Poll: Any Romantics out there?

[Dramatic Flare]

I've given up on trying my luck at dating in general because to me the rewards don't even come close to risk's one has to take now a days. You might be able for a few days but in time like most things it'll go bad and turn to dust with enough time. The one main thing that drives me insane is that none of my friends or people I talk online with have been able to give me a real reason as to why I shouldn't give up about this stuff and why is it so important that I try it out or why I shouldn't just pack it up and become a shut in.

maybe i can't give u a reason why u should but maybe ill just run this by you

perhaps love doesn't have to last forever, maybe if it's something that no matter how short u still wouldn't trade away that time for anything else in the world?
(i know the wording in there sucked hard, but i think i got my point across)

Somewhat but it really doesn't answer my questions about it.

AS far as being a shut in goes, being grounded to her house for a summer with nothing to do, and no ability to contact the outside, is what caused my ex to almost commit suicide. I'm not saying you'll commit suicide if you become a shut in, but you do realize there will be a psychological effect from the loneliness, correct?

They are weak that is all.

If you seriously contemplate suicide, The problem with loneliness comes with being alone in ones mind. If you keep yourself busy then you have less time to think about well killing yourself. The psychological effect from loneliness if bestowed on by yourself.

see, here's the problem with that: she had run out of things to do. The house was spotless, the books all read, the television unplugged...
So, unless you're going to start subsistence farming, you've got a high chance of running out of things.

Exercising would be good to take off 2-3 hours but you said shes in a house which makes running pretty much impossible..Hmm. Wait? The TV was only unplugged? Wah?

I voted "Hopeless romantic"

Me feelings on the "hopeless" are the following:

Nowadays, if you were unlucky enough to be born a guy ... and not one of the attractive ones (you know who I mean, there was one in your high school)... anyway the big problem is ... girls either don't want you to be romantic because they think it is cheesy and you are eternally branded as the not so attractive big cheese or they do want you to be romantic but only if you look like Johny Depp (who apparently tickles a lot of girls ... you know).

About having no game, that is another story ... you can still have game and be a hopeless romantic, it is how you pursue it that counts.

Even if you are not a Willy Wonka kind of guy and the only thing you have in common with Johny Depp is a bad taste in facial hair (e.g. yours truly) you can still have game ... but probably you should spend less time on internet forums and more time talking to women in the real world.

Anyway being an hopeless romantic is one notch higher than just being a plain masochist and our time is gone.
