That's easy it's not not wanting to come off as a creep. Where do you meet them? I have been told you cannot approach women in the bar, work, gym, through hobbies etc. Only place that is okay is dating apps and they are awful for so many reasons for everyone involved.
You don't want to be creepy so you don't approach people. Then you get people calling you creepy for being lonley.
Ahhh, yes. Intentionally being on "the hunt". It's a shitty model, it rarely works, and I don't understand why it persists.
This is part of the fallacy that men are fed.
I should probably make a video on the subject, but I doubt people would listen. But the way to meet women is the same way you meet new male friends. How do you do that?
I don't think the main message is not approaching women anywhere. I think the main message is actually making friends before making a move. Not just asking someone out.
I've had 2 relationships and am in a happt marriage going on 10 years, and each one started by being friendly and sharing interests, because then it's natural to go do something together sometime.
Don't overcomplicate it, just be friendly and make it natural to spend time together.
When's the last time you asked someone out?
