Nobody will fall for me as i am now...and i'm ok with that

Honestly, I think that in my current position nobody would want to be my girlfriend. My habits are often disgusting and weird, I sound funny, I have almost no life, I am childish, etc. In fact, not only do I think that I can't get a girlfriend at my current state, but I think anyone who will still want to spend the rest of their lives together with me is insane.

Now before you think that I'm just beating myself up, I think that I do have the ability to get one and that I can change for the better, but for now I have other things to worry about. When the time comes to get one I plan to correct my habits before I start searching. But as of now, I don't think anyone would or should fall for me, and I'm OK with that.

Is it normal to hold this attitude?

    "Let someone love you just the way you are - as flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you sometimes feel, and as unaccomplished as you think you are. To believe that you must hide all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room."

      Its 2am. I fought with my boyfriend today. This quote is making me cry, but it is a good quote. Thanks for sharing it.

    So basically not only do you not care about it but you also don't want to belong to any club that will accept you as a member? I think that's pretty normal when you think little of yourself... and, quite frankly, it just sounds like you can't be arsed to be in a relationship.

            I suppose I could since I didn't thumb you down to begin with, I do't think it actually deserves one. But if you insist maybe I could help you out hehe

    i think you probably have a healthier attitude towards yourself and love than most of the people.

    It's not normal to hold this attitude, but I know what it's like for you people to attempt to be normal, continually saying "I'm normal", you think you people are normal but you're not!

    • If I thought this was normal why did I post this on "Is It Normal"?

    Its normal, I thought like that before, but then I realized there are so much more unique people around the world outside of my own city. Just make sure you love yourself and the rest will fall into place.

    Start a collection of blow-up dolls. Almost like a personal harem. Many people say a doll is the best because she never says, "No".

      She never says 'Yes' either, which is why she'll never be the best.

      (Until they have realistic sexbots who can say yes... Then man can finally exterminate womankind and replace her with submissive robotic slaves which I'm sure is exactly what Martin Luther King meant by "I have a dream")

    In some ways, I hold the same creed. I guess just less pessimistic, way less pessimistic the more I think about it. Anyways, it just sounds like you're aware of what makes a person conventionally attractive and you just don't fit it. You're aware that you're a cool guy, but since most people tend to fall under the same umbrella of what they want, it's only logical to conclude that you're going to be single. I'm not really phrasing this well, am I? Anyways, I understand your point of view, but I have no way of knowing if thinking like this is how others think as well.
