"Some of my friends were very beautiful, and usually lonely, because the only men who ever asked them out were either looking for a trophy on their arm, or obnoxious losers."
I don't have trouble believing this. It sounds plausible. On the other hand, even if it is true, it leads to the result that if you -do- ask her out, she'll -assume- that you're looking for a trophy or you're an obnoxious loser -because- you asked ;) Damned if ya do...
Qwinn
cool.
MAP you said, 'A fellow employee, I'll call him Jim, spent time cringing behind the door talking about what a complete bipolar, self absorbed, nut, Sherry is and he can't get far enough away from her. The next nite she was talking about how interested Jim is in her, but that he is just too shy to really open up. She's waiting for him to finally become brave enough declare his attraction to her.'
Great example!!!
Does this happen often to you? Are you, perhaps, attracted mostly to women you consider out of your league, just to make excuses for not dating?
I think we've all seen that. Cringe-inducing, isn't it? They come up with the most convoluted rationalizations for something really quite simple and straightforward.
Generally, you can spot the differences :^)
