Search Results: some people are better off alone

Okay I have to get this out, and this is a place I found.

I'm 18, living in the UK, a heterosexual guy who has never dated or been close to doing so.

To give you an idea, I am not attractive physically, by my own analysis. I have little hair and an oversized forehead, creating that classic "probable murderer" look, and no amount of gym time has been able to earn me an acceptable body.

It's not much better personality wise. My interpersonal skills have always been so impaired that, for most of my life, I was believed to be autistic. I am afraid to approach women, and unable to see in the moment any signs indicating that they may be interested. I believe that I am completely repellent as a person, and I'm pretty sure other people do too.

I do not consider myself to have any real friends, much less ones who can introduce me to others. My interests are obscure to the point that I can't meet anyone through them either.

Recent developments have made it worse. After being blown off repeatedly and considering the problem may be me as a person, I began to read up on basic stuff about how to properly respect women. I managed to realise that I wasn't entitled to anyone, but then I thought: if I'm not entitled to anyone, what chance do I have? After all, I'm utterly abhorrent due to some things I'll never be able to change (see above) so without the illusion that I was destined for someone, my confidence in finding someone fell to rock bottom.

I feel I may have developed a sort of depression as a result of, or to compound, this, but I am afraid to go and get help. I'm in so deep that I have begun to resent the happiness of existing couples, a feeling which has been amplified around this time of year. (Another sign that I am just a bad person.)

I'm hoping I'll get out of this either some words of support or advice; or a confirmation that I will be alone all my life.

PLEASE READ:

First off I just want it stated I'm not some guy looking for hookups, I do only want something legit, that said I was raised in a very military family where some aspects of life are absolute, romance being one of them. I was taught that humans are physical creatures and that we need strong physical attraction to a partner initially to truly value the person, which I strongly believe, I simply would not date a girl I didn't find very physically attractive even if it meant I'm alone my whole life-better that than a plain or average girl to me at least. So some may call me shallow for valuing looks so much but that's human and I'm unashamed, it's not like I'm trying to rack up a sex count.

Anyway at 18 my body went through a mild shock, to help itself recover it cut resources to non essential functions-main one being hair, so while women recover from this men's hair does not at times since testosterone attacks follicles in men, I have to shave my head bald now or it looks thin and sickly, yeah it sucked by I grew used to it and by some miracle pull it off okay, so I wasn't too worried, until I heard some people say no hair was equivalent to being overweight etc or extremely unattractive etc. yes I know some girls won't date a guy with no hair but this made it sound like any attractive girl would say no.

So please be honest and try to judge using you're own social circles, girls if you yourself dislike bald but know a number a good looking girls who don't mind vote that a guy could, this isn't about individual tastes it meant more for what your intuition on the majority mindset towards bald is.

Just to give a taste by what's good looking to me; a girl has to be very slender, be lighter complexioned and have a very pretty face, there's no leeway on those aspects, I really don't like the numbers scale but please just to help give context in text, I'd say most girls I like are about 7-8 range in looks, again don't like numbers but to give an idea.
