then they wonder why they hate them. They just look at me strangely when I just put my hand on my face and sigh!

yeah the idea of “them” is a funny one. you left me thinking now that ur one of “them”. I really didn’t mean to be rude I’m just being blunt and straight to the point in my questions, to try to clarify things. But yeah, really there is no “us” or “them”, there are only individuals.
Also dave1971199 if you are a guy and you like stuffed animals I’m not saying it’s bad at all. I liked mine as a kid and I keep them I just don’t play with them anymore lol. But it depends on age, I’m an adult now at any rate.
Now that is funny. They just sit behind my chair doing nothing. I don’t play with them, I just like the look of them and they add colour to the room.
what he really means is that it would probably weird most people out. but you can always wait for someone else likeminded to you to come along. They’ll understand.
and cebola, i was kidding. (about you being one of them. your totally not cool enough to get in their club. I hear its pretty exclusive)
it’s funny how that works, the good people who try so hard, usually end up being hated by everyone. and the retards who r conceited and don’t think of anyone but themselves r always the people who get the most attention and care. try to ignore all of the conceited people. and don’t turn urself into one of them either. let people like u for who u r. and if they dont, then they shouldn’t matter to u. sometime u will find someone who likes u for u and then it wont matter what everyone else thinks.
