    I’ve always gotten women way out of my league because they like my personality, and they say I’m a nice person and they feel safe with me. Guys, women have the bar set pretty dam low. Just use active listening, actually care about them beyond just their body, respect them, and it helps to have fun, interesting hobby, and to really like animals. Like that’s it, fellas. I’m in my late 30s, and my last girlfriend was in her mid-20s and way outta my league. Now it didn’t work because we are at different points in our lives, but that’s nbd.

      I agree with you on that, but I usually get stuck in the just friends portion of the whole thing. Maybe I am a little too ugly?

        Nah, the thing is, you need to declare your intentions fairly early on. Like with in the first few times you hang out.

          Exactly, if you wait too long making the leap of faith, more often then not you will be already in the friend zone

      I don’t like this being a focal point, but I think it’s worth asking if you don’t mind: what is your income like? Reality being what it is, that can make a measurable difference.

        I live paycheck to paycheck while being able to save a little for fun every once in a while.

      Another thing is that a lot of really hot women don’t actually get picked up on very often, because most guys assume she’s out of their league. So if you put yourself out there, ya might be pleasantly surprised by the outcome.

    It’s a real-life thing. Look at any comedic actor from the past fifty years, and then image search up a picture of their wife. The discrepancy in physical attractiveness is almost always glaring. Humor (and money) is attractive.

      Pete Davidson looks like a homeless drug addict and he dated Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale and Emily Ratajkowski.

        People always say this but like … he is actually good looking? Not movie star good looks, but yeah his face looks good. I always assume this is coming from straight guys.

    For some reasimon I’ve never seen any one of his movies besides Happy Gilmore.

    [edit] what the hell is a reasimon? I meant to type reason in case that wasn’t clear.

            Click was SO GOOD.

            But I’m still a little mad at the betrayal by the marketing, making it seem super silly and goofy, leaving my young self unprepared for an emotional gut-punch. Lol

            It effectively did what it set out to do though, being a modern fable about where our priorities in life ultimately lead us. I think of it often, especially the way it portrays the trap of career-worship, and when I catch myself wishing time away.

            That silly movie had so much heart it might have actually shaped my young worldview a bit. Lol

            Movie was based.

              I completely agree! Idk how Sandler was able to convey so much emotion in such a silly movie, but he did an outstanding job.

      I think the first movie that I watched with him in it was Sandy Wexler… if that’s the name. I loved Richard Kiel’s performance in HG though.

      Wasn’t it Al Pacino falling for Jill? And I think Jill was Adam’s sister or something like that.

    You had no reason to use such an awful AI image for princess peach. There are so many talented artists out there. Shame on you…
