Thoughts on dating

Human equivalent: a Rolex watch.

Human equivalent: erecting your spine and rising up your shoulders to show how tall you are... or just lying about being 6 feet tall in your Tinder bio and hoping she doesn't notice your elevator shoes on the date.

Human equivalent: cat calling girls on the street? Hmm... ?

But yea, definitely men should not stink; take regular showers, get odorless antiperspirant and put a sweatproof undershirt under your normal shirt. Also get some basic perfume, like Molecule 02 or something, it's pretty cheap but decent—none of that Old Spice deodorant nonsense, that cheap smell should be left to highschoolers! And don't bathe in your perfume; one spray behind your ears and one on each collar bone is enough.
And take care of your nails and cuticles, your nails should be clean and cuticles manicured and moist, dry looking ones are gross; I don't cut my cuticles, I just use a tool to push them back once a week and moisturize them once a day in the morning, that's all it takes—you can't fucking fathom how much woman pay attention to your nails!

I'm by no means a lady man, but man, I've seen some grown ass adult men who probably don't even take a shower every day and wear the same sweaty tshirt more than once! Just smell it, not too bad, wear it again—wtf—no! And forget women and dating, people who you might want to have as friends or business acquaintances notice it too, your potential employers notice this at the job interview, your community members at the church notice it, etc—nobody wants to be associated with a gross guy, but if you are above average groomed people will have positive prejudice about you from the get go.

 

Just remember, Chad and Tyrone didnt have to take her out on a " date". Just the betamale that allowed himself to get used as a foodie call.

 

You'd think that all of this is common sense, but you'd be surprised to observe just how little some people care about personal hygiene and their overall appearance. At one point when I was younger, my Dad pulled me aside and asked me if I had seen myself in the mirror on account of how disheveled I looked. That was a much needed slap on the wrist and I'd like to think that I've made great strides since then.

 

It should be common sense, shouldn't it? I think generally fathers teach their sons about proper hygiene, the dynamic between mother and son is different, so it's harder to do. The problem is that these days we have an epidemic where a lot of boys grow up with single mothers, where father is not present, so there is a deficiency there. And as a result we have grown men who walk around without having full set of skills.

 

I decided to try online dating too after a friend of mine met his gf online. Wish me good luck!

 

RIP

 

In my experience it was always the moms, certainly my dad never taught me anything about looking good

 

He's gone bro, F.

Why a lot of people think online dating works I'll never know, but then again there's BS that happens in the real-time dating scene too.

 

The same reason we think porn will work...

 

Because for some people it does work!!! One of my old friends met someone via online dating and got married. Just because it doesn't work for some people doesn't mean it doesn't work at all.

 

Yeah...and when we aren't addicts, it's not the end of the world anymore when people don't want to have sex with us. Imagine!

 

You're right it's not the end of the world. There are worse things like being in an abusive relationship. I remember hearing this story on the radio about a man who was in a relationship with a woman who would act violently towards him. He was brought up with the idea that a man should never hit a woman so he never defended himself from the violence and he was embarrassed that his girlfriend was beating him up that he never told anyone. It was only when a concerned neighbour called the police that it stopped.

 

I might make an online dating account.

 

I do agree that online dating works sometimes however I dont agree how you end up to that conclusion "One of my old friends met someone via online dating and got married". Getting married doesnt mean anything, I know lot of unhappy marriages..

 

As far as I know, they are still happily married. And it isn't like everyone who meets on dating sites gets divorced and everyone who meets irl remains happily married.
