If you’re asking for honesty you have to understand that it comes in layers like an onion and different areas come out the more you get close and that also depends in which way. Bf vs friends hear diff stories. You gotta foster a bond in hard times and support them like friends do unconditionally and without judgement at all times if you want FULL honesty you gotta hear mens names in our mouths for whatever reason
Secondly, most women have extremely low standards now adays in comparison to what open and immediate access we have vs back in other eras. Men just cannot pass the bar to carry a convo, approach first, learn to be a conversationalists and have charisma, learn to actually flirt and understand pace and balance. Not to mention they don’t even met the subconscious attributes we unknowingly look for
Understandable, but for a guy like me that can do all those things you mentioned, I just don’t like it when a women mistakes me for being the general stereotype of men fitting your description, and then because of that it doesn’t work out. That has happened way too many times with me before. It’s as tho I have no control over it. I get tossed into that bucket one way or another even if my intentions and character mean very well.
This is really the wrong sub to ask these questions. There seems to be a lot of toxicity/ unrealistic standards here. Women love to say things like “if you want someone genuine be genuine yourself” which only works in a vacuum and an instances where you assume all women are good and mature. This is so far from the truth. Women literally seem to forget/ neglect the fact that just be being a guy, you are going to be compared against the last guy she had issues with and that proving you are
Nothing like him is incredibly difficult. None of this is black and white. The best thing I can say is be the best person you can be and tune out the noise. The only thing you can be expected to do with a woman is listen to her and take care of her needs. If you love her you will do that and the right woman for you won't be holding you to some arbitrary standard, rather holding you to what she wants personally. It does suck tho that especially in this generation, communication is nonexistent…
