[QUOTE=Barði;389226]Yeah funny thing that.  I had no problems finding a date when I was successful, but maybe it was because I was a sensitive and caring man.  Which is complete poo poo as really I was just a horny bastard who put on a front of a sensitive and caring man because I thought it would get me laid.

And well, I really just have no interest in dating anymore.  I realized that as long as I stay fat and broke I will never be happy with the women I attract.

Besides I need a girlfriend like a fish needs a bicycle.[/QUOTE]

Or you had no problem getting dates when you felt and radiated strength and confidence.  You were attractive when you were a pillar of strength and calm.  Conversly, when you were shattered and embittered you were not attractive.

Women are drawn to male power, as men are drawn to women's.  Beauty is a type of female power, as it can be for men as well, so is money.  Real power comes from the soul deep certainty of your own worth.  If you have that you can stand in rags in the ruins of your life with the calm certainty that you will conquor again, and while you smile and set about doing so, you will notice the gaze of women drawn to that certainty.

Look at my pictures.  I am pushing 40, thinning on top, and thickening everywhere else, and even married I get more offers now than I did at nineteen in my military top shape chasing everything in or qualifying for a skirt.  It is not the money that made you attractive, you used the money to keep score, and defined yourself as worthy when you had it.  When you found yourself unworthy you lit the big flashing "Loser" sign above your head, and that is no turnon for women.

You were actually still as potent and powerful as you were before, you simply forgot, and thus the fires that would catch the ladies eyes and hearts are banked to sullen coals and embers.

If you needed a date any more, the tour de fish would ride you down on their Norcos.
