Thanks @denoxblogger. Unfortunately what you say there is a lot of Truth. Women mostly do look for Men who can hold their own.
It's that way even among animals. The female lion looks for the strongest lion to mate with etc.etc..
But I know what you mean. It can be frustrating. But there are women, imho, who will see the potential in a guy and look to inspire him even if he is not ultra successful
Yeah man, that is very true. And the issue is that there are not enough women in Western Society that are willing to help a guy who does not seem much going for him but had huge potential. If you watch the relationship in an anime I love of Haruyuki and Kuroyukihime from Accel World, it shows a beautiful high school girl falling in love with a small chubby kid that did not have much going for him in the real world but see huge potential in him in the virtual world. I think its something your kids may like too XD
