Jack Black has a LOT of money, is famous, very funny and hardly unattractive. Hardly comparable to some ugly, fat guy with a decent paying job but nothing special who's not famous, and is no more funny than the average person.

You're focused on the wrong type of girl. Even if Jack Black was broke... he'd still get pussy. You said it: He's funny. He's got wit and can make people laugh. Women like that. It show's he's got charisma.

Let's be realistic... Nobody can get every single person they want. However, if you've got game and attitude, the women will want you.

Easier said than done, no? Obviously not as expensive as plastic surgery, but can still take some people a lot of time and effort. Of course I agree with you completely for the most part. And honestly, the best girl is the one that doesn't give you a lot of grief and treats you right, and a lot of this model-types are total head-cases.

If you're speaking of looks, I have definitely gone out of my league. I actually don't find it comfortable because of some of the reasons stated already. It makes me a bit insecure. If you are talking maturity, *chuckle* well... I apparently date down. I've been an old woman since I was born in that department, unfortunately younger guys are so darn cute! If only they'd grow up a little.

One of the great things about being a guy is that looks really don't matter that much. Power (and money) are much more important to a lot of women.
 
Not to sound cocky but I'm in the majors and every chick that can't hang is promptly sent to A, AA, or AAA ball until they either improve or are released outright.

My social life is at a standstill right now because I feel like everyone is out of my league. I'm afraid to talk to people I don't really know, let alone ask them out. I'm also paranoid that people will interpret any efforts to get to know them better as me hitting on them.


No one's really gone out of their way to express any interest in me, but I guess that's how life works sometimes.


same here.. especially the bolded part.. in fact, im pretty sure thats how certain people have interpreted my efforts of friendship.

I used to think that the girls I dated were out of my league than one day I realized I only date girls "out of my league" hence I am in the big leagues and was only being modest.

Now I look in the mirror and gaze at myself, this genetic wonder, an absolute Adonis. Blessed with both brains and brawn I go out every night and select only the finest specimens to add to my trophy case.

To some it may seem a fine life, but nay it isn't so. Please before succumbing to your envious rage ask yourself this question: "Shall I place my meat shaft into the voluptuous Brazilian bikini model or the delicious Australian actress tonight?" Every night I wrestle with decisions like these; the therapy isn't helping.

Sometimes looking fabulous can be a curse.

I can relate. :(

I feel this way ALWAYS. I work partime in an University as some kind of systems administrator (for the students mainly). The University teaches Biology and 90% of the students are girls.
Then you have me there with my Jim Kelly hair, my non-fashionable clothes (I think I never left the 80s/90s) and my baby face...
I feel like a worm there with girls that are so fashionable and look so cool...In fact I always feel bad for not wearing like others do...But the worst thing is that I think they consider me younger than them when in reality I am older...
Then one day I met a girl which I thought it was different...and in fact she was but all ended bad.

There is the reality that some people belong to another galaxy, different than yours and at the end despite what everybody claims the best you can do is stay in your Solar System and not bother about the other forms of life that live in this space called society.

Date someone, as in, over a long stretch, no.
Go ON a date with someone who I thought was way out of my league, yes. Was a friend of mine, we tried it out and it didn't work. She was ridiculously hot though. God...screw you GAF for making me remember back when my life wasn't sucking ass. :p:lol

Anyway, yeah, that's my small contribution.

I think everyone has dated "above their level" at one time or another, but the thing to keep in mind is that value is in the eye of the beholder. If they didn't want to be with you, they WOULDN'T be with you...so why freak out about it? Go with it for as long as it lasts.

I mean, what am I? I'm a middleweight. Hey, I'm not the smartest guy in the world, but I'm certainly not the dumbest. I mean, I've read books like "Unbearable Lightness of Being" and "Love in the Time of Cholera." And I think I've understood them. They're about girls, right? Just kidding. But I have to say...my all-time favorite book is Johnny Cash's autobiography "Cash" by Johnny Cash."

I realise what you guys are saying, and I agree with it to an extent, but do you guys honestly think that a guy like this:

could go out with a girl like this:

?

I know that girls don't just go for looks, and that first guy could no doubt get someone far better than most people would imagine if he's funny, has some money, can cheer her up etc., but I can't believe there's no limit there.


My neighbor is like that. He couldn't fit in a Geo Metro to save his life and his wife is HOT. Totally hot. I have no idea how it happened. It is not like he is the smoothest guy on the planet, but he definitely has an ego and attitude. Maybe that is what attracted her. But stuff like that does happen.

I used to feel that ALL THE TIME.

Anyway, Im 24 now and I can tell you one thing about matureing: You start to not give a fuck anymore. I'd say Im like 2000% more sure of myself right now.

America is obsessed with putting things into categories and black and white. A "hawt" woman is not all that wrapped up with if this guy is beneath her, more often than not women look for potential life mates rather than a temp bf. Therefore, they are apt to date people who she is "above".

When I clicked on this thread I thought you were referring to dating someone from a lower caste than yourself, not higher.

Well, we've all gone hoggin' at one time or another.

I've never dated a girl out of my league. But seeing as how my league is the top, things don't get much higher. Also, I've never dated, as in officially, girls who I think my parents would look down as a slut or something. I'll fuck them, but I won't bring them around the parents house or take them out to dinner..

I am neither old nor a fucker. I am a hot young man graduating from university in a week. I assure you I could not pull off dressing as a homelss Neo. My good looks would give me away. Handsome men like myself are not homeless.

Man, I am hot.

Yes, that's Celicar. The owner of two truly HIDEOS dogs and the porker of a hog, aka GF.

I considered my previous girlfriend "out of my league." She was quite good looking. It's a real confidence boost. It's started to make me believe you are in whichever league you think you are. If you are confident enough to believe you are a league above what everyone else thinks you are, then you are in that league.

I'm currently chasing another girl I think is prettier than one I should be going after. It's all confidence and balls. Nike's "Just Do It" mantra is right. You get nowhere if you pussyfoot around, unless you want to be in the friend zone.

My girlfriend isn't a porker. She is as equally hot as I am, although in a feminine way. I asked her if I could post her picture on a forum I frequent, but she said she doesn't want nerds masturbating over her.

Sorry guys.

I hate making "me posts" but this is my first and hopefully only one.

Well, so far hes done nothing to show hes interested in anything further than a friendship. He came with our mutual friend to the mall because he needed a suit for his upcoming film premiere. Most of that night when he talked he would look at Michael and rarely make eye contact with me.

Last night we happen to run into each other at the bar. I was just over the drunk limit but managed not to make an ass out of myself I think. Since he was there solo I gave him plenty of opportunities to go do his own thing but he stuck around and we danced and talked until they kicked us out of the bar. He said to call him or Michael if I were to come back to Indy tonight.

So one day hes almost ignoring me, the other we're friends.

Oh, and there was a porn star at the bar last night they had flown out from California. Short guy, incredibly body but his face was busted. The trolls were out in force with their video cameras, staring with their mouths open at the porn star. When he went to the bathroom, a rush of trolls flooded into the bathroom after him. I fucking hate gay people.
