He's a car salesman in suburban Chicago area that doesn't like to go in the city and doesn't want to live in it. Chicago suburbs are ______.

Dating in Chicago is easy as pie. It is probably one of the best places to be a young single guy.

He has already stated that he doesn't approach. That's a huge barrier right there.

Plenty of guys who are misogynists and/or narcissists attract women and have plenty of dates. Plenty of guys attract women regardless of looks, appearance, or social status.
This.

These posts are just comical.

Well, I don't think I'm that attractive honestly. I am a bit chubbier, compared to how I want to be.

...Sorry I took so long, got "kidnapped" again.

Do you think they might be intimidated by your looks?

The fact that there's a female 3/10 (and listen I'm being very generous with a 3, I would argue she's a 1/10) at my job dating a tall good looking white guy is just truly horrifying.







I aim to please playa

the way I get treated by gay men is a preview (they ****ing drool over me like crazy) of how I would get treated by men if I was a woman. It's unbelievable how easy that is and yet women still complain about it.

It's like playing the dating game on the absolute easiest difficulty level and still complaining that it's too hard.
Wow, dude. I used to have a similar problem. There was a period in my life where it seemed like women were kinda avoiding me, but guys were just piling up on me.

They weren't necessarily gay, or at least they wouldn't say they were. They just wanted to "take my manhood." Perverts.


Maybe you should just start dressing weird. I wound up with some clothes that are just weird on me and now, guys are kinda avoiding me, and women are the one's chasing and drooling.


Hey, can't complain.

Women in their 20s are asking for the moon because they're getting hit on by every guy who is 18 to 80.
If you understand this supply demand imbalance, why the @&?$ do you keep asking what is essentially the same @&?$ing question?

There's just no decent looking women who find me mildly attractive, I just don't get it. It astounds me. How can so many people find me to be extremely attractive yet decent looking women my age want nothing to do with me?
Obviously you aren't attractive to attractive women in their 20's. Get over it. That's just the way it is. It's not your fault. It's just genetics. Just like being short, or having some kind of physical disability. There's not much you can do. Just move on and live your life to the best of your ability.

The other alternative is that you are gay. Many women and gay men can sense a gay man who has not yet been able to admit his sexual orientation to himself.
