tl;dr I thought I just needed to get laid, by anyone, to get my confidence back.

Mistake

For obvious reasons I cant tell any of my friends about this and I have to get it off my chest, so: I have been going thru a dry spell since my last LTR and believe it to be from coming off as being desperate. I work out, take care of myself, and dress nice; but a girl is not going to go home with a guy that lacks confidence in himself. I thought a good fix would be to just get laid, by anyone, and by anyone I mean an overweight, unattractive, easy, five-child producing woman. So I took said woman back to my house last night and attempted to fix my confidence issue.

It. Was. Horrible. Not only was she overweight, she didn't take care of herself in other areas. No need to put you thru the details on what I witnessed, lets just say I am still attempting to proper my room. ~ In hindsight I don't know why I was surprised by this, if one does not put forth the effort to look attractive, there should be no surprise when other shortcomings are overturned.

Did it help my confidence? No. I knew I could take that kind home. My plan is to stick with the plan; work out, eat right, keep up a clean appearance, and work my goals.

Lessons Learned

  • Pounding a pig is too easy to build any confidence.
  • If you lower your level of standards don't be surprised if the situation turns out to be worse than initially perceived.
