I like to think myself as a average-slightly above guy. No means hot, but not bad.

I always get called a good person by…well…everyone. Not “nice” as in nice guy, no, good. I keep myself in shape, I love helping people and going out my way for them (not in a pushover sense, in a way I like to make people happy).

I’m currently a uni student, chasing my life goals whilst working part time. I’ve got a car, hobbies, I’m funny (women constantly say that I’m funny and entertaining, I’m always making them laugh!) and naturally flirty when I try.

I’ve not had a date in going on 5 years. I’m a bit sad about that really as it’s not like I’m not trying, it just never goes that way. I get on way better with women than men.

It’s been a while since I asked someone out, but last time I did the rejection reason was “you’re an amazing guy and I’d love to date someone like you, but you’re just not what I’m looking for. I’d like a man with attitude.”

I’m not really sure what this meant but other women suggested it meant I wasn’t “overly dominant” for that woman specifically. Like I said, I’m no push over, but I’m never gonna force someone to date me or push them. I’ve also been told that it meant she liked men chasing her and I didn’t play that game.

I’m getting kinda lonely as I approach 30. Is there hope?
