Polls: Dating

Let’s say she starts off as a pretty girl always single (everyone has a boyfriend while she’s in HS) then transitions into her being in her late twenties and realized nothings changed. Those former friends are now married and she’s still…well single. Is it a reflection of her? The dating pool? I know it’s a case by case kind of thing but is it assumed it’s her choice vs lack of options? Or just bad luck on her side? Asking for a friend 🥴. I always assumed relationships would happen naturally & I don’t feel desperate enough to make it feel forced with any person that comes my way. Where I’m going with this: is she likely not pretty if she’s always single?

PS-not being conceited in saying I think I’m *attractive*, going based off feedback I’ve gotten.

For me high school was not that Long ago, and I remember having this crush. I would always dress up and go out of my way to draw this person's attention, heck my one friend suggested that I cut my hair, which I didn't want to do.. despite this I did get noticed, but by guys I wasn't into. The person I liked however liked other girls that were at the Time competing for his attention. And they were far prettier than me. In senior year, I gave up and unleashed my Tomboy side and I attracted unwanted attention..

Like why do we always wait for him to make the first move?

Just saw a post where someone was asking about persistence. Whether persistence is a typical behavior or not typical in certain people when interest exist, or if it even an indication of interest itself as apposed to simply desperation…

and so now I’m wondering what people think persistence is. If there is a communion agreement in what that means, or if there’s a huge variation in how we define it.

so what would you all call persistence towards a person of personal interest?

Let’s put it in terms of asking them out because That’s a pretty basic common denominator form of showing interest, and I only have one pole to use.

I accidentally put the poll options in a strange order, so make sure to read all of them before answering. A-F.

thanks!!

And yes I understand this is a fake movie but maybe it's a bit telling in a way of society that women would choose to love a ugly man yet when thinking about it in reverse tho I don't think the story would be the same or even make sense. Like men can be shallow when it comes to choosing women based of looks. Not even giving a ugly woman a chance...

Why should men take a women out on several dates, spend so much money and time only for some of them to reject them in the end? They took the woman out so many times but no sex. Also includes staying bad relationships and marriage just to have sex

With pr0stitutes, you bang and leave. Saves you a lot of money rather than dealing with the entire dating process and have her reject you. This is why I think it should be legal - even to advertise services should be legal.

She takes the money beforehand and provides the service.

I’m a woman and I’ve had men take me out on several dates costing a lot of money as I thought they were serious about me.
But when they say something inappropriate that’s when I realise they are just after sex and I stop talking to them.
