This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

This could be a good strategy to find someone too. People are more attractive when they feel good about themselves.
Typically for a man at least, if you aren't active looking, you're never going to find anyone. Feeling good about yourself isn't going to attract people... being attractive and approaching them is really what you have to do.
Typically yea but sometimes you get lucky and can have a woman ask you out. Usually only happens when they notice other women are interested in you and really don't wanna miss their shot. In my experience, when you're happy, kind and not looking, they'll find you, and fast
Cool my experience has been the oppsite. The more miserable I was the more they were into me, the happier I was, the more they found me unattractive.
I did awesome with women when I was depressed, drinking a lot, and broke as shit. I had multiple women chasing me all the time and confessing their love for me.
Now that I am in much better place, I'm basically invisible except to these really high-strung business women I want nothing to do with because their entire life is complaining about how broke they are even though they are wealthy, who basically cry themselves into a bottle of wine every night because they can't find a billionaire to date them and think anyone making less than 300K a year is living in poverty.
Somewhat true but if you're on the bigger side you can get away without being toned. Surprisingly its usually the small skinny guys that struggle even if they have a 6 pack. Big flabby arms are still more attractive that 5% body fat twig arms. The biggest thing getting fit does it make regular clothing look better. Being fit can significantly elevate something as simple as a t-shirt if it fits nicely.
I was by far the most fit guy at the bbq i went to last weekend and i was also one of the only single ones and tend to be single more than the others. The host a good friend of mine actually looked great in just a button up and his cowboy boots cause he actually put some thought into his outfit.
