Search Results: confidence with women

Take two hypothetical people, for example.

The first guy literally lives in his parent's basement in his thirties and has never moved out of the house before. He's tall (6'2", 6'3"), has a long nose, and skinny. He barely passed high school and has no college degree. He works part-time at a Walmart as a cashier, but his "main source of income" is doing online gaming streams to a medium-sized audience who donates just to mock him.

He's a virgin who has never kissed a woman before, but is sure he knows 'what all women want' in a guy and acts like a perpetual Nice Guy. He's a male feminist and unironically uses terms like "toxic masculinity." He's a "proud simp" and uses OnlyFans. He's also a proud atheist. He owns one or more cats and is proud of that, including wearing cat sweaters. He's a smug, arrogant, juvenile person who believes he's very smart and has life figured out. He has an excessive amount of ego (confidence) and believes he's the epitome of what all modern men should be.

The second guy lives on his own, by himself, in a nice top-floor apartment. He's short, and has a "dad bod." He grew up poor and lower-class and worked his way up out of poverty over time. He has a graduate degree from a well-known university and is highly intelligent and hard-working. He works a respectable career helping people daily, and has plenty of money saved up. He doesn't spend his money that much, and instead, invests it saves it, or uses it for self-improvement.

He's currently single, but has been in previous relationships with women before. He's not a simp. He's apolitical and dislikes most politics. He's agnostic and doesn't think about religion much. He's a nice, respectable person, but doesn't take abuse or bullying from others. He has a low amount of ego (confidence) because he feels like an underachiever compared to those around him, had a slow start in life, and is not yet quite "rich" or "wealthy."

Which guy do you think has a better mindset?

I was having a conversation with my friends and one guy said “women get creeped out if you hit them up in public. Unless you are a 9/10 or higher then you shouldn’t approach them because they’ll get creeped out. You should only flirt with them or hit them up online such as Snapchat or tinder so you don’t ruin your confidence.”

Is that dude right? He is actually the smartest from the group. Does the most reading. We always go to him for advice.

This post was inspired by this question here. I already have my own ideas on it, but thought it'd make for a fun GAG question.

Ego ("confidence"), height & looks, and social status (money/career/success/popularity) are the three things most straight women want in an ideal man, and some even require them. All three of these things combined, makes the "perfect man." How "low" a modern heterosexual woman is willing to go or downgrade on, depends on the woman, but you can usually only lack one of them to still have a shot. Lack more than one and you're completely SOL.

So men of GAG, I ask you this:
Which of these do you think a woman is most likely to tolerate in a flawed imperfect man?

Whereas men realise they have to put in the work. Build confidence, get in shape, make money.

Women believe they just should land themselves a guy who has money, is tall and handsome etc.

Type 1: Mild Female Control

In this type of FLR, the woman has low authority, and all the decisions are taken mutually by the man and the woman. The man allows his partner to take the lead in specific scenarios and, sometimes, she needs the permission of the man to make a decision.

Type 2: Moderate Female Control

At this FLR level, the female can enjoy being a leader for a while and has a sense of ruling the man. It helps boost her confidence and morale and makes the relationship more positive. The man also often enjoys the dominant attitude of the woman. At this level, the woman usually takes the day-to-day decisions, but she also sets boundaries regarding how far she is willing to go.

Type 3: High Female Control

In this type of female-led relationship, the woman makes most decisions and takes on the male roles too. The areas where she can be dominant are defined to ensure there is a demarcation.

Type 4: Extreme Female Control

Here there is extreme control by the woman and servitude by the man. This relationship is for women who like to have the ultimate power in the relationship.
