[quote=@Dynamo Frokane] Bad dating advice #2 [i][b][b]Stop trying so hard to meet someone just relax and that person will come to you.[/b][/b][/i] This doesn't apply to most men. Unless you are quite good looking (which not all of us are) its very unlikely a girl is ever going to go up to you, compliment you and ask for your number and propose a a date, this is just real life, we are making strides in gender roles but this one has a long way to go. If you tell an average Joe to not pursue dates or meeting people he wont meet anyone. People aren't searching for you to be their friend or their boyfriend you have to put yourself out there. [/quote] That's true. We live in a culture that hates male sexuality and has been attacking it since the 70s. I wouldn't be dating right now if I had not gotten the courage to ask my girlfriend out. Not encouraging men to speak out about their feelings is very ruinous to a man's self confidence.
