that you've never had a date or a g/f?

Lower your standards?

Im very likely to be much older than you but man did I just learn something. I just found my self in a new social circle where being older than the group I fell into the 'knowledgable gentleman' role - which was cool with me. I met 3 of the ladies away from the group thinking of more (because I'm male) but not expecting it as I think I think like you do. Each meeting was different, fun and enjoyable (lunch with one, drinks with #2 and a day trip with the third) I didn't see any thing I thought was a sign of more interest than platonic friendship. Turns out from conversations around the group I was completely wrong. Turns out I couldn't read it for any money and in all 3 cases much more could have happened - and has now ;) There's a good chance there's more interest than you realise - you may be as shocked as I was!!!

No, no, no, no dude don't give up ffs.
I wasted an entire decade of my life, from age 27 to 37, wallowing in darkness with my frozen, black heart guiding me into nothingness along with my substance abuse destroying my very soul. I was like a ghost and women looked right through me...or so I perceived.
Due to lovely young lady melting my heart totally unexpectedly back in '13 (I asked her out and she turned me down, but I FELT SOMETHING finally) and now 28 days clean of every drug that used to keep me down and dark, I want nothing more than to try and try and try again. My past will never ruin my future anymore, and although it would be a miracle to find a woman who would be remotely attracted to a man who's been alone his entire life (RED FLAG!), I will not give up and give in to that negative voice in my head any longer. Fuck that guy!!

It might just be Vancouver. It's a pretty city for a few months of the year, but the culture is unhealthy.

If you're not the tall, white, athletic, handsome, well-travelled douchey alpha male type living in a nice condo in Yaletown, Coal Harbour or Kits, driving an expensive car and making a six-figure salary at a job that affords you plenty of spare time.. then there's no hope for softy types like you. I'm telling you this from experience, and I, too, have given up on women here a long time ago. And @Bruce is right about the culture. Such a beautiful city that Vancouver is, surrounded by beaches, water, mountains and natural beauty -- and yet its residents are bitter, unfriendly, self-absorbed, superficial, vapid and selfish. That is The Vancouver Way.

Yes, it's true. Everyone should give up because every single female in Vancouver is exactly the same, we are all part of the exact same hive mind.

It's so weird: before I moved to Vancouver I had a mind of my own and varied interests, but now that I'm here, I'm only attracted to white douchey alpha males with expensive cars and condos who live in Yaletown, Kits or Coal Harbour. I always ask to see a paystub/proof of address upon first meeting a fellow so I can ensure he is making at least 6 figures and lives in those three neighbourhoods - this was lesson #1 at the meetings I've attended at The Vancouver Way Club: How to Be Cold, Bitter, Self-Absorbed, Vapid and Other Words in the Thesaurus. One day I hope to marry one of these douches and we can move to Point Grey or Shaughnessy.

Whatever you do, don't take a look at yourself, your choices, or anything like that. Remember that your exact experience is only because of geography, it has nothing to do with you, your values, or your feelings about women in general as an enemy or entity that must be had. And always remember that all women in one geographic location are all the exact same. Maybe you should come to the next meeting of The Vancouver Way Club and learn to tap into the hive.

Way to tell it Vancouver Way, Woman!

You go sister! =)

love you
thank you for that posting

Are these rejections from women you've met locally (i.e., in Vancouver)? Many men have gotten lucky elsewhere. Have you considered looking in another city, or even another continent? Maybe it's time to travel....

Of course, forgetting about women entirely and seeking satisfaction from online porn works, too.

Some men around here have had success with mail order brides. Do be careful with this one, however. Many women overseas take advantage of lonely, vulnerable men so that they can gain Canadian citizenship.

Failing all of the above, consider taking up an absorbing hobby (e.g. photography), volunteering, fighting for a social cause, engaging in civic issues, and politics... the idea being that you're too busy with these things to even think of women. Though if you really want to remove females out of the equation entirely, consider becoming a priest or a monk (good luck with that).

the stuck up women that live here ,

the gold diggers ,

women with their unbelievable standards ,

Ohhhh the delusions of grandeur.

Move out of Metro Vancouver and you will notice the difference.
