    Hi guys
    Here I am seeking a piece of your wisdom on a certain girl issue I am struggling with .
    For the last 22 years on earth I never even had a female friends , let alone girl friends .
    I have a couple of friends and they share the same story .
    I am about to complete my graduation and my carrier is just ahead of me . now what I think is that my focus should be on my future , on securing a good job and not thinking about girls .
    Is it apt to think so or should I try for a girl , what do you people say ?

    I'd focus on a hobby and use your job to support it.

    I'd say a job, especially if you enjoy what you want to do, and it gives you a sense of purpose and confidence. A good job will boost your self-esteem, which will make it easier for you to pursue girls, if you choose to do so later on.

    Both. If you nofap you should have the energy :)
     
  6. bhai,Thoda dimaag lagale bhai.Just set back and observe the pros and cons of your situation. I'll explain:
    Condition 1: if you go for a girl:
    Q1 Is it guaranteed that the girl you choose now would be great? I mean beautiful girls aren't everything.She can cheat you,harm you and maybe won't even support your NoFap challenges.My question is,are you going just for Sex or something bigger than that.If you're going for just sex,experiment yourself now and you'll realise your mistake quickly.
    Your goal is to find a girl that can support you in tough times,who is brave herself,and who can understand your situation and can be a devoted girl.
    Q2 Somehow if you find a girl suitable for you,what's the guarantee that she will always be with you?if you'll not have money to take care of her needs,then how'll you manage?If you don't become physically and mentally strong for her,how will she love you? Talk to ladies here,each and everyone of them will say,they want an emotionally and mentally strong partner,who can support them in their bad times. If you don't focus on job,then what will you do for yourself,and much big worry is that what will you do for your partner?
    Condition 2 : if you go for a job:
    Benefit 1: If you learn to earn now and become mentally,physically and financially strong,wouldn't you be the best man for your girl,believe me,you'll be her superhero,a Man whom can she rely on,she can trust on.
    Benefit 2 : If you go for job now,and become professional in your field,then there are better chances of finding a suitable girl. Just think,"A girl who can become professional in her work,also can become professional in handling relationships".She might be brave,intelligent,supportive.She might be superb at handling tough decisions.What more do you need from a girl?

    P.S- This is just an advice,so I'm not forcing you to do anything.The choice is yours,and you should be deciding what to do.I'm just sharing opinions. Thanks for reading.

    What just cause said echoes my sentiments exactly. Focus in your career will have far more benefits than going for a girl now.
     
  8. This.

    How would you support yourself without a job? Parents?

    Did you work during school? Do you have loans? Time to start makin an income and building your resume. Your future girl will appreciate it.

    thanks all for sharing your valuable insights , I guess it is best for me to first get some financial stability and get emotionally stronger . The girl matter can be handled latter , and by then I will be socially more accomplished and better prepared to deal with a relationship .
    BDW justcause47 I have never looked for a fling , I have always wished for a long lasting loving relationship . Though that has eluded me by far . However, I appreciate your deep analysis into my problem . Thanks for your time .
     
  10. Many people meet their girl or man at a job :)

    Plus you need money to date and pay your own bills. You are a man now.

    The girl could come at any point. Focus on the job first, but keep your eyes open for potential relationships along the way!

    Another vote for job. Financial stability and the pursuit of a successful career leads to good ends and will do more to support your relationship efforts in the long run.

    If you can't focus on both, there must be a problem. You should have time and energy to focus on finding both a girl and job, rarely is life just one or the other. Divide your time to look for both, prioritize the job and spend most of your time there, but leave time to find a girl. If you can't do both, take a deep look inside and see what's preventing you from doing both.
    Good luck

    Both needs can be addressed at the same time Nomo but that needs considerable will power and energy . And for now I am kind of struggling with both of these , however I am giving my best to bounce back . and Moreover in quest for my carrier I guess down the road I may gain enough confidence and self respect so that getting a girl wont be such a big deal for me . But right now I should go after one thing .
    the nofap has been a help to me . I hope boycotting porn completely from my life is gonna change my perspective a great deal .

    Hey brother, this is what I want to say to you:

    Of course at this point of your life, everybody will tell you to (fully) focus on your job, career and making money, bacause that is the wise thing to do, especially now during these times of economic difficulties. I'm not an expert on what you're asking, but you're young and I think you should follow your heart. If your heart tells you to go out and find a girl, I think you should do that. I mean, how long will it take to find someone if you'd really focus on socializing and finding a girl, a few months? Maybe a year? And even if you regret it along the way, you can always decide to focus on your career. But if you do find a girl and start a relationship with her, I think she will give you the energy and motivation to focus on your career even better because you will have a new and clear purpose: A comfortable life with your girlfriend and perhaps marriage. And she can be a huge support for you. I think both ways you don't have much to lose.

    I wish you all the best in whatever you decide to do, take care!

    I say you work on the job side of things first, although this shouldn't stop you pursuing a relationship in the meantime. I have left jobs because I've been attracted to girls (young girls) and things didn't work out with them.

  18. He isn't going to be a slave.We are telling him to strengthen himself for the sake of love to his girlfriend.
    I have a question for you,Do people start showboating before they join a gymnasium?People go there to build their body,so that they can show them to other people afterwards.
    but I respect your opinion too.

    I completely understand people who are in favour of girls, being a social being we always want a loving mate and since entering the adulthood we tend to feel more like socialising , without that we feel utterly incomplete .
    Specially when we encounter such instances that trigger our emotions like a sight of couple hanging out in a park , a romantic video song , movies , even small talks . These kind of events totally overwhelm a lonely male . But I also felt that these feelings can be alleviated when we have a feeling of accomplishment , when we are motivated . When we are happy because we have achieved something , cause we are no more pathetic and are optimistic to our life . And getting into a profession which we love can bring about the same effect , By carrier I never assumed to be a money making machine . I meant to become a self reliant , disciplined and more responsible citizen , who knows his responsibility and is committed to his work . In the meantime I guess we are bound to attract ladies because we will be every bit as confident as anybody . I guess I have to be patient right now .
    I am grateful to all the fapstranouts who took time and responded . I could get a general perspective on the matter .
