Women are like cats. They rub on you, climb on you, try to be near you, sigh when they're next to you, and we're like "I think she's just being friendly". Also, I just told on myself that I don't have a girlfriend because I compared women to cats...

Do you have cats?
I have a cat and I get messages on dating apps from women telling me they like me but I need to get rid of my cat to date them. It's fucking weird.
It's nice of them to tell you that you should ignore them.
there is a tend of people being aggressive now in dating where they basically like list out all their demands and then expect you to say yes or something. it's so fucking weird to me to demand that a complete stranger pay your bills for you or get rid of their pet for you, but it's popular on tiktok and all that. and if someone says no your demands, they are a weak and pathetic person. There is just this weird like 'make major lifelong commitments to me from the get go' nonsense going on.
maybe I'm old fashioned but when i was growing up you typically didn't make demands from strangers, you got to know them a bit before you started asking them for major commitments and then you respected them if they said no. relationships were something that emerged and you negotiated, they weren't employment contracts where you specified everything you 'need' before you even met them.
something something commodification of relationships, I guess?
Wow, I can't believe you said that!!! I was vibing with a woman who approached me. Got her number, we have similar interests, etc. I mentioned in a text something offhand about my cat in the context of "what have you been up to"... Boom. Instant ghost. Never heard from her again!

When women can't communicate and frustrate themselves.
I have dated women who expect me to read their minds and think if I am not Professor X I don't care about them.
One breakup the reason was "I shouldn't have to ask you for anything, you should already know what I want before I want it. That is what love is!"
Then I asked her if she does that for me and she made a face and said "No, you're a man you don't deserve that."
That sounds like a bullet dodged honestly.
You deserve someone to love you in a way that includes showing it by doing little things to make your life easier/better/more comfortable.

I was at some fast food joint with a buddy and his girlfriend, and after ordering my friend's girlfriend told me the cashier was so flirting with me.
Me and my friend: What? She was? How so?
Nah I don't trust it, she was just being nice cuz it's her job

If you want to know why men with basic decency are so oblivious, head on over to the womens stuff community and see how many posts boil down to "all men are rapists". I'm friends with several real life women, and most of them hold that same opinion and have damn good reasons for it ("Except you glitch, you're one of the good ones"). More than one have expressed to me that they hate being straight because they've never dated a man who hasn't taken advantage of them.
So yeah, I'm not making a move on a lady, well mostly because I'm gay, but even if I wasn't I wouldn't unless she explicitly asked for it. (I'd also have to run it by my boyfriend, and ask if she wanted a threesome with us, but that's another topic.)
Let's check out womens stuff... arts and crafts, cute outfits, articles on women's health, weekly accomplishments, friday games, memes... did not see a single comment or post calling all men rapists. Probably because it goes against the rules.

Reminds me of an interaction my friend had with a girl that he usually just had casual sex with. She asked him if they could do some rougher stuff, things that definitely would leave a physical mark. He said OK, but ONLY if she wrote up a statement beforehand explaining that this is in fact something she wanted to have done to her.
There isn't a single iota he could have said or done if she decided after the fact that it wasn't for her and just reported it to the police. Most decent guys are very cautious about being wrongly accused, as the fallout entails the same thing as actually having violated someone.
I'd say most guys are as afraid of being accused of violence as most women are afraid of being exposed to it.
