Historical and statistical analysis have proven only one thing: there will (much more than likely) forever be persistence in my current state of singlehood, and I am unable to change this. Let me elaborate.
"forever be a persistence in my current state of singlehood" - Shurlz.
Yes, I am apparently narcissistic enough to quote myself, and apparently, I must use "apparently" in every article.
Anyhoo, the reason I say this is simple.
At the time of the writing of this article, I'm 26. I estimate the time of my actually trying to get a girlfriend at around when I was 18 or so. This means that for the last EIGHT years I have experienced nothing but failure in this regard. I'm not talking inability to find a life partner here. I'm talking about the inability to find an actual girlfriend. Based on what I observe in the real world, I have to come to the conclusion that a guy finding a girlfriend is amongst the most basic and easy to accomplish of male functions. What person would do anything that fails for eight years? Learning a musical instrument, learning a trade, a skill, doing a course at a university? Finding a girlfriend should take much less time than any of these things. I have to assume that failure in this regard for this length of time would mean that I currently have an inherent inability to decrypt the girlfriend puzzle.
"I am unable to change this" - Shurlz
Quoting myself again.
What I mean by this is that there are things that my conscience won't allow me to do. However, those are the things that it seems that I have to do to get a girlfriend. Things like being able to be a jerk-who's-not-really-a-jerk-who-can-once-in-a-while-not-be-a-jerk-and-show-a-little-improvement-to-give-her-hope-that-I'm-changing type of person. Say what you want, ladies, but for the vast (over 99%) majority of you, nice guys are boring, and non-nice guys are exciting. Also, complaining about not being able to find nice guys is exciting.
Therefore, since I cannot be exciting to actual women as I am, and I can't change who I am, I withdraw from the game. Shurlz, retired at 26 due to a rejection-related injury.
Sigh. (No real conclusion here, I guess)
