Yes granted I can't dispute YOUR experience, however in general it can and does happen mate. ...... It goes back to the time and place and how he comes across when doing it

End of the day even the most stunningly handsome bloke in the world will have very little chance if he comes across as creepy and hasn't got the personality or know how to talk to women etc

Spot on as ever mate

It's the best possible foundation IMO....

You said it yourself you liked it when guys approached where there was obvious mutual attraction, I take it as their looks didn't give you that predatory vibe. I maybe wrong but I doubt it.

Another "new" poster who is fixated on believing that women only go for looks and that guys lacking in the looks department have no chance.

Sorry, but you are wrong. Plenty of not-very-good looking guys (who also are not rich) end up with great women.

GAAH, she never said it was their looks that gave the predatory vibe!

I never said that they don't have a chance but when they do get one it's usually not what they want. In my case it was an obese woman with two kids by different men who dumped me because I wan't good enough not exactly what a I would call a great woman.

Eye contact and smiling doesn't mean someone is interested in you romantically.

That is your only experience in being in a relationship?

Oh for heaven's sake, I hear this over and over again on here, it must be CD-R's Number One cliche..."obese" "single mothers" with kids "by more than one father". Where on earth are you guys finding your girlfriends? Reality TV?

I have to be honest: the way you're presenting yourself here, you are NOT exactly a catch. Therefore, if you really are attracting the mythical but ever-popular-on-CD obese single mother with multiple children from multiple exes, it may be that they realize you and they are on about the same page quality-wise...I mean overall.

Perhaps you should start improving yourself and see what happens. Because I know many, many, many very average-looking men in very happy relationships and I don't know if I know ANY of these ubiquitous fat single slobby sleep-around mutli-dad chicks as you illustrate here. Obviously, average guys CAN have wonderful relationships with wonderful women. Period. You can't. You need to find out why, and the one thing I guarantee is that it WILL start with you. Good luck.
