I always thought the whole "nice guys finish last" had decidedly sexual connotations.

Am I wrong in this?

I thought the same until I googled the phrase. Apparently, it isn't a sexual thing.

I thought being lonely and miserable was the natural order of things?

Relationships? Those are unnatural.

Converstation between me and a "nice guy".

NG: Why is *female name* such a bitch?
Me: How do you mean?
NG: She flirts with me and leads me on. She makes me think she likes me, then, when "male name" crooks his finger, she goes running to him and laughs at me.
Me: You mean the way you treat "other female name"? You flirt with her and make her think you like her then, when "first female name" crooks her finger, you go running to her and pretend that "other female name" doesn't exist? Like that?
NG: Huh? *pretends he sees someone he desperately needs to talk to and slinks off.*

Wow, this thread went fast. All I'm saying is this- women usually have standards which I don't live up to, therefore I'm a friend and not relationship material. The trick is accepting this situation and the solitude that comes along with it.
Facts are arbitrary. Pleasure is the only truth.
I worship tea.
Here's why I prefer strength over brains- beating a computer at chess is hard, but beating a computer at kickboxing is something anyone can do.
Violence isn't the answer. It's a question and the answer is yes.

Someday, I shall meet Lian and learn the ways of Chinese martial arts, or die trying. More likely the latter, admittedly.

A better solution is finding women who like you back. You can't possibly expect women to date somebody who they aren't attracted to?

Plenty of women with none-to very few standards, if you really are that crummy.

Oh, women don't like me back. I speak strangely and I'm somewhat disfigured. I have a blind left eye that's always half-shut and sometimes leaks.

I have yet to meet any. Being in college is hard because most of the people are attractive and not missing any body parts :p

Have you ever worn an eyepatch? Lol, least comfortable thing ever, especially with the way my eye swells.

Yes...yes indeed. I don't go to college but yes indeed. Anyway, you're bound to run into one eventually.

Oh, well maybe my eye sucks even more than I thought! It is still light-sensitive, and on sunny days I feel like I got punched in it.

No they don't, or else I'd still wear them. They're too "I'm trying to look cool."
