If you were...

straight, and the opposite sex...
gay, and stayed the same sex...
or bi, and it wouldn't matter...

Would you ask yourself out?

No, probably not.

I don't really date, but if I did, I'd need a person to be different than me in some areas, while being similar in others. Dating a copy of me would mean too many similarities and it would probably drive me nuts. Plus, it would be unbalanced.

Which brings me to the next part of my question...

If you say, "Yes, absolutely!" or indication thereof, does that mean you have an ego? (not picking on you, Xiiro) If you're leaning toward "no," would that indicate possible self-esteem issues? It's both a simple and complex set of questions, isn't it?

Oh Gosh, NO!

Too complicated, thinking much too much, so much in fact that nothing ever happens. Also too much of a loner, worrying too much about everything (usually fantasy-sorrows), and swinging between really weird and downright boring. Unable to really commit and decide and most of the time not even knowing what I feel, and if I will feel like this for longer than today or tomorrow. This switching-on-and-off of feelings and insecurity in this regard can get really annoying. And certainly no eyecandy either.


For a friendship definitely; loyal, trustworthy, communicative, a little bit crazy surprising ideas (esp. mentally), very tolerant and accepting and sensitive to other`s feelings.

But dating me?
No way!

I don't think my decision has to do with ego as much as being a complex person. I have only dated one person who really GOT me. I love that feeling of both being understood and the freedom to love someone completely.

The sex would be awesome and the company would be good. I do everything in my power to make sure the person I love is cared for and respected. Being with someone who returned the sentiment, instead of becoming infatuated with that part of my personality and expecting to be taken care of, would be nice.

Of course there would be struggles whenever the personality traits I dislike arise. But I think communication and getting through those struggles would be functional.

Right, as I said, I wasn't picking on you.

How do you know you're repulsive to women? Have they told you that or sent you obvious signals of one kind or another? Or, what "below-the-radar" behavior from them have you sensed that would cause you to think so? I don't mean to put you on the spot and/or make you uncomfortable, but your "repulsive" remark has me curious now. I know you've said the reason is unknown to you, but something has to have sent you that message to make you feel that way.

If I were the opposite sex would I ask myself out, I don't know I imagine a lot of "sexy time" between Me as a girl and guy but to date myself I am not sure I am rather mysterious, complicated and secretive but then again some guys like that.

Hey btw, when did you become a moderator? Did they anoint you, or is it due to your number of posts? You started one month before I did, but have 10 times the number of posts!

And there he is! Yeah, I noticed...some people are on here all the time, lol. Maybe when I reach that level.

By the way, what was the "No" in reference to?

So, is "moderator" status based strictly on the number of posts under one's belt, or what other criteria does one have to meet?
