*eboraic's profile:

I am a 24 year old male with little life experience (none with women) but many opinions. I give a unique perspective, before a person experiences something think about it in a positive way, children do. And my opinions on reflect that with beliefs in love at first sight and true love conquer

Spending so long being a secret admirer, i am quick to tell women he is not worth it. Im still at that stage where women seem like all fun and no work but am assured by others that willl change.

I find this theraputic, as you can tell from the first paragraph, my life is not a buzz of activity, this helps to fill the voids in my life.

Being a lonely person (not entirely by choice), ive spent a lot of time analysing people, I feel this makes me a useful agony aunt. In a bid to improve my own social life i observe others. If there was a research degree in this field then ive been a student of it since high school.

I live in London, capital city, crammed full of people. It can be a very lonely place to live, there are people every where but none will make eye contact, let alone say hi.
