| 6 | Does making the first move on a guy or asking him out (not for sex) a pickme move?Flip the roles. If a strange man you’ve never talked to before, and who you didn’t know of prior, asked you out on IG, would you accept? As for deleting the message or not, that’s a question asked about saving face. Only you can figure out what you should do with the message you sent. (Hint: don’t apologize or make excuses to him for sending it regardless of what you choose to do). | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/05/20 05:54 PM |
| 20 | Does making the first move on a guy or asking him out (not for sex) a pickme move?Yes. Making the first move is by default chasing. Men are to chase you, so that means they make the first move. If he doesn’t make the first move then he either isn’t interested or is too insecure to approach. You don’t want none of that. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/05/20 05:33 PM |
| 32 | I have been seeing a surge of these kinds of tweets lately— I love it. We’re doing something right ladies 😜Girl. I like you. Props to all of this. You’re doing the Lord’s work. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 13/05/20 05:14 PM |
| 40 | How mods sleep knowing FDS is responsible for some low life cheating scrote getting blocked somewhereGirl! It is so refreshing to block-delete without the trauma. Having FDS to read and learn boundary setting, and then discuss and reenforce what we learn has been invaluable. I’m so happy to read your story to see that this is all working for someone else. Keep up the good work! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/05/20 11:33 PM |
| 8 | Have you ever felt like you’re “too much” or been told you’re “too much” by any man?I read this on here, “you will never be too much for someone who can’t get enough of you.” I absolutely love it! Be you, and be all of you. You don’t want the men or friends that think you’re “too much”. Goldilocks that shit until you find the fit that is just right. 💖 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 16/04/20 09:39 PM |
| 17 | LVM in one tweetOh oh oh! These are the guys who are fluent in sarcasm! They suck! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 05/04/20 02:47 AM |
| 19 | Strip club dilemmaMy biggest question about all of this is why is keeping friendships with people who go to strip clubs? Your friends and relationship are an extension of you. So if he sees no issue with other people going to strip clubs the he himself has no issue with strip clubs. He sees no issue with others objectifying women, therefore he sees no issue in objectifying women. Furthermore, if you are already worried about what his friends will think about you then you don’t like his friends. If you are already… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 12/03/20 08:35 PM |
| 13 | Clear Sign Of A NarcissistYes! If I find myself thinking “cool...” three times I bounce. Like, why are we talking if you aren’t interested in what I have to say. Or! Why are we talking if you think ANYONE cares about your regular teeth cleaning schedule. Once again, “cool. great job on the basic hygiene. 😒” | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/03/20 08:42 PM |
| 51 | Amazing answer to the mythe of «men don’t care about your accomplishments»My dad has done this my entire life. Big surprise, I’ve dated many men who did the same thing. It’s definitely a way men turn women into a thing that improves their value while simultaneously dismissing the value inherent in us as people. Pathetic. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 09/03/20 03:02 AM |
| 73 | Typical 1 3/4 hours of on-line datingBlerg. It’s not just the brazenness of his initial message, but he’s sending it mid-afternoon! Why is he not working? Why is he pestering a woman who is probably working? Why are his fee-fees hurt after a half hour of no response during work hours? I just... I just can’t. Wrap his ass in bubble wrap, stick him in a box marked fragile, and return to sender! Refund please! | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 07/03/20 04:48 AM |
| 19 | Men who compliment couplesI absolutely agree with this! But I also think it can be more insidious. TL;DR at bottom. I’ve walked downtown with my gfs, bfs, and alone. Typically the homeless people leave me alone-they don’t even ask for change. I went on a date with this one guy. Ugh. Dentist. Indian with a doting momma (still did his laundry). All of his OLD photos taken at work by his female staff/female care takers. Nerdy but handsome - kinda didn’t know what to do with himself around me. Well, I got catcalled, commente… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 01/03/20 12:53 AM |
| 43 | FDS Shower Thought: Always Feeling Like You Don't Belong? Congratulations, You're An Enigma, Work It.Goddess! I love this place! I’m not one box. I’m not “your” idea. I’m me. Unapologetic. I wear my lipstick. I wear my winged liner. I discuss art, science, analyze your data, make my curtains, and knit my blankets, scarves, and sweaters. I will swing dance and waltz circles around you. Maintained a car for 17 yrs. Currently maintaining MY house built in the 1920s. I will crack a white claw and request a traditional daiquiri (love that lime!). At 14 I was described by a friend’s mother as looking… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 28/02/20 02:06 AM |
| 8 | ‘I Want a Wife,’ the Timeless ’70s Feminist ManifestoIt’s so interesting to think about it. I now work in a male dominated industry (software sales) and I find myself often commenting how I want a wife when hearing of my colleagues’ weekends. Wives are freaking AWESOME! However, when I was in a female dominate industry (healthcare administration), and along with my friends, I never once have uttered “I want a husband” in the same manner. The closest I have come is “your husband is really nice/handy”. But even then I didn’t “want” a husband, I was … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/02/20 03:41 AM |
| 3 | Pick me men in music?Ugh! John Mayer’s “New Light” chaps my ass! So whiney, so pathetic, sooooo pick me! Begging and pleading a woman to give him “one night” and he’ll change her mind. Like, what’s he he going to do to make him go from her bat phone to her real phone. Dude, you being in the phone on the drawer at home is because you’re with the rest of her sex toys. And yea, it totally matters what her friends think about her taking you out - it would be weird as hell for her to bring her vibrator out for a drink! I… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/02/20 02:45 PM |
| 32 | I realized that giving a man ANY emotional support is infinitely more valuable than the money he spends on youIt often starts with love bombing. It shows an immaturity in their ability to regulate emotions. If I don’t know your last name, have your email, or are friends with you on Facebook, then how on earth does a text from me send you over the moon? How little does a dude that love bombs have going on? And why is his affection so damned cheap? | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 16/02/20 02:24 PM |
| 3 | Help quick! He said friday on a 2 min phone call he would ring me tonight. Spoke to me briefly last night on text about boring shit, then msgd me this just now. Its like hes trying to get me to ask him to ring me rather than just ringing me. Or am i overthinking things? What should i say?Nope. I’m going to disagree. There is basic phone etiquette, like being too early or late to call or being mindful of plans you may have discussed with him that would keep you from a call. He needs to take the initiative and call, esp if he already said he would. You then decide if it’s a good time for you to pick up or not. If it’s not, you can plan for a better time via text. If he’s a HVM this won’t be a rejection and will be a none issue. If he’s so fragile that he needs conformation that he… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 10/02/20 08:30 PM |
| 23 | FDS works and I’m bummedFor a large majority of my life my family, friends, coworkers, bosses, even strangers on the street, have commented how I’m outspoken, independent, brassy, and very confident. And there were always said with an undertone that it’s not how women should act. Mix into all of that with the fact that I present very feminine- I love my bold lipstick and winged liner, statement jewelry, and dresses - and I’m handier and more mechanically inclined then most men I know. Folks in my life have told me that… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/01/20 12:40 PM |
| 55 | FDS works and I’m bummedFDS FAQ and Timelines That’s the link. Look under the timelines section and you’ll see it. FDS helped me respect myself. My self respect is the deterrent that kept this bout of dating from becoming something more dramatic, unnecessary, and wasteful. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/01/20 04:11 AM |
| 42 | FDS works and I’m bummedAbsolutely agree! I tried my best to keep dating. To keep my eye out for men who fit my profile. My radar got jammed. I’m new to the strategy and I’ve had A LOT of moments of growth through all of this. I am so not used to being a person in relationships. I’ve been a thing for so long. I journaled a great deal. I kept notes of dates, both actions and feelings. I continuously reminded myself that it was too early for Feels. We weren’t Fb friends, I didn’t even have his email. I think a lot of my … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/01/20 03:55 AM |
| 130 | FDS works and I’m bummedSorry for the wall... I had a few realizations part way through and decided to leave them in... He said that he really respected me, liked my spunk and really wanted to get to a point where he didn’t doubt if the relationship was the right fit. He said that we were at a point of making longer terms plans and it just didn’t feel right to be making them with me. It was very bizarre feeling to watch this man, who I had started to have big “F” Feelings for, cry about how it wasn’t right even though … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 21/01/20 03:29 AM |
| 3 | Sex Attraction WaningBah! I have the same experience. Months 1-3 I’m so in love and am super attracted and can’t keep my hands to myself. Month 4-6 I start seeing his true colors and my libido starts to drop. Month 7-9 I start to plan my exit of the relationship. I’m following the FDS guidelines. I’ve been seeing a man for a month now but still looking through apps and actively hunting. This man is checking all of the right boxes while adding a few new boxes that will need to be checked should this not work out. I’v… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 10/01/20 08:14 PM |
