How about love?

Love scares me. Love is too stressful and I have given up on it. Just the other day, I was talking to my friend, I said, "I will find love late in life, or never find it."

I have been thinking lately and the more I look at it the more I am convinced that I do not have the right temperament to nurture a relationship.

I am always exhausted after the second week and I start looking for a means of escape. I could be the most romantic person on earth, going out with a fine woman and all but after the first week, when the first traces of her femininity begins to feature in my daily thoughts, and even irritate me, I feel like a cat caught inside a cage snare placed on the rooftop. I feel like I am a snared animal that can see the snarer working the snare to catch it, and put it inside a bag. And off course, at that point, it has to run. Run it does!!

After the first week, I need to rid myself of the females influence on my psyche -- I do this by tuning down my affection totally. My time, my thoughts anything but her. To be honest, I feel better. I tell myself every time I start a new one that I will persevere this time -- all are lies, I never do.

The ways of woman are a great source of wonder and stress to me. I am taciturn by nature, do not sweat the small stuff, and like to approach life from a logical and rational standpoint -- so far, the women I have gotten into relationships with, no matter how promising they seemed in the beginning, soon start to show a strong affinity for the things I hate.

No need sweating the small stuff. I will not pursue love. If love finds me, I will not make huge changes to the way I live my life. I think it's better to have peace of mind and self-love, than have love which produces nothing but stress and heartaches for you all the time.

Sex?

I quiet like sex. I feel sex starved sometimes but I have a good solution to that: ashewo! Yeah, I pay for sex.

About twice, or thrice monthly, I head over to the club and pick up a runs girl. Take her home and pay her well to make all my fantasies come true. Call girls give the most amazing sex ever. All positions, all techniques -- nothing is ever off the table. Who needs love when you can get this.

PS.

I am a deeply introverted mid-twenties man with a history of bad relationships. Do not advise or judge. I am sharing this story because... well, no reason actually. Just don't judge
we are both alike in evert sense bro. it feels good u have the knack for revealing this. I wish I could have a serious relationship but have failed on countless times owing to my timidity as an introvert. this is why I go to club for sex only

Windflower:

That's the problem,you don't have to worry about anything, everything has to do with our mindset.Next time do not procrastinate,always challenge yourself to dare something you haven't done before.

Now, am trying not to be too withdrawn from people,today I was really playful at work that people were surprised. I guess we just have to learn to adjust our introverted nature so people don't see us as alien. smiley
very very correct miss wind flower, the best word for the situation is :"modify and adjust"

Hi all! I'm writing a book titled: © The Life and Diary of an Introvert

Actually I was thinking of making it *journal* instead of the word *diary*

What do you all say about this?

Also, do you think it can make much sales? Because [some] people have nothing to do with introverts or being an introvert.

What do you say?


In addition, I'm also thinking of writing it in american style or the native nigerian style.
I tend to write in american style because I want to sell it as an ebook on Amazon. Most americans who by from Amazon never prefer reading books by africans talk less of nigerians.

What do you say about this too?

I prefer "The Life and Diary of an Introvert". Adopt the American style because Nigerians rarely buy books from Amazon.

Goodluck.

I was wondering if someone can tell me of a website that is dedicated to ending "gender equality" and putting women in their place. I cannot find one on google.

.

I personally feel a title such as "The Journal of an Introvert" or "The Diary of an Introvert" without the "life" should do the trick. It feels like the diary of someone speaks volume about their life anyway. Just an opinion and not a direct response to your question.

"American Style." You will reach a wider audience that way, including the local one the alternative targets.

look toward to getting the book ,let it be in a journal format.Nigerians read and buy books too,would have preferred "our own style " but I don't know about your kind of audience ,even if it is pepped in the American style ,once it is from Africa,the average Whitee won't blink, but the tides are favoring us now, our African style of writing coupled with the settings are taking us out gradually, and believe me ,it is selling hot .

please guys I need your advice, any suggestions on how to overcome shyness towards approaching ladies. Am 23 done with school and currently working but I have never had a girlfriend.As much as I tell myself that having one is not my priority now. It's just doesn't feel right that i have never been able to ask any lady out


I'm 25 and in similar shoes as you.
I hardly go out too.

I have never had a gf before even in university days.

I have seen girls like me and shown it but Im always shy to ask them out or get closer

I have missed out on up to 6 girls in this similar issues from secondary school to university.

1 even tried in high school then ... From Jss2-ss3 , but was shy to start a convo with her and get closer
