Right. What about how you met her, how you decided to go steady with her, etc?

It seems I'm only interested in miserable females who have some dark secrets in their lives, are messed up in their heads and have a lot of emotional baggage. No idea why.

Can we all tell our first-girlfriend stories?

Well, I was 12. She was my sister's best friend. 4 of us went to a public swimming pool (me, my sister, jessica (gf), and my cousin Robin). She whispered to Robin, and then Robin said to me "Jessica wants to know if you would go out with her"... and I said I guess so.
Lasted ~2 weeks.. I've already mentioned her before. She's really one of the only actual girlfriends I've had, where I left the house with her, and continued the relationship as an "official" one

Never had one. Shut up, Eric.

Doesn't matter. If you've even had one, people like me will inevitably see mentioning even that as a deliberate attempt to spite us and make us feel worthless, and will subsequently start flinging dramatic quotes at you and hate your guts.

So, to sum things up: From hell's heart, I stab at thee, Eric Scowler!

Oh yeah... no one can resist The Cheat... suave...

Solution: Stop trying so damn hard.

I really don't care anymore... still, it hurts when people brag about it. Dunno why really.

Howsat, Zorro my man?

Eh. Women don't exist to validate you and your manhood.

X-G, I have to try hard and take risks... how else will I gain experience points in the RPG I call 'life?' And I'm sorry if I in any way made you feel bad... but really for most people having had a girlfriend is not something remarkable enough to 'brag' about.

Oh, and hey, don't worry. All the cool kids I know are lonely people with their love lives in shambles, sporting eternally red eyes, constantly being chased by deer trying to lick the salt off of their faces because they've been sobbing so much, with empty pits of despair inside their stomachs they can only fill temporarily by whining to other people about it, which only makes them feel really stupid, as if they accidentally forgot to wear pants and underpants one day and walked into a full class of 30 students and went up to the teacher's desk demanding that she re-mark a failed test and promising to "bone up on the polymer unit" that one time when I was 16.

Of course. I meant: programmers aren't worthless = they are 100% normal people (or close to it), still able to have real life.

They aren't good != they are worthless. They are just good at other things.

EDIT: Misread your post.

I haven't said that real life consists of only good things, but people still can live it. Programmers aren't much different from normal people so I guess they are able to live outside computer too, just as normal people.
