The Curse of Super Dave

This post is not directed toward any one person or any singular event. Though, it is a result of recent events and conversations in my life.

I am under the suspicion that I am a cursed individual. I don't know if it is some crazy gypsy curse put on me at birth, if a lil leprechaun cursed me due to stealing his gold, or if I simply have a string of bad luck. Here is the basis of my Curse, I consider myself to be a pretty good guy. I love God. I care about people. I laugh a lot. I am honest and real. I could go on, but won't. I mean to make it simple, I'm f'n Super Dave. It's not just a clever nickname. But for some reason, all of the ladies I pursue don't have the "x" factor towards me. By "x" factor, I mean chemistry, attraction, romantic leanings, feelings, the whole "like " aspect. They like me as a person and friend but not as more. I am told I am a great guy, but the feelings just aren't there. I don't fault them, and I don't fault myself. It's not something I can create for them. I have tried before by being romantic and sweet but it didn't help. So, I have decided that I am cursed. Cursed by being an awesome guy who has not possessed the "x" factor. Damn that leprechaun and his f'n curse...

Super Dave said...

could be, then all i ask is that someone point me in the direction of the right girl...

Dave I promise you're not a cursed individual. You are an attractive, intelligent, and quite comical guy and you'll find someone. The wait sucks, but I'm sure it will be worth it in the end.

I think if you've honestly been praying about it, then maybe this is God's way of keeping you perfectly for the one he has in mind.

I gotta admitt, I'm not always sure that God has "people in mind" for us. But then again, I've failed to accept or wait for God's answers quite a few times. And it has usually gotten me in trouble.

It'll come, it always does.

I don't know who anonymous is... but F that. Dave I feel you! All the good girls date the jerks and cry on the good guys shoulder. Just remember the Tao of Steve

1. Be desireless
2. Be excellent
3. Be gone

If you really want to date a girl you have to remember that they like a little element of danger. You can be the nice guy and still be dangerous. But alot of girls get confused and think that evil is dangerous. Praying may help, but you have to do your part and market yourself in the right way. Girls don't just fall in your lap... and if they did... as fun as that may be... that may not be the girl you're looking for.

Josh said...

Lucas...Amen!!!
Super Dave,
superheroes always get the girls by the end of the movie...except DareDevil, which we'll ignore for this segment...look at Spiderman, he got the girl...took him a bit, but he got her, fear not super dave, the hero of the day always gets a girl...

Sup,
Keep up the search brother. You'll find a girl who will knock you on your @ and you'll love her.

Peace bro

Dave- Seeing how you've spurred (i don't think this is the word i'm going for...insert one that makes sense)..more comments in this one blog than any others, I think this issue is something both sexes feel strongly about...therefore leading me to believe that you are not alone in your experiences or feelings! It's quite common for many people to experience these things...so just keep on keepin on (ok, that was gay, but you know what i mean).

Josh said...

Mr. or Mrs. Anonymous...

Grow a pair and stop w/ the anonymous crap...

Long Live SuperDave!!!

Anonymous said...

"Sueaky"...I'd rather not grow a pair. I'm pretty comfortable with my lack there-of...but thanks for the comment. You seem like a sweet guy.

Anonymous said...

Hm....how many anonymouses are we?

Lucas said...

I tried growing a pair once. I only got a single.

But I disagree. I don't think both sexes struggle with this. I think girls are stupid and we have to suffer for it. Girls suffer FROM their actions of picking crappy guys. Guys suffer BECAUSE those dumb girl won't open their eyes and realize they are dating a guy who will just grow up to be an abusive husband or he'll throw her away.

But Josh is right Dave, you have to at least wait for the sequel to get the girl.

Anonymous said...

Lucas...you sound a bit bitter. Do you chase "dumb" girls often?

Anonymous said...

FIrst off, Lucas, just wait for the second one. Secondly, girls are dumb, they try to play it off by making the guy dumb and making him the bad guy, but the simple fact that they keep on going with the bad guy speaks greatly for their level of intelligence. Dave I feel for you man and I hope that this curse that has been cast upon you will be broken. If need be we can hold a four-leaf clover for ransom or something. I'll be praying for ya man. Piece.

Lucas said...

Anonymous... you sound a bit female. So naturally you and I are not going to see eye to eye on this. But yes I have seen and chased my fair share of girls who date jerks, get abused, and keep going back for more. The sad part is usually they are great girls that have just conviced themselves that this idiot is the best they can do and settle for him when there are great guys like my man Dave here waiting to actually be grateful to treat her like God's daughter.

Dave you're the man.

Josh said...

I really have nothing to say, other than that super dave rules and that i wanted to be the 17th comment on here...and yes, lucas, we shall hang out sometime....let me know when your down this way....

Anonymous said...

I'm sure you are all great guys. Dave, I agree that you're the man. BUT...just because a girl turns you down doesn't mean she's dumb. C'mon...are we all suffering the disease of inflated egos? Girls struggle with dating as well, but we don't need to put each other down for it. If we are all "trusting" that God is will provide for us in this area, what's all this bashing and insanity about?

Super Dave said...

wow, i had no idea i would open such a plethora of commenting on this subject, 17 comments from other people about it...

Josh said...

plethora....an amazing word that has been quoted in an amazing movie....2 cool points for whomever know which movie and 1 bonus point for whomever knows who said it.....

Anonymous said...

Lucas,
you need to leave girls alone and not be so jaded... I'm sure you have prolly broken your fair share of sweet girls' good hearts... As for nice guys... They are usually the ones that end up with the sweetest hottest chicks.....so Dave, you will definitely have the last laugh... I know quite a few awesome girls who thought you were all that and a bag of chips... you just never asked them out... the best girls don't do the chasin'

Anonymous said...

I don't know who the other anonymous's are, but the last few comments were right on

Super Dave said...

Anonymous said...

Amen Comment 21

Josh said...

what the crap, anonymous's's'....all of you that are nameless....leave lucas alone, what did he ever do to you?...and as for super, i'm number 25...what up sucker!

Anonymous said...

Alot of girls who date bad boys.. were physically or sexually abused as a child and that is all they know or think that they deserve.. so before you judge all women based on the actions of some.. examine yourself and realize that people have secrets hidden away that they do not share and you do not always know the full story

Anonymous said...

First, I must say that I am laughing as I write this b/c I'm comment number 27 and that's just craziness...
You should publish this blog dave...you'd be a superstar.
Also, uh....no offense, but what up anonymous 26? I totally agree, but chill woman.

Anonymous said...

Though I have a great boyfriend, I have many friends who have bad boyfriends/husbands. So why do they stay with these bad boys? There was a time when the guy did not treat them badly. Most of these guys treated their girlfriends great at the beginning, and over time they began to treat them like crap. The girls have hope that their guy will someday change back into the guy they first dated, the guy who won her over and treated her special. Bad relationships are not usually bad from day one. It slowly builds over time to where the girl feels "stuck" with her choice. (side note: most of these girls have bad relationships with their dads; so dads, love your girls)

Josh said...

going off of comment #28...


Fathers be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers, who turn into mothers
So mothers be good to your daughters too

Interesting discussion...

believe me. a girl could think she was making a smart decision and still get blown out of the water.

i wouldn't be speaking out of experience, though.

Josh said...

#33...just wanted to post another comment since no one said anything since the last one

Anonymous said...

Tell us Ron, what is it like to be in 'love'?

Well...

Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight, Gonna grab some afternoon delight... My motto's always been 'when it's right, it's right' Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night?
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day... And we know the night is always gonna be there any way... Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite. Looking forward to a little afternoon delight. Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ingite, And the thought of lovin' you is getting so exciting... SKY ROCKETS IN FLIGHT (beeeeeuuuuooo) Afternoon delight! (beeeeeuuuaaaa) Afternoon delight, Afternoon delight....


proceeding to mix movies now...

YOU'RE MY BOY BLUE!!!!!! or should I say...

It wouldn't have hurt so much if it was a two-ply toilet paper...I loved that blog...

(Ok, Nols, quit striking the keys with your two index fingers)

Nols and Lincoln renunion August 17, 2005...be there...

Lucas said...

I refuse to stand by and just watch this happen.

I propose we go back to arranged marriages.

Comment 37 suckers!

Josh said...

...and coming in at comment #38...

Arranged marriages?!?!?!?!

ah yes, that would be nice....but i feel like it would be just like kickball or dodgeball back in grade school...and how it is in college....
follow me on this...

everyone would get picked...usually the one that would work best for your team...(which for this analogy we'll call "marriage") thus the best would be picked first....and now who do you think would be picked last?....well usually the weakest link....(we'll call him squeaky...just for kicks)...therefore, i'm thinkn' that arranged marriages would just suck just as much as kickball or dodgeball did in grade school...and in college....oh poor me.....

-Nols.....yes you get the bonus points for The 3 Amigos quote.

new post dave.. we miss you

Anonymous said...

i agree!! NEW POST!!!

but remember, my offer always stands!

Super Dave said...

no new post till those who still remain anonymous reveal their identities...

Anonymous said...

BONUS POINT !!!! What what!!! Arranged marriages eh?? I thought about that, has anyone ever seen Maid in Manhatten? Well, I haven't seen it, but some other poor schmuck of a guy (We will call him Nolan) told me that in this one scene J-lo's dad tells her of his arranged marriage on how it started off as hate and turned into love, cause they didn't have a choice...

well, i don't know how that applies...but COMMENT 42!!! THAT'S RIGHT!!!

Adam said...

Dave I have not checked your blog for some time and this is crazy. There we like 5 comments that were good none of them from anonymous (I think).

Lucas your rationality on dating cracks me up and is true.

Just do the online dating thing for real. There is no way you can go wrong you talk to lots of girls with similar interests and goals. If you don't like them then poof they dissapear at the click of your mouse or a decision not to reply.

My only advice is patience and plugging away (take risks and oppertunities by the horns). I would also say don't make it a big deal but I know that is easy to say and not easy to do.

I dated my x for 3 years took 3 1/2 more years to find another. girl.

Anonymous said...

Superdave, you are like the king..
43 comments. I think I am 44.... I have to say that you were the hottest (and nicest) pope....

Josh said...

what gives.....commenting stops at number 44?....i don't think so....
...why has everyone been so quiet on here?....keep the ball rolling....and maybe it will hit something....

Anonymous said...

im with the squeakers on this one...honestly...but hey, girls are bad news, they are and always have been...it just seems like they can't make up their mind...but remember this, the girl that seeks you out may not always be the worthwhile choice...take fun in the pursuit of that wild tigress...

pcg said...

Haha...oh Nols..you're a nerd :-)...Oh, also, S-dave...I maaaay have been anonymous a couple times..yes, i'm a coward ok, *tear* haha

pcg said...

Dave- how do you add people to your friend list on blogspot? Can't figure it out...

Anonymous said...

oh kimmieD...quit posting so many comments...honestly....

Anonymous said...

uh oh....number 50! Watch out...Although, I think the best way to fix the girl/boy problem is just to be more open and honest with each other, more communication, and not bein so scared of what people thinkg - the lack of communication is what causes all the ridiculous problems in the dating scene. :/
