Some are 1- Nobody is busier than someone who doesn't want you2- Politeness is not attraction3- Mixed feedbacks are usually a no4- People know exactly what they want or don't want from you, trying to change their minds will be a giant waste of time5- Actually very few people will truly like you via /r/dating_advice

So I've a date with this gorgeous girl this week who I met online. We've had great conversations over text and voice notes for over two months now, cos lockdown meant we couldn't meet up. Quite rare during lockdown, to have a conversation for this long since almost all of them fizzle out. For me atleast haha. There's mutual interest and some flirting too so I know we're both keen on seeing each other.Would getting her some flowers be too much on what is technically a first date but feels like a bit more than the first date? via /r/dating_advice

Tonight I (25F) went to a restaurant I’ve really been wanting to try. Just went alone and sat at the bar. The male bartender (early 40s) treated me really well since it was my first time there. Good conversation, as I’m a bartender as well so we got along. I’m chatting with regulars too. Anyway, somehow the fact I was alone got brought up and the regular says something along the lines of “I can’t believe you can’t find anyone to take you to dinner” and the bartender says “I’m sure she could absolutely find someone” and the regular suggests the bartender take me to dinner sometime. Offers to pay the first $100 of our check if we go. The bartender suggests this restaurant I’ve been dying to go to (VERY expensive, probably the most expensive in our area.) I don’t want to turn down the opportunity to go!!! But I can’t date this guy and he’s obviously interested. I’d love to go back to his bar again and I want him to come to mine! But there’s no romantic interest on my part. What should I do? via /r/dating_advice

So I've (f22) been on a few dates with a guy(M24). I really like him. I think we will soon be at the point where we're going to take it a step further and have sex. I've never been with anyone before. I've just never really been interested. Do I tell him that? I don't want to make it a big deal or something. What if that turns him off? I'm pretty sure he thinks I've been with guys before. Not that he's asked me that specifically. I'm just not really sure if I should say that I'm a virgin. I don't want to make things awkward because I do really like him. via /r/dating_advice

I’ll go first.•I was dating a guy for 2 years. We lived together. One day I got really sick at work and I passed out. When I woke up in the ER the doctor came in and told me they found a cancerous mass and I was being admitted immediately. I was terrified. My bf came to see me and I cried and asked if he could please stay with me. He said no because he had a fantasy football party. I cried and he told me I was being immature then left. Long story short, he moved out and ghosted me while I was in the hospital and didn’t know till I got home. • My brother is recently divorced but decided he wants to marry his mistress. She’s a little older (late 30’s) and has always wanted kids but unfortunately has PCOS and will make conceiving more difficult. My brother has 2 already and doesn’t even like the 2 he has and definitely does not want more. Last week I accidentally found out he got a vasectomy and doesn’t plan to tell her and is planning to blame her PCOS on their fertility issues. via /r/dating_advice

So I'm 32. I've been called the sweetest guy, but I lack something. I personally don't understand why I can't get a date. I tried everything so far. Nothing works. I have the confidence, but I fail to attract attention. Please let me know what works for you via /r/dating_advice

Hear me out.I (28M) was on a first date last week with a 24F and it went really well. Holding hands and three kisses. We were together for like 4 hours. I didn’t invite her over to my place since I told her I want to move slowly. We’re planning on meeting again on Wednesday!Here’s the thing. She’s an upcoming local artist and had just released a new single over the weekend. Therefore, I thought it’d be nice to congratulate her on her newly released song! My original plan was just to giver her a card but I was at the store today and saw some flowers and I was like “Why can’t I bring her cards + flowers to congratulate her?”Is this too much? For context, we’re doing Wine Wednesday! via /r/dating_advice

I moved into a new building about 4 months ago. I immediately noticed how hot this guy was as soon as I moved in and we would run into each other while walking our dogs. Well, he asked me to dinner, I’m very attracted to him, he’s totally my type, but all of my friends are telling me not to “sh*t where I eat.” So give me some horror stories about what happened to you so I don’t do it. via /r/dating_advice

Anyone ever wonder this? I don't think it has to do with attractiveness either, I think some people just get how relationships work better than others. via /r/dating_advice

First of all as a disclaimer, I want to say my GF is not a representation of all women who identify as feminist. I get along with most feminist in my real life and I have dated feminist in the past with no issues.OK so I've been dating my current GF for 8 months, it was great. We have similar sense of humor, personality, common interest, and it was a pretty easy going relationships.I've always know she's a feminist, into feminist studies and issues and it was never a problem. I would identify as a feminist since I believed in equals rights and opportunity.Then one day my GF asked me a question, she was telling me about how women being harassed and assaulted in subway trains at night time and asked me what I personally think a solution to prevent that would be. I told her that I think it would be a good idea to add security guards in the trains and maybe that would prevent some assaults. She suddenly got mad at me telling me "you're such a typical guy with surface level solutions, and not attacking the root of the real problem, instead of expecting women to be protected, or to protect themselves, why not teach men not to rape or assault women"And I was a bit confused at first that she got so upset, I told her that I agree with her, teaching men about consent is a good thing, but if she's asking me what's the solution to attacks, my first instinct isn't going to be about the background of the attacker and how he was raised. I tried explaining that I'm a minority myself, and I've experience racist attacks, and even though I think it's a good thing to teach children about not being racist, there's aways going to be people who don't learn, so even though teaching children about consent or racism is a good thing, and I support that, I just figured having a solution for the people who fall through the cracks isn't a bad thing either, I think we can do both. It lead to an argument, I even tried apologizing, but eventually she said "just forget it" and we didn't speak on it.Then another day my GF was telling me a story about how a guy who asked her out many years ago, and when she told him no, he grabbed her arm doing that "come on baby don't be a tease" thing, and she was telling me how she felt violated and unheard during that experience. Then she told me "I wish you could understand where I'm coming from, I you could understand what that's like, even a little bit, just 1%, but you don't understand so I feel alone talking to you about it"Then I told her that I did understand, that I myself was raped in prison, and that I understand what it's like to be violated, to feel powerless. I told her that I understand that as a guy, out in the streets I don't have to worry about it as much as she does as a woman, so I won't have the same exact experience as a woman, but that I was sympathetic towards her struggles and I never want her to feel alone or not understood when she opens up to me about these things, that I could at least offer her that little bit of understanding she wishes I had. (She knew I went to prison for about a year when I was 18, but she didn't know I got raped)And then she just said "Well it's not the same, you got raped by another man, and it's men who are causing this problem, so it's just men attacking other men" and I couldn't' believe she just threw that at my face like that. It took a lot for me to also open up and tell her that, and she didn't have an ounce of sympathy for me.Then an argument that happened a couple of days ago was she brought up the train argument again about me being a bad feminist or bad ally, and asking me why I'm being so difficult, telling me I'm an asshole just like all men. Then I told her I think it's unfair for her to label all men as assholes, she started mocking me "Aww, does hearing those words make you sad, are you gonna cry like little baby?" and I told her that it's a really weird thing for her to say since she's said in the past that men should be more vulnerable and that vulnerable men shouldn't be infantilized, and she kept going on about how I'm gonna cry like a baby, at this point I just left, and we haven't spoken in days.It's really weird because she wasn't like this at all when we met and for all this time until recently I don't know if it's that her true nature is coming out, or maybe something happened to her recently that's making her act this way. What's weird is our arguments are pointless since we technically agree with everything. Is this a red flag? Should I just break up with her and cut things off from now on? for the last month I feel I have to walk on eggshells around her to not upset her or say the wrong thing.TLDR;- Dating girl for 7 months- Asked me what I thought a solution should be to prevent women being harassed in trains, I suggested security guards, she got mad because I didn't suggest teaching men not to rape.- She was telling me a bad experience of hers when she told a guy NO and he kept going, told me she wishes I understood what it was like, when I told her I was raped, she said it doesn't count because it's a guy raping another guy- She says men should be more vulnerable, and vulnerable men shouldn't be infantilized, but when we argued she using shaming languages "Gonna cry, like a baby?"- I feel I have to walk on Eggshells around her. via /r/dating_advice

I am honestly so tired of this cycle and I know " not all men" and " you just have shit taste in guys". I literally have no way of detecting it, they seem like really nice dudes until they ghost me. They always ALWAYS come back eventually thought, but at that point I am too pissed off and leave them on read.The guy I've been dating seemed so sweet. We went on a 12 hour date going to different pubs, laughing talking about our childhoods, really deep conversations. How can you go from talking everyday and having such a blast to not texting after we slept together?I might as well just enjoy the dates, then play with my sex toys when I get home.No sex for me, it's just not worth it at this point. via /r/dating_advice

Confused and would like to know how a guy would treat someone they like vs how they would treat their best female friends. Would you text a best friend everyday? Would you update her what you are up to? Would you tease her all the time? Do you think of her when you come across something interesting on social media and share with her?P/S: would like to know how guys are especially for a talkative introverted guy via /r/dating_advice

Currently sad over a guy I knew for a week. I get attached to people so fast , and I don’t like letting people go. Like even if we’re not romantic anymore but I really liked you, I still want to remain friends and still be able to check up on you? Idk if it’s just me or I’m just crazy. Does anyone else feel like this ?? It makes dating so hard sometimes bc I don’t want to get too attached to someone who may not stick around. via /r/dating_advice

Now I know alot of people are probably reading the title and saying "what a dumb and obvious question" but I'm seriously unable to tell what is right and wrong.This week, a girl F(24) I've M(23) been talking to and I are going to be going to a brewery for a night out and she already told me she gets crazy when she starts drinking. She is also incredibly flirty and I'm more than sure from how she talks to me that she will probably want to go to the bedroom afterwards. I really like her and would be down but i usually get incredibly nervous when someone I know has been drinking asks me for sex because i know alcohol makes people make choices and decisions they wouldn't make if they were sober. I mean it's called Liquid courage for a reason. The last thing I want is to accept her advances, then come next morning hear she wasn't ready yet and I used her while she was under the influence.Now I know I might be worrying over nothing to those who read this but it just bugs me because I had a friend from college who agreed to sex with a drunk friend and he just got out of a bad rape accusation. I'm just trying to save myself from anything similar and trying to make the right choice.Also, please don't ask me about my friend's accusations and issue. He didn't tell me much due to privacy and just told me the after effects. ThanksEdit: I guess i should mention along with my friends situation, I had a previous situation myself where a previous GF pretended to be drunk to come onto me and i rejected her for being drunk. She got mad and eventually broke up with me for rejecting her so it always boggled me if I did the right thing or not. Sorry for not adding in the first place via /r/dating_advice

I (22F) met my best friend (24M) about a year and a half ago and we just clicked instantly. I didn’t think I would ever like him, but as I kept learning more about him I just started thinking about him more and caring more for him and all that. I found out about my feelings because around September last year he started going out with an old friend of his and I got a little jealous. In April this year they broke up and I was happy and upset about it (happy for obvious reasons but upset because he was upset) which further confirmed my feelings. It’s already been a few months and he says he’s over her (but I doubt it) and I have been desperately trying to get over him. I don’t want to ruin the friendship because of some crush I have on him. Usually I am able to get over my crushes by just telling them about it but I fear that my feelings for him have grown far too much to be able to get over them by just confessing to him. Furthermore, I’m afraid of being rejected and even more afraid of him accepting my feelings and somehow feeling the same way (doubtful). What should I do?P.S. Obviously, there are details of how our friendship is I don’t share in this short post and am happy to answer questions about this to help better understand the situation. via /r/dating_advice

Just curious about what some of your expectations are, it's tough to find a balance between not trying too hard but still trying so I wanted to hear some of y'alls opinions on the matter. via /r/dating_advice
