Haydn Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 Probably just a pair of `matronly` breasts. (Which can be lethal in the wrong hands) I promise that much of the time it is not wisdom...
Weezy1973 Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 Right so it's not that guys like Scorp and SD aren't attracted to women who are dressed up, it's that they are intimidated by them. That's a big difference. For me, I'm not intimidated, it's just that I suspect they're high maintenance. I've heard women describe men as "douche bags" without actually knowing them and based solely on how they present themselves. I suspect it's a similar dynamic. 1

Haydn Posted July 19, 2014 Posted July 19, 2014 Being a Brit means huge doses of irony. Nothing to follow. 2
Bruce Leigh Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 it's because they have learned that standing in the corner never asking the pretty girl to dance accomplished nothing. Better to take command of the situation. Ha ha, i will ask women do they want to dance but i am usually already dancing and get "asked" if i want to dance with them.
Mr Scorpio Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 Right so it's not that guys like Scorp and SD aren't attracted to women who are dressed up, it's that they are intimidated by them. That's a big difference. I don't know if intimidation is the right word for it. You could stick me in a room with Miranda Kerr and I could carry on a conversation just fine. Rather, I'm assuming that the gal in the dress isn't going to be interested in me (because I'm probably not dressed to impress) and -- based on likely incorrect generalizations -- I'm not going to be interested in her beyond visuals. I think of it as the reverse of the assumptions that the dolled-up girl might make about me when she sees me in jeans and a t-shirt with no product in my hair and no polish on my shoes.
Woggle Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 This is why we women are attracted to respectful confident men. They are the opposite to Woggle. They go after what they want ( me) without worrying about rejection. They just brush it off without the fretting. As for 'older' men. Yes, they are wiser...this is is why they tend to be more assertive and take the initiative. They have learned, again, that confidence is a big plus. It is not that they 'don't care'...it's because they have learned that standing in the corner never asking the pretty girl to dance accomplished nothing. Better to take command of the situation. As my father used to say. Better to go down swinging than looking at a called third strike. It's not that i'm not confident but when I was single and having a good day why ruin it by potentially having to deal with that. The funny is I have approached many women and have never been harshly rejected. Also I would rather have a more down to earth woman than one who was dressed up in designer clothes like it was some fashion shoot. It's not that I am intimidated by somebody like that but high fashion types and me do not mix. 1

It's not that I am intimidated by somebody like that but high fashion types and me do not mix. I agree. There's nothing wrong with girls who dress well, but it's easy to spot the classless, insecure superficial girls from the classy ones just from the way they behave. Sometimes they just buy things for the sake of buying it (i.e they REALLY love spending money trying to look good) even though the clothes clearly doesn't suit them. I actually prefer seeing girls without make-up and with casual clothes before asking them out. It might seem harsh, but you might not like to see their face or even their body once they shed those expensive clothes, heals and tons of make-up. A girl has to have natural beauty, if they look good without make up and the latest fashion accessories, chances are that they will be mind-blowingly beautiful once they actually have those things. I still remember asking a girl out who wasn't wearing any make up and she had a hoodie on, she had pure natural beauty but my friends couldn't see that. They were just saying things like "she's hasn't done her hair properly, her clothes aren't nice, she's not wearing make up so she doesn't care about her looks, we can't even see her legs, her jeans aren't tight enough etc. etc." I just said to them "she's in a friggin' library, why would she dress up for reading books, it doesn't make sense and I've seen her up close, she's stunning". Well, long story short, she dressed up on our second date, I took a picture of her and showed it to my friends. They were shocked at her beauty and quite jealous.
Giggle Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 I pretty much never get hit on. I was really really shy.. And had kids with me all the time, but nope =o) I still don't.
Imported Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 . As my father used to say. Better to go down swinging than looking at a called third strike. Not a very good anaolgy....or maybe it is. That "third strike" could be a ball. You need to know what the **** you're dealing with. However, taking a swing and missing is diffinitely a strike. You swing at the stuff worth swinging at and you need to be able to judge that for yourself. It is idiotic to take a swing just because. When I come up to a girl, what I know is I have value too. You should roll out the red carpet.
