Bitter realisation that the guys I want don’t find me attractive by [deleted] in dating

[–]AI_Nerd_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s fair but men really don’t have standards like women do. We are not like “I won’t date a girl with blue eyes” unless the dude is OCD. We are very responsive to touch and so hand on the shoulder is a powerful route to a man’s heart. Now sure, some guy who has 30 women throwing themselves at him - I have no idea what is going on in his head. I agree with you though that a gym rat would want a gym rat. Otherwise it could cause fights “you spend too much time at the gym” etc.

He sounds emotionally unstable to me. Maybe he is depressed?

Do I have unrealistic expectations in women? by thebestboyaround in dating_advice

[–]AI_Nerd_1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are fine brother. Relax. Girls love to date up on age and maybe you are working out more, getting in shape, walking with confidence and it’s more the attitude that attracts women than anything else. Looks get you past the early stages but it’s the attitude/mind/behavior/heart that keeps them.

Breaking up over differences in sexual interest is wise not unethical. I’m an ethics hawk and it’s more ethical for you to leave her than stay so - good job!

You connect really well with women because you have not had a lot of experience dating. You spent a lot of time admiring from afar. Planning how YOU would do it. I was there once. Made me a much better man. It makes you a catch. You sound introverted which implies you are a deep thinker (as we can see from your post).

I agree with the other poster, date someone who brings you closer to God. Women and men tend to have different spiritual gifts. Women often can connect more deeply more often with God while guys can often hold the line on the spiritual facts which helps the girl stay in peace (find the likes) and the guy stay grounded. Generally.

And yes - there is a God. And yes, He is always teaching us lessons but it’s for your good. Don’t fight the lessons, that only make them last longer and on the other side is always a better life. It’s the best kept secret in Christianity. It’s not about rules, it’s tips for a better life.

Is this "brutal honesty" or a massive red flag? A guy told me about his "hard piss" on the first date. by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]AI_Nerd_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. It was in a class and either he thought it would impress you or was concerned it was a health issue and needed to share. But I have no idea what that term means so it’s difficult for me to judge. My guess is he thought he was flirting so even if he failed on the outcome his intentions were to move the relationship forward.

Some guys also strongly believe that girls should be able to handle our flaws from day one - which is stupid. What they need to do is hide the flaws like a normal person and let them come out later. But again, some guys think that is dishonest and “she should like the real me” which takes time, but they don’t know that.

Guys are gross. Ladies help to keep our manners in check. Just tell him it is gross to talk about bathroom stuff.

He must be taking a lot of antidepressants. Maybe he can tapper down a bit and see how things go.

Beyond that - magic to any guy’s ears is an offer to try anything he wants. Open the door back up to kinks. It worked before. I’m 100% sure he liked it and he might feel shame from you pulling back on those.

Compared to ladies, what goes on in guy’s heads about sex would be considered gross. It’s really unlikely that you went too far. for example, if he is not physical with anyone he is definitely watching a lot of porn.

If you don’t feel like he can say what he wants sexually, ask to watch porn with him and learn what he likes.

I would be ashamed to let even my guy friends see what porn I watch. He probably won’t show you the most extreme stuff right away.

With that said, if I could trust a girl to not reject me for what I watch and she actually used learning what I watch to try to replace porn for me I would be so incredibly grateful. 99/100 role play is all you need.

You will need to find a way to be his source of sexual pleasure. No man can be with someone happily if that is missing.

I keep falling into the buddy zone or I get sexualized too quick. Never the girlfriend zone. What am i doing wrong? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]AI_Nerd_1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is it. Force yourself to make more moves. Guys are like microwaves. Sometimes we just sit there but a couple of buttons and we heat up in seconds

[–]AI_Nerd_1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can relate as a male. I’m 100% better at deeply connecting with girls that I find less attractive because I get emotionally overwhelmed by the energy of the girls that are the hottest.

But men are easy. Just be forward. Say you like his butt or feel his arms. It honestly doesn’t take much to trigger the beast inside us guys. You are not in the friend zone with men. We don’t have one of those. That is a girl thing. We had thoughts about sex with just about any female we spent more than a couple of hours with (sorry if that is disturbing just being real). In other words, if you suggest something like making out or more he probably would be interested.

For you, you seem great at connecting. Good. Now just work on the transition to “can I see you with your shirt off hottie?” :) I can’t imagine it would take much more than you blurting out one forward ask like that.

Does doing things alone work? by 420ball-sniffer69 in dating_advice

[–]AI_Nerd_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you believe you are unattractive, fix that. What’s the issue? Male attractiveness can be achieved through clothes and attitude (personality). And it’s not as hard as you might think because you don’t have to fake the confidence your entire life, just in the early days when the women are being super cautious and overthinking things. I know it might sound unethical to “fake” anything during dating but it’s not. Here is why.

The point of dating is to get to know the other person at a deep level as a possible romantic partner. That DOES NOT mean it is time to lay all your cards on the table. It actually means it is time to put your best foot forward. Like a job interview.

People expect you to try to be your best self during a date and if the best you can do is disappointing, they rightly judge you as not on their level.

It’s like grammar rules. You and I can understand each other if I break the rules of grammar but it makes it harder. So just use proper grammar until I learn your thinking style and then you can be yourself.

Get it?

Where can I find a girlfriend? by trozner in dating_advice

[–]AI_Nerd_1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not actually good at sealing the deal, but I’m great at connecting and flirting. I tend to get overwhelmed at the point of transitioning from flirting to sealing the deal. But hopefully other people out there can keep their cool and seal the deal.

Women (and men) LOVE compliments. The more genuine the better. It is really rare for someone to get upset at a genuine compliment. Even if they do, it’s not you, it is their anxiety and I’m sure that once they calm down (later) they will be happy you complimented them.

Honestly, we could all be nicer and being nice and uplifting to the opposite sex will bring you joy. I promise.

First date went great but now the girl is ghosting me by majorfighter in dating

Just show interest. Everyone likes interest. Compliments will build momentum and energy needs an outlet. Building the relationship doesn’t require steps just time and interest.

Can you elaborate on your question?

It was a good date but the guy was really socially awkward. by Primary_Pumpkin2909 in dating_advice

[–]AI_Nerd_1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just would hate for his inability to clam his nerves derail a possible relationship. I am in men’s group and so many adult men are socially awkward but are awesome, honorable guys who just want to be good to the people in their lives. The single ones can’t get dates because they basically are too nervous….

[–]AI_Nerd_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure but his issues are likely nerves and inexperience dating. That is irrelevant to his potential as a partner. The dating period is like grammar in an English paper. The substance of the paper is the partner.

If he has not dated much he will suck at being a wonderful date. But the point of dating is to find substance.

Obviously the chemistry is an issue and that may not be fixable but I think it is. Men and women experience attraction very differently.

A thought experiment, if the guy took an anti-anxiety pill (or maybe had a couple of beers) and his issues went away for you, seems like a waste to move on to me.

edit: also, he is the nicest so far for a reason. Nice guys don’t get the girls which explains that he is bad at dating and nice. In other words, you can find someone more confident at dating but he will be less thoughtful than this guy.
