Lots of people are like this. Like myself. It doesn't matter really.


Does it not bother you that you are mediocre and your life is relatively insignificant? Does it not distress you to think one day you may be forgotten and yet others who are great are remembered by millions?

Bitchy as hell, my point precisely


She's right though.

A couple years back I was a skinny dweeb with terrible skin, a haircut that aged me horridly. I was the kind of guy the girls would treat as an invisible entity.

I sorted all that **** out.

Fast forward 2 years and now girls can barely keep their hands off me (no joke). When I go out I get girls saying the most obscure **** ('im so happy I met you'), taking me by the hand and leading me to the dancefloor, initiating make outs etc

Most people have it in them to look attractive but do little about it.

Why does it bother you?

Reread Paradise Found. Whatever counsellors convince me to think of myself, if I do not achieve results in the form of great success, I am lying to myself, I am lesser tha them.

The main compliments I seem to receive from the few people that I know is that I'm nice/lovely/sweet/friendly/funny but yeah seemingly never the aforementioned two qualities, it would just make me feel kinda good if people could say that I'm handsome or intelligent as well :daydreaming: (& preferably not family or older people to be totally honest). Anyway I dunno why I made this thread really :erm: Anyone else who can empathise perhaps?...


Show us a picture of yourself?

Is filling his head with lies going to be any less harmful in the long term ?

I'm not Nate and if you think im some arrogant narcissist trying to undermine his confidence your wrong.

I was once in a similar position to his and at times I had thoughts as dark as yours. My confidence was incredibly small. But I improved myself.

Sometimes as hurtful as the truth might be its a wholly necessary boot ine right ddirection.

There is no reason to know that OP is not already objectively quite any X positive trait. The nature of perfectionism is go never be happy withojt anything less than perfection so I will always be a little self loatjing with my current mindset.

Nice spot of sexism there. Guys like you complain when you get sympathy compliments - "omg its so patronising when girls tell me I'm sweet" - yet when someone is actually honest and most importantly constructive, you don't want to hear it.

Your bitterness aside, what I said is true. It's all about basic branding - what separates you from every other person out there? You can't put a can of blank white label beans on the shelf and expect it to sell. In other words it's rare for people who make no effort to get compliments.
