Men usually give other men advice on what red flags to avoid when dealing with women.
From a woman's POV, what red flags should men be vigilant and avoid if all possible?
Platonic and/or Intimate.
1) I was told to avoid women who put on makeup like clowns. (I think it had something to do with either insecurity or like you never get to see what they really look like, not sure tbh.)
I was so surprised at the virgo woman who is actually a virgo man.....the one who was posting about the Taurus and the Aquarius man she/he was dating.....
I saw her before and after photo!!!
I thought WOW...I ....thought she was a woman.click to expand

I wanted to comment cause I saw it earlier and was soooo shocked!!!
I would have never guessed.
most men wouldn't huh?
Posted by SunsetvirgoThe only reason I invited my friends is because she was throwing the friend vibe out there. I originally asked her out on a "date", but she said she was recently out of a relationship and moved slowly. I told her that was fine and that I wasn't looking to lock her into a relationship.
So I thought I should put in my two cents again I suppose
You had said you invited her out with your friends... your friends :/
See if I wanted to get to know someone, I wouldn't like the friends there. Only because I need to know how to act around YOU and if your friends are around it'll be more difficult and I'll have an even larger wall up. I like narrowing it down to one and having conversations one on one. It allows me to figure you out better.
Also, what is your intention with her? Do you just want to get to know her platonically? If so, you're doing it right. If someone asked me out with friends (and we weren't dating or I didn't know this person had feelings for me), I would be like "oh I'm one of his friends" or "oh this is just hanging out, not a date cool".
When she came over though she said stuff like, "I'm going to be your wing woman tonight and find you a nice girl" and "This isn't a date". Then on the same night she'd bite her lip (couldn't tell if that was attraction or just her nervous energy. I noticed she bites her lip in other situations too) and share stuff with me that she supposedly has never told another human being (mind you this was all dispersed over the course of the night).
Then the next weekend I get a text from her at 5am, when I respond back the next day I hear nothing. So I invited her out again, which we moved the plans to he following weekend. At that point I figured she's just being friendly so I invited friends over too. So she came over, we got dinner, and then joined up with a group of two more of my friends (a guy and a girl she's met before). Then the next day she sent me a thank you text saying that she had fun with all of us. I generally only get thank you texts after dates, so I figured she was just being nice.
So I invited her out to a friend's get together (another person she's met), but she cancelled because he got off of work late and lives far. She also seemed nervous about showing up late to a house where she didn't know everyone (she's mentioned she's an introvert before). She said we should reschedule and do dinner. So I told her no worries, and to let me know when she's free.
So in my mind I thought, well if we're "just friends" then I'll just invite her to friendly events. This is why I'm not a fan of the "friend" route. I like being very direct and cutting straight to the point. Generally I'm more aggressive, but I'm a bit thrown off by how she and I met as well.

Posted by AdreamuponwakingPosted by WonderWoman14September of last year.Posted by AdreamuponwakingPosted by WonderWoman14That's what I would think ...but literally about two weeks ago she gave me this whole talk about boundaries and why they are important...
If I text a guy at 3am telling him how soft my sheets were it's the biggest green light I could give. I don't flirt like that with my friendzone guys.
and that she doesn't pretty much want to date me because she wouldn't want to lose me as a friend if things didn't work out.
Even though...again she's physically attracted to me and was from the very beginning.
How long have you been friends for?click to expand
She'll cave. Without sounding rude but I thought you were going to say years and years. She's trying to convince herself she only wants a friendship but texting you that at 3 am proves otherwise.
@DivineWine9 Why the hidden posts? I was going to respond to you.
I speak? My voice is apparently very seductive? i dunno about that.
I just be me, real and authentic, seems to work fairly well.

Posted by ChrisIsKodakYeah I'm on track, I just need to buckle down and crank out a solid weekly regimen.Posted by ChuckcemNice, well atleast its not that far off.Posted by ChrisIsKodakCurrent stage: Cutting it seems, getting that summer body ready...
Hey guys, I figure I make this thread since there are quite of few people here who actually lift as a consistent activity.
I figure we post goals, recovery, tips, stories, and resources. Anything prevalent or interesting or even an update.
For me:
Current stage: Recovery from double hernia surgery
Age: 22
Current Weight: 249 Lbs: 18% bodyfat
Target Weight: 200 Lbs lean - 9-11% bodyfat
Bench: 275
Squat: 305
Deadlift: 355
If you aren't cool posting pics, that's cool, I think I'll probably post mine if it's relevant.
Current Dietary style : Keto/Carb-backloading - (60% Fat, 30% protein, 10% carb)
Age: 30-31
Current Weight: 179 Lbs (need to calculate current body fat)
Target Weight: Eh, 170-175 Lbs lean - 12-15% bodyfat
Bench: 265
Squat: 335
Deadlift: 415
My gym schedule has been off with work unfortunately. This whole slimming down thing always makes me sad because my lifts stagnate. Oh well, just have to take the ego out of my lifts.
Current Dietary style : IF all of the way. Intermittent Fasting is something I'd recommend to most people.
You can get that in 2-3 months easyclick to expand
Humor and style . I have no ability to flirt.
