I keep feeling that I am unattractive and alone. I mean I can't seem to find the problem I mean I never seem to have a problem with guys chatting with me or flirting but it we talk for a while then arrange a date and when it comes to a date or even just meeting up they seem to act really awkward and it's pretty much dead from there. Have I just been unlucky so far or is it me ? It's not like I give off a desperate vibe as I don't assume anything beforehand, I don't act overly eager, im not frigid or overly eager either so I can't think why they seem to be scared off. It just knocks my self esteem as I can seem to get plenty of one dates but nothing more.
