    book

    I would highly recommend a book by Dr. David Burns who is one of the founders of cognitive therapy while at the University of Penn. The title is Intimate Connections. He deals with both the behavioral and cognitive aspects of finding a mate. It is well founded in research, but written in a very layman's style.

      If you want bravado and machismo, here is my secret:

      Grab few bottles of bourbon, a carton of non-filtered smokes(I prefer camels). Grab bunch of books. Books you like, and fulfills you. Stay in a cabin for a week with these items. Do execrises too, work out.

      After this you will feel great. I do this once in a while.

      I'm gonna buy a country home in my home state, so I could do on my vacations and weekends.

      I smoke, and wouldn't encourage anybody to take up the habit, have tried to quit a million times already. What stupid advice

        The best advice for hair loss sufferers is: shave your head and get big.

          I can help you quit. I've quit for 4.5 years now. I don't even think about it anymore.

            Confidence doesn't mean shit. Don't let people fool you into thinking you have a chance with women because of confidence. That's just their way of giving you (false) hope to make you feel good about yourself. What attracts women are three things:

            1) Looks
            2) Status
            3) Money

            2 and 3 are interchangeable. Of course, personality will be a deal breaker as well but the first three are your foot in the door. No amount of confidence is going to change those three things though. if you're bald YOU ARE SCREWED.

            You best hope you land on a woman who doesn't care for baldness or actually finds bald/shaved heads attractive... good luck with that though.
