#4458 I am 23 years old guy, and at this age, I have learned a lot about liking someone and love from my past mistakes and missing out really great relationships with women because I they didn't live up to my expectations in the looks department. Listen, from experience, I can say looks do not matter in a relationship. We all grow old, our looks will all fade and we will all eventually look terrible. When it comes to liking someone and love, the only thing that really matters is the connection you make with that person and how they positively affect your life. When I was 18, 19, 20 and 21... I had so many opportunities to possibly find true love, but I missed them all because of my stubborn and shallow ways. When I turned 22, I started to think differently. At my current age, when I see men and women saying things, like, "I am forever alone"... that is your personal choice. Women don't give me the time of day anymore. Honestly, women do no talk to me anymore, and I regret not giving the women that used to show me attention a chance. But I know many of you do get attention from men and women and have turned down so many good men or women just because they didn't live up to your expectations in looks... and that isn't right. Listen, I am not trying to be a hypocrite here. I just don't want to see people giving up a chance at a real shot at a good relationship just because of their shallow ways. Take it from me.

#4458 in reply to my confession (#4376). So, I took the initiative to ask the girl (my friend) that I was crushing on out on a date. Instead of my original plan, I called her at night and told her how I felt about her and asked her on a date. She seemed really flattered that I took the time to call her, explain my feelings to her and ask her out. What hurt about doing all this is that she said that she would go out with me on the date... but only as a friend. She said that she isn't looking for a relationship right now and it would be unfair for her and myself to go out with me when she has no feelings other than friendship for me. While I respect her feelings and her honest answer, for the first time in a long time I cried after getting off that phone. I don't like many women, and I've never connected with a a woman as much as I connected with her... so it really hurt. I graduate in May and I have a job lined up here within Denton. Kinda sucks that I won't have another opportunity to meet more women in college.

#4458 I know my chances are slim as fuck but I'll post anyway.You are a lady that walked into my store (a clothing store) today, march 4th sometime between 3 and 5 pm. You were about to walk out when I told you I liked your hair; it was somewhat red. You then proceeded to tell me how complicated the coloring was, and I told you it was the perfect blend. I wish we could have talked more but you were about to leave, If you ever see this please drop a comment.

#4458 I met my girlfriend through the internet and the day I met her in person was the day I decided to do something special, a picnic during our break between classes. Time passed and I’ve been with her for a year and I have learned to love her like no other person. She is a real sweetheart and is very inspirational. She’s been a straight A student and has pushed through her school work like no other person I have ever met. Although I am very happy that she has made it this far, there is one thing that makes me sad, something that I have locked up inside of me for sometime now. She will graduate one year earlier than me because she’s on an early graduation plan. Once she graduates, she plans on leaving me and moving to the border towns because of her job occupation. Also, she is hooked onto her past relationship that lasted 3 years which hinders our relationship from advancing as well, I still think the guy was an abusive person and did right to leave him (girls get too hooked onto their first, but I understand because it is a very intimate thing). She believes that we are headed for two different paths and that we will no longer be able to continue the relationship after a year. But the funny thing is, I know she loves me and I know she will cry when she leaves (from what I’ve read from her diary. The point is that although I know what is going on I think I have decided that instead of bringing it up to her, I will keep quiet and enjoy the limited time we have by having fun like we’ve always done, holding her for as long as I can and simply letting her know how much I love her. I’ve decided that the day she finally leaves, will be the day where I will let it all out and have one last glance at her before she leaves. Although I may not be able to change the inevitable of her moving, maybe I can have an even greater impact on her in a year. Maybe I can indirectly convince her to give the long distance relationship another chance
One does not simply forget someone this special, ever.
Should I take another approach to this?

#4458 Hey guys, I'm a super big football fan. Absolutely love the game. Kills me that I don't have the size to play it professionally or anything. So I follow our football team like crazy, and as you can imagine, the majority of my time here has been rather disappointing. But last season though... Last season was fucking awesome. Going to that bowl game, rushing the field, slapping players on the back after we had won, fucking magical. Next year is my fifth and last year here, and it would just be the greatest if us students could come out to every game and cheer for the Mean Green like they earned it last season. I'm wanting to fill Apogee, like have people standing because all seats are taken. I want the visiting team to just fucking hate it. Offsides every drive because they can't hear the QB and didn't think to prepare for noise at UNT. Guys, let's get fucking wasted every Saturday and go fucking nuts in that stadium. That would just be amazing. Thanks for reading.

#4458 Is there a special comb for neckbeards? If not, that'd be good business!

#4458 To those of you wronged by religion and by judgement,
I am a Christian that heavily believes in science. I see religious posts on this page that are highly judgmental and unnecessary to even be broadcast to the public. If a Christian has ever done you wrong, I apologize on their behalf. If you have been criticized for your sexual orientation...I also apologize on behalf of those that practice my religion. I practice Christianity because I made a choice to have a belief system and to believe in God. If you don't then that's perfectly fine! I, as should many others, love you regardless. My religion may say it is wrong, but it also says to treat everyone the way I would like to be treated and that is with love and without fear of ridicule. My fellow Dentonites, and friends. I love you. -M

#4458 I feel like I'm not making the most of my college experience. I take a full course load and make all A's, but I have no friends. I'm part of no clubs. The problem is, I'm a freshman who lives off campus for financial reasons and I have a job, soon to be two jobs. The places I work I'm always the youngest person there by at least 20 years. I feel really alone and it feels like, what's even the point of college if I don't have time to network at all? No time for internships, clubs, going out, or anything... just school, work, study, sleep, everyday.
