i like traveling and going to movies. Does my hobby have to be exciting?
You troll the web for dates on Craigslist, you have your TV for sports events and occasionally put a comment out on the CD sports forum.
You like traveling? In your 34 years where have you traveled outside of Pittsburgh and how often?
Going to the movies? When did you actually last go to the movies outside your apartment? Save us the BS, Grasshopper and keep it for the Craigslist contacts.

What this female co-worker is really saying is that you don't appeal to women. Your choice of subject manner for discussion is just one example of what women might find undesirable about you. Accordingly, it is natural for her to assume you don't have one.

Reason: spelling mistake
Sports
Women
TV Shows
Sporting Activities
Current Events
They must be the same men that don't date the women you don't date.

At least she didn't tell you that the telephone is your nemesis.

Travelling? to where? when is the weather in Philly good enough for you to even travel to your front door?

I'm still not able to rep you, STT - you're always on the money!
Grasscupcakehopper, your co-worker knows you better than you know yourself. You have no life; you make up crap to avoid meeting real live women; if you find yourself inexplicably meeting one, you sabotage it. Your life is stuck focusing on your sports and your interests. You don't even want to know what a woman might like to discuss yet you expect all the women in the world to want to discuss the 2 measly topics you have any interest in or knowledge of. You're boring. Your co-worker calls you on it and you scoff.
The men I know discuss politics; areas of the world and country they have visited, want to return to, just came back from; where to retire; the most recent play they saw; concert they attended; museum they visited; and they love hearing about my shopping excursions! yeah, go figure. Yanno, I never heard one discuss sports with me unless you count sailing. I can and do discuss woodworking and home repair with experts in the field of historic restoration (and hold my own as I love working with wood - both men and tree-kind); I can discuss basic car repair - yep, I've repaired my own, rebuilt starter motors, etc. - and I NEVER want for lack of friends or social chat with anyone. I learned at an early age that men like women who talk about more than women's topics. And I like a man who will discuss yarns with me or go to the fabric store and discuss what material to buy for the new curtains I am making. Yeah, some real men do that.
As someone else asked you, what are you doing to make yourself interesting? Have you read Eats Shoots and Leaves? It's one of my favorites.

I hope she doesn't mean that because would be plain wrong.
I found it so funny that women at my job think because I never talk about women that I don't have one. I have a mother but I don't talk about her either-lol
Then my female coworker actually told me that SPORTS is my main girlfriend and the INTERNET is my girlfriend on the side-lol
That actually made me laugh a little but she can't assume I don't have women in my place.
That didn't give you a hint that even your coworkers are in line with the majority of people who respond to your innumerable posts on CD? Lost&Found's comment was astute.
Those of us who know you through your threads are well aware of the two times in the last 18 months that women have been in your place and those two times are hardly anything to brag about with any sort of a ho ho ho and a smirk.
So, Grasshopper, what happened with your intention of seeking a professional counselor? No doubt that idea hit the dust and faded into oblivion as fast as all your other innovative plans.
You revel in creating threads which ramble on endlessly with so many responses from so many who both "know" you and those who, not having read your history, take the bite and empathize with you.
I really did think you were salvageable for a long time but now I find myself repeating a refrain where you're concerned.
As of now, Grasshopper, you are done where I'm concerned. Yes, I've said it before and came back but now we're really done.
Old age takes it's toll and I'm having some current problems which are bothering me. It's been fun joshing with you for so long and trying to put you on a reasonably right path, but I'm just not into it any more.
Save the one-line platitude response. Just get some professional help. Cheers!

Your attraction for me is stronger than your lies Your are too attracted to me to fade away.

You not only don't know women your own age, you really don't know us older ones.
