The responses are what shocked me early on.

The immediate, dismissive and full-of-anger agenda driven responses.

That's why. I'm just attempting to clear up my actual beliefs instead of having them thrust upon me.

I didn't really see any anger.

Because he believes that his hot friends aren't subjected to this 'poor' treatment by all the shallow, narcissistic wimmins, just unattractive dudes like himself get the SO-drops in random conversations.

Too bad he's not a hot guy, because this would then be a non-issue to him. But alas, he is not hot like his friends, so bitter guy is bitter. His beef isn't with women, it's with his unattractiveness. He won't ever see it that way though. If he acts in life as he has demonstrated himself to be in this thread, then even if he looked like Magnum Mike he still wouldn't like how women acted around him - I know I'd be thinking exit stage left the moment he opened his mouth.

Because it wasn't directed at you.

There are like 10 pages of women telling me that I did something creepy to make these women react that way despite countless posts where I explain the situation with clarity.

That leads me to believe that they don't want to consider what I'm saying and that they have a specific agenda at hand.

Or it's just that their advice conflicts with your specific agenda and isn't what you want to read (i.e. all women are narcissists.)

See, here's a prime example of the completely unnecessary sarcastic and insulting remarks.

Even your name says a lot about you. "Dont Hate you because you're beautiful."

Of course you'd exit stage left, if a guy is just being nice, but not hot, then why talk to him?

I don't have an issue with myself. I'm who I am. I've been clear on that too.

(Reading. Comprehension. https://www.amazon.com/Shallows-What.../dp/0393339750)

But to be a jerk toward a guy and assume he's interested?

That sucks.

That doesn't explain your earlier characterization of anger. Someone disagreeing with you isn't the definition of anger.

Advice does not = accusation.

Bam.

Okay, the video is a comedic one that shows how women react differently to men based on their level of attractiveness.

Obviously, because... you know... comedy.

However, that behavior is not fake. What's shocking is how many women here are in denial about the superficiality of women in general and how no one wants to admit that what I'm saying is true in some cases.

I've already explained that I'm not interested in these women. I truly believe there's a reading comprehension issue at play.
Thanks for trying to understand me🐙
Some women are superficial. So are some men.

I never start talking about a s/o because I'm afraid a guys about to show his interest. Even if I'm right about that, I can make the choice when it happens. I don't get scared and start making up stories like a lunatic. No need to think 3 steps ahead.

When I was married I mentioned my husband a lot. I had a very small world so he was a big part of it. That's the only intention I had though. Nothing ulterior.

Now do us a favor, take a breath, don't work on your next reply, just think: "could some of this irritation and miff actually be about how I feel about myself?"

No one condoned being a jerk to a guy who talks to you. Telling you we are not single is not being a jerk.
