Declining opportunity: Given the fact that marriage is almost always the man’s decision, men who seem like marriage material are rarely single after 30; they have tied the knot and have a kid or two.

Boys will be boys: Men like to have fun, women do as well but men don’t have a biological clock, a lot (I would say most) women do. It’s not fair but life isn't fair.

The shrinking world and the western women: In today's world its to easier to go to another country and find a woman that fits you versus changing yourself to fit a modern type woman in your neighbourhood. Women in general don’t have this option as most of the men of the world are a lot more traditional than western men (and that is putting it politely).

 The Screw it Phenomena: Finally a lot of guys just don’t want to bother. I was raised to hold a chair, rise when a woman comes to the table, open doors for women, walk on the outside, etc. When I see headlines like this, I just say screw this.

Because we’ve simply given up. But don’t get me wrong, we still pursue because we’re still checking them out and try to connect with them like normal human beings. After all, it’s human nature. But when it comes to actually asking a girl out, you can tell from your own experience whether this girl is really worth it or not. 

So the real question is, why are guys afraid of approaching women?

It’s because most young women are extremely immature, and this is not my personal opinion or bias, it’s fact. I’ve been rejected a lot during my single years and it still happens from time to time so most guys, including me, stopped doing it so we could save ourselves the humiliation and awkwardness.

Firstly I will address the extremely immature. How are they? If anything men are more immature at the same age. The guys writing these stupid comments are they trying to date underage girls or something?

 

Secondly if you going to quote something copy the whole point

I’ve been rejected a lot during my single years and it still happens from time to time so most guys, including me, stopped doing it so we could save ourselves the humiliation and awkwardness. Girls get rejected too but it’s not nearly as degrading and terrible as what happens to guys when they get shut down ( sometimes it can just feel that way because of the sudden rush of negative emotion and rejection that comes with it). It’s too abrupt and out of nowhere so at one point you’ll start to expect it without doing really anything. At one point, you’ll start noticing that everything you do is a red flag or that anything is short of a flaw so you figure, what’s the point in trying anymore?

 

 

BOLD + UNDERLINED:
If girls get rejected too why would it be any different for them then what he describes be true for him?

This is the dumbest thing I have read. If anything it be worst  for a woman because they are already body conscience as they are trying to meet expectations set by models in magazines and porn site.

You don't want to pursue a woman
You don't want to work

How can you move forward in life if you standing still?

Bless your heart, I gave up on this thread a while back but I am getting annoyed for you since you are virtually giving it your all

He has said it himself, he still has a child's mentaility to life. 

"I don't want....." is something that children grow out of and parents force out as well.

At the end of the day darklord, your views are wrong and we have proof whereas you don't. You don't want to do anything and therefore you shouldn't expect anything.

You would get fired/dumped the second you got a job/relationship with that attitude so either start wanting to do things or accept the life you have and realise that it's not societies fault, your parents fault or women's fault but your circumstance is down to you and you alone.



Why don't guys pursue women anymore?

When you’re a male and you choose not to pursue women, or at least choose to not do so anymore, the reason for doing so probably depends a lot on your personal situation and where you’re at.

You absolutely could be at a point in your life where you’re really just not available. You might be so busy with what you’re doing that you haven’t got enough hours in the day as it is, and dating is going to be something you just don’t have time for unless it somehow falls right in your lap, and even then trying to fit a date in is going to be troublesome.

If you know that you’re not going to be somewhere for very long, why bother pursuing women there? If you’re going to be moving in a few weeks or a couple months, why not just wait until you get settled in to your next residence, wherever that’ll be?

Waiting until you’re established is valid, especially if you’re in medical school, or in the course of some professional training that keeps you well occupied. You can’t get to know anyone all that well when you’re putting in twelve or more hours a day pursuing a career or the education needed to launch one!

That's great, but none of this applies to you lol.

I am not going to respond to any comments or opinions that I do not agree with! I respectfully disagree!

You take some real chances if you’re going to accomplish anything (relationship wise) as, shall we say, ‘an outsider looking to get in’. If you’re lucky, there will be a handsome payoff. If you’re not lucky, you’re going to be hurt - perhaps very severely - or killed. In this analogy, ‘killed’ means that your reputation is effectively ruined and you will have to move somewhere else and start over from scratch in a new community if you want any kind of normal life after that. Many people who remain around small towns are not very well educated and their social maturity is such that they might as well still be in high school. There’s that saying about how great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss things, and small minds discuss other people… and small cities are full of small minds.

It might be time to leave the little town.



 

 

Why don’t guys pursue women anymore?

Okay, let us have a closer look to what usually happens in “approaching-the-girl” scenario.

If a guy sends friend request, he is desperate.
If a guy sends Hi, he is creep.
If a guy is being polite, he is nice zoned.
If a guy expresses his feelings, he is too dramatic.
If a guy doesn’t expresses his feelings, he is just playing with the girl.
If a guy doesn’t approach the girl second time because she was playing it hard in the first time, he is dumb.
If a guy approaches the girl second time, he is too creepy.
If a guy is good with academics, he is nerd-zoned.
If a guy can’t read her signals, he is stupid.
If a guy does read her signals, he thinks too much and got carried away.
If a guy asks her number, she says she already has a boyfriend.
If he has good looks and physique, the girl is looking for someone more career-oriented not a gym-obsessed.
If a guy is using dating app, he is just looking for a fling.
If a guy approaches a pretty girl, he is going out of his league.
If a guy is an introvert or shy, well, introverts never pursue women. XD
If a guy is extrovert, he is a playboy.
And of course, if a guy is too close to a girl, he is friend-zoned.

The point is there is no point. This approach game has become too confusing and complicated. I understand there are lots of creeps out there who are contributing to the misery of the girl on a daily basis. But because of them, the other good guys also have to apply rocket science and think about some out of the box way to approach them. Not to forget that the possibility of them falling in one of the zone mentioned above is very high.



Lol i read the link already with all the comments. They all are clueless.

I mean you taking advice from a guy named 

Abu Omar al-Qastali

 

As if he is going to have a no warped opinion on women lol.

I see this excuse a lot, and I really wonder how much of it is accurate, or how much of it is just that...an excuse. The fact that we're spending time talking, writing, and debating on a forum dedicated to VIDEO GAMES (a hobby) means that we all have some amount of down time.  If you truly do not have enough hours in the day, I would think that you probably wouldn't have time to game, or at least amass hundreds and thousands of posts on a message board.

I think a lot of people oversell how busy they actually are.
