What is your overall philosophy for why you would date, or why you did date, or why you are dating, all condensed into these two exclusive options :smug:
 
I know/love/understand myself already, so I will look for "The One".
 
I know myself, and there's no such thing as 'the one', so according to the options there's no reason for me to date anyone.
What happened to fun?
 
I didn't try to find the one it just happened so I chose finding your self.
 
Erm well its something to do, interesting etc. I wouldnt go into a relationship looking for 'the one' but if it happened that'd be cool.

So women are tools, eh? That's essentialy what you just said, unless you mistyped your statement.
 
I think initially I was looking for someone for me because I hadn't had any strong feelings for a girl in a while and I thought I was becoming emotionally numb and that was bad. i think to now that I have my moonlight I can reconcile with myself that ya im weird, but other people are to and im not the only one.

In the sense that any relationship is a tool, yes. But you'd have to be pretty narcissistic to even liken a relationship to a tool...
 
It's trying to find the one who will be the most benefit to your self!!
 
Trying to find the one.

The problem is, I don't know where to start. I don't know anyplace where I would find a greater concentration of single women.

Most women are going to be single or in non-serious relationships, the chances of finding single women is not the problem in the least.

Well, I just don't know where to look.

I met mine at the grocery store. Being an import she asked me where to look for certain things. I gave her a tour of the store.

They are every where.

I don't know. I think my scanner is broke or just assume that every women are taken or already married.

Yup its you and your assumptions. Remember what they say about those. And anyways if you really want to get to know girls, just try to get to know girls. You'll find a lot doesnt have that special someone, and even if a few do, well, there's nothing wrong with getting to know a person for that sake alone.
 
Unfortunately, I just feel like my biological clock is ticking away (Many of my peers are in relationships or are married) and don't have time to just get to know girls. I just want a Girlfriend and a potential wife.
 
See, while the whole affair is a selfish thing, by going about it completely selfish will get you nowhere. 'Ohh you're probably taken I have no time of day for you' attititude will ensure all the untaken girls have no time of day for you either. There's no biological clock ticking anywhere for you, you're a guy and will always be able to do your part of the offspring making if offspring is what you're worrying about, but if its just companionship, you're what, 24, still young, the thing is just getting to know people and being friends with people, all people, guys and girls regardless of relationship status, and by doing so you'll eventually find someone who wants to be more than just friends with you.
