It's not like some girl's gonna magically show up in their basement and fall in love with them for their uber 1337 gaming skillz.

Heh, even though I'm quite a loner on that aspect (although I never think too much about it though, life is way more than just romance and I have awesome friends and family) and do feel like some romance could do me some good...

...My very first and most important thought would still be "Who the hell are you and what are you doing in my room? Get out now".

I voted for Romance/Love because that's the thing that makes me forget all the other missing shit. Too bad I only sit at home playing video games and watch movies.

Not sure if this actually applies to you (or any of the other guys in this forum for that matter) but it always annoys me when I hear "beta males" whine about being single while doing nothing about it. It's not like some girl's gonna magically show up in their basement and fall in love with them for their uber 1337 gaming skillz. Meeting girls involves actually going out and doing something with life. Half these guys have no friends and nothing really going for them, so maybe they should take care of that first otherwise any girl they meet is going to find them boring.
I don't mean to be sexist or anything... I know lots of girls also do stupid shit like this, it's just that I see it more from guys (which is likely because most of my friends are guys).

I agree with that, maybe i sounded too bad while posting this. It was not my intention to draw myseld as a 'beta'. I haven't explained my point clear enough. What my problem is: I don't care enough to get a serious relationship. I basically want one in that moment, but i know for my self that if i had one in this very moment i would be pissed too, that is because i don't want to be attached this way to someone. My last relationship ended because i stopped caring.
What i want is the good feeling of it, and not the problems and losses that go with a relationship. But that is kind of fiction and not quite possible. I'm clear of that and my own opionion about that topic, so i wouldn't consider myself as whiny.
I hope, misses 'alpha', you do understand and can sleep well again.

and yeah, my english sucks lately

My reaction would involve duck-tape, a bucket of water, a baseball bat, and 63 little pins.
Also money is missing from my life, and an A in my Chemistry calss

... duck-tape...

good luck trying to by duck-tape somewhere

But I am guessing, you like many people who seem to think it's called duck-tape, mean duct-tape

Ducktape: nearly as good as seal-otape

What, you mean "Ducktape: nearly as good as sticky tape" isn't as funny?

And - just to out-pedant our resident pedant - Duck Tape is a pretty famous brand of duct tape, Marcel. AND historically it was referred to as duck tape anyway!

Nah, in the UK there's a brand of tape called sellotape, so well known in fact that the brand name is synonymous with that type of tape (I.e. generic tape is called sellotape). Anyway, sealotape was meant to be an animal pun of ducktape.

Yes, Joe, that was kind of my point...being from the UK and all...was trying to poke fun at our cousins on the other side of the Atlantic! Lost in translation methinks.

Hah, indeed. Actually I made that comment from my phone so I didn't register I was responding to a UK based person I might have the implication otherwise.

nope also funny to a Dutchman. Here we also have that brand and use the name to refer to all brands of adhesive tape. Here we never call it Scotch tape.

btw the name apparently is used that same in quite a few other countries as well if Wikipedia is right http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sellotape

Yeah I also noticed that after researching it. Seems like the US has their own thing to themselves. I would certainly never think of calling if scotch tape.

btw Sellotape is way stickier than Scotch tape. So the UK adhesive tape is of much better quality than the US one.
You can acutally buy the brand Scotch tape here as well. But give me Sellotape and its cousins any day of the week.

I usually just use the generic cheap stuff from the supermarket, then moan and swear that my total lack of fingernails can never find where the tape begins

the age old problem even when I still had nails, ages ago that was, I could never find where the tape begins.

In Chile we call pretty much any kind of tape "scotch".
