Hopeless romantic

It's been 2 months since my last relationship. I don't know what my flaw is that keeps girls from wanting to date me.. http://tinypic.com/r/264qmw8/8
What do you think? I'm the nicest guy ever I love to go on dates ( I always pay) I can be clingy sometimes. I persistant I express my self a-lot I'm not afraid to get sensitive. Maybe those things are why but I feel it's because I'm fat. I weigh 225 for christ sake! I lost like 25 pounds and i'm still losing weight. I just don't know.

Respect doesn't mean you have to say only nice things and treat them like goddesses, and in fact means the opposite. Just because somebody is female doesn't mean they need to be treated gently like some delicate flower, be critical of them but equally supportive. Respect them enough to tell them your true opinion, with a little honeying here and there depending*

*Not going to lie though, women have some pretty volatile emotional states and you can never tell what's safe to say or not to say.

That doesn't apply to me

[quote=TrueAtheist]IMO this is how you get a girl, but not how you keep 'em. It's also important to distinguish what "treating them like crap" means, no girl wants to be treated like crap in the literal sense. If you're insulting her constantly and degrading her she's not going to take that, and if she does I wouldn't want to be with a girl who was so spineless. What "treating them like crap" really means when people say that is just not giving them everything they want and not kissing the ground they walk on.[/quote]

You know reverse psychology.
Girls love guys that treat them like crap, or what they say is confidence.
Confidence means you have options, you can get any girl you want.
When you treat them like crap, they're thinking "this guy is a total jerk, he must be able to get any girl he wants so he doesn't have to treat me nice, i can't let other girls have him he's mine now"
Worst mistake is placing a girl on the pedestal, she'll think you're trash and not bf or husband material because girls want the alpha male, the one that can protect and support her, and if you treat her like she is a queen and you're a slave then that isn't happening. she'll have no respect for you.
Tldr: go to gym, get jacked, treat girls like crap like you don't need them, they'll be all over you

[quote=Reticent]You again. o-o" Just do what you did to get your first girlfriend or something.
Anyways, you need to realize different girls want/value different things in guys. You stated some pretty stereotypical things that you "think" girls like. You're generalizing women. It's as if you just want any girl to be yours. It would be more meaningful if you just liked one girl and just tried to get that one girl.
However, it sounds like you're just trying to pick up chicks. In this case, I would suggest that the biggest flaw is that you probably have no flirt game. Guys who just come up to me and make small talk and try to hit on me always make me feel uncomfortable because they have really terrible flirt game. They just make boring small talk and then ask to eat lunch/hangout. It's even creepier when they're really persistent. Didn't even make me laugh once or anything.

Up your flirt game. Better yourself for YOURSELF and not because you "think" girls prefer certain attributes. And play the waiting game.[/quote]

Lol? Where do you know me from? Also I was younger then and in my prime. I weighed alot less and honestly had a better personaility. Several things happened in my life that have ruined that personaility. I have more of a passive agressive niceness.

PS. TS is 17.

1. two months of being single isn't that long if your last relationship was meaningful but i guess no one's the same when it comes to moving on. regardless you don't have be dating someone all the time
2. are you actually nice or creepy nice or passive aggressive nice? they're all different
3. enjoying dates and paying for everything is good, keep doing that but be smart and don't let someone take advantage of it
4. you can open up and be emotional but no one likes being around someone that's only feelings and deep conversations. cheer up sometimes
5. losing 25 lbs takes a lot of dedication and self control so feel proud and keep at it

1. Be yourself, but be aware of the certain negative traits that you have.
2. Work out and eat healthy.
3. Girls don't like guys who are nice all the time. You sometimes have to be that "bad boy" girls dream of being with.
4. Do not care what others think about you. Pursue your passion and accomplish your life goals.
5. Save money, and only spend on necessary things.
6. Dress nice. Make sure you have a classy wardrobe suited for your age. Don't try to show off "swag" when you're in your twenties. (Personally, I think that stuff should stop after you graduate high school)
7. Have a job. Girls love men who have responsibilities and can take care of themselves.
8. Be considerate and respectful of others. You won't last long in society being a d-bag.

Did you notice something? These are all tips to better [b]yourself[/b], not just to impress/attract girls.
Girls will automatically be attracted to you like the north and south ends of a magnet if you do these things.

Losing weight is easy, but it's not gonna happen in just a few weeks like what the infomercials tell you. 25 pounds is great progress, assuming you've lost that weight within four months or so. You can lose weight little by little. Diet is the most important part of weight loss. Then it's exercise. Make sure to do cardio everyday for at least 30 minutes (cardio is the fastest way (in exercise form) to lose weight I believe). But even if you did let's say, only 5 minutes of exercise on one day, you'll still be okay if you're on a good diet. I suggest you to take your time when losing weight and don't hurry too much. I'm sure that you'll be skinny at least one year from now if you keep up your efforts.

You don't have a stop being clingy, unless if you're okay with not being clingy or you actually want to stop being clingy. You don't always have to change your personality to open to more opportunities. Embrace what you believe in. Do what makes you happy. That way, you'll be able to find girls your type instead of attracting girls that are into dushes. What goes around comes around. If you change yourself in certain ways that may be against your beliefs, it might not do justice to the expectations you truly value.

Few ways to solve ur problem
1)plastic surgery+ heavy diet
2)find an ugly just as desperate grill
3)play league. Become lcs status. Since u can look like a reginald or a doublelift and still find a gf
4)stop being desperate, qqing all day, blaming everything about urself. Just wait and find the right person who will accept u and ur clingyness

@Jayishere: i mean....you're leaving out your personality and only telling us that you're nice. if that IS your personality then you sound pretty dang boring.
otherwise like in a friend of mine's case, he is fat and nice but oh my god his sense of humor. so cringe. awkward as hell and constantly mentions south park and makes fun of gingers. so like if you're leaving out telling us that you're extremely awkward and socially inept then that could easily whats turning girls off
also 2 months is not that long at all and jumping from committed relationship to committed relationship is a red flag for everyone

maybe you're not as nice as you think you are, maybe you go after the wrong girls. my bf weighs around the same as you at 5'11 and i think he's hot but i'll be honest i'm pretty fat myself, have you tried dating fat women? the girl in your picture is fairly average/skinny. but obv fat women don't all like fat men and skinny women don't always hate fat men. if you really are a nice dude then it's probably just the people around u, but you're not giving us enough to go on other than a self description of yourself that leaves out negative traits
