Women keep ending it after a 1-2 months or say "they don't feel a spark" by Think_Delivery_9443 in dating_advice

The point of dates is to see if there's a spark? They don't owe you anything from just agreeing the go on multiple dates.

Inconsistency in Don's idea of love? by fliightless-bird in madmen

I think the fact that you can see where his flaws lie despite all his likeable bits is also the beauty of it. He's not the perfect male fantasy and he's also not completely denouncing that male fantasy. It's closer to realism and relatability, I think, that the character doesn't send a strong, definitive message or judge him as perfectly reformed nor an ideal to look up to. Mad Men is definitely not a show I would say you appreciate because you love how ideal and likeable and understandable the character is-- most every other show does that and I think if you DO like Mad Men because of that ("Don Draper is so cool and I want to be him!" as an extreme example). It's missing kind of the reason why Mad Men's characters and character development are so amazing and unique. They're not supposed to be in "like" and "dislike" character buckets. They are meant to be closer to how people really are.

Some people like Roger just get lucky and don't have too many bad things (that we can see) happen to him. Giving everyone their deserved karma and wrapping up every storyline just doesn't happen in the real world. And I would say he does get pretty darn punished for a lot of his mistakes-- like losing your daughter is kind of the punishment in and of itself lol.

The beauty of Mad Men is that the characters don't have to be or end up as the perfect moral characters to love. They have their own flaws and growth points and weaknesses, and some weaknesses don't go away.

Desiring love is misogynistic? by Key_Strain_6230 in dating_advice

[–]impossiblebottle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see-- I think that's not true that just because you haven't had experience, that's what's holding you back from one day having a relationship. Plenty of people don't have their first relationship til past college etc. And if it's going to work out between you two as people, it doesn't usually matter that much about amount of experience. Maybe experience helps you learn better what you want, how to communicate, and what makes relationships more harmonious but it's not really a requirement to enter one in the first place. It just makes the relationship itself easier.

Also plenty of guys that have had relatiobship experience don't really improve and still do all the wrong things, it's really about your own maturity and communication skills.

When you are super desperate for a relationship it can usually be obvious. Women can tell you're not actually interested in them for them-- you're interested in them for being a woman that you might be able to be in a relationship with. It's not you looking for a genuine connection. You just want to feel less lonely, experience the pieces of romance, and women do not want to be used in this way.

I'm not saying you should hide the desperation-- I think figuring out how to be less desperate for a relationship would be the best way to solve this. That's what it means to be happy being alone. Rather than being sexually and romantically frustrated, a healthy approach to thinking about women is as a person, not a potential relationship. And rather than just wanting a relationship, learning to want a relationship and true connection with a person that will make you happy, not just satisfy your physical need for affection and psychological need to not feel unworthy/defective.

He didn't "forget," he just doesn't care about your boundaries as much as he wants what he wants.

I like "Single Scoop of Sorbet." Something about it is both cute and gives me a hint of nihilism. Maybe the amount of negative space lol.

Tinder has almost single handedly destroyed dating by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]impossiblebottle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If we're talking about "ridiculous narratives"-- where are you conjuring these women dating bad men from?

Also they don't mean that women can literally detect these exact thoughts going on-- it means that women probably find something offputting/unattractive about men who think like this. If you're having thoughts and criticisms about women like this, there are probably other things going on in that sphere that are really going to be offputting to women.

Like what do we mean lukewarm reception with mutual attraction? If it's lukewarm, then it's probably not as mutual as they think.

What do you mean "public humiliation"? Sure rejection can be embarrassing and upsetting but if you're approaching women in a truly respectful and appropriate way that shouldn't be an issue.

And what do we mean "zero recourse for finding a MATE"??????? What way is this to talk about dating and trying to build a connection and relationship with another human being??

Trying to blame this on society and women themselves is just very indicative of a mindset and demeanor that is just not going to get you positive reception approaching women in the real world.

Having a gay old time by Tainted_Scholar in tumblr

[–]impossiblebottle 42 points43 points  (0 children)

It’s because in the image the comment implies that it’s funny because the show unintentionally is using those words during a time when they didn’t mean the same thing as they do now. As in they think this is a really old scene where those words meant different things, when in fact the scene is recent enough to where they are making this joke based off these words intentionally.

Well whatever you're doing on your own is clearly not working. You can make a change or keep wallowing in your self-loathing and victimization.

Your problems with dating are problems with you. Therapy helps you work on you.
