I've always been pretty popular with women, I think it's because I'm fairly confident and always come off as fairly happy. I'm also not scared to speak my mind on things.

There was a point before I met my wife, where I was really sad, longing for companionship. I was going on dating sites and stuff, I thought the only way to feel better was to get a girlfriend of some sort.

I told one of my friends of my issue, and they basically told me to "stop looking", I redirected, started looking for friends instead of relationships. Not even 1 month later, I met my now wife.
