I'm 100% skeptic on this subject, actually.
I've given up dating altogether. Sincerely, there's no one out there for me.
After traveling 2200 miles all the way to Colombia to visit her, spending time, money and devotion to her (I even tried to have her come to the United States, but fell through since she was denied her visa in Bogotá), after giving me hopes for a relationship, then, midway through my trip, she tells me that she doesn't feel anything more than "appreciation", and that she's not attracted to me.
After breaking my heart like that, I say "to hell with dating!!!"
I really loved her, but it wasn't enough.
And I'm not about to change my ways. I'm a nice guy by nature and education. I was taught not to treat women like objects, and that they deserve the utmost respect.
So, I've come to the decision to just forget about dating at all. It's just a waste of time.
Why, you may ask???
Because I don't want to be hurt anymore. She bled my heart dry, and there's not much love left for a significant other.
This Spanish phrase summarizes it: "Más vale solo que mal acompañado" (or "better alone than in bad company")
Yikes.
You're almost as scary as Laz.
Good thing you gave up.
