So I just got set up on a blind double date with my roommate and his girlfriend. The girl that she set up with is way, way out of my league. At least as far as looks go. Plus this girl knows nothing about me, so she'll be expecting some good looking guy and instead she'll get me: the ultra nervous and awkward three-hundred pound hairy guy with thick glasses and bad teeth. Throw in the fact that I'm a staunch liberal and a smoker and she'll run away at first sight. I know this is irrational, but at some point between elementary school and job corps I started to ignore the girls that I felt were out of my league. If a girl is too good looking, or too smart, or too refined, I just don't pay any attention to them. I know it's all about my deep seeded insecurities, and I'm sure this is the reason I still haven't found anybody to date. I don't know what else to say about this. I guess what makes me the most wearie is my roommate's girlfriend's intentions. I know it's all a ploy to get him to take her on a date, but why should I get involved. On the other hand, what's the worst that can happen? The worst that can happen, every bad date from every bad movie that I've ever seen. From the Judd Law character in Fast Times at Ridgemont High, to most of the characters in American Pie. Ugh, I watch too many movies, and I have to be at work in 7 hours, so I bid you good night.

Good luck! 1) being a staunch liberal is a trait I and many New Zealand women would consider desirable.
2) Enough with the negativity
3) How are the girls who you DO date supposed to feel: they are neither smart, excessively attractive or refined?
4)WOMEN WANT TO FEEL SPECIAL!!!!!!

Get updating, I have nothing to read without you!!
How did the date go? Did you even go? How did she react to you? What about ur craiglist ad? How have u been feeling?
Don't give up, I believe you will find someone who's right for you. Stop considering it lowering your standards. Learn to value different qualities than beauty in a woman eg intelligence, sweet natured, caring, emotionally inteliigent, good listener. sean kingston was onto something when he sang about Beautiful Girls. And he is a big guy too but all my mates want to shag him!
