Search Results: why are guys jerks

I’m in my mid twenties and truly have the worst luck when it comes to dating. I’ve been on and off the apps, I have no success 99% of the time. Why I use apps? Because I have no friends. I’m told I’m attractive & there have been times when I was thinner and heavier in my life. I thought that with weight loss, I’d get more guys giving me attention but that isn’t the case. I get attention on the apps but the attractive guys seem to only want sex/are jerks & ugly guys are all over me. Attractive people I see always get attention & get dates from people in their league (people equally as attractive as them). I know I’m not a 10 but hoped that I would get attention from good looking guys. I will say, the guys that I find good looking & seem decent, are usually my height or only an inch taller. I’m not that tall (above average height) & refuse to date someone that short. Am I the issue?

Around two weeks ago, my mother and I got in a heated argument. A few times, I’ve told her that I think I’m cursed with interpersonal relationships. I have no friends, the friendships I’ve had either dwindled or I stop talking to them because I felt like I was putting in more work. Regarding romantic relationships, I’m in my twenties and only been on dates , nothing serious. It goes like this: the guys I find attractive only want hook-ups or are jerks & the ones that like me I don’t find attractive. I’m told I’m pretty, I think I’m cute but even when I was skinnier I didn’t get much attention. She thinks that it’s because I’m still guarded, but that doesn’t mean anything. If someone is attractive, they will get attention regardless of personality. The dating apps are my only outlet to meet people, she thinks they work while me & everyone else think they’re trash. A lot of the guys stop messaging or seem to never log on again. Because I told her that I want to date a guy I find attractive/taller than me, I’ve rejected a few guys that were decent looking but my height or an inch taller. She thinks I’m shallow & that I can end up alone, which is one of the reasons why I’m having these issues. I left her at the restaurant & had her take an Uber (true story). She’s saying that I’m having a hard time with the apps & it’s mostly my fault, clearly not the case. All these guys are flakes or just creepy.
