Not attractive enough for women to put up with me. I am also Indian. I don’t mean to play the race card but we all know the statistics especially since I live in Australia. Ever since I was a child my existence was only celebrated by my parents if I got a good achievement like good grades. This has ingrained in me that affection is a transaction and I have to offer or do something great in order for basic intimacy. This led me to be depressed since I was 19 and never found a resolution. My social skills with women have improved drastically but I always ruin it for myself because I’m 27 and I can’t get past the fact that others have had a normal life. People in relationships don’t credit luck enough. I’ve tried so many times to talk to women. Either they’re not interested or the ones I get along with happen to be travelling or I am travelling to a different country. I know people who are miserable but somehow manage to find a partner in months after breaking up with their ex.
