Why do calm, low-pressure quiet guys always seem to finish last?

Why do low-pressure, calm and quiet guys finishes last?

[ElenaLena]

That’s not true… at least not for me..
One of the things that draws me to a guy is being gentle, calm, and able to control his emotions… I find that really attractive because it shows maturity and confidence…I’d much rather have a calm man who knows how to communicate and handle things than someone who’s aggressive or always trying to prove himself or loses his temper.. honestly, that would make me more intrigued by him…

My guess, and this is only a guess, is they aren't as "seen" as more outgoing guys.

Coming first isn't everything 🥇
I prefer silver anyhow 🥈
Silver really means more to me than gold. Shinier and more and cheaper

Ty for the mho!

Is the guy low pressure, calm, and quiet because he's confident and doesn't need to perform for attention? Does he move through a room like he owns it?

Or is he low pressure, calm, and quiet because he's insecure and unable to approach or carry a conversation? Does he shrink in a space and avoid eye contact with other people?

Guy #1 generates curiosity, interest, and respect from women.

Guy #2 generates a pity response and avoidance from women.

Which one do you think they'll choose 99% of the time?

This stuff isn't hard to understand.

Is it some kind of competition where women are the prize? That's not a healthy way to look at dating. Maybe you just meant why do they not seem to do well in life in general? If so, what makes you think that? There are plenty of guys who meet that description that are doing fine in life.

I honestly don't know how to decode the language. But... if 'calm, low-pressure quiet' means 'shy and inert' then it's because they are shy and inert. To get more of what you want you need to put yourself forward and put it all on the line, sometimes.

Or maybe I have parsed your question completely incorrectly. English is like that.

[Iron_Man]

Because they’re very shy people and you don’t get ahead in business or with the girls like that. But they are good for fist fights because the quiet man in the bar is the most scariest man in the bar

[queenofcardio]

They're my type but sometimes I don't notice them especially if they're extremely shy.

[AngryCarl3]

That hasn't been my experience. Not if they have focus.

[AngryCarl3]

Of course if you sit and stare at food all day like the guy in the picture it's less about finishing last, more about never getting started.

because nobody notices you?
