I've since childhood been in an environment that's protective. Seldom was I allowed to travel on a path uncharted. As a result I'm afraid of challenges. I'm a timid, unassertive man. As expected women find me repulsive. I was in the 'nice guy' territory but no more.

I'm in my early 20s. I sometimes think I'm irredeemable. I come across as a weak, unattractive man. I'd like a woman's perspective on my self improvement journey.
