Oh really? You know for a fact that every single woman you ever come across is not interested in you? Amazing mind reading skills you have there. Or could it be your chronic lack of self confidence in yourself as both a man and a human being? Your passiveness is related to your mental image of yourself and that is something that can be changed with a bit of work.
Mind reading is not a necessary skill to come to this conclusion. I have enough confidence in myself especially where photography is concerned thank you.
It's not illogical to assume most women you cross in a given day aren't interested in you. It's actually really logical, and it's what everyone who isn't a egotistical douche assumes. We assume women aren't into us by default, and the ones who make it known that they are interested in us are the one's we pay attention to.
This doesn't mean we see all women as non thinking entities without their own thoughts, experiences and interests. What a ridiculous thing to say. It means the exact opposite, that we understand that women are all unique and have their own preferences, and only a handful of women will find us attractive enough to want to be with us.
The difference between passive and bold action taking men is that the passive ones wait for said women to reveal themselves, whereas the bold action taker chats up every woman he finds attractive and then see's if she is into him back.
Lots of passive men are only passive in the beginning stages of a relationship. Once the guy meets the woman and knows from her behavior/words that she is into him, he will become emboldened and take more action.
In my entire life I've known maybe 3 guys who were not interested in women and all of them were kind of strange. It simply isn't normal behaviour. I'm sorry most of you don't like hearing it but it's the truth.
I, personally, am interested in women and do date them.
However, I do not agree with the current expected dynamics between men and women. I actually have a brain and I believe that men are getting a raw deal. What's more is that most men agree with me. But they just view it as a "It is what it is" situation. These men are not vocal about it and have, for the most part, taken what they can get in relationships and marriage.
I didn't read all the pages, but I'll chime in from my perspective. I may be forever alone because of my age, pickiness, and location. I actually think its mostly location, and really hope to change that in a hurry, as I feel like time is running out for me to find someone. In the past, it was shyness. Yes, there's a degree of that to this day (I can't approach random women), but I'm more confident now at least and can do well if/when I get to a second date. Its usually smooth sailing if I can get date #2 because it means my introversion hasn't hurt me and I've met an extroverted woman. I have never been, nor will I ever be passive, unless I just totally give up. I guess that is possible, actually.
How the hell did you get all that from his sentence? It's not illogical to assume most women you cross in a given day aren't interested in you.

I agree with you. Most women I see in public are not into me and it is a logical thought. I just keep it moving because I could care less if a woman doesn't like me.
OK reading this is interesting. I'd always gotten the impression that men could not live without sex, and that was the main reason they'd throw caution to the winds and pursue women. Even if they get rejected. What about you forever alone men on this thread?
Is sex a factor? How are you fulfilling your sexual desires if you are not in a relationship, or cannot find women you want to approach?

Lol. Sex is pretty much the factor. I used to be in it for the 'companionship' as well, but you quickly learn what a stupid idea that is.

Eh. I went almost my whole life without having sex until a few months ago. To be honest, I could live without sex seeing that I don't make it as important in my life like other men do.
