Honestly, I really rather have a man just reject me to my face so I can move on than for them to do that games they do when they really aren't interested in you and string you along because they think you were "desperate enough" to approach them. Both hurt the ego but one is the emotional equivalent of having a bandaid quickly pulled off and the other the equivalent of slowly pulling it off over a long period of time.

You should agree with me because I voted you were awesome in your other post lol

Maybe you do, but if you listen to the women here who have been posting, many of them don't get approached either because they are not "highly desirable." The idea that the average or below-average woman has men approaching her right and left does not play out in reality.

as a tall muscular good looking guy, I object to this. I don't sleep around at all, partly because I don't want any STD's. I have high standards and know I have more choice in my women then most, and I also know I am safe from being approached because I intimidate women, and that I can safeguard even more by being more stoic/quiet, i.e not giving them a reason to approach me. I like my privacy and I'm more introverted, I also only like hooking up with women who I am interested in, sex actually means something to me. So I work to maintain the best of both worlds, privacy when I want it, and fun interactions with women I am interested in when I want it. Having every woman coming after me would be annoying and overwhelming, only dogs go around sticking their junk in every girl they can find as if it might be the last chance they will ever get.

This women if you don't ask to go out or ask for a number you didn't get rejected your imagining the rejection.

lol. I have personally witnessed Leo Dicaprio in a club, and what the behavior of women was around him. One could say he is more worth the risk than almost any man in the world.

Women didn't approach him, AT ALL. Not ONE time. They lingered in his general area, flipping they're hair, throwing him sultry glances, but none of them had the nerve to go up to him. One girl in my group was all super confident, saying "I'm going to f*** Leo tonight" and such things. She wandered over and ended up doing the same thing other women were, hanging around him but not initiating anything. They were hoping he would, to them what they were doing WAS initiating, WAS approaching.

Women just go about it differently. Either play by the rules/reality of the game or get off the field.

Its funny that a man has to ask for a womens number to show he's interested if she approaches wouldn't him accepting be evidence enough? Also should a women do something other than accepting his date offer to show she's interested if not you can't ask this of men.

+1 This is why im out of the game at 26 I did all the approaching because women did all the things women say shos there interested. That didn't work so I said I would wait till women approach you can guess how that turned out. Now adays its work xbox and weed.

Why would I offer my number AFTER he asked for it? This is my point. Men that are interested usually ask for numbers - or they ask if I have a boyfriend or they ask me out, etc. This was my experience when I was single or even when I wasn't single. Men asked me out. They asked for my number. When they were interested - they asked me for these things before I had a chance to do anything. And the majority of the time - I wasn't single so I didn't do anything. But when I was single or was able to date, and I started talking to someone - if they were interested - they made a move.

Yes, that is your inexperience. You have said that you have avoided women your entire life. If you have avoided women your entire life - you are going to be clueless. That isn't the fault of women. That was your choice.

I never said he asked for your number he might have just said hi but I get it your talking about obvious signs of interest. Well come to the world of men you want obvious signs but you don't give any if a women doesn't say hey I would like to go out or can Iget your number you weren't obvious atleast to the men who get little or no attention from women and there are alot of us walking around. This is exactly why I think womenshould approach mre they probably would get alot mre dates.
