Am I ruined?
Am I ruined?
When I was young, I bought into the whole "quantity over quality" thing when it came to getting laid. I'm a pretty good looking guy and have always had standards, but there were always those few dogs that slipped through the cracks, and a couple I just cannot talk about. Years later (about 13 years since I lost my V-card), I have slowed down dramatically and would love to find that one girl that helps me forget about all the rest. I do understand that it will always be a struggle, but when I close my eyes and picture the girl(s) I want to marry, the struggle isn't so difficult anymore. I am aware of the age old saying amongst men: Show me a hot girl and I'll show you the guy who's sick of f*cking her. But still, I keep my eye on the ball.
So I've been in hot pursuit. I have a foot in the real world meeting women the organic way (through friends, through work, at shows, at bars, etc.), and a foot in the online world (still waiting for Match to come through for me). I admit that I am a picky mofo, VERY picky to a fault. I always find something wrong... Is her ass too big? Great body, but a face to protect it? Is her laugh annoying? Name an attribute and I've probably complained about it. I am well aware that NO ONE is perfect, and I am no exception to that rule. But perfect for me? I don't think that's too much to ask for, is it? Or maybe it is... Perhaps being as much of an "equal opportunity lender" as I was has jaded me to the traits of a woman that I should be focused on. Perhaps having had such a variety of women has turned me into a guy that will NEVER be satisfied. Who knows? If I could go back in time, I wonder if I took the approach of only sleeping with women I cared about, would have I been married long ago? I'll never know. I made my choice. Am I ruined?
So what can you women learn from this? If you want a hot guy, chances are he's been around the block and has some of the same issues I'm dealing with. Don't you dare think your sparkling personality can replace good looks. WORK OUT! Look your best at all times! This way you will be prepared for that guy if he happens upon you at the gym, Starbucks, the library, or even the gas station. You never know when "the one" is around the corner, so get to work and realize that visual appeal is the first impression. Good luck.

Ha! This blog is awesome. Touche to Jenni and Marie. RSG, you're not ruined, no. Look in the mirror and see your inner beauty. Look really hard. See it? Now kiss it. Go on, kiss the mirror. Mazel tov, you've just found your perfect mate. Please, spare the women of LA from your... "you"-ness! Brilliant.

Yes, you are ruined. No matter, us ladies still got loads of men to pick from. Many of whom aren't as douchy as you, and quite a few of whom are good looking and sweet. I smell that you are a very scared of getting hurt so you bounce from chick to chick. You're gonna have a hard time winning that perfect girl for you...you may not fit her bill...but good luck!

$20 says he's overweight. A lot of good looking guys aren't that picky. He probably thinks he's special because he got chicks at the club using lines out of The Game or The Pick Up Artist.

I hope you find & marry a supermodel... who promptly gains 59 lbs and gets adult-onset acne. That will be justice.

I was semi-understanding and with you at the beginning of this blog but by the end I am so over you. Something tells me you are not even that hot.

Wow, this is insulting. Have you considered the possibility that attractive women who work out are doing it for a reason other than just to wait around for a petty, sexist manchild to stumble upon them and wife them right up? Thank God that attractive women who work out have more dating options than this guy. It's like you regressed to a fourteen-year-old boy by the end of your post. "Am I the problem? Surely not! Women just don't try hard enough to meet my expectations."

A tad male chauvinistic…and I think the guy who wrote this is exactly the guy that the quality girls don’t want.

hmmmm... well, that's one approach. To be perfectly honest, if you find faults in nearly every girl you meet, her body isn't going to matter much. Her hair might be too blonde, she might laugh too much, she might talk too loud. I don't think picky / good looking men are ruined, I just don't think they've grown up yet. I think you'll find what you're looking for when you realize what it is you want... or better yet, when you realize what it is you don't have. Until then, you're just another hot guy looking for a hot girl... and in L.A., they're a dime a dozen. Happy hunting.
