threebyfate Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Well you are the one who used the word "in demand". That is essentially classifying people into levels.No. "in demand" could easily be people with positive attitudes towards dating. Who wants someone who's always negative?
mesmerized Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 No. "in demand" could easily be people with positive attitudes towards dating. Who wants someone who's always negative? So in an attempt to "amend" your first sentence, you just wrapped it in some vague term even though to you it still means the same thing.

Crusoe Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Call me crazy, but I get a kind of thrill nowadays out of not knowing. It makes seduction and romance that little bit more fun . I wish that could rub off on some of you, but hey..... "Rubbing off" on strangers is neither seductive or romantic, just plain crazy. 3
Author El Brujo Posted August 11, 2012 Author Posted August 11, 2012 Would it be as fun or sexy or gratifying if it was completely guaranteed or highly probable? It would to me! When I pay the piper, I expect to be allowed to dance. So far I've been paying and nobody will let me on the dance floor. 1
Failboy Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 must be nice. Pretty much Guys like us can't even imagine such a thing. Imagine the main annoyance of dating would be that you have too many requests and don't know how to juggle them. Or that you have so many great suitors that you don't know who might be the one to take the next step with. How absurd that would be. For some women that is reality.
mario_C Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 KCM, what I said about therapy. I'm very serious, dude. Anyway, hope you negative people have fun jerking off with your sex dolls and vibrators. More chances for me! I refuse to give up and marry my pillow (sorry, TMI? ) and I refuse to sit on my thumb and let that girl I have a crush on feel unloved and unlovable*. That's wrong. *if in fact she does...
Tree_Salmon Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 My God... 90% of the people on here are socially awkward, do not have a clue how to date now or have ZERO self-esteem, self-worth and confidence. Now you are asking these same people to think about and imagine how bad it will be for them in the future? I suspect we will lose some of the regular "blamers" / "complainers" due to suicide after reading this thread. The only man making a real point. You're future is only as bleak as you make it.
Author El Brujo Posted August 12, 2012 Author Posted August 12, 2012 You're future is only as bleak as you make it. It won't be bleak at all for the PUAs... they'll have the field all to themselves. They'll feel like they've died and gone to heaven.
joystickd Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 It won't be bleak at all for the PUAs... they'll have the field all to themselves. They'll feel like they've died and gone to heaven. Actually not I believe the form of PUA we see now will die in the next 10-20 years. It will evolve into full on dating coaches that are more focused on improving the inner person than NLP, reading books like Sperm Wars, or using scripted lines. Also I think double standard will eventually be not so common but that means women will have to do some approaching for that to happen. 1
Author El Brujo Posted August 12, 2012 Author Posted August 12, 2012 Also I think double standard will eventually be not so common but that means women will have to do some approaching for that to happen. Double standards are like stereotypes... they die hard. But women doing some approaching??? The people who invented OLD were counting on that, but it didn't happen. It's just not possible to change that kind of behavior in only 20 years or so. Besides, how would YOU feel about some woman you didn't find the least bit attractive, coming over to you in some social setting, and saying "hey, sailor"? Dunno about you, but that's not what I want.

Dunno about you, but that's not what I want. On that same note women don't want some creepy guy going up to them initiating conversation but it happens. They want equality and no gender roles well they have to accept that they will have to pursue at some point. A closed mouth don't get fed. OLD will change once you get the easy people off of it and that will be the same in the real world. We have to check our own gender. I mean you can't blame the opposite sex all the time for golddiggers and players you have to accept that someone in your own gender played a role in this.

I know men who say they don't need to approach women because they're always approached by them.
Necris Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 Would it be as fun or sexy or gratifying if it was completely guaranteed or highly probable? Absolutely its far better than the alternative of not knowing, in my experience not knowing means 100% chance of rejection. Call me crazy, but I get a kind of thrill nowadays out of not knowing. It makes seduction and romance that little bit more fun . I wish that could rub off on some of you, but hey..... I can't understand why how is that more thrilling? I also have no idea how this whole seduction/romance thing works but hey...

I know men who say they don't need to approach women because they're always approached by them. This is true I personally know some guys who never approach women they let women approach them wherever they go women are always hitting on them, I don't get that at all but that's extremely rare for men like myself that will almost certainly never happen so we have to always do the approaching I have never had a woman flirt with me or anything close to that.
MaxNoob Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Anyway, hope you negative people have fun jerking off with your sex dolls and vibrators. Sex dolls and vibrators get too much of a bad rap. I'm reminded of Leon in The Professional, talking about how his plant is nicer than people. "You love your plant, don't you?" "It's my best friend. Always happy. No questions."
MaxNoob Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Your life might be filled with company or it might be very solitary, but you would hope that either way it would be an authentic life that involves learning, facing and overcoming challenges (or finding out new things about yourself, other people and the world from your failure to overcome them). Surely it would be better to be alone completely and be honest about what that means, than to hide from the truth with the assistance of some mechanical doll. Unless the person who feels that way is little more than a mechanical doll themselves, I suppose. I missed your comment earlier. What would be more authentic: 1) Preferring to live with an android instead of living alone, despite the scorn of others. or 2) Living a life that others expect of you The most common regret people have before they die is: I wish I lived a life that was true to myself instead of what others expected of me. Here's the concept of an android I was thinking of, not really a mechanical doll: Quantic Dream's Kara - YouTube
