Ehhh, I'm on the fence. I've always had a "whatever happens, happens." attitude about dating/romance in general.
I don't put that much thought into it like that. I just don't think it's necessary. Most of the crushes and interests I have had, all happened by chance. The way my feelings are if I am going out with the intention of meeting someone, I never meet anyone and I am almost never attracted to anyone that way. Everything has always happened by chance with me. As crazy as some may think this is, that is how things always happened in my experience.
I know a lot of people think you have to action into your hands when dating, and that is true. But real connections usually happen out of the blue, at least that's how it has been in my experience. I just think things happen naturally. What ever happens, happens. It is what it is. I don't think it's really anything to stress about.
the key to success in romance is to put your efforts into those who actually reciprocate your feelings 100%. If someone you are interested in does not express the same level of interest in you do not spend even another second of your precious effort or resource on them, any time spent on them is time NOT spent finding the one who is going to have a high level of interest in you.
Way too many people, especially men, spend way too much time on people who are not 100% into them. Eventually that ends in either a breakup or worse divorce.
In any case, the key is to fill your life and keep busy. The last thing you want to do is have time to be sitting around thinking about rejection.
Thoughts?
Yap. Agree 10000%. Just way too late for me to KNOW that for a fact. I was once one of the million lonely people in the world who sit around thinking about rejection. What a waste of 3 decades of my life. Really.

Exactly.
And the way to do that is to take action.
I'm fully convinced that a man would be happier having sex with 2 women he's so-so into than being single and pining after a woman who friendzoned him who cares absolutely nothing about him.
You should always have something going on so to speak.
If a guy has that philosophy, he's a virgin for life.
That's probably true.
But women definitely deal with the same issue when it comes to friendships. I'm pretty positive women get blown off a lot.
So, they can apply it to that.
