Mainstream 3 fellas... WORK, SCHOOL, SOCIAL CIRCLE (MUTUAL). That's it. The rest (bars, online, interest clubs) is concessionary chaff. Good for the one in one distant moon, but not the majority. Work smarter, not harder.
I agree 100%.

It really is about relationaships. You have to give her a reason to move forward with you. Cold approaching does not establish anything.

And you're asking this because you have none?

I would consider them both rejections, just one is worse than the other. I can't stand hostile rejections, I feel that it is unnecessary. Some places I've traveled to are worse than others due to the different cultures, generally speaking, but it is more common. I think the two worst cities I've been to as far as being most likely to get rejected in a brutal way are London and Los Angeles. Something about those two cities that seem to have a lot of women that think they are too good for most men and have a right to be rude to them, and they act like it is a crime for men to approach them unless they look like Brad Pitt, David Beckham, or Prince William.

I also don't care for the passive-aggressive form of rejection of pretending they don't see or hear the guy approaching them.

6. You're With Another Guy In Any Capacity

Besides giving respect to not approaching women already with another guy, I go stone cold for attraction with any women that uses another guy to elicit a response from me. I understand they have other options and all it is is trying to tell me to step up my game, but it completely turns me off. I already moved on.

Using jelousy to try to get a guy to make a move is just wrong. As far as I am concerned, you're going for the other guy for real and I have other options too.

Exactly. That works with women, not men.

Because it can be humilliating..

I dont know what's worse in a public setting the how dare you even enter my airpsace rejection they give you right away or when you have a few minute conversation think you might be getting somwhere and she makes eye contact with her friend to come and save her from this annoying ugly guy hitting on her..

Then even though you have no intentions of talking to her again they try to avoid you the rest of the night so she doesnt have to talk to you again..

Im done getting my ego trampled

seriously, where is the logical argument, debate that guys have to be the ones to always take charge and take control, lead, and that having balls is the reason why, why is balls the reason that guys have to initiate? does it say in the Bible? did God say so or what? nobody really every explains why
