This was inspired by another recent post on this sub by a guy asking why this is the case.

Some might think its about not looking needy but that isn't the full story behind why ignoring women is so appealing to them.

What's actually going on is - women are taking men for granted more and more.

Its partly because of how they talk to each other, constantly telling each other they're amazing and that any man would be lucky to be with them simply because they exist.

There's also the fact that in 2024 it's extremely easy to get unlimited access to simps.

Somewhat attractive girl posts something skimpy on Instagram, gets simped on.

Somewhat attractive girl has an OF, gets simped on.

Somewhat attractive girl posts something on reddit, whether its NSFW or not, gets simped on.

Somewhat attractive girl, even when they're fully covered up (like Pokimane), streams on Twitch, gets simped on.

Girl joins an online game, where her face or body isn't even visible, gets simped on!

🤦‍♂️

Oh and there's also this: Girl on a dating app = hundreds of matches.

And the thing is, none of us, man or woman values anything or anyone that we perceive as a piece of cake.

We value the things that require our effort. And the more effort we put into something, the more we value it.

This is why when you try a video game or a sport, if its too easy, you get bored of it really quick.

And since things are leaning by default towards making women believe men are a piece of cake, you would need to do extreme things like ignoring them to make them realize that they need to work to win you over.

And you can't just ignore her and then immediately do a 180° once she's showing you a lot of interest, you need to follow through and actually make her do work.

This idea that the man has to do all the work when it comes to dating is just an extremely outdated lesson that is still widely being taught in society.

That was relevant during the times when women didn't take men for granted, it isn't anymore.

Doing most of the work is also wrongly equated with taking the lead.

A leader doesn't necessarily put in the most work.

You tell me who works harder, the military during a war or the president who makes the executive decisions while he's tucked away safe and cozy.

You don't even have to look that far. You can just compare a boss to employees.

Even during sex when a man is being dominant and telling the woman to get on her knees and blow him like a good little slut, all he's doing is standing there with his dick in the air while she puts in most of the work.

Putting in work ≠ taking the lead.

If you want to have stable interactions with women, as in interactions where things don't come crashing down just because of one tiny BS thing, then make them work for you.

You don't have to be extremely aloof with all women, as long as you're not just letting them sit on their ass while you're trying to make everything happen, you'll have better success in dating.

But....if you come across a woman that responds really well to you ignoring her and you're interested in her, just do this:

Ignore her.

When she shows interest, give her breadcrumbs, just enough for her to think there's hope.

If she's trying to get your attention, give it to her for a second and then challenge her.

For example, say she's asking you what you think of her outfit, just look at her, tell her it's alright, and then ask her if she's got anything better.

Or if you don't wanna be too shallow you can ask her instead, "Is that all you care about?"

If she asks, " What do you mean?" don't explain and talk about all the meaningful things in life, just straight up command, "Show me something with more substance."

If you wanna go out with her, don't say, "Hey wanna go to X?" just say, "I'm gonna go to X tomorrow. Come if you like" and make it something you really wanna go to. Prioritise your enjoyment over her's. If you wanna go to a sports bar, go to a sports bar.

And don't be any more specific than the example above. Let her worry about asking you follow up questions like what time you're going.

While on the "date" let her talk 90% of the time.

If you wanna pull, just say, "Ok. Let's go." If she asks where, ignore the question and keep moving. If she insists on asking just say, "You don't have to come with me if you don't like."

A girl that likes guys that ignore her will follow you like a puppy dog when you say something like that.

If you think all of this is messed up then just hold out for the women who appreciate having proper conversations with you.

Even if it happens to be fewer than the ones who like to be ignored, at least to you, they will be higher quality women.
