Search Results: he wants to take it really slow

I keep reading eveywhere that you gotta move fast, you gotta escalate, you can't let a girl lose interest or get bored or she's jumping to the next dude... these days if a guy waits a week to ask a girl out he's being too slow and she just moves on... like really? is that a thing?

I didn't know guys were entertainers or circuss workers i thought we as guys approach women we like, build some rapport and ask them out to get to know them, I hear from so many men online and offline that women that were throwing themselves at them lost interest a week later and kinda flaked on them or didn't go out with them... and all i can think of is really? do women do that? do women have a time frame in their head and if the guy takes a day longer than they want him to he's not longer good?

How can guys ever take women seriously with all these rules, especially when women have no idea what goes through guys head talking to them, the rejection, the embarassment, the sexual harrasment accusations if you hit on the wrong chick... and in addition to all that if you take your time to not be creepy or annoying she loses interest.

All i want to know is : is it real or do women say this to hide the fact that they never liked said guy?
