      I think she was trying to say "our first relationship shouldn't be just about going on date", you could start off as friends and get to know each other. This is especially true if you're in a big population, we're literally once face out of thousands we see everyday, people can have their own social circles, including potential dating options. For our society 'dates' are actually moving pretty quick, people are usually going in with expectations from already established relationships (like at work) or, contradictory I know, from dating sites, which are nonetheless giving people at least a sense of some pre-vetting on who they are dealing with.
      The part about this not being a 'romcom' is because just asking someone out you've only known from proximity and getting into that kind of relationship isn't very realistic for people anymore.

    This reminds me of a story from Zen teachings in Japan.
    Two monks are walking along a road and are about to ford a stream to the other side. There is a woman who wants to cross for but she doesn't want to get the bottom of her kimono wet as she is attending a special event. One of the monks picked her up and carried her across and set her down. The monks continued but the other monk reminded the first monk "We are not ever allowed to even touch a woman. It's in our vows and you physically carried her across the water" and kept up the tirade for mile after mile. Finally, after quietly listening, the first monk replied "I put the woman down at the river bank, you're still carrying her".
    The story reminds me of today's whining women carrying everything that offends them, keeping all slights fresh in mind, around with them as everyday luggage.

Only to demand you why you asked for this . She, then reminds you that you forgot to say hello to her a few times, over the past years. And, NOW, she explicitly responds that she is not interested, and that she just accepted this to clarify things. Obviously on the next Monday at the office, you'd become a walking joke

    Women act like a simple question is harassment but I've legitimately been stalked and harassed by a few women in the past, with one of them being really bad. She approached me for the first time, and we had never spoken before that. She confessed her love to me before she could even ask me what my name was. I noped out of there as fast as possible cause all the alarms were blaring. She ended up somehow figuring out my full name, social media accounts, address, and phone number. When I got home after school that day, as well as every day for a long time after that, I had 150+ unread Facebook messages, and when I blocked that account, a new one would appear, and then I started receiving text messages, too. I was a loner in school and just kept to myself, I honestly don't know how she managed to get any information about me. And I did tell her I wasn't interested and that I just wanted her to leave me alone multiple times.
    By the way, this isn't a flex at all. She was a horrible person and fairly unattractive as well.

    I think some people fail to realize that men aren't competing against a woman for her time and attention, he's competing against other men. Asking a stranger on a date is an attempt to get ahead of other men. I've been friends with women that I had romantic interest in, it can be painful especially when they want to cry about their new asshole boyfriend who beats them and cheats.
    Some reasons to ask women out on a date after a short conversation:
    1. You value face to face interactions more than texting or phone calls as most communication is nonverbal.
    2. You want to see how she treats other people, especially people in food service.
    3. You want to be able to cut your losses quickly if need be as time is valuable.
    4. Being-friends-first-then-crawling-out-of-the-friendzone without being upfront with your desires and intentions as soon as appropriate is deceptive and dishonest, you're not a cuttlefish.

      Ok, about 30 years ago I noticed a woman at the gym (very cute) who started showing up at the gym regularly on my schedule. I'd seen her previously, but not that often. At some point I realized that she was 1) ALWAYS on the weight machine directly opposite of me, and 2) she wasn't wearing any panties under her loose shorts, when I knew that previously she always had a pair on. I was getting a regular show of her unshaved glory several times per week for an hour or more and she never said a word or even looked me in the eye. This went on for weeks, and I just considered it a perk of the gym that a pretty young woman was indulging her exhibitionist streak with me. Prior to her I'd always gotten some interaction with the women that flashed me, even if it was just a smile or an "oops," even if was completely accidental. Studiously pretending that I wasn't even there despite the whole performance being just for me was somehow a key part of it all.
      Then I screwed it up and said "Hi" to her at the desk on the way out. She bolted and I never saw her again. So, the answer to your question is "insecure crazy people."

It's similar to when they do studies that say the average number of lifetime sexual partners for women is 7, but the average number of sexual partners for men is 12. These numbers are baed around answers people like to give, not what is actually true. When marriage was common, they had objective figures from the register of births and marriages - they didn't have to ask people if they thought they were in a relationship. Now, you can have a couple, and one of them thinks it's a relationship, the other thinks they are just casual. I would take all of the figures you cited above with a huge rock of salt.

    ''If, despite all of this you want to ask a particular woman out, make sure she is interested romantically *first*, not just platonically''
    So in other words ''read my mind to know if I'm interested in going on a date with you before asking me if I want to go on a date with you''. Because surely this is a perfectly balanced and thoughtful way to interact with people... The mere fact that such people go on to live long enough to become adults speaks to how thoroughly mankind has erased all the barriers of natural selection that would have normally prevented people from being this amazingly stupid.

There isn't anything anyone can say to an accusation like that... Unless you are guilty then you could say sorry I suppose... But I didn't even see this woman till she was already angry at me.

Yes, some women like this exist and you will run into them. It's not a good reason to hide from your insecurities and prevent you from getting what you want from women and life.

      This shit ain't rocket appliances. Have some self awareness of yourself. Improve yourself how you can, where you think others might find you weird/unattractive. You're likely gonna get shot down 99% of the time if you take the boomhauer approach. Get some hobbies, interests, etc. Go out and interact with people in places where both genders are running around. Be casual and genuinely interested in those you talk with, and broach the subject of dating later. Learn to find comfort in being alone. You'll value being with someone more that way. The issue I see nowadays is people care about only what they want, instead of building actual relationships. That's why you see more people like this. They're looking for the perfect one, and they don't exist, so stop trying.

They throw themselves at me so much it's a turn off. I've been 'sexually assaulted' (if there wasn't a double standard) more times than i can count. Half the women in this small town have either grabbed my ass or tried to lick my tonsils forcefully when nobody was looking and they all think they're the only one, i got my ass squeezed 3 times in an hour working a fancy wine tasting event. I've had women pants me in public and latch onto my D like a suckerfish , had to carefully pry jaws away a few times while people wake and drove by looking like WTF lol. Another time it happened i was with a woman, my arm around her talking to her and another girl did the same suckerfish trick. She's like WTF and by this point i'm just like "yeah, this always happens, excuse me" as i wrestled my stuff back from her and told her no. The weirdest stuff is when women give me their number in front of the guy they were just holding hands with. He looks all salty at me while she gushes over me and i just try to gtfo.

      Men age like wine. As we get more skills, more experience, and more assets/money, we get more attractive. (And having more years of working out and exercise doesn’t hurt) Meanwhile, women tend to rely on their youth and good looks and therefore age like milk.
      In fact, women are most attractive the moment they hit 18- although it’s creepy for there to be a large age difference between two people who are dating. After they hit 18, it’s the roaring 20’s, but by 35, they hit the wall and it’s all downhill from there.

    I think the fear stems from the unpredictable ways that some men can pursue us. I’ve turned down seemingly nice men who turned persistent or hostile, even men that I had been friends with for a good length of time only to find out that they were only ever interested in me romantically. I’m not saying that her way of going about things is correct because you miss opportunities but it gets so tiring to try to form platonic friendships. I think if more people learned how to accept rejection in a healthy way it would lead to less missteps

    I admire your persistence in rejecting the blackpill and subsequent nihilism and social decay that follows it.
    The reason you're seeing it leave the internet and get closer to real-life is because that blackpilled nihilism is spreading. There are many socioeconomic factors involved in it. One of which is the lack of men who make more than women since women are the majority of people in higher education now and are constitutionally hypergamous so tend to reach above and beyond their level and they're not finding many men to try to marry up to. Hypergamy floats so as their status increases so does the level of man they find acceptable.
    Men are seeing that wages are flat for the last half century and prices of everything are up so rather than kill themselves chasing the already ate carrot at the end of a stick they're just maintaining a minimal level of living to get by which is possible if you pool resources with others on housing expenses.
    So you have a huge divergence there. Imagine a basketball hoop 100 meters in the air. Most people wouldn't even bother throwing the ball.
