Search Results: approach him

There's an element of women in our society in the US who think endless compassion is a substitute for common sense. They approach serious situations like children-emotion first, consequences later. In their quest to be so caring, they manage to do more harm than good, putting themselves and the very people they claim to care about in danger.

So I've seen some videos on social media of women fearfully lamenting that men don't approach them, that men these days don't approach women enough, and that feminism has scared them off and ruined dating.

Now, this is the internet, so I know that most of it is either fake or sensational outliers, but I want to know the truth. Is it for real?

Would you want men to approach you? Not just your crushes (this is no fairy tale). It means most guys who approach you are average joes, some are some busted ones, and then you get the occasional charming guy who makes your heart skip a beat. Would you take the deal or leave it?

I would love to hear you share your thoughts in an opinion below!

I had this funny situation come up today, where a woman recognized me in a coffee shop I was sitting in. She came up to say hi and we chatted for a couple minutes before I needed to return to my work. We had a conversation before a month or so ago and we’d gotten on pretty well.

I decided to ask for her number before I left and she shot me down. She had this surprised look on her face and told me she has a fiancé. Apparently she was sitting right beside him at the moment.

Well, he looked as oblivious as she looked surprised. So, obviously the answer I got was no, but given that reaction, I have to wonder if I just caught her off guard and she froze up. I’ve noticed that a lot of women se caught off guard when I make approaches.

Is it just me or do women not expect to be approached?

I remember being a teenager, and just DYING to turn 21. At around 18, I vehemently disliked that the drinking age is 21. I thought to myself, "how are you gonna tell me that I am a legal adult, BUT I can't buy a beer? WTF kind of bullshit is that? Now, I am approaching 35 years old, and my perspective has flipped 180 degrees. Not only do fully understand why someone would want the drinking age 21+, I am actually leaning towards advocating for it to be even older. 18 year olds should not be allowed to legally drink. Period. A 21 year old is honestly not much better. I consider them in the same age group. I see the way people in their early 20's behave all the time, and I am just like, wow... it's ridiculous that we allow people this age range to have access to liquor. I'm sorry, but 18-21 is a KID, and no one will ever convince me otherwise.
