At 5'5'', he's not gonna win over any woman who has a strong height standard in real life any better than he would on the apps. Height filters just save him the trouble of being rejected when those women ask what his height is. 5'9''-5'11'' men on the apps are in much more trouble. A woman who otherwise would have a 6ft+ height filter might be willing to overlook that after a good chat, but now she won't even see your profile.
You hate men, but you actually know it's like dating women tbh. At least from what I hear, I've never actually experienced giving a girl that meaningless of an ick to my knowledge.
We used to get 2000 posts per day here. Now it's a ghost town. https://preview.redd.it/2hu1zkzwfn3f1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=6182ba0c77f21daaf515a2e981ee8198dc315a01
It's simultaneously impressive and also kind of useless. I've been trying to talk with it about subjects I know a lot about lately, and it kinda starts off mostly correct, but 3 or 4 questions in and it's babbling like a moron and contradicting itself. The fundamental problem is, you can't trust it.
Love bombing is a term used to describe a pattern of intense and overwhelming displays of affection, attention, and flattery, often occurring at the start of a relationship. 🤔
the ring is to just say “this is how much my future husband thinks I’m worth Then why are you criticizing other women who have the exact same mentality?
While I agree with the overall point you're trying to make about social media, lab grown vs real diamond discourse is nothing new. When I was in HS in the late 2000s, in some class I was taking we spent time studying the diamond trade. Even after learning about all the horrors associated with it, and how much of a scam diamonds are, most of the girls still wanted real diamonds.
RP is mostly half truths. Everything about it "works" sometimes. Dread game works if she's already the jealous type and thinks she's competing for you. If she isn't, and she doesn't? Good luck with that. That doesn't mean there is no game involved in dating. There's just no one size fits all approach and a lot of it is playing it by ear. And yeah, when it's someone you want to be with forever, it's just easy.
I literally found out who she was yesterday, but in the pics with her bf where she has long hair and doesn't look totally regarded, yeah. Not exactly my type, but if I liked her otherwise, sure. That's not what I was saying, though.
Like I said, I need God to come through for me https://preview.redd.it/kk6i8pfr0h2f1.jpeg?width=1730&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d34ff3dafaed536761936a90634c6d24bcbe585b
My looksmatch according to ChatGPT. From our future robot overlord's lips to God's ears. https://preview.redd.it/7ewop1p8rg2f1.png?width=1024&format=png&auto=webp&s=22d468d913baad4f81daa433a9f049496840365f
Fuck no. They're palm reader tier charlatans. I let a hypnotist try to hypnotize me once, and I just fell asleep. He tried to play it off like I was just in deep hypnosis, but no, I was just asleep.
My boss a few years back had a Ukrainian mail order bride. I don't know many details, but I know he found her online and went over there to meet her, then married her obviously. They had a kid together too.
I've met people who within the span of three conversations started talking about how they wished they could go back to being a kid. They were always trainwrecks of people.
They both seem like bad actors tbh. I watched it again, though, and you could easily interpret it as him being unsure about how she saw him and he was just protecting his ego. He sheepishly says "you decide [what we are]."
Marriage is forever in name only, though. Yeah, it's harder to break up, but that's not gonna stop anyone once they become unhappy. And why would you want to be with someone who's unhappy anyways?
I honestly don't think my life would be meaningfully different if I dropped out of HS and just got a GED. I bet I could've passed that test at 14. I barely graduated HS and then had a near 4 GPA in college when I gave a shit. I'd judge them on where they are, not where they've been.
I think it mostly boils down to incels being miserable (I don't mean that to sound dismissive) and people generally disliking other people who complain and/or put negative energy out into the world.
Q4All What's worse, someone who smells like BO or someone who smells like they took a bath in cologne/perfume. Assume you can smell either one from 20 feet away.
America's probably never been been less popular internationally, but in the midst of that, an American pope is elected for the first time. Does anyone else find that a bit weird?
It does feel like it's all downhill from here politically in the US. At least until something catastrophic knocks people into their senses. I would've preferred things go on as they were, but I guess I'm one of the lucky ones.
The experience of drinking alcoholic beverages is like 90% the alcohol. I like beer, whiskey, and red wine a lot, but if you take the alcohol out of it, I don't really get it. I'd love to smoke again, but if you offered me a nicotine free cigarette, that's a pretty easy "no thanks."
I am pretty sure it's women who complain the most about guys being unattractive on dating apps 🤔 They do. They get pumped and dumped which is arguably much worse than not getting matches at all. Their looksmatch with 5 or less matches a month isn't pumping and dumping them
So why do you care if mid/average/unattractive men don't like mid/average/unattractive women so much? You don't like mid/average/unattractive men either.
No one listens to blue pillers because they have no consistent set of beliefs. They're just here to argue against red pill, and they say whatever's convenient in the moment to serve their argument.
She did it in an awkward kind of autistic way, but telling a guy he smells good is generally one of the more overt ways women go about indicating sexual interest.
No matter what the real story is (I'm inclined to believe her side), at the root of it, he was doing too much too soon. That's way too grand of a gesture a month in.
You want to get them back? Get them to launch into a long winded and largely irrelevant personal story to justify their argument. Reply "I don't care."
I've never heard about a couple sleeping in separate beds and been surprised. It's never two attractive people. I sleep better alone like 85% of the time, but I still can't imagine not wanting to sleep with my partner. Going to bed together/waking up in the morning next to her is better than waking up feeling like I've had a good night's sleep.
Yeah, but not because they're around a lot of men. The women drawn to certain jobs (medical, hair stylist, flight attendant, etc.) are just known to be crazier than average, and crazy women cheat.
Even if he didn't, most men aren't gonna be progressive enough for her anyways. And nah, MAGA people aren't that out with it in places where they're a minority. I live in a deep blue state and most guys I know voted for Trump (or didn't vote), but it's not like they're wearing MAGA hats and shit.

If she buzzed her head and had a less goofy expression... Fuck it, who am I kidding? I don't even need to read it to know there's a bunch of dudes thirsting for her in the comments as she is.
I'm the diamond in the dirt that ain't been found https://preview.redd.it/h19tuhoxbwxe1.jpeg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8908b24114eec7810271ad97838ac74b8fd9e2a6

Ah, yeah, female friends who you hang out with one on one is pretty rare after a certain age. Most people don't want someone they're serious about hanging out with the opposite sex one on one.
Maybe I'm not making myself clear: If AI was as advertised, people should be flipping a shit over it. Instead, they either don't care, think it's fun, or hope to profit off of it somehow.
I think a big part of it is women don't want to be held to that standard and are willing to compromise on physique. For a ONS based purely on physical attraction, most women are preferring something closer to the right than the left.
I think a lot of what she said is true, but I don't think men get intimidated by women who make the first move. I know of a lot of relationships personally where the woman pursued the guy initially, or at least went out of her way to get his attention. She's either just aiming too high and/or is hideous. The idea guys get intimidated in these situations is a c*pe, frankly.
r dating r dating_advice are two places I know of Tons and tons of stories from women where they fall hopelessly in love with a guy who has given zero indication he even likes them (for anything besides sex).
My whole dating strategy is about trying to skate by as 6ft until she's too in love with me to care when she pulls out the tape measure and finds out the truth
Idk if this applies to everyone, but when I attend traditionally social events alone, I feel like I'm acknowledging I couldn't find anyone else to go with. That doesn't mean everyone else notices or cares, and it doesn't mean you shouldn't do what you want you want to do solo. You probably won't be the only one there solo, and you definitely aren't the only person who wishes they were there that couldn't muster the courage.
You don't think you're worthy of someone going back in time to fuck with you? Sad. All jokes aside, I left out some context. ChatGPT is 100% right in this case, despite its flaws.
That's not even true because doctors predate welding by a couple ten thousand years according to google. It's not classist bullshit. One is harder the other. One makes more money than the other. One is harder to replace than the other Just because they're both useful doesn't mean they're equally useful.
Idk if it's abuse, but I agree pretending to be mad is bad form. You could act however you are natural inclined to be and also remind him you're still upset about what you fought about in the morning. If it re-ignites the fight, then you have a reason to be mad and it solves your issue of having to fake being mad. Ideally it leads to a more productive discussion where you make up.
I think it is ultimately probably best for the west if the war continues. It keeps Russia occupied and their capacity to cause trouble elsewhere in the world limited. Basically using Ukraine as a bullet sponge. People don't like to say that out loud because it's evil. I guess no one's really making the Ukrainians fight though.
They basically think we're 'just two more weeks' from the Russian economy collapsing, or Ukraine mounting an offensive that breaks Russian lines and drives them out of occupied territory. They also correctly recognize that Trump doesn't really care about anything besides being able to gloat about being a great dealmaker.
I bet you wouldn't have been so happy single if you found nothing to your liking was out there for you when you decided to try to find/became open to a relationship.
I think he wants a loving monogamous relationship, which is hard to come by for gay men from what I understand. I think that's why he capes for/identifies with women.
"Hey man, been a long time. I was thinking about that we [memory y'all shared]. How ya been?" If it fizzles or is awkward then you go back to the way things are. No big deal.
115-130 is the best place to be because you're smarter than average, but not socially retarded (usually) I do wonder what life would be like if ignorance was bliss though.
I think C is the best option. Sure, you could be born in the middle east, which is less than ideal, but you get a chance at all of western Europe, Canada, and a bit of the US.
It does feel like a bit of a revenge fantasy. That being said, minus the stupid interrogation he gave her about the time, I love it. It's not so much that she was 15 minutes late, it's that she's not even polite enough to even just pay lip service to being sorry for being late. The fact that she showed is not what matters. Just being happy someone was willing to grace you with their presence is the behavior of someone desperate. I think her shouting and blowing up his phone is probably the least…
Because those women turn dating into an unromantic slog that feels more like a series of job interviews. Top men can just next her and date someone fun and less jaded.
Then why waste each other's time? I see women talk about going into first dates knowing it has no future all the time, and I wish they'd just save me the time and energy.
https://study.com/cimages/videopreview/videopreview-full/8o9chhe0qj.jpg No, I think you don't. You see the dark blue middle there? That's below average, average, and above average. Everything to the left is well below average.
If you're treating him worse because you don't believe he has as much RMV/SMV as your exes, or you punish him because of things your exes did to you, then it's a totally fair thing to get upset about. He should just dump you if he's unhappy though.
No fucking shit he's not a generally attractive person lol. That doesn't mean he's well below average. Even above average men are not generally attractive to women. Most women could walk into a room with 100 men and maybe find one of them attractive.
I'm guessing you consider most men below average then like the infamous OkCupid study suggests. Nothing new or surprising there, but it is something women tend to deny.
By what metric is he below average? His face is thoroughly unremarkable, but not ugly. He's probably at least average height (I think probably tall but it's hard to tell), and he's not fat.
Ah, I misread your original post. I thought you asked it name celebs who looked like you and not celebs who could be your sister. It wouldn't do the former. and nice company
I mean, you know something is up when it's rating everyone 6.5+. I have no doubt there are some attractive people here, but we can't all be a bunch of above average miserable people.
ChatGPT is very generous with it's ratings fyi. You have to ask it to be more honest a couple times before it'll give you answers that are more rooted in reality.
Pick whatever classic trait you particularly don't like in men: shortness, baldness, obesity, whatever. Now imagine fucking that guy because he was confident and smelled good. Oh, you still don't want to? I'm shocked. I never denied looksmaxxing is an option. It all depends on how much money you have and how much pain you're willing to endure.
There is no solution. It's just life. I know some or maybe even most men feel the way you do about any sex being better than no sex, but I'm fundamentally not wired that way. I'm aware relationships are about more than sex, but sex is what separates a romantic relationship from a platonic one. I've never met a woman who wants to be in a relationship with a guy who doesn't desire her, so I don't see how any relationship under those circumstances would last anyways. Even if I could fake it, I'm no…
The same revulsion women experience when imagining fucking a man they find unattractive is present in everyone on some level based on how a person looks. We definitely don't want to fuck inferior genes, but we also don't want to be associated with them at all, either.
Let me put it this way: If you don't like their face, you're not gonna care about the rest of that shit. No amount of standing up straight, having confident mannerisms, or smelling good will make you want to fuck a person whose face you don't like.
You don't? I have memories going back to when 1-2 years old. Not a lot of them, mostly major events like vacations, being really sick, etc. I have tons of memories from when I reached ~4 onward.
This is probably accurate for a lot of men. My biggest problem is my looksmatch is unattractive to me, and ultimately, my looksmatch isn't really sexually attracted to me either. Someone simply willing to be with me is far from good enough.
That's a shame. Him disappearing because he ended up in a shallow grave somewhere due to his criminal activities would really take the story up a notch.
Why would men care about what other men do? Like, I only care what women like because I'm only interested in women. What men like doesn't really impact me at all.
All relationships are transactional on some level, sure, but they're not all purely transactional. Generally people want a partner who will still love them if they go broke, or they get sick, or whatever. There quite literally is a shortage of hot guys, let alone hot guys with money lol. Most of them don't need to deal with her baggage. I think looks and sex are the foundation of a good relationship. The rest of the house is built on everything else. If there's no foundation your house is gonna …
Most people can party for a while and not have it drive them 180 degrees in the other direction to being a born again Christian. Clearly something bad happened and she went for the first guy who offered stability and a thick wallet. I agree she could do better, and she probably will eventually, but for now this guy is giving her what she wants. That doesn't mean he is what she wants. It doesn't count because all relationships like this come with a catch, what it is doesn't really matter.
She's a "reformed" whore and he's beta bux. In one video he's wearing an AP Royal Oak, a mid 5-figure watch. In another video it's made clear he pays for everything. I did the research so the rest of you don't have to.
I think a lot guys either aren't interested in small talk at all, or got burned out on having the same conversations over and over again that inevitably go nowhere.
You agree with not getting in the mud, but you justify the attitudes of the people your surrounded by to be shitty to men in general? You're talking to mostly western men here who–even if they do have a negative opinion about gay men–are way too worried about their own problems to even think about bashing them. i mean a normie woman might think of a man as less because she's not into him but she won't outright attack him or say it. Are you blind? Women express their contempt for men they feel ar…
Whatever, I don't really care. You waiting until marriage doesn't really make you blue pilled, which I also don't really care about litigating that much.
Is that the only thing that makes you "tradlite?" I hear "tradlite" and I think of someone who wants to reap all the rewards of a trad lifestyle while providing none of the rewards. Regardless, I think waiting to have sex is absolutely transactional. You have a carrot, and you're using it to get what you want.
A lot of sugar babies claim to not fuck. Maybe that's true, maybe it isn't, Idk. In any case, I don't think that's blue pill. Blue pill seems to be all about true love and all that happy horseshit. The lifestyle you're describing is very transactional
Zelenskyy's wife said women bear the brunt of war. She makes it very hard not to root for Russia. I certainly don't want my American tax dollars going towards supporting her.
Even if we assume you're right in that women came up with LVM as a response to men calling some women LVW, since when do two wrongs make a right? You can't get down in the mud with someone and claim the moral high ground. Is your incessant doomposting supposed reflect a person living an average/blue pilled life?
Who says they are swiping on those men? Even if they are, it's because it's they've failed to match with men they actually do like, and they're desperate.
What the fuck does blue pill even mean anymore? I guarantee you can't coherently define it. LVM is a term women created to descibe men. Any man who refers to himself as such is doing so based on the parameters women use to describe men they don't want. You're a lot of things, but you're not so dumb that you're not acutely aware of this.
You need to go back and re-read what I said because I was talking about a ring that's too small, not one that's too big. In any case, what looks good looks good. A woman's sized watch on a man's sized wrist doesn't look good.
You're probably going to lose a friend whether they were always just trying to worm their way into your pants, or they started off with platonic intentions and caught feelings. If they're the former, you shouldn't want them as a friend anyways, and if they're the latter, you should care enough about to know it's best they aren't around you anymore. You're not wrong as long you don't perpetuate the myth personality can make a man attractive to you.
Was going through some old junk, and came across a watch an ex bought me that way too small. This thing has to be 34mm at most, and I wear a ~40mm. I knew it was way too small at the time, but I didn't want to hurt her feelings. Q4W: You buy your partner a watch, but it's too small for his taste. How should he navigate that?
Why do women always say their taste in men varies wildly from their peers, but also think the guy they're with is a hot commodity that has tons of options? Are women all chasing the same men, or is it some kind of cognitive dissonance?
In your experience, are these men just looking for sex, or are they looking for a romantic relationship and you're just interpreting their actions in the most sinister way possible?
Refreshing to see a man admit that at the end of the day, men WANT to objectified Probably because it's much easier as a man to find women who will appreciate you for who are you are (platonically) than it is women who will objectify you. For women, it's the opposite. Men and women want both. Women don't complain about being objectified by men they find hot, they only complain about men in general doing so.
Do you believe people always know they're interested in someone romantically pretty much immediately? When a woman confesses her romantic feelings for a male friend, does that mean they never valued the friendship and were faking it the whole time?
but those things haven't resulted in lower rates of coupling Source? Marriage rate and birth rate are all way down in the US. Sexlessness, at least among men under 30, is also way up over the last 15 years last I've heard.
Or, more likely, we live in an AI drone enforced police state that makes overthrowing the ruling elite impossible. And trust me, sex isn't gonna be something you're particularly worried about anymore.
Everyone in a relationship is "settling" to some degree. Mr./Mrs. Perfect ain't walking through that door because perfect doesn't exist. Dick size (within reason) is one of the things most women are most willing to compromise on, so why are you so worried about it?
Most people aren't thinking that far ahead. Men are also drawn to this stuff precisely because they're not competing in the first place. Why would other men feel the need to drive them away?
Or they prefer bigger dicks (which most in this thread are admitting), but dick size just isn't high on most of their priority lists. If you otherwise like a woman, and you prefer big tits, are you going to reject her because she B cups instead of DDs? Probably not. It's essentially the same when it comes to dick size for women. There might be women out there who will sleep with a dude simply because he's packing a 10 inch monster, but outside of that, simply having even a 99th percentile dick i…
Be selfish. This advice is universal but it especially applies to these guys. What you want and what you're getting should be by far your main priority. A lot of these guys fall into "oneitis", getting super hung up on one girl, and people pleasing. This is basically what it boils down to. Some guys will have to compromise, or accept being alone your whole life.
Not even on special occasions for me. I dated my ex for nearly three years, and if I said my dick was physically in her mouth on ten occasions, I'm probably overestimating it. Ultimately I stayed with her as long as I did because I knew she was the best I could hope for, and over the last decade that's proven to be true.
