True facts. My last girlfriend suffered from depression (among other "issues" >.>) and I stuck with her. Course, I gave that up when I found out she was cheating on me. Advice: don't date needy girls. They only want attention, and it doesn't have to be yours.
If someone cares about you, they'll stay with you. That's how friends are, and that's how girlfriends are. Usually.
Anyway, the big issue seems to be just the act of getting with a girl. And, yeah, it's an issue. Pretty depressing one. My sister's been with 16 guys since she started dating. I haven't even REALLY liked that many girls. Now, yeah, my sister's easy, but it makes it even tougher to deal with, when she can get guys, but I can't get girls. And let's keep in mind, I've talked about how I felt with all the girls I liked. Seven of 9 (Oh if only) all gave the same type of "sorry, I'm just not into you" answer, and the other 2 later admitted they only dated me because they were desperate. But, especially this time, it's all pushed even a step further, because my sister's really good friends with the girl I like and she's always talking about her and Julian. And one more step, I hooked her up with Julian. I've been down over this girl since February. And, honestly, I expected it.
Because, fear of rejection isn't always based on anecdote. Seven out of 9 trials produced the same effect, and the other 2 produced the same effect, between each other. That's data. That basically translates to "Dude, you suck, get over it."
And this is probably why I'm such a staunch Darwinist. Natural Selection, and people like me, we aren't fit to be naturally selected. It's the classic Alpha-Omega hierarchy.
But, really, all I can say is, if you have trouble swallowing that, then put on your >
face, keep the depression inside around the ladies, and focus on some badassery or something. That's what I do when my hormones spike.
