What do you do if you're naturally 'weird' anyway?
People are always saying that you should just be yourself and be natural, when dating.
Then I read that one of the main turn-offs is being creepy (understandable) and that 'weirdness' freaks girls out.
But what if being yourself, means being a bit weird and strange anyway?
I'm a bit like that myself. Maybe I would more describe myself as quirky. My sense of humour is quite quirky and a bit intellectual.
This sometimes means me coming across as a bit 'weird' or 'strange' and people often spray this insult back at me, but that's what my natural self is like.
If I'm like that, I am being genuine and naturally me. I hate small talking, dumbing myself down and 'being normal' like everyone else. It just doesn't feel right to me. (Though I am also very gentlemanly, and take an interest in girls as individuals).
What is supposed to be wrong with this?
Is there indeed, anything wrong being like this?
After all, girls say they like blokes who are being genuine and being themselves.

Your personality is whatever you want it to be and are comfortable with, if you are not comfortable about being left out socially, you don't have to sit back and let yourself be. When people say "be yourself" what they really mean is "be comfortable", everybody acts differently with differnt people and change over time, there isn't one natural way of being, you don't have to appear "weird" if you don't want to. And nobody really likes small talk, it's not just you, it's boring and awkward but it's an essential part of getting to know strangers, as you can't dive into personal things with people you don't know or they may get offended and get the wrong impression of you. Everybody has quirks and things about them other people would find weird, the trick is not revealing them except with people you know would understand and find it interesting, then people will be more drawn to you

I know what you mean. I've been myself for years and it hasn't worked. I suggest you decide what sort of girl you want, go to a place where those sort of girls meet up and be who you think they want you to be. That may mean doing horrible things, like watching Glee, or getting a haircut.
