Hello, I (22M) have received more than two and more than three times the usual message from girls that dont want anything with you but want to reject you softly, the “You are a nice guy but Im not looking for anything at the moment”.

Maybe sometimes this might be true, but we all now the real meaning: romantic/sexual rejection.

Friends (male and women) have always told me that i could get more girls than what i do based on my physique and personality (i go to the gym, have always done sports, i have studies, kind of funny,…), but however i struggle a lot. Some of them directly say to me that i should be more direct, less “respectful”, that i always tend to create basic conversations without any flirting or escalation. I must admmit this might be true because i recognize this problem in my conversations, i always try to make the girl comfortable so i end up having no flirting or anything else. Any advice to improve? Lose fear of rejection? Being more direct? Less only comfortable talk? This has happened to me even in cases that i have met someone trough mutuals and i knew at the beggining there was interest
