Search Results: strong personalities

This can be a question for people who are in a bad relationship to vent to, and for people who are in a good relationship to share their cute stories.

Luckily for me... I've only known my girlfriend for about 2-3 months, but we just click SO well, share a lot of the same beliefs, and have so much fun together.

Before her, every girl I've tried dating or whatever didn't like how feminine I was for a guy.

But she... she didn't mind at all that I was feminine. She said it's kind of cute. She said she doesn't care if a guy is masculine or feminine as long as he's at least relatively attractive to her, and has a great personality.

I was moved by her words. I've never had a girl accept me for who I am before.

Beyond that... we did all sorts of things together. We talked a lot, we went on walks, we went swimming, we went to the beach, we played video games, we watched movies together, we had sleepovers, etc.

She only came into my life recently, but I can't imagine my life without her now.

I also have been facing depression and suicidal thoughts since I was 13, and she completely understood, and even helped me find my current therapist.

Getting rejected because you are too short, overweight, too skinny, age, unattractive face, annoyingly pitched voice, etc does sting. It makes you feel generally less attractive. Besides your body shape most of those characteristics are genetic. BUT there is a peace of mind knowing you couldn’t of done anything better with your approach.

However if you got rejected because of your personality there can be some strong regrets knowing you had a chance. They say “well don’t change yourself for someone” but it is a bitter pill to swallow when your crush might of responded differently if you approached him/her with better game.

Also changing personality is not easy. Although it is impacted by your environment I do believe people are born with different personality characteristics. Introvertism runs in my family. My mother and her father were notorious introverts. Unfortunately I inherited that and in the USA introverts are usually looked down upon (especially if your male). But I have purposely put myself in social situations to improve. I’m not afraid of public speaking.
