does anyone have guy friends that you talk to and realize so many guys on the internet think they are a victim of the male loneliness epidemic when really they just aren’t good at dating? i keep trying to help but they dont listen 😭

I feel this. I had to tell my guy friend that leaving her on read for days, not telling her you’re on a massive vacation, and not saying hello to her when you see each other in public probably makes her feel that you don’t really care about her. He has fixed and they’re doing much better now but he nearly dropped the ball and she is far too nice for that

YES. not a guy friend, but my brother. he’s left SO many women on read, beautiful women he matched with, and yet he complains he’s almost thirty and doesn’t have a wife. i keep trying to explain to him that you’re literally ignoring interested women.

Someone who doesn’t even get the chance to go on dates isn’t “bad a dating” they can’t even date so that makes no sense. Someone has to give them a chance before that can even be the discussion

Yes. I’m autistic and I can’t detect it till it’s too late. I’ve had to break off friendships (with men) because other women told me that the man was a creep or he was creeping on me specifically. I’ve gotten better at picking it up and when I try and point it out to the male friends I still have but they get upset and think I’m being mean. I had one guy who wanted to take a tinder date to the woods for their first date. He got upset when I told him that she probably wouldn’t like that.

If you match w someone on a dating app and they ask to meet up, that's a chance. The problem is a lot of guys ick ppl out before that or don't really make the effort to prove real interest (ignoring texts for days, etc) before getting to that point

Idk what world you live in where most men get matches or better yet most women even reply past the first or second intro messages.

Same world as you, where people have to bring something interesting to the table to grab my attention and I have to bring something interesting to grab theirs. Whether it's a hookup, date, or just chatting, passion for something will get me interested a lot faster than a "hey" from a blank profile. And people who ask me questions about my interests will get me to talk so much more than someone who offers little to start a conversation with

Avg woman has a profile of zero substance on hinge and puts zero effort on prompts. You wouldn’t know that though since you can’t see them being a girl yourself

Lmfao 1) I'm not a girl, and 2) I'm bisexual. I see just as many women's profiles as men's and tbh there's no substantial differences I've noticed. And I swipe left on many for the lack of substance because I don't know enough to know if I'm interested.

Whenever something fails with them they seem to blame their appearance or bank account even though I’ve repeatedly told them it’s because they are doing weird shit or that she just wasn’t interested. Some of them have made weird jokes to/about me that I let fly thinking they were just strange but I ended up having to distance myself because other people approached me telling me it wasn’t ok and they weren’t jokes. It’s disgusting, I just want to be friends and they ruin it then blame me.
