    I used to think that boys got it hard. Hell no. It's not always like that.
    YES! Women do get more attention, but it does not mean they get a boyfriend because of it.
    I get attention from women. But not that I want to be with them. I have different standarts etc.

    No, if we are talking about me, I am looking for a long-term relationship.

    What the hell? You seem to not have read any part of the thread.
     
  5. So you acknowledge the fact that women have it just as hard as men to find love but, somehow, it occured to you to make a thread in the name of all the other guys - definitely not you - to complain that women can get sex more easily than men? Yeah, no. You are either a troll or just confused as hell. Either way this is a waste of time. I hope you will find what you're looking for.

    I always mentioned that women have it easier on both ends. The thread is not about sex. Yes, I am confused I don't deny it. I am very confused when it comes to women. I hope so too but with this luck, I feel like I am never going to find anyone. I got rejected today as well.

    I did in fact read all pages, but I didn't bother to respond to anyone in particular and get in a long boring conversation that ends up becoming an argument on website that is dedicated to porn recovery, because all it takes to get a girlfriend is effort, it's simple.

    I wish it was effort only, I lived in places where there were many people to talk with. I also attended many events and approached girls outside on the streets and parties. I get a lot of attention but when I start to talk with them it turns them off.

    Out of curiosity: what type of stuff do you usually discuss with girls?

    Effort is not one thing, what I was referring to is that, everything that takes effort is probably gonna help you achieve what you want

    yes some people have it easy, perfect skin tone, perfect hair and eye color, basically the winning genetics, but even those struggle with getting into a long healthy sustainable relationship, if that is what you're looking for

    I know a friend of mine who is trying to get married, he isn't so great with girls and his attitude toward life is basically trash, but you know what? he is putting effort, and reaching out asking different families for the girl he wants, not on tinder, not on social media, but in real life
    and if doesn't give up, he'll find her

    because as long as you believe you can, you can
     
  12. I agree with you for the most part. I think it's also important to note that effort doesn't just mean making effort in your approach of women, but also effort to better yourself, work on your confidence, self esteem, etc, because all of those things are factors as well.

  13. I'm kind of confused by this statement. I understand that maybe you tend to see more guys who are single and more women in relationships, but it's also important to note that unless those women are gay and dating other women, there would be an equal number of men and women in relationships... right? I mean, if those women are in relationships with men, then if you're saying a lot of women are in relationships, then a lot of men are also in relationships... with those women... right? Maybe you aren't friends with those men, so you don't know them personally, but obviously they exist and they are in a relationship. Anytime you see a straight woman who is in a relationship and you mentally file that away as another tally in the "women in relationships" column of your brain, there should also be a tally in the "men in relationships" column, right?
     
  14. And also, of course everyone needs to keep in mind that people are human beings with their own lives and preferences and goals. Bettering your "approach" of women doesn't automatically mean you're going to score a lady, because that lady might just not be interested in you, for a variety of reasons. Heck, she might not even be interested in a relationship at all, for a variety of reasons.

    That's one of the things I find irritating about pick-up artist culture. There is this assumption that if you just master the craft and art of picking up a woman, you'll be successful. But that's making a huge assumption that women are out there just waiting to be picked up. And that's definitely not the case a lot of the time.

    Effort is important, but it is also important not to forget to lift your head up and look around at what are you putting effort into. For example, a ceo and a supermarket worker might put the same amount of effort but their return will be drastically different.

    That is true, I just have no options to dislike right now. But, I should know what I don't like exactly and what I like to go for the right ones and to keep my frame.

    It is not easy to score a lady until you are very well rounded guy.

    I see what you mean, like guys shouldn't disturb girls on every ocasion. But pickup works, that is why guys try to master it. In my experience women change their opinion very quickly and often. So, it depends on many things wether it is a good time to aproach or not. But, in my opinion it is better to take chances in many case than not.
     
  19. Well yeah, of course. I wasn't saying to give up or something. I'm just saying it's important to remember that women are human beings who have their own preferences and interests too, so no matter how good you are at speaking to women or "picking them up," some just aren't going to be interested because they aren't interested.
