Does dating feel like a circus act where you have to keep the woman entertained constantly?

It’s true you always gotta come up with everything while she does nothing but just shows up

To me? No. If you have to “win” someone over or they become unimpressed the chances of them liking you are slim or if you make someone fall for a image that you won’t be able to keep up forever…

If someone’s invested in you. You won’t have to impress someone all the time or take them to the finest place in town… Just to be dumped later on and you see her going out for a walk at the park or a coffee date with another man…. Why? Because she wasn’t really invested or interested in you. Only what you were doing for her. Fancy free dinners is a steal of a deal.

Not all women will use men like that most will just leave relationships with men they aren’t attracted to. Not all people are meant to be.

Funny, I was asking a friend a similar question this evening.

If it feels like a circus then you're not with the right girl. Your role isn't to entertain the one person. Your role is to have an enjoyable evening out together. If one or both of you feels like you're forcing things then don't continue.

When it comes to dating, who is the burden of performance placed on generally speaking, men or women?

[Zack-Bann]

No.
And if it feels like that it means you’re doing it wrong


When a woman falls for your character she will be unable to explain why she’s with you


Hell some men abuse and beat their women and the women stay


Because they are hooked by the person and not the activities he brings


If all you are is a dancing monkey then yes she will continue to expect the circus act
Because when you stop it you’re no longer anyone she might care about


So best to lead with personality and character when first meeting a woman


If it’s not enough for her she’s not the one anyway

Try acting like an adult.

You sound like a 14-year-old and not an intelligent one either. Men are so juvenile until they are at least 30, so it is sad you are still peddling this childish nonsense at your age.

Ouch... funny... but ouch...😂

[Asker]

Ad hominem. Didn't see that coming 😃

[slatyb]

Not to me. It feels like a conversation, not a performance. Either you have the wrong idea about dating, or you are dating the wrong women. I have a guess about which it is.

[Chayce]

LOL, maybe if you're dating someone in Miami.

[queenofcardio]

I know how to have a good time alone

[Twodogs0525]

That's why I get drunk before a date.

Date men then. Or stay single.

Women need to stop acting like children
