I have not had sex in almost 2 years. Here is my story.
2 years ago I broke up with my girlfriend (its not important why) and I started to pursue my real ambition of becoming a writer. For the first six months or so I didnt care about dating as I was just focused on developing my craft and getting my name out there. I lived in Toronto at the time which is notorious for having a terrible dating scene. I went on a couple dates over the summer and winter but nothing happened. I resigned myself to it and continued working on my writing. For the next year nothing happened. I was broke and could hardly afford to go out, and when you work from home you have no way of meeting people.
Then this summer I had enough of Toronto, so I moved to Montreal. Not only to find better women, but to expand my horizons and enrich myself with better life experiences. I've been here for 3 moths and still have not gotten a bang. I've been on one date which went nowhere, picked up one girl who turned out to have a boyfriend, and have a couple others on OKCupid which I am working on scoring dates with. That is all I can say I've done so far. If I do not have sex soon I am going to explode. Montreal is supposed to have beautiful and aggressive women who will approach YOU if they like you. So where are they?
I need to break this cold streak. But I have a number of things working against me.
-I'm poor (classic starving artist)
-I'm short (5'5")
-I'm not in great shape. Working at a desk all day has made me soft and pudgy.
I do, however, have an interesting lifestyle. My unconventional way of life as a writer, and the fact that I was ballsy enough to move to a new city with no real prospects, creates instant interest. I also have a handsome face, full head of hair, nice eyes, and a magnificent beard.
The way I see it, since I'm not in school I have the following options for meeting women
-Online dating
-Through friends
-Interest groups
-Approaching
I don't need to tell you what the problems are with the first 2 things, and the 3rd thing offers a very slim chance of meeting someone young, attractive, compatible and single. That just leaves me with approaching.
I have to start approaching to break my cold streak. I am going to continue with the online dating, but not rely on it. It is cost effective, but you never get what you think you're getting with these sites. I have gone out several times over the past two weeks with approaching in mind but its hard to build up the guts to even do it once. Much of the time I return home having not done even one approach.
Tonight I will be going to a bar with the intention not of getting numbers, not of making out, not of just having a good time, but of getting laid. Anything else is a failure. I will be doing this again on Saturday as well. I will be rejected and I'm fine with that. But if I continue to stay in I will never meet anyone. What I have been doing thus far has not worked. Its time to try something different. I need to break the cold streak.
