There really ought to be a DISLIKE button for trolls... too many dislikes and you're banned from MI. Then the troll would just crawl back under the bridge.

You guys really need to look up the definition of trolling, offering a completely logical and well thought out argument, which in this case is the truth, is not trolling. Watch this video, it explains my point, my point is supported by SCIENCE, in studies conducted by DOCTORS. How did any of you even get into university? So clueless.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FB1oMfs8nWY


In this video, the people with high numbers ended with high numbers, and same with the low numbers and same with numbers in the middle. This happens in real life, just like the motherf*cking dude with the Ph.D explained and said it does in the video, if you get rejected again and again from the opposite sex, you lower your standards. If you get a lot of offers from the opposite sex, you raise your standards. The truth hurts, but this is how the world works, it doesn't mean you guys have to cry about it and claim troll because your feeble minds can't come up with a counter argument.

It can take quite a bit of effort to ignore people like that online. What's really annoying is that 80% of them wouldn't make a peep in a real social setting but love to harass other people behind the veil of internet anonymity.

Just keep ignoring their posts and they'll get bored and leave

It was also a learning experience for you, from now on, you will probably never ask a guy out as good looking as the one that rejected you, because you know it would be pointless and you fear rejection, and you will only ask out guys who are on the same level as you.
So...what happens if you ask out someone who is less attractive and still get rejected? That happened to me (years ago...)!

I would just like to point out that Souldier's so-called "real name" is "Intelligent Being."As far as what you call yourself goes, I don't think you can get much more conceited than that.

Damn. I never thought that a thread that I made would have this many replies.

Again, thank you everyone for all the advices, replies and suggestions. I have read through all of them (and I mean ALL OF THEM) and I have found quite a lot of good information.

And I agree with the guys being just as shy as girls; gender doesn't separate guys and girls in terms of capabilities.

Also, lolwtf @ troll pic.



P.S. Sorry for not replying earlier - I have been busy with work.

I don't think the attractiveness thing matters unless you're interested in somebody really shallow. A super hot person still looks for what you can offer them that's different and unique and considerate and caring - not how many abs your abs have.

Oh, that's not his real name? I just assumed his parents had planned to raise him as a douchebag, so they gave him a name to match.

LOL I got asked out by a guy who was gay once. I don't think he was actually POSITIVE he was gay yet, but I could tell he was. I didn't even want to go, I happened to go to the bathroom and came back to find that my friend had agreed to meet him and a friend to double date. I told her he was gay and she said "so what?" THAT was a disaster.

dude your point of view is just for short term matters :/ of course at start you are going to look at appearance but thatz just in the end a small factor, honestly after you meet the person and get to know them the whole "1-10" crap gets thrown out the window, unless your in a relationship just for sexual experiance which really shouldnt even be considered a relationship the attractiveness isnt a big of a thing as you think cause once you get to know the person and they have a really great personality you tend to want to hang out with them more and spend more time with them and eventually gradually you might develop feeling for em. that being said doesn't mean thats always the case cause for some people appreance is just too much of a big deal :/ but i know many ppl who are considered a "4-5" to get with "8-10" so that Doctor can take his ph.D explination and shove it up his or his as*s, which ever one you prefer.
