You don't respect mah authoritah!
Yeah I kind of fit the social outcast cliche and aside from my interactions with a few acquaintances, I either ignored a lot of people or was treated with contempt by douche bags. Still happens today of course, but admittedly a lot of it is brought on by my own action as that was juvenile high school bs, in that I don't venture outside of my comfort zone enough.
Right on the mark. I look decent enough, it's just that I don't know how to reciprocate a woman's advances. Usually I puss out or make a total jackass out of myself because I think I will on both occasions and it's a terrible self-fulfilling prophecy.
But I suppose the only thing I can do is move forward. No point in letting the past control me. Thanks for the advice.
