So, Average Guy, try more average women. (We weren't talking about very attractive women.) They're usually not so mean. And they're the ones who aren't getting approached, because everyone's going for the "very attractive" ones. Why do guys believe all women get hit on, when the guys themselves are only approaching the 9's and 10's?
I absolutley approach women that are more like 6's, 7's, and 8's. Even 8's, all I usually get is conversation, almost never a phone number.
Am I aiming too high based off of looks? Maybe....
Maybe we should compare scales... What defines a 6, or an 8, or even a 4?
you say he has a problem with her having guy friends then proceed to be the reason why he very well might be that way with her. i wouldnt place all the "blame" on him for there issues, they are both contributing factors to that.
as far as complicated relationships go, they only exsit if you let them be.
I am the reason?
She might have met up with ANY guy that night. Possibly someone she met at the bar, as toward the end of the night, there were plenty of.
So you are saying she isn't allowed to have guy friends? I did nothing wrong here. I met up with an old friend, and her friends.
Anyway, since then, my friend has ended the relationship with her bf. He usually crawls back to her saying he will change. So who knows if that cycle repeats itself.
IME, when challenging someone in this manner, such as 'no opposite sex friends', they will purposely seek out whatever the s/o has issues/complaints with.
I think there are two types of complicated relationships. Those that are complicated because one or both people have issues or baggage, and those where the external circumstances (job loss/issues, family problems) create complications. I also think that the majority of people (by far) are not with ideal partners, and it may be that there simply aren't ideal partners for most people. Why? Because most people do have some issues - that's normal! The uncomplicated or easy relationships are rare, but some people are lucky enough to have them.
To some degree, it may be a how you choose to behave while in a relationship, but mostly I think it's just how people are and the complexities of interaction with competing needs, issues, and aspirations.

Do you ever offer your contact info instead of just asking for hers?
What defines a "6", or whatever, can't be neatly put into a scale as it's not universal. What I consider a "6" is not going to be the same thing as what the next girl does. And the scales can easily tip-put me in a room with a "6" who makes me laugh and a "9" that doesn't and I'm going to find the "6" much more attractive. (And yes, I am talking from experience).

I dont offer my contact info. I did a long long time ago, but women don't call IME.
even online dating, when I try to proceed to texting/calling, i will offer my number, and they NEVER text or call. Funny thing is, and I do this on purpose. I will ask for their phone number. And the ones that will give me their phone number never text or call me first. I always have to initiate contact.
I understand the scale comment. hard to define as it is subjective.
But, all things being said, I am not a picky person when it comes to appearance. Part of this is because I know myself, and I am an average looking guy, and I do not have unrealistic expectations on what I can attract.
I do find that most couples tend to be evenly matched in the looks department. Just out of curiosity, where are you primarily trying to meet women?
Going back to your original question, I think it's unreasonable to expect your BF/GF isn't going to have friends of the opposite sex. I saw an online profile once that stated "you will not have male friends." Passed on that one-I'm not giving up half my friends! I know with most of my male friends, once you see us together it's pretty obvious there's no romantic vibe.

I either try to talk to women at the bar, or at social functions, concerts, parties.
The original post wasn't about opposite sex friends. I hope there isn't confusion there.
The OP was more about staying/being in a relationship with someone you know will not be 'the one'. Seems like many people are doing this, and I wonder if those people have already made up their mind that th Ey will never find 'the one'. These people just relationship hop and hop and hop.
