He/She Would Never Be Interested In Someone Like Me. | Relationship Issues

You have to be quite confident to believe in yourself and not question am I good enough//////That what one part of me says the other is sod them I know I am good enough prob why I still single ........... Bit of Dorian Gray in me I think..indecisive me thinks.

You may think me conceited [and I don't care if you do] but I try to work on the theory that anyone who has not responded to my email is either far more conceited than I or sverely lacking in judgement and, therefore not worth bothering about. Any that do not fall into those categories I put down to minor errors of selection on my part, understandable if I am judging only from profiles.

Even I am not perfect, after all

Maybe you were thinking of Charlie Brown who was pretty indecisive; but "wishy, washy" was the term used to describe him. Judging by some of your posts elsewhere you are anything but that.

I know that Dorian Gray wanted to get into pictures and did, in fact, star in one.

At one time I was incredibly conceited but now I am the pinnacle of perfection!

Is that not the perfect conceit?     

Give the dog a bone! 

We each have our own reality; we see our own worlds with our view of its people, especially those people special to us.   This means that in the eyes of someone who loves you, you become unique. Forget comparisons.

That is true.  And you should be loved.  That is known as unconditional love.  Love you no matter what you've done or where you've been.

No ifs or ands or buts!!!!

And always forgive you!!

And that is how it should be....

I disagree.

There are ordinary people whose role model is Avolekiteshvara, aka: Kwan Yin, Manjushri, The Madonna - alive and well and practising compassion today.

We could study them and make the world a much better place.

I'll be happy with the love of my animals lol. Given up on men.

That is a generallisation.

Annnnd compassion is not gender specific.

Oh please DC !!

I had hoped for better from a fellow pedant.

I grant that there are exceptions but what I said was "all too often". In fact, by referring to some of the exceptions you merely reinforce my statement.

No a generalisation would be .. i've given up on most men.

I have given up on all men unless 1 proves to be the different one.

Oh dear, oh dear, what are you dear people thinking of?

DC, m'erstwhere colleague, LL's statement that she had "given up on men" was an absolute (nearly a Freudian slip there.....I'd missed the "n" off "men") not a generalisation.

She subsequently qualified of that statement but her following statement to the effect that she's given up on men "unless 1 proves to be" different is surely a fallacy.

To find the "different" one she must continue to search for him or, at least, respond to his contact. This means, of course that she cannot have given up on men at all.
The alternative, which I believe she would find unthinkable, is that the right man for her is a woman
