of the few matches I got, most never made the first move even when I extended. and those few who did, would just say hi or hey. yknow, the thing they make fun of men for on tinder or instagram? and of that tiny percentage that said hey, only one actually amounted to anything. and she wasn't even interested in a relationship, just fwb. it was really amusing all things considered. it's not like I expected them to have "game" or "rizz me up". they just.. didn't even try to start a conversation about hobbies or prompts or even a simple compliment lmao.

Honestly the best advice to approaching a man is to just show genuine interest, sometimes guys like me in particular are dense and need your intentions up front so we can open up a little. I find that I'm very straightforward so I'm afraid of scaring women so it's hard to approach them.

[@devinwarren5862]

Same.

[@devinup3981]

Right? Just be nice, care about what he says and does (hopefully he reciprocates this back), and you should be on the right track. And honestly, slip in a compliment every now and then. Do something nice for him. The amount of men who have anyone say or do something nice for them is way too low.

[@aquarioresetter8828]

Dude same. I am normally a very blunt man, and I do not speak the language of "Hints". In fact, the one time I did date a girl, I never initially made a move because I had no idea. Yeah she seemed to join my friend group, and she seemingly did stand near me in conversations, but it never crossed my mind that she was approaching me. She had to get the help of other friends to get my attention. A male friend of mine said "You know she has a massive liking to you." "Well, that makes sense, I normally am wei-" "In a relationship-like way chief." "Oh." Then cut to next month and I eventually sent a 6 haiku poem. We are not dating anymore, but we're still close friends. She is the homie

[@nameunknown5106]

I don't even know if that will work, we never get approached so we think its a setup

Exactly. Show genuine interest and be persistent if he appears confused around you at first. He likely has never had this form of attention before.

[@shrk128]

Two pieces of advice, as a man: Don't be afraid to give men honest complements - that shit burns into permanent memory that not even brain damage can expunge. Do not, under any circumstances, assume he'll "get the hint" - if he did, he would've done something about it. Either he doesn't know, isn't interested, or unsure you're interested. To paraphrase - Keep it simple with the stupid. Jokes aside - being straightforward is likely the best thing you can do; it might be a bit awkward, but straight up telling a guy you like his looks and want his number will give him an ego boost which he will associate with you. YMMV, but that's my take on it, for better or worse.

[@Faliard]

A guy also might get the hint but won't act so as not to come off as awkward or creepy. Moreover, he might not even believe the girl's straightforward confession, instead thinking it's a prank or a joke. I think the guys aren't as stupid as they are afraid now. I personally always assume that all the girls I meet and know are my friends or acquintances and nothing more. Even if I have feelings, I will not confess them and try to get rid of them instead.

[@Fr3k3]

I had a woman one time make zero romantic gestures to me and then tell me a few months later she liked me and was surprised I didn't know. all she did was be nice to me and strike up basic conversation. no playful teasing, no touching, no flirting, nothing. just a smile and a wave. like the same I get from a woman whose shopping cart I accidentally bumped into. it's stuff like that, that makes men second guess every nice interaction they have with women. had she just been direct with me, I would have at least never had to ask myself if every pretty lady that said nice things to me was shooting her shot or just being nice. im not saying women are dumb or are to blame or whatever. just that when it comes to men, it's much more helpful to be direct. we got a decade or more of built up interactions and assumptions that are preventing us from "picking up on your hint"

[@comradeurod9805]

I will attach to OPs comment, women, please dont be upset or misunderstand when, after you confessed your feeling to us, we ask you if you're fucking with us, it is not a rejection, just genuine confusion.

"Sit next to him" works. Well, it works if the guy has spent a few late evenings thinking "wait, was she interested?" Just go easy on the perfume, some of us are allergic 🤧

[@devinup3981]

Legit perfect advice. You like someone? Sit next to them. Say hi. Make it easy for them to notice you and think about you. Even if they didn't already like you, repeated encounters with you make it more likely that they may come around. Don't overdo it, but if you just lurk around in the background without approaching the person, things probably aren't gonna happen.

[@reaganharder1480]

easy on the perfume, but don't ignore it entirely. You don't want someone to be able to smell that you've entered the room, but smells have a way of getting stuck in a brain (or at least mine), so smelling nice when you get close is a pretty solid way to keep them thinking about you.

The only time I was ever approached it was a joke and she and her friends had a big laugh at my expense. All my attempts at approaching end in the worst possible way. I'm like a 4, maybe, so despite my best efforts to change what I wear or get as fit as I can before I want to die, it just hasn't helped any. No amount of ketchup will help this turd. It's been 22 years since I've even been kissed and I'm honestly just tired at this point. Even my Grandmother who was my staunchest supporter said eventually "well some people just don't end up finding anyone". Now I just try to find ways to stay numb and it works for a while but the loneliness comes and goes.

[@landonkam6727]

I know you didn't ask but my honest advice would be friends. They can fulfill a lot of that loneliness and while they won't be able to completely fill the void, they're gonna at the very least be there for you. It's hard to make real ones but even surface level friends will still help you find someone. A lot boils down to luck, but at the end of the day all a romantic partner is is a friend with extras. I'm not saying to give up or you'll never find love so just find friends, but friends can not only help you feel less lonely, but they can help you find love. Try to shine with your personality, and be a kind person, those things are what people looking for love and connection are looking out for in a partner and they never fade like looks do. I don't know you personally but I truly hope you find someone good for you and you're happy together.

I remember when I was in high school this girl in my gym class was crying and I went over to make sure she was ok. She got pissed and yelled at me that I wasn’t even her friend. We had spoke a few times before this and I thought we were on good terms but apparently not. All conversations in the gym stopped and everyone started staring at me. Some time after this I was walking with a group of friends and this girl was crying on the sidewalk. I wanted to go over but decided against it to avoid a repeat of the past situation.

[@etrangray-mane8610]

I think there's two reasons the list brings up widowers specifically. One, the man was clearly good enough to get married already. Second, back then it was more likely for a man to be married "til death did they part." Nowadays it's "til he lost some of his bad boy traits, had to get a lower paying job because he got fired, or he opened up about his childhood trauma."

[@HirokiPlays]

One time I was grabbing a 6 pack from the liquor store in a shopping plaza, and in the parking lot next to my car, there was a girl in her car crying. I felt so bad for her... Every fiber of my being screamed at me to ask her if she was ok, needed something, or maybe wanted to share some beers and talk things out. I stopped in my tracks for literally a split second, and my counter thought to my instincts was "I have no business with this woman, I'm a stranger to her, and I'll definitely be considered a fucking creep" so I instead completely ignored her and drove off. This was years ago, I don't even drink anymore, and yet I still think about that. Ladies, want advice to get in a relationship with me? Ask me to. It's not guaranteed that I'll agree, but your chances are much higher than you think... I haven't approached a woman in years, and at this rate, I don't know if I ever will... I feel like I'm living in a bizarre world where it's elementary school rules. Girls are scary, boys are yucky, and no one wants cooties.

[@swallace7447]

Ouch, been there. Your best bet is to go to large group activities doung something you like where people are expected to socialize so you won't feel like a creep if you appeoach a woman. Around here there is an organization called Events and Adventures where singke people do stiff like white water rafting or go to museums so the preasure is lower and you meet people interested in simular things at an event for singke mingling.

[@ColbyAzimuth]

I've never heard a women say something nice about a man who approached her, but I've heard complaints more than 400 times. So, yeah. You are absolutely correct to ignore women everywhere. They are not mentally capable of saying something nice. The actual communication done by actual people consists of women putting men down, hundreds of times. So respect the reality and go build a nice life for yourself without the social violence. Women blame the creative active healthy people for being creative active and healthy. There are much friendlier relationships and genuine connections available at the animal shelter, just by taking a dog for a walk. Bring a frisbee and have a truly delightful afternoon getting great exercise exploring the world with a dog. A helluva lot more rewarding than hostile shallow insecure incapable women.

[@Virjunior01]

I think the weird widower focus from back then comes from the fact that no "good man" would have not been married by their 30s back then. There was basically no chance of finding an unmarried man who was considered good husband material in certain age brackets. Then there were higher mortality rates and barely existing divorce rates as well. So widowers were basically the most common "good husband material who are just single due to bad luck" of the 50s.

Occasionally touching him on his arms/hands 2. Sitting/standing close to him that your shoulders touch 3. Small talks about his life or things that he likes 4. Give him small gifts/wish him happy birthdays or other special days(if he starts returning the favor, he's starting to be conscious of you, so just keep it up) 5. If yall is hanging around with friends/coworkers/other people and the chance arise, say things about how you don't hate the idea of going out with him 6. If you notice the guy starts interacting and joking around with you more, and you see him starts glancing at you more, that means he's totally interested in you. 7. Now, he'll be the one who'll ask you out, but for men who is slightly introverted, you're the one who should do it.

[@hehahehahehahehaheha]

giga relatable

[@Naoto-kun1085]

I feel like the issue is that if a man thinks a woman is into him, he suddenly will go into full flirtatious casanova mode and views her only as a love interest, and that this approach is often encouraged by men on the internet. Meanwhile, it's much better to wait and allow things to progress naturally, because unless a woman is looking for a hook up, a lot of women prefer to take things slow and not rush into romance. And a second thing is that men often don't take rejection well, and not many men on the internet encourage healthy behavior in reaction to rejection. But this is all to say, I think the real root of issues is that men are too reliant on the advice of dating gurus and dating journals. If you obsess over what the internet tells you are the signs a woman is into you, or signs that a woman is uninterested, then you will close more doors than you open. What dating journals won't tell you is that women are as diverse and complex as men, and that no dating advice will ever be able to generalize all women. Instead, build connections and focus on improving yourself. If you want a woman to ask you out, then focus on building a beautiful garden and the butterflies will come to you. But if you want to be the one to make the first move, then stop overthinking it and worrying about what the dating gurus are telling you, do what you feel is natural and will make you happy! Dating isn't an algebra, it's about building a romantic connection that will affect your entire life!

"You know who never has in-law trouble? Single people!" You know who never drowns? People without lungs!

[@Anvilshock]

This. Though, ackchyually, what makes drowning fatal is (primarily) anoxia, the cessation of oxygenation of the blood as the dedicated organ (the lungs) becomes incompatible with the newly available medium (water). Which is still an oxygen carrier as every fish could confirm. Likewise, a fish has no lungs, yet switching the medium water for one is incompatible with the gills it has instead, blood oxygenation stops again. So, in the ackchyually sense, lungs aren't required for drowning.

lucky for that guy I suck at flirting.

[@blacksheepwall79]

I worked at Amazon. On thanksgiving one of my female coworkers, without prompting of any kind, brought me a plate of food from the buffet they had set up. When she would tap you on your back to get your attention, instead of tapping she drew little circles on your back. She was a doll. Edit: This comment blew up. This happened 6 years ago. I'm not oblivious to flirtation or I wouldn't have posted this. HR exists though.

[@drjukebox3882]

Draw circles with her nipples?

[@aduroatrox]

Aw, that's so cute!

[@sgnMark]

Normally I would say if a chick brings you food for no reason, she's into you. But it was thanksgiving. Be thankful goddamit.

´´I feel protected around you´´ that line alone will give men a testosterone boost

[@elocxv]

If you’re focusing on testosterone, it’s already over

[@mysticpumpkin8520]

Oh 100%. It will give a man the power to bent metal just to protect that special someone

[@tgr5588]

Not when you know she just says this to get you to do something and she says it on purpose to manipulate you. My ex was like this. She admitted at some point she says these sweet things because it makes me do things for her

[@LordVader1094]

@@tgr5588 That's the sad part: women who really know how men tick can manipulate. But some are good, and won't use that power against you but instead to build you up and motivate you.

Says it to the scrawny weak unfit boyfriend They're just like "please don't get in a situation where I would have to protect you"

More videos please! I miss your new fresh content!

Sensible and so very entertaining. A rare combination these days! 🙂.

[@colinsmith1495]

I love how the author's advice rapidly descends from 'This might be a good idea, maybe, if I like it' to 'DO THE EXACT OPPOSITE IN A WAY THAT WILL GUARANTEE NO ONE WANTS TO BE NEAR YOU!!' She WANTS to be alone, so that she can feel 'empowered'.

[@captainkaizo3824]

Back then, they used to defend child marriages and polygamy, in the name protection and provider. They called it female empowerment. Alone is about female empowerment or at least staying with their girlfriends.

[@tastysnacks8094]

My guess is she doesn't want to be alone, but can't be arsed with reflection and self-improvement. So she tells others and herself it's on purpose and the best thing ever, only occasionally crying herself to sleep over a tub of coffee flavored ice cream.

[@vizzo1138]

Women keep women single. Misery loves company. Crabs in a bucket. etc etc etc All of their advice is garbage too. You're perfect the way you are, you're a 10/10 honey. A womans worst enemy are other women. Meanwhile on the other end with men. You're worthless, make something of yourself.

[@zeriel9148]

That, or she wants to give bad advice to other women so she has less competition. This is one of the most basic forms of female mating strategies.

[@kukquakk4716]

@@tastysnacks8094yeah while watching the video it occurred to me that that journalist is just coping really really hard

[@Crazy_Bomb]

Yeah, the "feel so protected" thing works. You say that to me you basically have a bodyguard for the rest of the day.

[@rostschweifvomchaosclan]

Protected from what tho? Is it a American thing, cause over there everyone can shoot you down or why protection? I don't get it

[@petrol_prophet]

true. men love a woman who will let them be masculine. we want to do it, it's in our DNA. We can feel our ancestors smiling on us while we do it. women today think it's good to say they "don't need men". Tf, okay, I guess I'll see myself out then. Bro, we WANT to be needed. It's a d*mn good feeling.

I have a confession to make, June: I was testing the waters about your content, but ever since watching that video about male loneliness, I thought I would give you a chance. And I was not disappointed. Oh btw, congratulations on your marriage, Shoe! Please send my regards to your husband! -- Ian
