All too true. I struggled with all of this stuff myself, wanting to get married sine 19 but being forced by circumstance to stay single til 38. The circumstance? The unwillingness of women.
This article should be required reading for every Christian woman in California.

I can tell you this: there seems to be a direct correlation, in women, between religiosity and cruelty towards undesired suitors. AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! A horrible reminder of my miserable single days. So perfectly accurate, too.

can't think of a single example in my enitre life of an extroverted individual who did not do well with the opposite sex. Here I am.

I thought this was a rather appealing post. If I were a WHOLE lot younger (and not married to Mr. Don-o) I'd send you a mildly flirtatiou personal message.
BTW I'm tying this on my husband's computer.

Dear bornacatholic,
You are the second most fortunate man in the world!
I am the first.
I met my wife when we were juniors in high school. Years later, she confided in me that her first thought upon meeting me was, "God, please don't make me marry him."
We went out together on prom night. But not to the prom. And she insisted, "This is not a date."
LOL!
"What a long, strange trip it's been."

Ok, my interest is piqued. Let's here this tale of woe. I've so far yet to see a lonely extrovert.

To: Melas
You haven't met my son, or several other people I've known in the past.
Although I suspect he, like they, won't stay that way.

I'm not seeing it. I was extremely small (I'm under 5'2" at my full adult height), I started losing my hair early, I'm overly dark, I was an underachiever, etc etc, so one would have expected that I would have been incredibly lonely and wanting for female companionship.
It wasn't the case. I had a rich and varied dating life, and I can only attribute it to one thing: I don't have a shy bone in my body.
Conversely, I've known bunches of "shy" guys who were much better looking, made more money, etc who because of their shyness were often dateless and lonely.

I've never once seen that scenerio play out, ever. Quasimodo could have been a player if he had more confidence and attitude.

Aftereffects of bad relationships. These too do pass. But the last one has been a doozy.
This was that for my other extroverted friends who were lonely as well...they don't stay there, as a rule, but they can feel the pain of it perhaps more so than the introverts.
My hubby, on the other hand is an introvert. And it shows.
