    Wait...Are you saying that women who are needy have nothing going for themselves ?
    And would you please define needy for me ?

    By needy I mean emotional dependency. OR, seeking validation from others for your sense of self-esteem.

    To some extent these are human traits, we ARE insecure social beings, we do have affectionate and intimacy needs.

    There is just a line there that separates human needs from dependency.

    P.S. No, I'm far from drunk. I've been sober all week, waking up at 7am going to bed at 11pm everyday. Cheers.

    Noone said you were drunk. I'minmyunderwear was talking about himself, I suppose. He was drunk we he typed that thing about women being attracted to assholes. I think thats what he was saying..

    Romance is very much alive, but it is kind of hidden behind the sexual image.
    Personally, I don't care so much for sex as for romance. It is nice to fuck a beautiful girl, but it does not even come close to having a meaningful romantic relationship with someone you truly love and who truly loves you.

    A part of you feels that way. There is nothing wrong with that.

    It's blame-shifty, but we all need to defend our egos.

    The thing is, I understand you completely, my man. I would simply like to see you take more pride in the particular male challenge we both face. That's all.

    Seducing women is a male challenge. It's ours and ours alone.

    The trick is that fine line between superficiality and dependency.

    There is unfulfilling sex on the one hand, then there is emotional intimacy that morphs into dependency.

    Both are horrible.

    i wouldn't mind seeing myself take more pride in it too; that just has to wait until i don't fail at it a couple times...

    Um, I understand THAT.

    But ultimately you want to get to a place where you're prideful of simply facing the challenge itself.
