Why do they not hook you up with the taken hot outgoing friends... Let's think. Because they're outgoing, hot, and taken. So you get whichever one they feels needs the most help, be they ugly, beautiful and shy, or for whatever other reason, without a mate. Any way, you obviously need their help too, maybe they pity both of you and set you up? You're the one asking to be set up, after all. Also, woo, unbanned, time to "flame" some nubs
op, I cannot relate to your situation, but I want to ask if I may, why, knowing that your female friend has hot friends, don't you pick one of them you especially like and ask your friend to introduce you to that particular girl, instead of asking for a blind date? also, I assume if I had a male friend who asked me to fix him a date, I might decide that the guy lacks self-confidence and in no way then I would hook him up with any of my hot confident friends. because why the f would they want to have a date with a guy like that?
I wouldn't mind too much what she looked like so long as she wasn't fat and if she wore clothes that turned me on then I'd be happy I got set up with her and had the chance to try and screw her. Even if i knew i wouldn't want to go out with her properly. If we had sex that night and she was pissed that it was just a bit of casual sex then that's her problem.
Guys, guys, guys, what the fuck - she's ugly, she's an alf? I'm a 6.5 or 7 out of 10! According to who exactly? Got big designs on yourself then? Grow a pair and get out and find yourself a girl friend. Expecting others to set you up with someone who meets your expectations? Maybe they're trying to tell you something. Shallow fuck springs instantly to mind!
it's when another person actually tries to set you up with them. you weren't needing the help, but rather it is simply offered. it's not like it's a one sided thing. i'm sure if a girlfriend set you or another women up with a really unattractive man - you are not always going to jump into his arms. it's just a matter of fact - i know a girl who met someone guy on the internet, when they met in person for the first time (with me and her best friend / my girlfriend, was a double date). she literally laughed him off the face of the world, i had to hang about with the poor guy all afternoon and he was actually rather nice. men and women are the same. i don't know why we are painted as the dogs.
Im thinking its your friends.I've been involved in a lot of set ups and I always pick attractive people.Or at least ok looking people who are highly compatible.
Because girls only have ugly friends so they look hotter in comparison. Derh, c'mon boys, common logic.
Why don't you try deciding on a specific friend of hers you think is attractive and asking your friend to introduce you, then you set up the date? Then it's not random and you don't look like a weenie.
While I realize that you have only your own empirical data to go by, to apply this statement to all women every where is a bit silly don't you think? I got hooked up with my hot wife through a mutual friend (A GIRL no less!!! :O ) Guess it's back to por--drawing board?
Ok hang on a bit, many people have misinterpreted what i was trying to explain. 1) I didn´t ask for a blind date, It would feel like begging hehe and it´s not my style. 2) when I said i was a 6.5 maybe 7 / 10 in my book it´s normal, not "stud" material, I was just trying to say that im not terrible looking, but im not great either. 3) My question was basically why don´t female friends take the inniciative to introduce (not necessarily on a blind date) a friend of theirs? Is it because they think im not good enough for them, or just jelousy or something? 4) I have the balls to ask girls out, which I´m doing a lot, I feel that im getting closer and everything, and i´m not picky at all, like some of you said, beggars can´t be choosers, BUT I´m definitely not getting lucky. 5) And I was referring to the "putting a good word out for me" kinda of deal, sometimes it makes things a bit easier. 6) I´ve seen so many hotties having horrible boyfriends, really ugly ones or just so different that you can´t understand what´s going on . What I´m trying to say with this is that attitude is what really matters, not looks, with the right attitude you can get anyone you like...almost, I see it everyday, beauties with beast-like creatures as boyfriends. This is definetely my issue, a man´s issue. Sorry for posting it here and thank you all for your input, more is welcome of course .
I agree with most the people here, all my "hot" friends are taken. But I always warn someone before I try setting them up with a...not so hot one, at least they'll know what they're getting into and it saves feelings from being hurt all around. Female friends don't take the initiative to introduce you to their friends because it's not their job to play matchmaker. And possibly because as a gender, we tend to overanalyze and overthink everything, so they probably don't see anything good coming from hooking you up with a friend. Chicks are already ten tons of drama, you add a matchmaking scenario to the puzzle and good Christ. Your thing about hot girls with ugly guys...that's because the ugly guys have personalities and had the guts to say hello and take them out. If you're trying and trying and still getting no results, maybe you might want to do a self-evaluation and determine whether or not you have some improvements to make on yourself. It doesn't mean you have to have a personality makeover by any means, but self-improvement is part of growing up and really helps in the relationship department.
This. Self rated 7/10? Which probably means you are a 5. And in starting this thread, asking everyones opinion you didnt bother giving details about your age, job, buying power....which means you are no Einstein And asking other girls for dates, means you arent trying all that hard. What they call confidence or a guy that "knows what he wants" really just means a guy thats going to put some effort in, anything else is a red flag - some guy 3 months in thats just going to sit on the couch not paying attention playing Xbox Your friend did probably set you up with who she thought was a correct match. Aside from that, the hot girl with the guy that looks like Seth Rogen thing, its the opposite of what you think. Too many guys whine but just dont put any effort into their appearance. So there arent enough hot guys anyway, and the ones that are, are either gay or total players. The amount of straight guys that dont even wash properly, have 3 day old pizza stains on their shirt and complain the cheerleader types dont want to jump on their dick. Or the ones that do put lots of effort into the relationship land the hot girl (allow themselves to get totally whipped) but then still dont bother hitting the gym, getting some abs or a decent haircut....defies belief
I agree with both of you. I know a lot of guys who whine that they can't meet women but never work on themselves. My brother in law is a great example of what not to do, in his 20's, works at a grocery store, lives with his parents, greasy and smelly, easily agitated, mamas boy with no interests but watching TV. He whines that girls ignore him and to paraphrase "they just like stupid jerks". He asks me for advice, and I want to tell him; take care of your health and appearance, get to work on a direction in life and women will take notice. It doesn't even have to be wealth, just be making something of yourself. But he gets all pissed, says that a girl should "like him for him" not because he has a good job or is a success. As if that would make a woman shallow. But you have to think, how often is a person with nothing they care to be successful at very interesting to be around? And how likable is someone who expects unconditional admiration?
You seem desperate, my friend. Who are you to judge someone's appearance if you are going on blind dates yourself? You obviously aren't dating anyone if you are resorting to blind dates. This also means that you can't find someone on your own if you are agreeing to do go on these dates. Why don't you go to the bar/club/titty bar/grocery store and find your own caliper of woman? Because your friends are obviously SO UNBELIEVABLY TERRIBLE for hooking you up with "Alf." Beggars can't be choosers my dear!
