Is it true that some men just don’t feel ready for their dream woman but will date other women?

[Anonymous]

This is what my guy best friend told me to cheer me up when I was crying about my crush who for some reason rejected me even though all the signs of him liking me were there. Is this true or is this just a myth? Do men really shy away from their crush but date other women because they feel like they are not enough for her at that time?

Can be true

Most likely not true

Yes that's very true
I had this huge crush on a girl junior to me in college.. she was literally the girl of my dreams in terms of looks and everything.. just perfect

But even though she gave me signs back I never made a move because my life was messed up.. I don't wanna give her a hard time

But would you have dated other women at that time?

[Opinion Owner]

Nope
The guy you're taling about of course "does" not seem ready
Maybe he considers you perfect but he's insecure and thinks he's far from perfect

It's true. You don't want to be in a serious relationship until you've got your shit together. Timing has to be right

[Asker]

But in this case you wouldn’t mess with other women right?

[BonzoInBitburg]

I wouldn't but I'm probably in the minority

Sounds absolutely weird to me. Getting ready how? Reading a handbook? 🙄😬

Progressing in their career, acquiring wealth, getting more fit physically

I have this buy see it as just a excuse for ne somthing had to of turned him off

[OddBeMe]

I would argue both genders potentially have ignored perfectly great mates simply for idiotic reasons. Like boob size, or hair style, or the just swiped right automatically.

Most things you have heard about Shy Guys is true, Shy Guys have literally killed themselves.

yes can be true

[jahaims]

A guy isn't going to reject his crush

[Asker]

He did, then 2 years later he comes back, talks about me to his friend and tries to approach me 2 times
