Posted by DonnaLibraI honestly thought it was just the younger woman making all the moves, and I’m not interested in the younger guys they are chasing but it looks like it doesn’t have an age! I know technology is making it so much easier and accessible for sexting and cheating (if you’re that way) but the reality is hitting me now on how different the dating world is. My bubbles been burst.. think I’ll be single for the rest of my life lol or I’ll have to join em?!?!??
Yeah from what I'm seeing men no longer have to do much because women are chasing them so hard. I think there has been a shift to more than just culture these days.
Posted by GobbyI guess no ones chasing you gobby? 😂
Oh, do fuck off! You wanted equality, you got it.
Cry me a frigging river of crocodile tears...
Posted by SoulGuess I’ll just join them then! Thinking about it, it’s better that way anywho. At least it’ll be my selection and I won’t have to deal with trying to let someone down without offending. I always feel bad saying not interested and I can handle rejection, it only stings for a bit.
Yea. Now its your turn to deal with looking weird making the first move. Have fun dealing with a fair share of rejection along with waisted time, and waisted money on dates and gifts just to figure out they were pretty worthless from the start.
Tbh I was never the type of guy to make a move. 100% of my relationships were all with women who make it obvious I could make moves to begin with. Thats another thing. God forbid a man tell a woman she is beautiful and he would like to get to know her better. That's a good way to get accused for being a rapist. Not all woman are like that, but a handful. That handful though is enough to make most men say "Yea no thanks." Then she turns around and makes a fans only. The second you learn most women hate most women was the first red flag imo.

Has it come to this? Women having to make the first move? Recently because of this corona bs, I’ve had to go on dating sites and the guys don’t ever IMO make the first move ( maybe it’s just me...) never had any problems in RL then talking to a mate the other day, I asked how he and his now ex got together and he said, they went out on a date and she didn’t leave him alone after that. She chased him down and then got pregnant...! Wtf? 😂 he’s been single for a few years again so maybe the ladies aren’t as aggressive.
Is this the way it is these days? It takes away from my womanhood having to make the first move all the time!

Not all men are lazy and wait for women to come to them. Some were taught by their fathers or father figures the ways of manhood and courtship. Some didn’t have any father figures and but still figured it out. The others, well, the laziness stuck with them. The land of lazy is too comfortable to get out of.
Lazy courtship, Usually that is a sign that more laziness exists in their world. Lazy at work. Lazy cleaners of their homes. Lazy hygiene. Lazy appearance.
It’s all related.
You can’t spot the lazy ones a mile away

Equal is Equal.
Women fought for an equal voice... Well, surprise! It's not a man's job to make the first move, but rather the first moves should be distributed evenly, lol.
Perhaps this is destiny's way of letting you know that it is time that you to catch up on all of the first moves you never had to make.

It doesn't matter who makes the first move. What matters is what happens after someone has made that first move.
And no, I don't believe women should chase men. If men are interested or available, their higher level of testosterone should make them go after what they want. Chase only if you want to end up with a pussey!
There are loads of women that will act like they're not interested and then wonder why the guy has stopped giving chase.
No means no, correct?
If her act after the man's initial approach signals lack of interest, then he should cease and desist. No?
Then there are the men who consistently pursue a woman who is genuinely not interested and then it's a rant about how all men are animals/pigs/yaddayadda.
Can't have it both ways.
I don't mind approaching on a sexual basis; if it's a no, I'm onto the next one. But, wading the double-standard stated above, for anything more serious, is not worth the time. I'm not looking to partner up with a woman who's stuck in high school mode. I won't waste my time approaching and then have to determine if her decline was legit or a first step in some dumbass back and forth.click to expand

"No means no, correct?"
"No" is often not a personal rejection, but a rejection of the way you approach someone. Going for an above average attractive, 20 something, is not going to work most of the time. She gets hit on so much, that saying "no" to a stranger is a defense mechanism, that she needs to overcome first. Have some patience. Try again another time, after changing tactics. Establishing a connection (eye contact, smile) and focusing on her for many minutes before approaching may help, at least to see if she enjoys your attention.

Maybe we have different definitions for "pussy" and "chasing".
A pussy is the default genitalia formed in the absence of testosterone. Testosterone is the hormone of aggression, competitiveness, dominance, and self esteem, among other roles.
Chasing is persistently going after someone who doesn't want to be caught.

"No" is often not a personal rejection, but a rejection of the way you approach someone. Going for an above average attractive, 20 something, is not going to work most of the time. She gets hit on so much, that saying "no" to a stranger is a defense mechanism, that she needs to overcome first. Have some patience. Try again another time, after changing tactics. Establishing a connection (eye contact, smile) and focusing on her for many minutes before approaching may help, at least to see if she enjoys your attention. Let her "choose" you, before you approach her.

You wouldn't want them to think you're a creeper anyting. 🤭
Lmao 😂, well put.
Just play a one man masquerade until she takes the bait. Then some people wonder how they wind up tied up with "Toxic" characters
No, it's just men who wonder why they get rejected![]()
Btw, nobody said to play anything. Be yourself...I was just suggesting which variante of yourself would be less likely to get the boot when accosting a female.
Sure, playing variants for a lay ain't so bad, but again, for anything more solid, that's an absolutely toxic way of operating. If you're looking to draw a long term partner, applying different facades to partner up is groundwork for a shitty relation.click to expand

It doesn't matter who makes the first move. What matters is what happens after someone has made that first move.
And no, I don't believe women should chase men. If men are interested or available, their higher level of testosterone should make them go after what they want. Chase only if you want to end up with a pussey!
There are loads of women that will act like they're not interested and then wonder why the guy has stopped giving chase.
No means no, correct?
If her act after the man's initial approach signals lack of interest, then he should cease and desist. No?
Then there are the men who consistently pursue a woman who is genuinely not interested and then it's a rant about how all men are animals/pigs/yaddayadda.
Can't have it both ways.
I don't mind approaching on a sexual basis; if it's a no, I'm onto the next one. But, wading the double-standard stated above, for anything more serious, is not worth the time. I'm not looking to partner up with a woman who's stuck in high school mode. I won't waste my time approaching and then have to determine if her decline was legit or a first step in some dumbass back and forth.

Facade, my ass! Look at her, repeatedly, till you feel like smiling. Or till you meet her eyes, and she smiles at you.
If you don't feel like looking at her or smiling, even nervously or internally, and you don't even feel like returning her smile, then......Dude, why are approaching her for....?
Because I'm not Forrest Gump. I feel fascination or interest without having to look like a lovestruck Jackass to put that message across. There's some significant amount of fantasy saturating your perception here.
Also, you're really laying it on thick and very simplistic to think that every woman (interested or not) will magically respond to someone pretty much leering at her.click to expand

Women have always been the instigator
We had different social cues throughout history to say ‘i want you, come get me’
I will make the first move. One, because I pick what I want vs whatever creeper chases. Two, I like to chase a lil.
Its not my job to maintain momentum, but I’ll get the ball rolling.

Agreed, but now it seems like you instigate and keep up the momentum.
I use to think I’d die alone too before making all or most of the moves but I’m starting to evolve my thinking 🤔 so far things are going in the direction I want and at a good pace.click to expand

Has it come to this? Women having to make the first move? Recently because of this corona bs, I’ve had to go on dating sites and the guys don’t ever IMO make the first move ( maybe it’s just me...) never had any problems in RL then talking to a mate the other day, I asked how he and his now ex got together and he said, they went out on a date and she didn’t leave him alone after that. She chased him down and then got pregnant...! Wtf? 😂 he’s been single for a few years again so maybe the ladies aren’t as aggressive.
Is this the way it is these days? It takes away from my womanhood having to make the first move all the time!
That’s SO funny! Woman had a mission and had accomplished it! I am wondering if child is his...click to expand
