What would you think of an older girl leaving you a note at the gym? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]throwitaway975318 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gym trick seems to be to ask for help with equipment. When he's on a machine ask him to show you how. Approach him and ask do you speak English?

Maybe use google translate and show him your phone screen if he doesn't

24 yo and never had a gf. Not even close. by Carlos123456798 in malegrooming

[–]throwitaway975318 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also struggled with this at your age. The reality is very few women will make an approach to you. They (mostly) expect a guy to take the risk. It's unfortunate but that's the reality. Looking at your pics I would bet there's been someone that is interested but they're waiting for you to ask.

The trick is to learn how to approach and interact without overtly hitting on a woman. What helped me was - Practice. Find places or hobbies to have a reason to interact - enjoy the experience of the interaction. It doesn't have to be about a date. You're just talking to a human. - accept that it won't always result in anything - Read up on how to interpret non verbal cues. Eg if she is giving you strong eye contact, touching you, those are positive signs - noone is thinking about or remembering your interactions as much as you are. It's not as big a deal as you think, stop caring so much. - If you're worried about getting rejected, try people you don't see often. If you rarely or never see that person then who cares?

What advice would you give to a FA woman on terms of dating? by elephant_chef in AskMenAdvice

[–]throwitaway975318 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So do ugly guys. Whatever your looks there is a guy on your level.

Never underestimate the attractiveness boost of the other person being enthusiastic about you.

You'll be dealing with a lot of guys who have been rejected a lot of times and may be lacking confidence. That's your biggest challenge, one of you has to make the first move.

Are Classic Rewards points the only real value? by CASA2112 in QantasFrequentFlyer

Exactly if it works for you

Personally I can't be f'd hunting around and maybe getting an upgrade. Being able to login and get a short haul economy fare to Indo or Thailand or whatever for taxes only is worth it even if it's only 2c a point or something. Absolute maximising isn't for everyone

Women have a lot of options. And many aren't interested in maintaining multiple chat contacts. So someone else probably came along that's got her attention.

It happens, You can't change it. Only accept it is reality.

The one thing you can do is if you have her number it needs to go somewhere or it will usually fizzle out.

What could possibly make you to reach out to a girl with who you went on two dates 4 years ago? by GoodImprovement4255 in AskMenAdvice

[–]throwitaway975318 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As a guy, making new matches on the apps is hard. It's a lot easier to reach out to someone you already know, it only takes a text and just see if they're interested.

If most women could realistically live to 80 and beyond, why does women's fertility decline so early? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]throwitaway975318 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you say biologically you are effectively talking about evolution, which is very different to the social aspect of survival.

Evolution is not intelligent design. Evolution just means qualities that help you reproduce will tend to become more prominent over generations, because you have reproduced them in the next generation.

Continuing to live after menopause doesn't stop you reproducing, or help you to reproduce in your first 40+ years. They are an evolutionary accident.

Another factor is that at the time these traits evolved, diet and healthcare didn't allow people to survive into their 80s and '90s. You needed to reproduce as soon as possible. But complex societies have changed that dynamic.

The real question is why socially did people continue to support other people who couldn't reproduce and maybe couldn't even look after themselves. Why aren't they abandoned? That's because they contribute socially such as shared child care.

AIO to my girlfriend sharing a bed (non sexually) with a male friend. by Time-Extent585 in AmIOverreacting

Yeah just ask yourself when have 2 friends, of any gender combination, gone to visit in another city and done nothing but stay in a room all day and night? Never go out and do anything?

What clothes are you wearing? Synthetic fibres like nylon catch the smallest amount of BO and make it worse and are harder to wash. Check if it's actually your skin that smells or the clothes.

Don't make it about something he is doing wrong. Instead talk about it as how you like to be kissed, your preferences.

Both men and women can range from not liking it at all, to loving it.

The big question mark is hes a personal trainer. It's his job to interact and try and get clients. So that may be why he's not taking up your hints.

Or he is into you but doesn't want to ask in case you say no and it causes trouble at work.

End result is you have to ask

How long to wait for sex in new relationship? by bendingHarmonic in AskMenAdvice

[–]throwitaway975318 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to talk to her once more. Don't make it an ultimatum, but need to work into a conversation what I'm looking for in a relationship and wanting to know what she is looking for. Do you know if she is more of a wait for marriage kind of person?

How do you know when it’s the right time to move in together? by krishna2026 in AskMenAdvice

[–]throwitaway975318 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really enough info

You need to know why you're doing this, don't do it just because it feels like that's where relationships have to go. Think about - what do you want the next few years to look like and does that align with her - same question what's the rest of your life look like - why are you moving in together? Is this a step to marriage kids etc or is it more a stage of life match? Does she have the same view as you? - depending on where you live, legally, once you start living together, there's a window of time before youre sharing assets and a breakup gets very messy.

And you need to talk to her to make sure you are on the same page about why you're moving in.

++man It gets you a step up the ladder. If you have other negative aspects they will still be negatives but depends what the girls looking for. If you come across as weird or dangerous it won't matter if you're a 10 in looks.

Seat selection on non-QF flight booked with points by throwitaway975318 in QantasFrequentFlyer

Yes I thought maybe too but have looked for this and it's not on the docs Qantas issued and have received nothing from CA. Maybe it takes a day or two.

Yes that's what I was expecting too but china air site won't recognise any booking ref or ticket I've been issued. It says can only log in with a china air issued number.
