I'm baffled by men who don't care about meeting women or having sex

[giaebonyprincess]

The single people i do know don't even date. Does anyone still date anymore? Has it become an antiquated/obsolete ritual?

I am seriously thinking about applying to the show First Dates on Slice network. Looks interesting!!

In your case, you may want to carry a sawed off baseball bat........you know , not to seriously harm anyone, but just to keep the men at a tolerable number from swarming around you....after a few minutes of knocking them on the head, your left with the ones that are fairly determined ,and a little more serious about being in your company.

.....and let me know if it happens......I've a very hard head.

"As for the dating question. put me in the category of having no interest in dating women from the lower mainland. to expensive, to self absorbed to be bothered with. if i have the urge SP's fill the need. I could date locally if i wanted to as looks and shape are not a problem. i do date if i go out of town, especially to the states. american women are much more down to earth."

thinking about this,

I believe it has a lot to do with intimacy issues or love issues,
people don't know how to love, or are afraid of to much intimacy,

I mean people are annoying being involved with some one is a pain. a real pain in the ass actually, being responsible for some one or even a pet, ditto

but there are moments of blissful intimacy very deep personal emotional intimacy, or even sexual intimacy at times,, that make it all worth wild.
I would venture to guess, that people don't know how to love or afraid of intimacy,

some psychological fuck up somewhere.

The thing is, you don't just have to deal with the gf, but with all of her friends and family. That's the real pain in the ass.

Thanks, I wish I had that problem. I'm a kind of a geek when in normal gear. (Don't tell anyone)

No question dating is more difficult in this day and age, but that's OUR fault. The move to internet dating has created a sort of "window shopping" style of picking a partner. We only use our eyes not our other senses. The result is women create a laundry list (as do males) versus getting to know someone. So a woman might say "I want a man that's 6 feet or taller" without ever giving the person a shot otherwise. Those women might think differently if you were 5 foot 9 but you met them in real life & they saw you're actually a good guy. Women are pretty forgiving and empathetic.

You nailed it! Then those women hit their 30's and become desperate as their looks fade. Then they decide they will date somebody under 6' because they are less desirable. I was on Bumble I managed to swipe through all the people in their 20's. Anything over 32 I still can't swipe through them all. The way I look is if I want to windowshop I can just find a well reviewed SP.

Secondly, one thing I noticed with guys nowadays is they seem to lack the ability to walk up & engage a female in conversation. Having lived elsewhere I find people in Vancouver exceptionally easy to approach and talk to. This ain't Toronto that's for sure. Regardless of what year it is I believe women still expect the male to be the initiator. There is nothing wrong with stepping into someone's little bubble provided you're polite and not too persistent.

I find the women here are nicer than in Toronto. If you strike up a conversation with them, a lot of times they will converse back like you stated. You may even get a #, though some of these girls are too nice to say no, so you might not get anywhere. It's worth a shot!

No, you were pretty cute, and a good conversationalist.
