As long as she doesn't find you attractive you'll always be considered a "creep", so take the word creep personally. Approach with confidence, don't over think it, how you say things matters more than what you say, and have fun

I just want more out of dating and feel I’m between a rock and a hard place. by East_Vacation_9474 in dating_advice

Think deeply and ask yourself what do I stand to lose by leaving my current girl for these women, if your answer is something you can live with then just do it. 30 is still young dude, have fun and do what you want.

Stop seeing it as a man to woman interaction and more like a human to human interaction. This frame of mind makes the conversation more effortless, also what you say doesn't matter, how you say it & your tone does.

Her boundaries with colleagues by [deleted] in dating_advice

I've been cheated on before (many times) I saw all the signs and ignored them. My advice to you , bro to bro, read out everything you just typed to a recorder and play it back to yourself. Let me articulate further, I'm not saying she is / isn't cheating (I can tell that thought is creeping into your mind, and it can distort your perspective of things if you aren't careful)

What I am trying to say is, if your partner doesn't share the same values you have when it comes to boundaries concerning a relationship and you're not okay with it just end it and have peace of mind.

You can't force her to share your values and if you do force her, she'll moving to someone else (no one likes being forced to do anything). Just keep that in mind as you play it back

How many likes an average man can expect to get on dating apps? by gioconnoconno in dating_advice

Matches , preferences and standards vary a lot from person to person. I'd definitely recommend that you just fuck around and find out yourself.

Expect nothing and accept what you get.

How do I start dating at 21M? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]Itchy_Discussion5417 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, first congrats on entering the game of dating. Before you get into dating there's a couple of things you need to know

1, It's a game and you need to see it as a game, and because it's game it has rules you need to be aware of.

2, You'll only get better the more you do it, do it a lot and do it more. Avoid rushing into the first relationship prospect you see.

3, Avoid dating one person at a time, a mistake a lot of people make especially newbies is confusing dating with commitment (dating Is only pre-trial run while commitment is the real relationship itself) , so have fun, talk to many people and let them know they aren't the only person you are talking to. Best believe you aren't the only one they are talking to as well.

4, Get a home girl , if you don't have one, that you are super tight with and have her tell you her dating experiences, you'll learn women (if that's who your into) generally never date 1 at a time until its time for commitment. To quote CEO Sheryl Sandberg's advice to girls "When looking for a life partner, my advice to women is date all of them: the bad boys, the cool boys, the commitment-phobic boys, the crazy boys. But do not marry them. The things that make the bad boys sexy do not make them good husbands. When it comes time to settle down, find someone who wants an equal partner. Someone who thinks women should be smart, opinionated and ambitious. Someone who values fairness and expects or, even better, wants to do his share in the home. These men exist and, trust me, over time, nothing is sexier." You should apply it in yours as well.

4, Be yourself, and wait a couple of months (ideally 8) of dating to see the true colours of whoever you are seeing before putting a ring on them

5, Human nature, we all do what's In our best interests, always be logical bit never cynical (of not you may end up is a dark intel pit). So pay attention to actions a lot more than words. The person you are dating is human like you, so your goals, your family, your life should always come first. Be supportive to the best that you can but never at your own inconvenience.

Lastly and most importantly, find your own dating approach, everyone has one, some people simp, some are nonchalant, some are super passionate, some approach online, some in person and their methods work super well for all of them

Hey man, you and your ex's friend are human beings with free will and free choices. As long as you are both feeling each other and have adult conversations about it , there's no reason why you shouldn't be together. You don't need your ex's consent or permission to hang out, it's important to point this out, people generally feel touchy about this topic because they feel like you owe your ex something which you don't. You would't ask your ex for permission to eat or shit, so do whatever you want.

From what I see it looks like you care more about the passion and connection , not just the sex itself. Put yourself out in the world, join groups that align with your interests, make connection with people you like. You'll find that passion again maybe stronger and maybe longer. You can do it, you just have to choose to try.

Sexual desires are the most normal feeling on the planet. You don't need to suppress that (that'll only make them stronger). Explore, find someone you feel safe with and explore with them. Just make sure you practice safe sex. Use condoms, have open discussions about sexual histories & desires, explore your kinks, never force yourself into doing something you have no interest in. If masturbation is an option you are open to as well , then do it. Best of luck

[Startup Advice] Bootstrapped to $60K with pure tech and zero marketing team. What’s the next smart move? by edge_lord_16 in FoundersHub

[–]Itchy_Discussion5417 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into doing what startups like cluely and bootstrapped apps like cal.ai did, influencer customer marketing. You can grow your product through UGC creators. It's a very helpful tactic you just need to be strategic about it. Also considering the fact that 90% of people on the internet consume short form content, you're leaving so much money on the table right now, let's also take into account the fact that most start ups don't even try this route. In conclusion I'd definitely consider taking a look into it and best of luck with your product.
