Well here I am still, been going to a myriad of events, and setting up multiple projects. Most of which have been designed to distract me from my recent bout of loneliness.
Don't believe that women want jerks. It isn't who you are, and the world could use less assholery in it. But women of substance like *partners*, ya know? Courtesy is lovely to the ear and soul, but more than that is not only safe to show, but desired. Chronic nice guys end up with users, the same way that chronic assholes end up with conniving bitches or beaten
Point the First -- I want to agree with R and T who both make excellent points. Point the Second -- You are going through a process. Which takes time. I know that it can be frustrating to hear that but, its true. Being impatient with yourself is not going to do anything except make the now seem longer. You are a fantabulous person. And totally, totally worth all the work you are doing for yourself.
Mmm, cuddling. It was great to see you at first Wednesday.
I go through the envious stages, and I get the pissed off stages, though I can usually throw my anger at "society" for marginalizing single people rather than at the couples themselves.
And, its also important to note that the people we *think* have great and amazing love lives? Most of them dont, or even if they do, they have other issues that we dont know about. The times that I catch myself thinking "this other person is better/smarter/prettier/sexier etc than I am", I just remember that everyone has problems, and just because I cant see them does not mean they dont exist.

Looking for that one that deals with gamers specifically...can't find what I'm looking for, but I may be confusing it with http://www.plausiblydeniable.com/opinion/gsf.html .
