TOPIC: How to get over feelings of hopelessness?

How to get over feelings of hopelessness? 09 May 2014 15:54 #125075

I'm constantly warring with my feelings of hopelessness. I try to tell myself that I'm good looking, but I can't accept what I see in the mirror (my small-chin weakling face). Then I go out to the street and see all the genetically blessed guys and can't help but think - why would a hot girl choose me over them? I also look at couples where I think the girl is hot, and they are almost always with someone who is tall and has a strong, masculine face, and these are things I have no control over. And these times I think what hope do I have?
Pretty girls on the street never return eye contact, I feel like I am some invisible/sexually neutral street fodder. I dress good, always style my hair, stand upright, but this won't make my face handsome.
And then I gather my courage and approach a girl, my voice is firm, I maintain strong eye contact, and say: "hey, I saw you get off that bus and I had to come after you, I think you are really pretty" (not exact words, I'm not English), and she answers, without a single hint of smile or sympathy: "well, sorry but it's not mutual. i have to go."
And then the rest of my day is spent wallowing in my self doubt, hating the way I look, thinking about all the hot girls I will never have, while the luckier looking guys can get them.
What the f**k can I do to escape this place?

Just surrender from that feeling. Accept it and learn to let go. If I'm having a night of rejections my frame of mind is, okay I'm going to fucking destroy this place then. The crazy thing is when you surrender to your feelings you start to kill it.

It can't be a "technique" though. You really have to be able to let go.

Been there. You answered your own question. They are feelings and feelings can and should be ignored. If you give them credence they keep coming back. If they are ignored, over time, they will go away. Eventually, you learn to cope with them and believe it or not, they make you stronger as a person. Good luck.
