So I got feeling for a woman that I share a hobby with and I run into her fairly regularly, she also surprises and impresses me.
She probably knows I have feelings because I said I care about her over text (out of legitimate concern). Now I’m catching myself laughing at the things she says and I actually asked her to calm down because I was laughing at her and another person going at it while im high on an edible in the courthouse.
Like I haven’t pursue a relationship. She has a boyfriend and I’m learning healthy relationships (I used to be more antisocial).
I do feel like I come off as a friend,but I feel like women know mens feelings
Men are become very easily attracted to people because they’re generally pretty lonely and not used to attention. Women can pretty much assume that’s on the table if they want it
Lol you got hate for reference the lonilness epidemic. Idk if women think like this, but like a single man has a high likelihood like 70+% they at least have attraction.
Yep. It’s in this weird cultural place where addressing it somehow simultaneously pisses off progressives and reactionaries.
I’ve known some women who can talk maturely about it but yeah the majority of people are just too entrenched in their shit. Like it feels like common sense that men should “just get over it”, go touch grass, and we shouldn’t really examine the how the world economy runs on people’s estrangement.
Yeah I know that people that don’t organize are easier to exploit.
Single men are discriminated against apparently. I am a single man, but strangers can assume I have a partner somewhere in the world, plus I can talk about my nieces and nephews, I can get that family guy cred. Apparently single men can come off as rapist, chomos, or creeps. I guess single men could be viewed as wife snatchers.
I guess I hear that married men get more positive reception than single men from men and women
Yeah that’s definitely a thing. It’s called the Wedding Ring Effect. The consequences of that are kind of wild when you think about it but I guess I can see why it happens.
I low key kind of miss the attention I used to get when I was in a long term relationship but that’s like a hand grenade of a prickly thing to unpack. Does that make me a fuckboy? What does that say about the women who gave me more attention when they knew I was taken? Are they literally attracted to committed men or are we just assumed to be less inherently dangerous if we’re in a relationship? Clearly that’s a bad thing to assume because of what it could enable abusers to do
