I have learned that I am better off single. And in many cases, better off alone. I feel like that I am so unique and odd, that there will not be a woman that I am to be compatible with. I am not a good looking guy (though I don’t believe that I am ugly). Despite having a good rating on Hot Or Not<\/a>…. The picture I used doesn’t show my face completely… it is partially hidden.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

My Hot Or Not badge… Currently an 8.1… was as high as 8.5 and as low as 7.4… so, 8.1 is a good average. The previous try, my score was around 4.5 or 4.7. My looks haven’t changed, but I used a better picture.<\/p>\n

But looks aren’t everything. Right?<\/p>\n

Just for comparison…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Christian Bale or me?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Brad Pitt or Me?<\/p>\n

So, yeah, looks DO matter… but how much?<\/p>\n

Anyway, that’s kind of off the point of this post. Finding somebody that I can get along with and am compatible with and somebody that finds me attractive is a challenge. For right now, I don’t even feel like looking. I think that being single is the best for all parties involved.<\/p>\n

Just look at my MySpace<\/a> profile and see just how odd I am… but that’s me. The real me. I am not a persona. I am a real person. I am not a robot. I am human. Believe it or not.<\/p>\n

I spend time on Digg<\/a> and on Pownce<\/a>. I spend time on MySpace. I watch video podcasts and listen to audio podcasts. I am a heavy metal-geek… I work in Healthcare Technology. I program (from time to time) in Visual Basic .NET. Yeah, that’s exactly what attracts the girls. A heavy-metal geek who programs. I enjoy technology in my everyday life. It’s not something that I look at from afar. It’s something that I enjoy. Video games, high def television\/movies, music, computers\/internet. How could a girl go wrong with me?<\/p>\n

Thus, all of this added up = just stay single and alone and I’ll be fine.<\/p>\n

Some of you may try to convince me otherwise, but until it happens that some girl actually falls for me and it stick, I won’t believe it.\u00a0 It’s like the X-Files… “I want to believe.”<\/p>\n
