I am looking for advice on finding ways to find a girlfriend.

My situation is currently rather bleak, as I lost my driver's license over a year ago, recently was turned down from my studies, and have no income. But I am in the process of getting my license back in about 6 months, and will begin studying on Mars 18 next year, and will continue to search for a job until my studies begin. I am also looking to move away from my hometown to Stockholm.

Do you have general advice?
Ways to find a good date?
Do you know any better, free and reliable dating website that people use?

I am looking for someone that likes sex, food and drinking. She should have a dominating but kind personality. A girl with lively and energetic charisma. Preferably she should have a driver's license and like to step on the gas. Title doesn’t matter, but I really would like to join the military or navy someday, so perhaps she would preferably have such a job or other title with responsibilities, perhaps security related or police.

Thanks for reading.
 
Looked into what 'therapist' means in Swedish, so is it the same as 'Psykoterapisamtal'? which means Psychotherapy interview in English. If that’s the case, it’s part of the government’s health care which can be had for free if I talk with a doctor first.
 
I think you should forget about looking for a girlfriend and focus on improving your immediate situation. If you enter a relationship and offer a bleak situation, it's not going to be a good relationship. The better approach may be to simply ask the universe, without anticipating( i.e. like the type of woman you think you want), that you would like to experience being with a good woman, and then work on yourself to make sure you are a good man. The universe will take care of the rest.

And if you are looking for sex, food, and drinking... This forum is not a dating site but a site to help people operate at a higher frequency, so maybe you should rethink your priorities.

I am glad you took your time to respond. I hope what I write doesn't upset anyone.

In my experience, from what I learned, is that one has to do, and that "the universe" don't take care of anything by itself. In other words, I don't think that a woman will just fall into my world when everything is sorted out with my situation, even if I ask the universe, it will just be call to "skies".

I don't expect to get a girlfriend overnight and this can take some time. Within 6 months "everything" will be sorted out, in half of that time I will be studying and have income. That is, if things turn out right. So maybe I should see a therapist now?

There are probably many here that agree with what you said. But I disagree, and I do think at least some people on this forum also disagree. There is nothing wrong with sex and food, but perhaps with drinking, and perhaps the word 'drinking' is what made my sentence somewhat 'bad' in this context. We all eat, and we all probably drink, some more some less, and sex is just what it is.

I am not dating anyone on this website, just looking for advice. Is this topic not an 'okay topic'?
 
There is the old saying "If the pupil is ready, the teacher will appear". I think it's the same with GF - whenever you need to learn a lesson that person will pop up in your life - for good or bad.

I know, sounds a bit simplistic, but that is exactly what has happened to me with GFs - and the lesson will only get apparent a long time after the fact.

So be careful what you are wishing for ... :-)
 
I think it is worthwhile to really think deeply about what characteristics and values your ideal girlfriend would have. Describe your perfect woman and include aspects of her spirituality, kindness, morality etc as well as the more basic need to have common interests.
Then think deeply about whether you are the kind of person your ideal girlfriend would want to be with. Work to becoming that person.

From your description of what you are looking for, you could just order an Uber, drive through Maccas and get dropped off at the whorehouse.

Seriously, do you actually want to be in a relationship? Because from the sounds of it you have some life things to sort out and adding a relationship into the mix isnt going to fix anything and will most likely compound any 'situations' you are dealing with. Not to mention, we tend to attract people into our lives who meet us where we are at so then there may be 2 of you in a bleak situation.

From my own experience having been happily married for 17 years, my husband pretty much appeared when I was settled in myself.

So maybe start by doing some serious work on yourself, sort out the bleak and allow a relationship to happen when you are actually in the right state for it.

Have you read all of Lauras books and gone through the recommended reading list? Are you eating a good diet? Is your lifestyle wholesome? Are you doing the work?

Just some questions to enquire as to where and who you are.
 
Laundromat. Thrift shop. Places real life occurs that women go. But… it sounds like some self-work is indeed in order. A “girlfriend” may not be the droid you are looking for.
Realistically, I don't think many women, at least of my age and type, go such places. I was at a bar at one evening maybe a week ago and took a beer, just regular folks there, no women. I lived in this town my whole life, and I never seem to find any people here that seem to fit my profile, which is another reason I am planning on moving away from here. But I am looking for a girlfriend, not C-3PO.

😂 “sex, food and drinking.” Go to the pub.
Sure, there is a pub in this town where nothing ever happens. I will go for a beer, just to observe what people goes in. But I bet that most places these days are rather civilized and people who go out are already in relationships and have families and orders something to eat. Perhaps I am wrong but it's not like in the movies or like it was some decade ago, at least in this town, where people would get drunk and have fun, but then again, I don't go out much.

Thanks for one of the more serious replies so far. I will try to describe my 'perfect woman'. She should be between 25-35, white skin, blue eyes, in good health. And seriously, good looking. The value merit would be that she isn't religious or follow any odd teachings. UFO/alien interest like myself is fine. Cleans up after herself and keeps a good hygiene. I would like to have a dominant, kind, and reflective woman. Motherly in her relationship. She should fit my taste for things, for example, I prefer leather sofas so should she, I can listen to rap music, she should be capable of hearing it, and I should in retrospect be able to listen and like the things she is likes when riding in a car for example. I would not be in a relationship with someone who doesn't fit my profile. Since I am somewhat at times a person who may get ideas and find myself in odd situations, my perfect woman could be a woman, who doesn't fear at all to correct me when I am getting 'psychotic'. So, if she wanted to, she could really use physical corrections, like grabbing me if I am about to do something which I myself don't quite understand what I am doing at those situations. This is something that should work, because if that doesn't work then I guess there is no point in continuing a relationship. Sexually, it's important that that works. I would not feel offended if I got a whip pushed down my throat. I Hope this describes better what I am looking for.

Except I don't eat McDonalds, I prefer kebab rolls.

Yes.

In short, I came into the C's material when I was 13 years old. I have not read all of Laura's books, but I have read some through the years. As for the recommended reading I have read a few books mentioned there. I am listening to Valiant Thor right now but otherwise I haven't done much reading. I have a simple diet, but have eliminated candy, soda, sugar and milk. I only drink water when I eat, which seems better for me. Lots of meat, oranges, paprika and lemon. I don't smoke tobacco anymore but smoke Vape, which is steam not smoke. My health is good, but sometimes when I feel uncomfortable my eye sight gets worsened for some reason. Usually, it happens when I haven't eaten too well and have drinken too much water or if I have come into contact with fragrances from some people.

I feel ready to face the teacher.
 
Hi mate,

You already got some great advice from the previous posters. I'll try not to repeat much already said, and focus on the essentials, as I see them.

First, psychotic episodes, and any major loss of self-control. Those need to disappear more or less completely before you can start dating. No reasonable quality lady will want to deal with those, and it's your job as a man to keep your woman protected from threats both external and internal. You'll be part of the relationship itself, so your lack of control is an internal threat, even if you are not dangerous per se. So, psychotherapy, most definitely needed. You may also end up needing to see a proper clinical psychologist as well, maybe even a psychiatrist for the meds. That's fine. Make sure your therapists are reputable, and let them know you hope any meds will not decrease your capabilities. You're pretty lucky you are in Sweden, the public health is good and lots of things are free.

Second, you are a grown-ass man, and women prefer men who are full fledged productive members of the society. Working gives a sense of purpose and makes life much less
bleak. That means you need a job. Don't be too picky about it. It's important that you are able to do it well, that you don't hate it and that you can deal with your workmates alright. Other than that, almost anything goes, as long as it's legal and isn't wearing you out. Be open to move to a bigger city for this job, you wanna get out of that little town anyway.

Third, keep working on yourself, in every way. Join a gym and go multiple days a week, get back into a sport - especially team sport if you can, or a martial art perhaps. Get a hobby, or a few. Maybe, an instrument? A DJ course? Maybe, a drone piloting course? Maybe, a reading club? Many options out there. They all make life fuller and happier, and take some of that bleakness away. The best part is, you might meet new people, and people know people, and some of them even know, or themselves are, young single females!

Fourth, if you haven't yet, learn to cook! YouTube or local clubs, or just trying out new things at home, trial and error, doesn't matter how. It's actually important for mental health as well as physical, and your future partner with value will know how to value your cooking skills, even if you use them only occasionally.

And, fifth, keep up The Work here!

Lastly, do try to keep yer drinking under control. It's the poor man's medication, and even then, it's a pretty darn poor medication. Getting fitter and sportier will take away some of the need for booze...

Best luck to you mate, and keep us posted!

I'm not sure dating sites are a good idea. There you will find single mothers with children, women looking for companionship to forget their ex or lonely women who have had a series of conquests but who are not capable of choosing the right partner for a serious relationship. Your criteria are very targeted, you won't find anything that way. When your situation improves, I suggest you find something to do to meet people. The ideal woman remains the traditional woman. Her concern is to start a family and stay with her man. For the rest we make concessions and we adapt.
