I thought she'd had it, never mind, most have misread.

She seemed to be doing okay.

NM Just another pointless ramble. So I guess Ceno's done with us eh? :sneaky:

All the interactions I've seen have involved people getting visibly annoyed or uncomfortable with this type of person. I doubt you'd be any different if a 60 year old man started a long conversation with in you in public, probably of a personal nature, that presumed upon your time and good...

Yes some men miss out because they're too shy, too 'dull' for many women these days, but a man's ability to provide a comfortable life for his partner, i.e. earn a decent living and buy house is part of what makes him 'eligible.' The average 20 something male is struggling and older...

Didn't he also start anticipating doing the opposite, then it was no longer the opposite of his intuition, and suddenly he's back to square one again. I take your point, been to dozens of meetup events, but I've been disappointed with people my age too many times and it all feels hollow now...

I've spent my entire life in the same place. This means I'm able to picture what the city was like decades ago, and suddenly I'm transported back 20 years, in the blink of an eye, to when I wasn't a middle aged man and there was still some hope. In reality, these days it's just a lot of...

Plenty would have a problem a man his age on paper, certainly, but how people perceive age (subconsciously) is still largely to do with appearances. If this 58 year old approached younger women I doubt he'd be getting ick reactions even if they didn't want to go there. At least, this is what I...

Brad Pitt is 60. We can confidently assume plenty of young women would suspend any age related objections in his case. It's gross because aging usually means a major change in appearance and drop in attractiveness.

This is true for me as well. The idea of romantic rejection was always terrifying, partly because it would re-enforce existing feelings of low self-worth. But it also seems related to a high cortisol fight-or-flight type response that was ingrained in early life. Normal set-backs and...

Or it could be people elbow charging you to the head while playing a "friendly" game of rugby. Choked out by a "friend" in front of people. Being laughed at and messed with by girls in class. Later in adult life.... Being called a piece of s**t to your face by other guys, out of the blue...

Which by the current narrative is likely to land you in more hot water, since women claim to feel scared/cornered while alone with a man.

Do you think average men receive that kind of response?

For one thing the numbers aren't comparable. The CDC states 0.3% of women and 1.2% of men aged 40 to 44 are virgins: four times as many male virgins by middle age. Women aren't expected to be active in process of finding a partner. Older virgin women can admit to never asking men out and...
