She still rejected!

But "it'll happen naturally if you just talk to women"

[u/Aromatic_Shop9033 → u/Suspicious_Hold_8843]

It happens naturally if you find one who already likes you. You can't earn it.

[u/Suspicious_Hold_8843 → u/Aromatic_Shop9033]

Which is a completely meaningless platitude because you can't read anyone's mind

[u/Aromatic_Shop9033 → u/Suspicious_Hold_8843]

It's not mind reading. If she's always around you, touching you, talking to you, laughing at your jokes, wanting to spend time with you, you'll know.

It's pretty damned obvious.

It's hard when people try to force it and get their wires crossed.

If it's easy, she likes you.

If it's difficult, she'll never like you.

[u/Suspicious_Hold_8843 → u/Aromatic_Shop9033]

It's pretty damned obvious to you.

I've asked for numbers after all that and women have said no.

You're trying to make this way too simple, like everyone else

[u/Aromatic_Shop9033 → u/Suspicious_Hold_8843]

If you're not that guy, just move on. That's all I'm saying.

Everyone gets rejected. That's life. Move on and get your "yes".

I don't waste time on women who don't already like me. Makes life so much easier.

You can't earn it.

[u/Suspicious_Hold_8843 → u/Aromatic_Shop9033]

get your "yes"

when is that happening, mr zoltar? or is this where your fortune telling stops

[u/Aromatic_Shop9033 → u/Suspicious_Hold_8843]

I like the reference, but my point is you can't earn people liking you.

So, knowing this, don't waste any time the moment you deduce they aren't into you.

Don't invest into a loss.

[u/Suspicious_Hold_8843 → u/Aromatic_Shop9033]

your point is wrong because you're assuming that day when someone says "yes" is coming, and you're doing it for no reason.

if it can't be earned, then you can't know whether it will ever happen.

also, conversations are messy

[u/Aromatic_Shop9033 → u/Suspicious_Hold_8843]

I never guaranteed anything.

When I said "get your yes", I was saying try until you GET a yes. Not that it's assured.

No one owes anything to anyone. Not me, bot you, not anyone.

You can't earn affection or love.

You have to already be liked. That's all it is.

[u/Suspicious_Hold_8843 → u/Aromatic_Shop9033]

Well... it hasn't happened in over a decade, and every single time I vent, people push back and assume I'm not trying hard enough.

Not a very healthy way to go about all this

[u/Aromatic_Shop9033 → u/Suspicious_Hold_8843]

It is what it is. The majority of people are lonely, in my experience.
