See I feel like Im doing all of these things with no luck. I have hobbies and am fairly well adjusted aside from my insecurity regarding dating. I have a cute dog that I absolutely adore, I look in the mirror before I leave the house and while i cant afford nice clothes i at least wear age appropriate clothes, button up shirts, jeans without rips and tears, khakis, leather shoes. I lift weights and run to stay mentally healthy. I also send opening messages on dating apps that actually show that i looked at the girls profile and i only compliment them on their looks after we have hung out in person a few times. But still it seems like ive had no luck. Is it maybe just a numbers game? I am in a pretty rural area for the time being, the closest real town is an hour away and while i have had matches its tough to coordinate and especially convince a girl to drive the hour my way to hang out at the beach.
