[Dating] I was told I've already made up my mind.

I was told I've already made up my mind, that I had decided that my dating life was already set in stone.

Perhaps I have. Perhaps I just know how to read the writing on the wall. Perhaps I have set a self-fulfilling prophecy, perhaps I am stupid to not follow what I actually believe.

I was told, that I am brave for continuing to perservere despite constant rejection. I was told also that I am a catch.

So many contradictions, and yet so much consistency. Caught in a void between perfect long term partner and short term desires.

Some day perhaps I am guaranteed hapiness because of the high road stance I have taken. Or so I have been told. Maybe I've just bought into an idea that is meant to make someone else profit, and yet so thoroughly do I believe it that I do not know how to be anyone else.

All I know how to do is to be the best man I can be. All I know how to do is perservere. Masochism at its finest.

Am I doomed to continue this cycle? I have no evidence to suggest otherwise.

"i have yearned for relief from the labyrinth of my past... the walls are bitter memories... the corridors are hate..." , Raven/Scot Levy WCW Monday Nitro. Monday December 29th 1997.

i still can't fucking believe they only let Raven hold the US title for 1 fucking lousy fucking day. Fuck Goldberg.



3 hours after this great speech... by a great man... Starcraft1 was released by Blizzard Entertainment.

Quote the Raven, Nevermore.

What you describe is quite vague and if that is how you present yourself to the world, I'm afraid all you will ever receive is vagueness and nothing "rock solid".
It's like that song from the 90s: "You only get what you give!" ...love that song btw...gotta google it...
"You cannot teach a man anything, you can only help him find it within himself."

I presume you're a guy. Even as a girl, I was in your shoes at one point. I was rejected by guys then because of my "nerd" and weird personality. Fixating so much on relationships can be draining. Focus yourself on other things that make you happy like playing starcraft. There's this cliche that says "great things are bound to come when you least expect it". Happened to me, so dude, the indifference game will surely pay off.

Nothing is "bound to come". It's terrible advice.
People need to take their lifes into their hands and make something happen. It's the only way, if you don't want to rely on luck.

Then again, some people get a restraining order because they tried to " make something happen" on a date...

Raven/Scot Levy spent 3 years going through barb-wire city.. .getting smashed in the head with steel chairs ; going through tables... Diamond Dallas Page could've prevented it all.

what about Raven? have you felt Raven's pain?

finally on the eve of the greatest video game release in the history of the industry Raven made Diamond Dallas Page feel his pain.

my uncle used to VCR tape every single WCW Monday Nitro. The only thing that could pull me away from Raven's great speech that weekend was "The Hammer Falls".

That campaign mission was so tough .. losing over and over again hurt me so bad...and i was just a little punk kid ...FROM the early Ghost Nuke 3 minutes into the mission TO the 2-2 Upgraded Siege Tank Push coming from the left side... i lost over and over again.

what about my pain? what about me?

From my experience on "taking it in my own hands" when it comes to dating, yeah I was rejected so many times. Living in an Asian country, girls who make the first move aren't much of the norm. well, it's just on the other side of the coin.
