    I asked if you can make yourself look thinner by the magic of photoshop, and people said it couldn't be done! Of course it can be done! Anything is possible in the digital world. I mean they are just 1 and 0 afterall.

    How about using the time in Photoshop to do some self-assesment? Take a self-improvement course. Or 20. I'm sure if they saw your posts they'd let you join for free.

      Your first application was started just a few threads down and it's resuming here in this thread. If you aren't laughing yet just wait. It gets better...:-D

        ...I expect he'll give himself a huge, poofy haircut as the follow-up. Chicks dig guys with giant 'fros, right?

          I also just wanted to add this. When you find the right girl it won't be this hard. If it's *this* hard you'll never find her. You gotta relax. Women can read desparation like blind people read brail. Yes it's that obvious to them. If your willing to photoshop then your going to come across in other areas equally desparate. Kick back, relax. Get a dog and go for a lot of walks to coffee shops that are kind of far away. Chicks dig dogs, walking and coffee. Your butt will shrink. You'll get a fresh perspective on life and it will be good for you in ways you cannot imagine. Get a membership at a health club and be social. Where I go to work out it's the chattiest dang place on earth. I swear... It seems like everyone is trying to score on everyone or they are just *really* good friends. But you'll find health clubs are a great place to meet people. Pick a hobby that requires classes and that you would enjoy. Photography is one of the best examples and I know so many people who've bought a decent camera, taken some classes, met some like minded people and hit it off. Same with mountaineering. Get some climbing gear (no you don't have to tackle Hood or Everest) and take some climbing classes. There's a ton of healthy social ways to advertise yourself, drop some weight and do it all in a healthy way that will *just* work. Photoshop just seems like mixing drano with flour and hoping it turns out like cocaine. It's just not going to work no matter what you do and you'll hurt yourself if you aren't careful.

          If it's that easy, life wouldn't have to be that hard! Also, for the record, I'm not desparete, I just wanted to learn a few new tricks with photoshop, and see if I can do it. ;)

            Well I can understand the photoshop part. Honestly, I don't think meeting people is hard. You just have start meeting them and being social. I agree that sounds easier than it is but it's something you practice over and over and suddenly your pretty good at it. Anyway, not a big deal and good luck with whatever it is you are up to. When you finally find Mrs. Right I want to know what you thought of the effort you had to put into meeting and matching up with her.
