I may be able to improve my self esteem but all the therapy possible will never make it possible for me to attract a woman.

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post"> Wow! I agree with you there IG. You are completely correct that all the therapy in the world WILL NOT make it possible for you to attract a woman.

Learning that you need to change your perceptions and ways of thinking MIGHT help you in the 'attractive woman' area.

If you are hellbent on sticking to your mindset (which your posts have shown) then therapy will be a frustrating expensive way to spend time.

Hopefully one day you will see that you have pegged all that is 'wrong' or 'bad' in your life on this lack of Playboy bunnies cavorting around you. As if a woman's appearance reflects WHO you are as a person?!

I'm not calling you shallow but that type of attitude is considered shallow by many women. As women who have been objectified as pretty toys (nevermind that we have personalities or brains) we grow tired of this high bar placed on looks. Many times when *I* hear someone going on about how nobody attractive likes them I can figure out why that is the case by listening to the next few sentences out of their mouth. You've been expressing just about every cliched line regarding beauty and its importance.

When you're ready to face your core issues then therapy might be helpful for you. As it stands now with what you write here it does not sound like you are ready to deal with your core issues in therapy. That is perfectly okay but to ***** and moan about the same issue and not try to do anything about it will wear people out. Very few ppl want to hang around someone who is so negative and unwilling to even CONSIDER another viewpoint regarding their life. I know the difference between depressive/manic/anxiety episodes which can erode self esteem to nil and then stick-in-the-mud syndrome. Which one do you think you are?

Again, you are posting here and ppl are responding. If you don't like what I have to say then let me know or just put me on ignore.

My energies here are through. Good luck with whatever choices you make.
