    What is /htgwg/?

    How to Get Women General is by anons, for anons, about the modern dating landscape. So bring all of your questions about dating here. Some anons on this site actually get partners and laid, and some of them even want to help. If you're trying to meet and date people, then this is the place to ask questions, seek advice, and share experiences. We know how hard it can be. We got you bro.

    >What is /htgwg/ not?

    These threads are NOT for whining, moping, incels, femlcels, MGTOW, hopelessness, pinkpillers or demoralization. We're all aware that meeting and dating people is hard today, and even harder for some, but /htdg/ is for trying to overcome the challenges. IGNORE the posters who complain, give up, or insist there's nothing they can do. This site has other boards and threads that they can pollute. BE SMART: Spot the bait, don't reply, and DON'T WASTE TIME ARGUING WITH THEM!

    >How to ask for advice

    Context is important: be more specific than "I got ghosted, why?" We can't help if we don't know the situation, so try to provide as much (useful) info as possible ("I was at the bar, someone was checking me out..."). What's your relationship with them? How long have you known them? Any conversation screenshots? Etc... Don't forget to ask an actual question.

    >How to Get Women
    1. Live in a place with women.
    2. Mog the local men.

    That's it. None of this PUA garbage helped anyone besides the dating coaches and their wallets.

    If you're a manlet, move to a SEA shithole where you will mog everyone there.

    I have joined a dance class and I met a girl I pretty much like. When we've coupled together we keep eye contact and have quite a good vibe.

    After the classes we sometimes hit the drinks with a couple of other friends and we joke a lot. The problem is we're never alone.

    I don't wanna invite her out and if she refuses having to continue taking dance classes because of the weirdness. But I really think we might be clicking together.

    No idea what to do. Any tips?
    >>
    >>35025422
    bee yourself. always comes down to that at the end.
    in the meantime you have a built in safe entry point, retard. ask her to meet up an hour early to work on some steps youre struggling with
    >>
    >>35025422
    why would it be weird to continue taking dance classes because she declined a date? that is a retarded take. are you only taking this dance class so that you can date this specific girl? it's only weird in your head. girls are usually flattered when invited to a date, even if they decline because they are already dating someone or are not interested in you romantically. also why do you feel the need to be alone with her to bring the conversation further? you can talk one on one with her even in a group. show interest in her, her life, her past, etc. then invite her for a drink at another time. stop overcomplicating things
    >>
    >>35025286
    you don't even have to mog but yes being around women is pretty much a guarantee to get one
    >>
    Been dating a woman for a month and I asked her to be my girlfriend yesterday and she accepted. She's my first girlfriend and I'm 34 years old.
    The best thing about having a girlfriend is the steady supply of sex IMO.

    Basically I went from incel/redpill idiot to gf. AMA.

    Are your chances with women in their mid-20s probably over if you're bald and in your mid-30s no matter how much you self-improve?
    >>
    >>35025286
    >2. Mog the local men.
    This is easier than it sounds. Most dudes are anxious and entitled.
    Just by being cool, treating women with respect and making your intentions clear you already mog 90% of men.
    >>
    >>35025785
    Some women hate bald guys. Some women don't care or even like bald guys. Age isn't as relevant as you think in this case. Stop thinking in retarded absolutes.

    >see tomboy with berserk tattoo at run club, doesnt talk to anyone, always at the edge of the group, shows up right before we start and leaves almost immediately after
    We talked a bit last week and she seemed excited to know i would be there this week, but she just did the same not talk to anyone and leave after a few minutes again. I did have a short convo with her during the run but we were doing different routes so we didnt stay together. I thought maybe when she was done we would talk, idk why i pussied out of just saying something myself, maybe i didnt want to be too tryhard always coming up to her. I walked by at one point but she didnt say anything. What am i doing wrong? How do you deal with shy women?
    >>
    Do I get back on dating apps? I'm trying to go out and be more sociable, but I feel like I'm leaving opportunities on the table. I havent used them in a few months because I saw my ex who kinda cheated on me early this year and it fucked me up again.

    I also need good pictures but don't know what to use as an example and have no friends to take them. My current photos are all me playing music on stage which sounds sick, until you realize I had hinge for 3 months and got no likes or matches. Atp im gonna have to get my camera and tripod and do something on my own but i dont know what pictures will get me interest

    One of the most important things when dating is to stick to the idea that you simply are just a person who is trying to be decent. Don't act like you are the shit like some people here do. You are simply someone who is just trying to be a decent person.

    "hair systems" (I just call it a hairpiece) actually work. Women started flirting with me after I got it.
    If you're skull bald it's also a type. The only real mistake is trying to fight the norwood reaper on his own turf.

    When you get a girl's number from an app, do you usually call her or just text her? I'm just starting to match with women now for the first time and got a number already, but i'm retarded. I've been texting but i'm wondering if I should call some of my matches eventually for the first contact off the app.

    >>35025795
    This is some of the best advice in this thread and it’s ignored. Making your intention clear immediately sets you above most men. You have to make it immediately clear that this is sexual. This is easier said than done for many men. Many think just by approaching that is enough but it’s not, you have to give “I want to fuck you” energy WHILE also not appearing desperate, playing it cool as you said.
    Too much shame around expressing your sexuality. I want to fuck you but I don’t need you, communicates you are not desperate and have options. But nonetheless you will fuck her. Can’t be doing weak ass approaches IRL or online, you have to show you’re cool and not desperate while showing you’re sexual but able to keep things fun/non-sexual at the same time (don’t look like a fucking gooner). Very few guys are actually doing this and the ones that are have unlimited girls basically.

    >there's a girl in the group I asked out but she said no
    >she's so nice that I'm finding it impossible to know where she's actually at with me.
    >started acting like she's made of glass because other than the actual rejection (which was feather light) she's never said a negative word to me.
    >but actions speak louder than words and she also never seeks me out, which makes me schizo that it's an act for some reason
    It's an extremely weird spot to be in. Is there a way to read her mind a little more accurately?
    >>
    >>35026752
    She said no, and never seeks you out, that should be enough.
    I was told no once years ago and then she manufactured bridges nonstop towards me, it was a functional no at the time because she wasn't ready, not because she wanted to.

    This particular girl is just worried about your feelings and concept of her, not really interested.
    >>
    >>35026761
    >She said no, and never seeks you out, that should be enough.
    I understand that loud and clear, I'm more trying to figure out how genuine her feelings of friendship are. Probably genuine but I'm getting schizo like I said.
    >I was told no once years ago and then she manufactured bridges nonstop towards me, it was a functional no at the time because she wasn't ready, not because she wanted to.
    That's sort of how it is, can you elaborate?
    >>
    >>35026775
    >That's sort of how it is
    You literally just said she never seeks you out.
    This woman was making excuses to be with me and seeking me and opening up, the interest was always there, but not her head (at the time).


    Just ride it out and see how she behaves, you're not her therapist, if she wants a friendship it'll happen or die out, doesn't matter much which is why you always ask out asap.
    >>
    >>35026782
    Oh I misunderstood what you meant by manufactured bridges.
    >why you always ask out asap.
    I did, most of our friendship is after I asked her out...
    Which makes me realize I'm being irrational, nobody's running a months long con to protect feelings.
    Maybe I'm the one who needs a therapist.

    i dunno if women are allowed to give their two cents in here but as a very timid woman myself, you need to be persistent but not in an overwhelming or creepy way. maybe consistent is a better word, but shy women also can get overwhelmed by that. you guys only see each other at the run club so i don't think you need to worry about that yet. shy girls need more time to build up the courage to reciprocate or decide how they'll proceed, and need more signals than the average woman that you're interested. she probably was disappointed you didn't talk to her.
    >>
    >>35026993
    Sincere viewpoints from women are helpful, the reason women's dating advice for men is so looked down upon is when it's

    >>35026414
    Have you read my first post? I'm 34.
    >>
    >>35026782
    Speaking of this kind of shit, wondering if anyone got any insight here.

    I've posted about this before, I'm the retard that has been in this weird limbo with a girl.
    TL;DR
    >She chased and kept getting close to me
    >Asked her out after I caught feelings, she said she couldn't, she had a bf
    >Then immediately tries to hook me back in within the hour after the rejection, I wasn't giving her much attention nor orbiting so not like she was gonna be starving
    >Keeps trying, we eventually grow even closer, night voice messages, talking about the future, sharing hobbies and likes, she keeps trying to make time for us to be together under several excuses, tells me her birthday and that she'll be mad if I forget, introduces me to her friends, still no mention of bf before or after

    It was getting too weird for me so I was about to have a talk with her, but out of sheer luck, with her friend the topic of cheating and relationships came up and I said how I felt, cheating is disgusting, if you want someone else while in a relationship cut it out, find yourself and then figure out if you do want them.
    Within 24 hours she broke up with the boyfriend, but
    1) She hasn't told me yet
    2) She doesn't know I know, I saw it through her socials when I checked after she seemed off, but I don't really use them other than that
    Apparently it was a toxic as fuck relationship already on the brink of death, plus the guy being a massive piece of shit, but still.
    I believe she tried telling me or trying to talk about something heavy a couple days ago as she sent a plain
    >"Hey"
    At like 9 pm, but she got cold feet when I didn't see it for an hour, she has never communicated like this before so it's kinda obvious.

    So my questions are:
    >How long should I wait before doing anything here? Bad relationship or not you always mourn
    >Should I even bother?
    >>
    Is it possible to have a woman look at you like this irl? If so, what should one do? I crave this more than sex at this point.
    >>
    >>35025119
    Ok, what a customer you've seen and spoken to a few times, and how do you flirt with a coworker? Actually, I think the last question is more of a how do you flirt with women in general kind of question.
    >>
    >>35027362
    Anon you need to accept life without her. This dream girlfriend you want she gives you a hug but at home is with a kingpin who is a million times more than what you'll ever be. It's sad you won't be at his level, but you got to be happy with what you have. You can't do that now with this current crush it will be the same thing over and over and it'll lead to manic depression. Be happy being alone first before loving a woman.
    >>
    >>35027496
    I assume you meant >>35027191. I'm extremely lonely and crave the genuine interest of a woman but once I know a woman has a boyfriend I back off.

    Went out to cold approach
    i go out to approach women and they all look past me ignoring me
    it's like they're inherently trying not to get approached
    there's like 3 women every 2 hours that are not ugly and approachable and I go into a busy shopping district

    Cold approach seems dead af
    >>
    >>35027725
    Never cold approach. Women will ignore you at best and get scared of you at worst. I've tried to ask women on dates and seen true fear in their eyes before.
    >>
    You know that stereotype that women have of the 30 year old guy who they dated when they were 15, and they realise when they're much older how much of a loser he was? Well how do those guys get access to those girls and get to date them?
    >>
    >>35027857
    Because 15 year olds are retarded?
    >>
    >>35027857
    No woman will ever love you anon, 90% of women out there do not love their man, they don't know how to love anyway; they only tolerate him as long as he provides.
    Learn to be stoic and get by without their fake and subpar love therefore about 90% of women should be invisible to you. Rise up above your biological programming.
    Take care of your health anons and find distractions to help pass the time, that's all most people do anyway, the difference is they do it with somebody so time spent together flows differently. It's merely an illusion though.

    >>
    >>35028478
    Ok, go make another woman cum then. What are you, a fag?
    >>
    How do i be more kinder or gentle to women. I had bad childhood and family who were critical of everything and it still takes a lot of work being forgiving of my old meaner self and moving on from that.
    I treat both sexes the same as in I show respect and keep things surface level. At times I see other guys talk normal to me but to women more sweetly almost baby like or not as serious. It feels natural to them. I want to be like that so bad. Is it a mindset or misogyny thing? What can I change about myself

    how do you make this work in practice

    The game is over, as I am fond of saying.

    The women won. They are in control of the eugenics program and the multi-trillion-dollar pussy reward system — a highly symbolic fertility ritual. But they are in control of much more than the reproductive apparatus. They control not only the men and government of the United States of America but through the power of pussy and the susceptibility of men and government officials, fiat currency manipulation by the Witches of Fiat Currency at the Federal Reserve System, a large army of simps and "backers" (this is a technically incorrect use of the term) who are fighting to maintain control of the Frankenstein monster they created called Onlyfans (in a war I fear we are going to lose), and even the Republican form of government they created which inevitably—and I would argue by design—fosters centralized female matrilineal control and assures only a handful of "pre-selected" men must be sacralized to control an entire country, they control the entire world.

    you don't convey enough status in the settings you find yourself in

    on a dating app status is purely photo quality and looks

    at a starbucks it's the guy who knows all the workers

    An important thing to recognize about women is that they have to be tough to survive and that means they have to be mean to you. I know it is shocking when you are being nice to them and out of nowhere they start shouting at you or fighting you, and when this is random, it is them being tough so that they can survive. Sometimes women do not know how to survive without being tough, because the fear is if they aren't tough they are vulnerable and when they are vulnerable they get harmed. There is absolutely no other way around this, as this means you have to live a different life, have different circumstances, and be of different character. It is what it is anon. That's why the jock wins all the time despite being an asshole, because he knows what it is like being tough, and without that toughness there would be no survival.

    >>35030404

    Look anon. If a woman you are trying to date ain't willing to overcome her fear of nerds, she ain't worth it. Some good women out there you have to let go because they themselves can't overcome their fears. They're essentially the type of people who are too damn fixated on coming off as a good mother instead of accepting that some of the best people in this world have flaws that are not unique to them. Like if these women you like put you at the status of the 500lb conspiracy nutcase who is planning to do a terrorist attack whose entire room is full of loli fetish manga and has 3 month old bags open of doritos and a shit ton of liters of MTN dew, she ain't worth it okay? Some women are really schizophrenic and you can't let how they are schizophrenic get to you. You know what you are. You're a 3.5 GPA computer science college major who works out on the weekend at the gym and comes home to play Call of Duty with friends and then after some time wants to get a girlfriend who can share time with him so that he doesn't feel alone at home all the time. You ain't a freak, so don't worry about people who see you as one.

    How old? Tbh pay a hooker for sex a few times to chill tf out about women and realize that the non hookers are just shy and discreet about what they charge and that theyre essentially all the same. Not for everyone, desu high chance it fucks you up emotionally because your first time was meaningless, it did for me but after a few hookups with easy 304s and hookers I became legit as fuck at sex and now I have no nerves being sexual with women. If you dont wanna do that, get jacked af as fast as possible before you get any older, roids if you are desperate, so women lust for you to choke them out. Idk this is horrible advice dont listen to me, just work out and build social confidence.

    What's wrong with women? I think it's strange that they avoid eye contact with me in public even though I'm over 6 foot, muscular, and attractive (White) in an area without a lot of White men. By all metrics, "I" am the sort of guy that should be drawing everybody's attention, but I feel like a ghost when I'm walking around in public. Yeah, sure, I know. Give me the benefit of the doubt since I can't prove what I'm saying.

    Work in retail currently but am going to start looking for a job and make my degree work for me. Theres a gal there that I've been meaning to talk to but the hours never align and when they do im slammed with work. I really only gotten to chat with her at length once but we are friendly. I try to play eye tag and it feels hit or miss at times but she's all smiles in those fleeting moments when work slows down enough for us to ask about eachother. Its a true pain seeing days go by with things moving at a glacial pace and I figure the jet time I might just come clean, express my frustration with the lack of time and just ask her to go out sometime. Maybe I am reading too much into it and there's nothing there. Maybe I am wrong.
    >>
    >>35033378
    Really the issue is am having is the lack of signals or my inability to pick up on them. When we talk she seems engaged but she seems reticent to lend an eye when we are just in the relative vicinity. Like I am trying to tell her in every way but verbally that I want her and the lack of reciprocity there discourages me.

    >>35033378
    Same. I have a bunch of different crushes right now, and a few of them are at work and 2 are at the places I get food. Naturally, as that's basically the only places I go in life now.

    At work I am basically the only 30s white guy loser in a room full of zoomer latina/os. 1 of the girls is smoking hot but she MIGHT be a minor, idk. We all wear nametags that signify this, but sometimes the tags are out of date and i dont know how long she's been there. I don't know anything about her except she's the hottest girl i know and she smiles at me a lot. its great seeing her change into her uniform she lifts up her shirt so her belly's exposed for a bit.

    #2, another super hottie. she's new there. this one I have more a connection with, she beams a smile at me pretty much every time she sees me, we've spoken a bit, I've helped her with things, she lives near me, pretty sure she's young but not a minor. She might even just be using me to help her work, or maybe she actually likes me

    3, 4 are both managers, a country blonde and gothy-brunette from other departments. I don't know them at all but they hot. Sooo many hotties at this store, workers and customers. Many customer girls in tight yoga pants with great asses, or trad dresses.

    I barely get to talk to anyone there, there's like no downtime. Either way, I get jealous when I see the coworker girls with the latino/black guys they know better, probably from school. They all know eachother, they're all goofing off and cracking jokes in spanish, probably banging as thats what friends do now far as i know. I can't compete with that, so why try? Also, they're coworkers. I shouldn't date coworkers, I value this job more than them. Which is sad but this is all i can get so im hanging on tight. I kinda don't even want to be friends because that would lead to feelings and importance that I can't have. But still, I fantasize about them all.

    What are the signals?
    >>
    I have been on about 8 dates with this girl over 4 months. Every single date I have initiated, and i think most of the chats.
    She always responds, and always agrees to do something. I waited for even a week on purpose and waited for her to initiate but she never does. Also she never has time on weekends. Sex happened and she even cooked for me. She doesnt seem super shy but maybe…
    Is this an obvious case of her not being that interested or what?
    I can’t really ask her to initiate more, right? Makes me look needy?
    >>
    >>35025422
    you've talked to her a bit, listened and should know what she likes by now. So just invite her out to something she'd like to do.
    >>35025963
    just keep talking to her bro and invite her out to an event or something that you're sure she'll like.
    >idk why i pussied out of just saying something myself, maybe i didnt want to be too tryhard always coming up to her
    its ok if it's clear you like talking to her.
    >>35026716
    >Making your intention clear immediately sets you above most men. You have to make it immediately clear that this is sexual. This is easier said than done for many men. Many think just by approaching that is enough but it’s not, you have to give “I want to fuck you” energy WHILE also not appearing desperate, playing it cool as you said.
    This probably works i guess but it's not what I do at all. I always have low stakes, low expectations interactions with women because I'm under the expectation of being friends at most. I mainly just want to be friends with people and enjoy talking to women more than men. I mainly just talk to people that seem interesting and if they are I show genuine interest in what they're talking about. You can't have friends with benefits without the foundation of being friends in the first place.

    however my perspective is probably a bit warped. I don't think I'm flirty, I generally don't do it consciously but everyone thinks I am to the point of getting in a bit of trouble for it at times. I *do* enjoy sexual tension and I can get a little touchy when permitted.

    I'm not going to give advice on getting touchy with your female friends or girls you just met at the club because I don't trust any of you motherfuckers to handle it with the finesse it needs.

    but yeah, i do the opposite. I'm friendly, our first times hanging out I make it clear it's not a date. I'm not really interested in dating. But sometimes we clique so well physically we end up in a FWB situation anyway.

    Speak for yourself. I require a lot from women. My girlfriend is independent, has a job, and we split the bill everywhere we go. I also call her out on her shit.

    >>
    The biggest sign you are getting cucked by a girl is if she is speaking like she is telling you maybe when you are trying to date her. No, you have to get a dead set on yes or no. I understand some women are shy and understandably some women expect you to be the one who pulls the moves, but dating works best when both you and her are at a comfortable place. If she ain't comfortable with you it ain't gonna work out and that ain't ever gonna matter if you are the hot guy in the room.
    >>
    >>35037217

    I had a hunch she was showing body language of having a crush on me so I started talking to her. Within 24 hours she was asking me about an old high school kissing game.

    Lately I've been having to initiate every single convo with her but when I do chat she is very welcoming. I asked her how her vacation was and she is comfortable enough with me to tell me it was horrible. She's all smiles when talking and seems interested in what I have to say. When she need to show me something on her work phone she doesn't hold the phone up in front of me, she stands to my side and leans towards me so we can both look at the screen together.

    But my god do I have to start talking to her EVERY TIME. We are totally silent in the same room when I say nothing. The signals of losing interest are clear if she was outgoing, but I can't tell if she's getting cold or too nervous to initiate.
    She is very quiet, she always leaves without saying goodbye to anyone and sometimes she can go an entire work shift without saying a word. I think I have seen her initiate a chat with anyone 3 times in the past 3+ months.

    look up that word and engrain it into yourself

    most people are afraid to show dominance and authority
    you behaved like most people in that moment
    you get the same results as most people will

    Women love sex and they love to cum. Just like us, sometimes sex is just about feeling good physically and cumming, and that's ok.
    Sex can be euphoric and loving but it doesn't have to be every time.

    It seems my low self esteem has blinded me to the status I could potentially have, went out on a 4 day trip with about 15 friends, and I got to see how the guys who aren't respected get treated, like absolute jokes without a scrap of acknowledged masculinity. I also noticed I have a slight pull on a few of the girls in the group, that thing that happens when people break up into sub groups to make travel easier was pretty consistent.

    Now that's all well and good, but it doesn't change how my brain's wired, I have severely low self esteem and I'm pretty sure the years and years of rejection and neglect have made me afraid of being loved. The fuck do I do about this limbo state

    >>35038043
    I've had a girl touch my chest and give me deep looks and have gotten feelings of a connection. All I gotta say is be cautious. She has to be more than just an acquaintance or friend. Some women are just flirty. Plus anon, women that get disappointed too easily when you don't play the game right ain't worth it to begin with, because if they got mad you don't pick up the signals and refuse to be direct, they're probably using you to get a status boost around others. See if she continues flirting with you and doesn't retreat into stupid shit like thinking you're in the closet or some shit like that for not flirting.

    it is absolutely over. Had to learn the hard way, too, except this happened like 3 times to me, before I realized why they go ice cold after giving me the opportunity.

    >>35042196
    Are you saying she answered the door completely naked? And went to the fridge and got you a drink completely naked?
    I like women when they make the first move but that's one of those that might catch me off guard too. It depends on how the car ride went, what mood she got me in during that. But yeah for "make the first move" I mean just start making out with me, I've had a bunch of girls do that. Examples would be:
    Girl came to a party just to seduce me, stood in front of me the whole time, kept brushing everyone else away, then towards the end of me she start making out with me before I even considered it but she was a good kisser so I took her home
    Or the girl I liked that took me to the club to the floor to dance all sexy on me and brushing her lips against mine
    Or the girl from the club that just picked me out randomly and started making out with me so I took her home

    For a situation like yours, she made it a lot easier on me:
    Took me back to her place, got in bikini and heels I bought her, took me to her apartment swimming pool, got in pool with me, started getting all fresh and frisky on me in the pool all wet in a bikini with the sexy heels I got her just to the side of the pool
    >>
    >>35042234
    no she was wearing a bath robe but the sexual tension was intense, she was much less nice to me afterwards and ghosted me
    >>
    >>35042245
    So what should you have done in hindsight? Easy one to remember for future reference could be "I'd love to slow dance with you naked"

    What mood did she have you in during the car ride? Seems like she unfairly put you on the spot without much support on her end
    >>
    >>35042261
    i probably should have kissed her and get her aroused then take her to the bed and fuck her. she was disrespective, just put on music and scrolled her phone, after we came back to her place she just quickly said thanks and walked in, didnt invite me in again.

    I could tell you the truth about rejection and how it's not actually a bad thing. But it doesn't change how it feels and idiots like to tell me it's cope when it's objective fact.

    The thing guys have to realize is that if a woman rejects you for things that are true about you, it means that either the two of you are incompatible or that her perceptions of those things are wrong and rather than discuss it with you like an adult, she immaturely rejects you immediately.
    In either case, bullet dodged. Nothing of value was lost.

    Now if she rejects you for things that *aren't* true about you, that shit sucks. It might have to do with her perception or how you portray yourself. Like I spent years portraying myself as a sexless nice guy because I thought hiding my desire was polite. I eventually learned otherwise.
    But even if it sucks, it's still not rejecting you as a person.

    Essentially, the only people who see the real you and reject it are people who you would be miserable with anyway.
    Rejection isn't a disaster or even a bug. It's a feature.
    >>
    Is this the right thread? I need to vent / get advice.

    The girl I loved more than anyone before her and who I spent the best year of my life with broke up with me 2 weeks after we moved in together, after we had a few arguments. Nothing major, except maybe the last one where I pressed her why she didn't write me for almost the whole time she was back at home for a day (which was very weird for her). It was a long distance relationship until this point, and I got a job in a city that is halfway between our respective homes as a compromise. Now I'm here all alone. She gets picked up by her family on Friday, she looks as unhappy as I am, but I already tried to convince her once that she should stay, and I'm not trying again.

    It was a mistake to even question her about this decision, but she basically had ten different reasons to break up with me, main one apparently being that we don't "vibe" and she can't "open up" to me, "doesn't know" me, wants to "live her youth". She had a lot of BS reasons too, like that her being constipated when we were together means her body told her I'm not the right one. Also she's mentally unstable, depressed and has a bunch of other undiagnosed personality disorders - but I do kinda understand the point that I just didn't have enough in-person talks with her, didn't make enough of an effort to keep her excited, etc. I was aware of these issues, but I thought they could wait until we were both settled here, as I was also extremely preoccupied with my own issues at the old job, getting everything in order to move to the new place etc.

    I feel like absolute shit right now. I intend to go no contact after she's gone, but I know I'll cling to the hope that she comes back for a long while. Anything you can tell me to make me feel better?

    This is what happened: Women are not allowed to just call up a guy and say that they want him to come over and fuck her or he will never respect her and just treat her like a whore. So instead, she has to invite him over on a pretense and sort of let it happen naturally. That was her expectation. It was a booty call. And then you showed up and basically responded "Nah, I don't want sex. I'll just take a soda." After that kind of rejection, why would she ever express any interest in you again?
    From her perspective, you rejected her, hard.

    I'm finding more and more often, that every single negative interaction between people like this is entirely about unspoken expectations, the other person not meeting unspoken expectations, and then them making conclusions based on others not meeting their unspoken expectations.

    For example, you did not communicate your expectation that you were going to pick her up outside of her car, on time, and then she would be ready to go when you got there, and that there was no romance or sex involved. You made the assumption that that did not need to be communicated because it was your expectation that she already knew that. It was an unspoken expectation. That's how all these things happen.

    It's likely that her unspoken expectation was that you knew that when a woman invites you into her home barely dressed, she is expressing her comfort with you being that intimate with her.
    >>
    >>35042435
    >basically responded "Nah, I don't want sex. I'll just take a soda."
    It's worth noting that when women have guys essentially throwing their dicks at them all the time, when they express an interest in being aggressively pursued and the guy doesn't throw his dick at her, she assumes a lack of interest rather than anything else. They've been trained that an interested guy is sexually aggressive.

    And I once had a girl try to ply with liquor to get me to make a move and I was clueless. So, it's not just an autistic thing.

    And it takes two to tango. She could have been clear and gotten what she likely wanted. Everyone expects their assumptions are obvious to everyone.

    >the main thing women look for in men is dominance
    It's actually security. Competence, money, or being dominant are all proxies for security. Like how youth and beauty are proxies for health.

    And just to clarify, most guys get dominance completely fucking wrong. Too many flip their insecurity into a need to act controlling and think that's dominance.
    Others mistake dominating others for being dominant.

    Authority is commanding obedience without persuasion or intimidation.
    Being dominant is not dependent upon the behavior or response of others. Someone who is dominant isn't completely different when they're alone.

    >Lately I've been having to initiate every single convo with her
    The question is if she never initiated or if started initiating and then stopped.

    My default answer is that in every single complex situation I was ever in, calmly putting all my cards on the table and clearly and explicitly explaining my position would have ended up being far better than what I did. That's how I got heartbroken and lost the most amazing friend I ever had.

    Whenever I explicitly explain myself now, I get stared at like I'm a bizarre freak and then things go perfectly well. I'm sticking with it.

    >>
    >>35042705
    Short answer is no. And do you *want* a girl who wants a guy only if he has more money and possessions than you have?

    Just make sure that your car and house is "nice" from a woman's perspective, not just yours.

    Does your bathroom have a trashcan that's concealed or has a lid?
    >>
    >>35042729
    >I just want to makeout with a legal age pretty girls feet.
    The issue is that you're objectifying and reducing the woman from an individual person into the thing attached to the feet you want to make out with. You're literally telling the woman that you don't value or respect her and just want feet. They generally don't like that.

    >How can I make that happen without being arrested
    Making out with feet isn't illegal. The appropriate way to go about it is to date women and finding one that isn't bothered by you spending *some* of your attention on her feet. Offering them a foot rub once you're comfortable and casual with each other is a good seque into the topic.
    Unfortunately, with a kink that could be deal breaker for either of you, the traditional path can be a huge waste of time and it's probably better to find a partner on a kink website. Act polite, intelligent, and respectful and you'll automatically be well above average. I am not exaggerating.

    >or labeled a pred or whatever on social media?
    No way to prevent that. My approach is to be open, honest, and not a predator so that my words and behavior speak for themselves.

    >I’m afraid to even offer money because that’s creepy right?
    Well, yes. But mostly because it is, again, objectifying, suggesting that they're a sex worker, and also actually illegal in many places. ...unless you film it and sell it on the internet, apparently. But that's a whole other thing.

    My car not so much. Creaks a lot. Leather not in good shape. Exterior isn’t terrible, it’s a 2017, but has a massive dent on the passenger side and you have to slam it to shut it.

    she initiated that one flirty chat and then stopped altogether. Typically I would understand this as she lost interest and pulled back, but some people are telling me she still likes me but got scared after tipping her hand and went to reclusive safety.

    Is that a thing shy girls do? Normally I only talk to girls that approach me, so that means I spend my time with outgoing women. I have no fucking idea how to talk to shy girls.

    She has to play with you then intiate with you. If she just plays she is flirty with everyone. Intiating is something else. Remember that and do not get attached to flirty women who simply play around.
    >>
    >>35042824
    >Is that a thing shy girls do?
    Yes.
    More to the point, it sounds like she is just generally quiet and comfortable being quiet and not likely to initiate conversations.
    Which means that her initiating at all was more my meaningful. She's very likely thinking that you're thinking things you're not and imagining your behavior might mean things it doesn't. She's probably insecure, because a lot of people are.
    I don't know if she's interested but I don't think her not initiating means she isn't.

    >She has to play with you then intiate with you. If she just plays she is flirty with everyone.
    Not necessarily. Everyone is different.

    True.

    >do not get attached to flirty women who simply play around.
    Fair advice but it's easy to overestimate your perception of what is "just playing around".

    Essentially, don't be a dismissive dick to other people and don't tolerate people who are a dismissive dick to you.

    Like, yes, I know the meme dream here is a pure trad virgin girl yada yada, but in-person, it was odd, at least at my age.
    I also feel like I’ve now imprinted on her like a mother bird too, so idk what the move is. Like I said, she also had some other questionable qualities that give me doubt in pursing serious stuff.

    You care too much

    Casual dating is the worst head game ever. If you’re going to play that field you need to not care.
    If you didn’t care you’d either not text her back and wait to see if she reaches out, or you’d just text her and try and make plans because you know what you want and you’re pursuing it and you don’t care if she sees you as needy or whatever.
    >>
    >>35045733
    That sounds reasonable.
    I agree with the sentiment, although I’m dubious on the nature of short-term fum; distance (and she doesnt drive highways?), she doesn’t drink or anything, kind of having a hard read on what she likes to do, and she was already deferring all decision making to me, she lives at home (not that I’m fucking anytime soon apparently), etc.

    >>35044142
    >never cold approach a woman that does not have the option to walk away from you. (she is stuck there waiting for the bus)
    Definitely good advice. I still have but I have mastered the art of being extremely casual and shrugging, shutting the hell up, and ignoring her and minding my own business if she's disinterested. Many guys can't do that well.

    >>35044197
    >Does it count as a cold approach if you try to make conversation and only ask her out if it goes well?
    Yes. It is cold approaching if you're striking up an unnecessary chat with a stranger out of nowhere.

    >Also, in that case, where do you meet women? Like, just go up to them when they're walking around the mall?
    No.
    If I see an attractive woman who seems idle and might have time for a chat, yet has the option to walk away, make a comment or joke and see how receptive she is for a chat.
    The location doesn't matter as much as her receptiveness.

    its over bros. im too old to go get girls anymore. I am just gonna surrender to a relationship to this girl who treats me good and give me blowjobs whenever I want them. Something is fucked inside of me because I see going out and getting girls as like my primary directive for life. But I also feel like I need to be realistic because at some point its just not practical to always be a bachelor and going out hitting on girls. I also feel like I am going to reach the critical mass of having a bad reputation because I dont live in a major city and you can only talk to so many girls before you gain a reputation. Also I deeply fear bitches using these facebook groups to dox me and shit. They probably already have. Its just over bro women are winning. Anyway it doesnt matter. Having a girlfriend has so many perks and this girl would do pretty much anything for me. I should be grateful for that. She isnt the hottest girl at all. But she has her own house and she does my laundry and she is just all around an asset to me and never makes trouble for me or starts drama. How can I say no to that. Now its on me to find a way to reorient how I think and find a new purpose with life. I wish I just had something I was passionate about that wasnt being a drunk fucking psychopath larper.

    >women can feel your confidence and indifference and it draws them to you

    The heaviest of burdens crushes us, we sink beneath it, it pins us to the ground. But in the love poetry of every age, the woman longs to be weighed down by the man's body. The heaviest of burdens is therefore simultaneously an image of life's most intense fulfillment. The heavier the burden, the closer our lives come to the earth, the more real and truthful they become.
    Conversely, the absolute absence of a burden causes man to be lighter than air, to soar into the heights, take leave of the earth and his earthly being, and become only half real, his movements as free as they are insignificant.
    What then shall we choose? Weight or lightness?

    pretty lame. The chad move is to unlock your phone and hand it to her and ask her to put her info in there.

    The psychology of showing her the trust to hand her your unlocked phone means that you will typically be rewarded with trust in kind. Just kind of how people tend to think. And its undeniable a pretty alpha way of operating imo. I have only ever been turned down doing this a few times and I genuinely believe its because she had a boyfriend or whatever.

    I’ve had many beautiful women. I’ve had long term relationships.

    But my paradigm tells me I am not enough for a cute, feminine attractive / fit girlfriend. The goalposts always shift.
    Like I need more money or a nicer car or this or that before I deserve one.
    I know that those things will not replace my poor self image and I need to fix that.
    I want to believe that I can have the kind of woman I want.

    lol you act like this statement has some significance but it doesnt. Life isnt fair. You have to play the hand you are dealt. Thinking like this is a waste of your time and its childish.

    If you cant accept that then consider something else. At the end of the day, everyones brains automatically undergo "hedonic adaptation". Such that at the end of your life everyone will experience pretty close to the same amount of happiness. For example the homeless fag finding 20 dollars and the giga chad buying a new yacht both produce the same neurological response. And so when you look at life through this lense its very easy to see that women typically suffer just as much as you do. Not with finding a parter but they are typically neurotic as fuck and basically torture themeselves, they have periods and shit, they are utterly depdendent on other people for entertainment and the vast majority of women suffer from anxiety and literally live in fear of life.

    If I constantly get the girl im seeing to suck my dick is she going to start resenting me or could it like have a psychological effect of making her get used to serving me and feel like its her duty. You know what I mean? On some level it seems based like I am training her to be submissive.
    >>
    >>35049602
    This is just cope
    Yes, life isn't fair but you aren't forced to play a rigged game. What do men get from being jesters and having to dedicate their entire lives to women who do nothing?
    Also, that whole paragraph is laughable. Really, the poor starving homeless man who barely goes a day without getting an illness, who eats shit from the trash, is just as happy as a rich guy? These are completely different things, even in the singular events of getting money and getting a yacht, the yacht is long-term luxury and fun whereas the money is just assuring him being allowed to live for a couple weeks or months.
    Women live life in tutorial mode compared to men. Their neuroticism isn't natural, it's born out of literally having everything handed to them. There's a classical saying that "idle hands are the devil's playthings", meaning that evil acts come from people who don't do anything. Women are comfortable and yet delude themselves into agony. Regardless, this agony isn't real beyond a temporary mental state. Periods aren't world-ending, they just change their hormones a bit and that's it. Most women don't suffer from anxiety and live fearful of everything, they use that either to manipulate men or it's once again a limited mental state that they go through.
    Women don't face real struggles. Not even just in dating but they also dominate education and easy comfy white collar jobs because they're designed for them and have tons of DEI initiatives and shit. You won't see women living as bad as men, in trailer homes barely making ends meet.
    >>
    >>35049616
    Stopped reading after your second line. You obviously should not dedicate your entire life to women who do nothing. Also the notion of "jester" is pure fucking autistic retardation. As if you are above having fun or see having a sense of humor as being somehow demeaning.

    >>
    >>35049621
    Are you unable to see the point? It's being a jester because women do NOTHING. Having a sense of humor is good but women overwhelmingly don't contribute beyond just existing and believing they're the table
    And most women are like this because women are pampered and believe they deserve princess treatment
    I could go outside and see this constantly. I could try to get a woman attracted to me but I wouldn't be able to, I haven't had a single girl be attracted to me which I've seen other dudes share but conveniently every woman has a boyfriend. Even if I tried it'd just be a jester and then be a betabuxx because I'm well aware no woman is attracted to me enough to desire me and care for me beyond provisional status.

    To avoid being a simp, all a man needs is self respect and to establish boundaries. But that might require, you know, changing and adapting. You don't need to rage against half the planet in order to value yourself, anon.

    I'm going to doubt you. I've seen FAR to many guys prattle on and nitpick stupid bullshit. I expect that your idea of "good enough" is actually "nearly flawless".

    Everyone has flaws. Even the Mona Lisa is falling apart.
    You can have standards. I sure as fuck do.

    But so many anons are expecting the average woman to be a goddamn cover model to be "acceptable" and then wondering why the top 5% most attractive women aren't single and into them.

    When I was in highschool, we knew there was a separate scale for irl women versus celebrities. Anons are idiots.

    That said:
    >>35049684
    >Bro she looks like shrek, and that's with makeup and filters
    The issue is twofold. One is that she's that overweight while that young. She's likely never going to look better or be healthier. The other is that the angle makes it clear that she's doing everything she can to look as good as possible, whether or not she's using filters.
    But her features aren't hideous or ugly.

    >ugly fat women
    My point is that there are more than just "ugly fat women" and "acceptably attractive women" in the world.
    Anons like you seem like you suffer from All-Or-Nothing thinking, which is a cognitive distortion.
    >>
    >>35050997
    >Not those anons, but how do you tell if a woman is in your league?
    Leagues don't exist. Cultures exist and it's more difficult to date someone from a culture other than one you are apart of. Otherwise it doesn't really matter. It's primarily about what the individual woman perceives as desireable.

    >Is the solution just to hit on women that you don't really find that attractive?
    No. When it comes to that, Dethklok was right: Listen to your dick.

    The solution is to look at actual women around you. Real life human beings. Not images through a screen. Real women have flaws. Accept reality. Dating is hard enough without adding arbitrary limitations on who you date.
    If a woman turns down a guy because he's an inch too short it's no different than a guy turning down a girl because she's got a flaw. Maybe you'll meet the most perfect woman in the world and she's got a lazy eye or a missing foot. Be open to new experiences.

    If a woman does nothing for you, don't pursue her.
    If no woman besides the most gorgeous top 5% do anything for you, you'll have to change something about yourself.

    Oh, that's no problem. The women I see IRL are way hotter than the ones I see online. The only thing that trips me up is the 5% thing. Wanting a women in her 20s already knocks out 90% of the population, plus I don't want an absolute ham planet. But other than that, yeah, I'm okay if she has some flaws.

    We'll need specifics on your relationship or previous interactions with her. Otherwise I'm just going to guess and say that you should untie her and let her out of your basement.

    In general, you only ever escalate if the woman is comfortable. But it's difficult to gauge a shy woman's relative comfort level.
    >>
    >>35051676
    The part where she doesn't tell you to just leave her alone.

    Women don't act like that to be manipulative or because they feel superior. They act like that because they don't understand you, don't feel comfortable with you, and don't know if you'll chimp out on her or think something irrational like that she's stringing you along when she is just trying to live her life.

    I understand why women won't overtly reject men or tell them they're not interested
    my confusion stems from reaching that point, trying to disconnect, but her still continuing to seek out interactions
    if I make her uncomfortable, I figured that me laying off would be better for her, no?

    >>35052365
    From your description it sounds like you tried to actively engage repeatedly with no response and then stopped. If so, from her perspective you went from:
    being actively outgoing and she was trying not to signal interest she didn't have
    To:
    Being quieter, withdrawn, and no longer actively outgoing.

    She might have noticed and been concerned something was bothering her coworker without changing her receptiveness to being pursued.

    >>35052409
    >she was trying not to signal interest she didn't have

    The correct response is to fly casual.
    Just exist in the same space and treat her like a normal human being.

    Her picking up that you changed and asking if you're okay likely didn't have deeper meaning. She noticed you were withdrawn and was asking if you're okay. She likely wasn't signalling interest.
    And withdrawing isn't necessarily bad. It's just unnecessary and can indicate another things, like you're depressed, sick, or miserable. And she might give a shit if her coworker is any of those things.

    It should be in person and with a valid excuse to do something together. Like if there's an event you want to go to or you got a gift certificate to a restaurant or whatever. If she turns you down because of some legitimate conflict, then you counter with asking her to go out on another date, making it completely obvious that you're asking her out. If she questions why you're doing it out of the blue, tell her a palatable version of the truth, that you had planned to, missed a shit, waited for another, and then too much time went by and you thought you could let it go, but now you've decided to try anyway.

    If she's never dated she's likely to be more receptive and equally awkward in response.

I ruminated for a bit on whether I fucked up, but that itself is a bit fucked up, isn't it? Like, just treating every girl that I see like a potential gf. The conversation was nice, but it's not like this was love at first sight, nor that she was absurdly hot. I sometimes wonder if I'm more frustrated by not feeling able to pull women than I am about not pulling women in the first place. Idk, I feel like I need some advice about this situation, but I'm not sure what I need to be advised about.

    I had an epiphany at one point while brushing my teeth after going to big house party and striking out with all the girls and coming home alone again. I asked my reflection why I had such trouble with women. My answer came immediately back: I don't.
    I had talked to a lot of women. They were all engaged and had a good time. Most had boyfriends. None were interested in a date. But they all were smiling and had enjoyed talking with me when I had parted with them.
    I went to bed happy.

    Not winning the game isn't the same thing as playing badly.

    Eventually, I simply shifted the goal from trying to get a date to trying to get rejected while still making the girl happy she talked to me. Eventually I accidentally got a date and a gf.

    Get in touch with being a human being and stop acting like you are the shit. I know easier said than done, but do you have any idea how many guys these women had in their lives who showed up with cars, getting high, and having a good body. A fucking lot! However, a man who understands what it is to be human makes things different for women.

    Yeah, I think that's the angle for me to go down.

    I don't.

    How about a man who not only understands himself but is also willing to see the other is, as they are?
