I'm now 19, still single, never even had a girlfriend, never even kissed. I have one friend I rarely see, an occasional call from Moleland is the only thing to break the norm, and childhood trauma causes me to hide from the world, reluctant to speak to anyone other than you guys.

Yes, I am a total coward. I fear almost everything nowadays, and I hate the world. This town is dominated by Pathetic Chavs and Goth wannabes who make my life a misery, and I so long to beat the crap out of them.

Yet I continue... yet I refuse to stop aiming for my goals. Why? Because unlike others who have nothing to hope for, I never give up. I keep pushing myself every day. If a man never gives up on his hopes, the chances are he shall succeed or die trying. Now I long for companionship, I want to live in a society that treats me with respect, and I plan to push on until I find that companionship, and I find that respect.

Women seem to dislike me, but perhaps I just need to find the right one. So i'll keep searching, keep trying, keep failing until I succeed. Impossible is a word to make a man feel better when he quits. I won't give up. Somone out there is waiting for me, and I shall find them!

Remember folks. Don't give up on your dreams, push yourself every day, and keep fighting for what you believe in! If you can do this, you are worthy of being human!

~The TIN Man, Determined to make a brighter tommorrow!

Dont worry - I haven't kissed or had a girlfriend either and I am about your age. I am not exactly average of my age group either - I listen to classical music, read heavy literature for fun and dress like a 50 year old. My total consersations with girls amount to about 5 minutes.

Good on you for not giving up. Fight the bastard world back.

So.... what exactly makes you pathetic?

You know, the words geek and nerd are a badge of honor among certain circles. Perhaps you just havent found the right circle of friends yet.

firstly, you're not a loser darlin', in fact I would say you're the complete opposite for refusing to give up! secondly, being a nerd doesn't make you pathetic, none of the stuff you said in the first post does, again, you're the complete opposite to pathetic!

Nor me - although that may have had something to do with six years of single-sex education... I am working hard to change that now, lol.

And I have to say, you don't sound like a total coward - you sound more determined than most people!

Very kind of you my dear :fluffle: , but thats the way I see myself. Linked to my lack of self-confidence I guess.

Simple. I'm a classic loser Nerd.
well you're not the only one... hence the word "classic":p

hell i'm 20 tomorrow and i've never been kissed by a girl (properly), never had a g/f, but you have the right attitude dude! me, i've pretty much given up on the world & my hopes - but this is something i'm trying to change, to try and care about things and myself again. i need to take a leaf out of your book... you're great inspiration dude, so be proud of that :)

Simple. I'm a classic loser Nerd.

Ok, so you're 19 and never had a girlfriend, and you are scared to leave your shell, because the world is evil.

I wasn't so different myself when I was your age, and if you knew when I got my first kiss, you would readily award me the title "most pathetic girl on the planet". That aside from the fact that I still carry my shell around most of the time.
But now and then, I leave it... and hey, the world isn't as evil as it looked from in there.
Give it a try ;)

well you're not the only one... hence the word "classic":p

Why do ya think i'm trying ta get you and Tink to meet together? :D

Oh dear, we are feeling down today aren't we?

There are lots like you out there and the only one who can help you is yourself.
Open that door and step outside, the fresh air is lovely. (and before you say, "What does she know", I do believe me, I have suffered from ME/CFS for over ten years now and I can hardly bring myself to go out without someone with me, though because I have made the effort, I am improving all the time.)

As for the rest of it?
You're 19 and take the first hurdle of getting out there first, before you think that all of the female population are going to reject you. They don't even know that there is a secret treasure hidden away yet!

If you fancy a chat or a good old moan, send me a TG and I'll give you my email address.

In the meantime, where are you based and this is for you.

****HUGS****

Simple. I'm a classic loser Nerd.

I class "Nerd" as an "insult" in the same way that "intellectual" and "liberal" are insults [i.e. says more about the insulter than the insultee].

As for being [to paraphrase] a totally pathetic loser coward locked in your own little world - your posting that to open forum strongly suggests that it isn't the case.

Why do ya think i'm trying ta get you and Tink to meet together? :D
;)

Taxonomically speaking you'd be closer to a dork. A Nerd would right games in C, C++, C# or perhaps Python. A Geek would use either Fortran, Lisp, Cobol!, D or a language they invented and wrote a compiler for.

Good for you, TIN. You've got the right attitude, and there's nothing pathetic about you.

Very kind of you my dear :fluffle: , but thats the way I see myself. Linked to my lack of self-confidence I guess.
:fluffle: :fluffle: you're not alone, I often see myself as a pathetic loser but it won't last forever, one day I'm sure you'll meet a girl and she'll make you feel on top of the world, if you deserve to be happy (and you do!) you will be, that's the way the world works, it's obvious that you've been through a lot, things havn't exactly been easy for you but that's what makes you such an incredible person, that's what will make some very lucky girl fall head over heels in love with you one day

Nothing stands in the way of the TIN man!

except little red crosses :p

Heh... I'm not as sweet as you think, my dear. My mind is filled with nasty and evil thoughts, with thoughts of murdering my enemies, hurting those who cross me, and even desires that are truly evil. I keep them all bottled up, and I hope for everyones sake I never release them. Some of my thoughts disturb even me.

the fact that you keep it all bottled up and you don't want to release them shows that you're not a bad person

Sollution: Me, LG and FC take you to vegas for a week with no hotel room. You'll be so out of your shell by the end of it you'll have forgotten where you put it. (I selected Lunatic Goofballs because I feel we should have an adult around on these sorts of trips).

meh, I didn't have a girlfriend until I was 19. No biggy, just wait til you meet the right girl.


As for thoughts about murdering people, it's more common than you think...

the fact that you keep it all bottled up and you don't want to release them shows that you're not a bad person

Heh... perhaps. I have no desire for needless slaughter... well, not outside of my mind. :D

Imperial Navy, all Chavs should be exterminated!! They are a parasitic infestation! A blight upon this world!! You are better than them, never forget that! I see these filth to some extent in within Montreal - the city that I live in....

They are living proof that western civilization is decaying, is dying - And as of the last bastion of such, it is YOUR sacred duty to soldier on, to pick up your sword and to sally forth!

My advice to you is simply this: "Never surrender, never yield, never falter!!"

you're a nerd?

GOOD. nerds rule.

I guess I can sorta relate to what you're going through. I tend not to leave my house unless i'm either with a friend or going to the library. I really hate meeting new people, I can never seem to get past "Well, here we are then" in a conversation with them. The only girl I can speak to for more than 10 minutes at a time is the one I'm madly infatuated with and even then it's about morality, religion, were always arguing about something. I entertain myself by being locked in my room doing maths sums, listening to classical music and when I get tired I start reading a Clancy novel.
Were a little different where you say you're a total coward. If someone wants to make my life a mysery I'll tell them I don't like it and if they persist, I'm not afraid to get phyisical. My mother tells me I'm eccentric but I like being eccentric. I'm happy this way. It can be frustrating sometimes though. Telling somebody else your problems really does make you feel better. Thanks.

Oh well, I had my first sex at 29 - with another man. Just what I wanted.

However, I wish I hadn't wasted so much time and had had sex with my best friend when I was 16.

the fact that you keep it all bottled up and you don't want to release them shows that you're not a bad personNo, it doesn't, it just proves you're the kind of person who would be more likely to commit a murder later on. ;)

Okay, maybe that isn't true. But lack of a girlfriend doesn't make you a failure. I'm definitely not a failure and I don't have one either. Well, maybe I am a failure...you look at the universe and decide. At any rate, follow the advice of practically everyone else on this thread and you'll be fine.

~Czardas, Supreme Ruler of the Universe

Heh. I didn't have a girlfriend till I was 16, and didn't have sex till I was 20. I thought that was pretty bad, but now I see I'm not alone. ;)

More importantly... It doesn't matter. Yes, I know, you're going to say it's easy for me to say that now, but it's true. Don't get obsessed over trying to be like everyone else and feeling that they're all doing better than you. You'll just make yourself miserable for no reason.

I tend to be shy and very unsociable; like Commie Catholics, I don't like to get out and about all that much. I'm happy just being on my own at my place. I haven't had a girlfriend in, uh, quite a long while (all right, it's been over two years), but I've found out there's positive sides to being alone. Plus, in most cases the girlfriends I've had have come to me rather than the reverse, so there's a fair chance I'll meet someone again someday. And so will you. I try not to worry about it too much.

And indeed, as they say in Galaxy Quest... "Never give up; never surrender!" :D

I'm now 19, still single, never even had a girlfriend, never even kissed. I have one friend I rarely see, an occasional call from Moleland is the only thing to break the norm, and childhood trauma causes me to hide from the world, reluctant to speak to anyone other than you guys.

HEY! TIN!

What matters is how you see yourself, not how others see you. Trying to satisfy everybody else but yourself will cause a severe loss of identity. Don't worry, you'll find your rainbow! But of course, this involves yourself taking your first step outside to the world. You're 19, young and lively. Opportunities are all around you! :)

Heh. I didn't have a girlfriend till I was 16, and didn't have sex till I was 20. I thought that was pretty bad, but now I see I'm not alone. ;)

Don't worry about it. Looking at your posts your a very funny guy, love your odd sense of humour. :)

Your 19, so what. I'm 20 and only just got a girlfriend, your hardly alone or unique.

Pfft i beat J00 im 21!

And indeed, as they say in Galaxy Quest... "Never give up; never surrender!" :D
hehe i was thinking that :p

By Grabthar's hammer, you shall be avenged! ;)


edit: and what Aridd says is absolutley true... the problem/difficulty lies in getting yourself to believe it...

TIN,
I can't say I suffer from the same things you do. But, should you want it, I can help ya out.

Heh... as silly as it is to say it, I think I just need a shag. :D

Here's a tenner. Go find yourself a hooker. :D

From experience (and by that I mean by lurking on this forum) I've gathered that the worst thing people in our situation can do is whine and moan. Trust me; it really, really, really doesn't work.

And so you must play to your strength! In your case; be random! I know it's easier said than done, but if you were to go over to a girl and just spout something utterly irrelevant, with a grin, it could work.

I say could; it might not. But then, no-one here listens to me anyway. :p

So don't worry - be happy!

Ha! Everyone knows that nerds turn into evil corporate/political overlords by the time they're 40, and get to take vengeance on all those who made their lives miserable in their teen years.

You're already interested in politics (after all, you're playing NS), so you're on the right track. Start planning your rise to power. It doesn't have to be any particularly impressive power - mayor would be nice, no?

-snip-
Did you say something?
sorry

Did you say something?
sorry

Nope, I didn't say anything. Nothing at all. Don't be daft.

Very kind of you my dear :fluffle: , but thats the way I see myself. Linked to my lack of self-confidence I guess.
This is the key. Learn to love yourself first, and be comfortable with who you are. No one is perfect and everyone has faults. Get in touch with your own spirituality and deal with your emotions in an honest manner. By making this post, you have taken a step in that direction.

I came from a somewhat dysfunctional family, and I too lacked self confidence for a long time, but it did not stop me from finding a wife, and a good job. However, after 29 years of marriage and fathering 2 wonderful boys, my marriage came to an abrupt end. Why? Because I never dealt with the inner turmoil and it resulted in me hating myself. For the first time in my life, I reached out to others and it was through them and reading, that I was able to get in touch with my own spirituality.

Today, I no longer hate myself (or others), and enjoy peace and serenity for the most part. I don't know if you have any religious leanings but here is a prayer that has helped me to be a better person.

The Prayer of Saint Francis

"O Lord, make me an instrument of Thy Peace!
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is discord, harmony;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light, and
Where there is sorrow, joy.
Oh Divine Master, grant that I may not
so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand; to be loved
as to love; for it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life."

I have found a new partner and it is much easier to love her for who she is having come to grips with my own spirituality.

You are young yet, so enjoy your life and don't be afraid to make mistakes, and don't beat yourself up when you do.

<snip>Someone else has found peace through religion. Take that, Commando! :D

~Czardas, Supreme Ruler of the Universe

Simple. I'm a classic loser Nerd.


I dont see anything pathetic here. Look at yourslef and be happy with who you are. You're so young still. You have everything a head of you. Would you rather be a virgin now or have a kid or two when you're still a kid yourself?
Dont be down on yourself. You seem to be intelligent and have a good sense of humor-plus-you can laugh at yourself.
You need confidence. Confidence weighs a lot more than looks or possessions with people that count. Start looking at the things/skills you do have-not at what you dont.

I'm now 19,(18, close enough) still single,(check) never even had a girlfriend,(check) never even kissed.(check) I have one friend I rarely see,(check) an occasional call from Moleland is the only thing to break the norm,(well, not moleland, per se... but equivalent, check) and childhood trauma causes me to hide from the world, reluctant to speak to anyone other than you guys.(check, is still continuing)



Add to that "and is having a sex change" and you have my life, pretty much. Except I dropped out of uni and have no way to repay the fees.

Still, all problems are relative, and it's good to see that even though everything might seem to be in the dirt for you now, you won't let it stay like that forever. 'Course, beating the crap out of everyone who you feel has wronged you won't get you anything except a lengthy *wait, this is Britain* prison sentence. All the best to you :D

Heh, I'm in the same boat. I'm 19, haven't had a girlfriend and also haven't been kissed yet. Except I don't have any calls to look forward to.

But keep your chin up. It's not all about that. Work on building yourself (I'm talking character here) and getting out of feeling low. Focus on rebuilding yourself, getting some confidence back. Working towards being ready when that perdy lady walks along is a far better use of your time and effort than beating yourself up about not having one.

The fact that you have the gumption to post this and be honest about it is a great step in itself.

However, whatever you do - NEVER BETRAY YOUR TRUE SELF. If you stay true to who you are, you'll be more likely to find someone who loves you for who you truly are. And that, sir, is the greatest prize.

Now I need to learn to follow my own advice...

HAHAHA! All the slimy little liberal scum are exposed to be nothing but sociopathic, insecure, cowardly maggots! Oh man, I love it when those though talking libs turn out to be total losers... MUHAHAHAHA!!! :mp5:

So, TIN, what are you doing to make your life better?

~The TIN Man, Determined to make a brighter tommorrow!

Hey, never fear. I like your style, but you needn't worry. When you reach some other living environment (another city, another state, even another country, maybe even university - like me) you'll probably find yourself changed already. It's all about perspective. You're never alone.

I'd suggest you'd try and see parts of the world, preferably very different ones and see what you like. And remember - too high a hopes make very low falls, maybe read the Buddha on this.

I'm now 19, still single, never even had a girlfriend, never even kissed. I have one friend I rarely see, an occasional call from Moleland is the only thing to break the norm, and childhood trauma causes me to hide from the world, reluctant to speak to anyone other than you guys.

It'll come dude, who you are at nineteen is not who you'll be at 25 or at 32. It took me that long (at least) to find someone who wasn't suicidal, homocidal, self-destructive or a life-energy leech (or already married. Remember: check for ringsign!).

Listen mate, I'm in the same boat, only I'm 16 and have no goths or chavs, only a high quantity of neds (non-educated-delinquients). How come I can buy a bug bomb but not a Ned Nuke? Hmm...

Anyway, remember you're not alone, if you need a stranger to talk to TG me and I'll give you my e-mail. (I think someone already said that)

One other thing:
Taxonomically speaking you'd be closer to a dork. A Nerd would right games in C, C++, C# or perhaps Python. A Geek would use either Fortran, Lisp, Cobol!, D or a language they invented and wrote a compiler for.

What about someone who uses DarkBASIC?

And, if someone needed evidence of the sad adolescent males on this forum, here it is.

:D I'm just kidding.

I'll go now...

I'm 17, been with a couple girls in what one might call serious relationships, have hooked up with plenty more, and I'm not a virgin.

I feel left out in this topic.

I wholeheartedely agree! Stop rubbing it in! I feel sad. :(

I wholeheartedely agree! Stop rubbing it in! I feel sad. :(

To an extent, you should feel sad. Untill you step up to the challenges life throws you, you will always get crapped on. Even if you fail to get a date or your ass gets kicked, at least you did something and learned something real so that you will be better prepaired for the next time.

The worst thing about my situation is that I'm sure there's someone out there who's perfect for me. I saw her profile on a dating website (not sure why I was there) and her description was identical to what I would have put down. Problem is, she's 3 years older than me and lives in Australia, at the other side of the world.

EDIT:

Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light, and
Where there is sorrow, joy.
Oh Divine Master, grant that I may not
so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand; to be loved
as to love; for it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.".

I'm sure that's a song aswell...

I'm sure that's a song aswell...If it's not, I'll write it.

You've already got the words. Just add in some music. May I be so bold as to suggest you just modify the tune from Money for Nothing by Dire Straights. :D
