[bepp]

[Maddie Meyers]

I've checked out my prospects on rsvp they all look like mental asylum escapees lol

 

[Thatguy]

Agree.. same for us single blokes..

 

[aussie_single34]

The problem you might be facing is the shift in the balance of power
Since women carry the power now days many men do not approach as they don't wish to be rejected by yet another pretty woman
Or worse labelled as a fiend,pervert , whatever

If you could let me know which is your local supermarket maybe we could strike up a conversation over some ripe truss tomatoes.

 

[HappyPirate]

Ahoy, OK so your confidence is a bit low, what you need to do is shake yourself up, be strong and if there is a guy you see out there in the world put on a big smile and go and say Hello.
In today world, its very tough on the young guys, you will need to make the first move,

Tough for the young guys ? Only in the city now ,maybe
As a country bloke it has it has always been difficult The ratio of women to men is nowhere near 50/50 probably nearer 70/30

Often I think thats why the country man is often friendlier He knows he has to show himself to his best advantage at all times

Even more so when you are a ugly git like myself with the dress sense of a swagman

not even close....
if a chick reckons its hard.... I suggest her definition and a guys definition are much much different.
.. only one approaches the realistic definition of the word hard

 

[bushseeker]

I've checked out my prospects on rsvp they all look like mental asylum escapees lol

and theres the issue there . most woman wouldn't know a good thing.....
much easier to be extremely judgmental.
I gave up on meeting women. the few I did meet just let you know what a huge favor there doing you and so exactly how much are you going to be offering

 

[Master Yoda]

Like everything else it is madr to look like it is unapproachable by the ones that are good at it and those who profit off it.

It's really not......

 

[Barbosa]

When you see a guy you like, put on your best smile, walk up to him and say;- Hi
The rest will happen naturaly

 

[Dallas]

I have to say, as a guy that finding a date is incredibly hard. I strike up conversations with women all the time as I'm pretty confident and outgoing, most are very friendly, ALL tell me about their husbands or boyfriends or even introduce me to them. I can't remember the last time I actually struck up a conversation with someone who was single as well as available.

So if you're a single guy you have to expect constant rejection but for you Indy it should be a lot easier but the hard part will be sorting out the genuine and trustworthy guys from the rest.

 

[Happy2]

Yes Indy If you want to meet a genuine , kind, truly sincere gent Meet up with Dallas But be warned He can drink me under the table and he's Really really truly OLD

 

[Dallas]

Thanks H2, I can always count of you for a great reference sadly what he says is true... I can drink him under the table but I only drink spring water so I'm under the table because I'm water logged

thats called being boyfriended and is amazingly rude. They might as well stand there and yell in your face IM NOT FUCKING INTRESTED because thats what its girl talk for (see thread on complicated sexes)
but yes the finding single women thing is incredibly hard. most women go many years as "swinging monkeys" in other words as a monkey wont let go of a branch until it has hold of another a lady wont give the "oh its not you its me" until they have established another man .
this is compounded by the lack of women in western australia to which perth is not immune but as has been stated is chronic in rural areas
it does not take a large imbalance between the sexes before .. as you say finding single women becomes next to impossible
and also as you say the intrest from the single men creates very obnoxious characteristics amongst the women as they percieve themselves to be far more desirable than they actually are due to the continual attention.
bizarrely such traits are often found in the "less attractive" women for lack of a better term
as they end up getting a big proportion of the attention as men realise thier really up against it odds wise and seek out ladys they think are less likely to already be taken

 

[Indy Fire]

hmmm ok thanks guys ill keep you posted shake it up a little and get that confidence booming SHITT haha

Yes i guessed that some didn't have partners they were just saying that as they weren't interested for whatever reason. And you are SO right about swinging monkeys. There was a woman that I have known for 30 years in town. I actually asked her out when she we were both 20, well we are both 50 now and recently I bumped into her and she said, I'm divorced now so I asked her out and she said oh no sorry I'm in a relationship, and I said, but didn't you just say you were divorced? And she said yes, but before I ditched that loser, I had my new guy lined up and ready to go. So in other words, there's no dating scene, just "transitioning". She even said that, her friends don't date, they transition because there are just so many single guys to choose from. And they wonder why guys go to see W/L's There's one private W/L in town and she's advertised at $600 per hour and she'd look ordinary compared to LT's ladies yet she's swamped with bookings.

 

[bushseeker]

ha ha that coment about wondering why we see ladys is kind off too true.
women HATE working ladys with an absolute passion.
they are thier biggest threat.
a guy with any brains will just tell them to bash thier pilbarra princess crap up thier arse .. its less hassel trying to please you AND cheaper to see a transactional lady

 

[bushseeker]

a typical date with the lady I see generally involves a couple of hundred in drinks and food out in town... me telling her constantly how pretty. smart etc she is.
me appolagising continually for everything ive done/might have done/will do
then appolagising for how all men are bastards anyway... then she cracks the shits and leaves anyway...........
compared to Locanto $200 and an evening of sex....
hey ladys..... its not much of a choice.....

 

[Axeone]

Indy one thing social media does for you is insulate you from the real world. Why not next time this happens just smile back and say hi. If he turns out to be jerk say nice talking to you and move on.
What have you got to lose.

Id have to disagree with that,

having been on both sides partner and pussy hunter, i actually consider it respectful, If a girl is with a guy and lets a another guy chat her up and thinks he has a chance its far more rude, It also means the girl has respect for her partner by saying hey Im with someone dont waste your time here.

 

[bushseeker]

lots better ways to do it. as in not engage the conversation in the first place.
and has been mentioned most ladys couldn't care less if they are currently with a guy or not.. theier always on the lookout for the next branch or "transition"
