The reason why I suck when it comes to girls...

I'm sure many people have already had this thought in their minds: "Man, that Leon seriously sucks with chicks. Try as hard as he can, he'll never get a girl".

Painful as it is, I can't help but admit that it's true. Well, I thought long and hard, and I've come up with a few reasons to why I'm a sap with chicks. They are as follows:

1) I have no specific talent/skill of any sort
Yeah, this is quite saddening. I don't really have much of a talent that would mean something to people. Okay, maybe I do have my magic, but I take magic more as an art than a talent. Apart from that, I doubt I have anything strong to back me up. Some people say I have a talent of assembling things (E.g. Ikea furniture, miniature models, etc.)... News flash! Assembling is NOT a talent. What about cooking? I am taking Culinary Arts after all... Well, I'm not too sure about that, but perhaps I could work on it. I have yet to discover a talent or skill which would make me stand out... But until then, I'm the same talent-less me...

2) I have a problem with maintaining conversations with the girl I like...
Probably my WORST flaw when it comes to chicks... I always had a problem with maintaining conversation with the girl I like... And my conversation topics become very limited and narrow... This flaw has really made me hate myself very much... The problem with me is that I'm too afraid of taking risks when it comes to the girl I like... I'm afraid that if I talk too much random stuff, I might annoy her. But at the same time, I'm afraid that if I don't talk at all, I won't make any progress... I get emo very easily every time I think about this flaw... Why am I so afraid? How is it that other guys seem to be so natural and smooth when it comes to talking with the ones they like, that they could keep it going and going? And why is it that I can't do the same? Sigh... What is it that I'm missing? I squeeze my brain dry trying to think of how to improve my conversation skills, but nothing seems to come to mind... I ask people for tips on how to improve, but all of them keep giving me the same answer: "Be random with your topics"....

I probably need help... Psychiatric or Counseling help, perhaps... Get to the root of this flaw of mine, and eliminate it...

3) I'm too harsh
To cut a long story short, I'm just gonna jump to what I'll try to do. I've been quite a harsh person, and sometimes I don't even notice it, because I've gotten quite used to it. I should start being more of a gentleman, in terms of actions and speech. Less vulgarity, and try to be more of a funny guy.

4) I take things too personally
Sometimes I take things too personally, even if it was meant to be a joke... Which is probably why my college buddies call me 'Emo Kid'. I either get pissed easily because of certain things I hear, or jealous and sad over certain things I see... This has got to stop... If I go on like this, I'm gonna lose more friends than I gain... But then again... How? It's an emotional thing... Changing this one's gonna be a tough one...

5) I don't look good
The title says it all. I don't look good, and that contributes to me losing out when it comes to chicks. This, I'm afraid, I can't do anything about... Maybe I should wear brighter clothes to draw their attention away from my face...

6) I have a problem with looking into peoples' eyes
Although eye contact is important during conversations, I have this problem with maintaining eye contact. I mean, I do look at their eyes every now and then, but it won't be long. Just an occasional one second glance, then I throw my concentration toward some other part of a person's face, usually the mouth or chin... Had this problem ever since I was a kid. Used to be worse, but slowly improving.

Speaking about this, reminds me of a funny incident that happened sometime back. I was talking to Kah Mun (my college pal), and was looking down on to the floor. Then she suddenly asked me: "Hey Leon. You like to look at breasts, right? Because everytime you're looking downwards when talking"...

Damn... Thinking about it, looking at the floor could look like I'm looking at something else to other people, and it can be quite suggestive to girls... So nowadays, I found myself trying my best to maintain eye contact completely, or throw my point of vision on another object completely... I must beat this flaw as well...

Well, these 6 are the main ones. There are some minor reasons as well, but I'll try to fix them. As for these 6 reasons, have to find a way to overcome them. I'm probably gonna need all the help I could get.

(If you people plan to write something to mock my flaws after reading this, then please do me a favour, and save it!)
