I think of myself as a pretty bland and boring individual. I hate people, I hate going out, I don't like many of the things people my age are supposed to like.
How's my love life you ask, knowing full well that I'm going to say something counter intuitive based on my previous comment.
I dated tons, before I got engaged. Now I'm marrying a wonderful woman. The last woman I went out with before her made it known to me that she thought I was interesting and sexy as hell because I beat her in a game of Love Letters using the mathematics of probability which I learned while playing poker.
My last serious relationship before that was with a woman who thought the absolute world of me, despite the fact that I was a miserable asshat who didn't have a single positive thing going for him at the time.
All the women before that thought I was sexy, smart, funny, and countless other descriptors because they were all clearly on all of the drugs. I'm overweight, dropped out of highschool, was working minimum wage jobs, drove a shitty car, and was about as social as a poor, fat, highschool dropout who hates people.
Everyone is looking for something different.
When I was in Vegas I met a woman, I invited her to sit with me at dinner because I was sitting alone and she'd have to wait another 10 minutes for a table, she agreed and she went on to tell me all about herself. When she was done she made a comment that implied I'd been nodding along politely the whole time. I proceeded to recount her life's story for her and she sat there with her jaw in her lap at the thought of me actually listening and committing it all to memory. Had I not had a plane to catch in 2 hours I'd have been in her room having dessert immediately after dinner. I know because she told me so.
I didn't even have to be interesting, I just had to provide what she wanted, someone who would listen.
Everyone wants something different.
