Men don't like challenge. Boys play girl games b/c they have to

A lot of times it can be hard for a person to see the light at the end of the tunnel. It takes a lot of mental effort to convince yourself to keep at it when you've had multiple bad experiences that make the person feel inadequate.

I cant speak for all men but I hate fricking "games" maybe it was more tolerable as a high schooler and in college but post college? I wouldnt do well in todays dating world I guess. Id much rather a hey you want to give this a shot then lets do this type of guy rather than beat around the bush playing games type of guy.

Nope. If you waste my time you go frick yourself.
I will say that in my teen years and early college I played the game because I was more succeptible to emotions and hormones and did what I had to do to get some or maintain a relationship. Now though, all that BS is just not worth it.

OK Tigress, you responded so I will help. The first thing you need to know is that, when it comes to women, men are dumb. Your little, subtle hints, glances, and tiny flirts often go unnoticed because they could mean one of twenty things, or nothing at all. If you are interested, but throw out a plethora of brain teasers then the average drunk guy is never going to be able to navigate the maze.
You are not quite old enough to have reached IDGAF status where you can just say what is on your mind. You will get there. Until then, work on stopping the vague hints and just saying what is on your mind. A direct statement gets a direct response from a man. A direct statement in a friendly, smiling way will have a better chance of a positive response.
Crazy is good for one night but not to take to meet the family. Bitchy never wins.
Good luck.

I haven't seen that at all with single men being so afraid of rejection to point of not taking action. I think if they aren't taking action, they aren't interested.

because young men today don't like being told no
most boys in their 20's are self-conscious little pussies
also women are way more independent these days

There are games and there is "I touched his shoulder and laughed, why doesn't he ask me out?" or "I twirled my hair all flirty like, why is he talking to Becky?"
If you want it, act like you want it. Don't beat around the bush. I always used to say to girls I knew "playing hard to get is the easiest way to not get got." I'd rather spend my time with someone who cuts through the bullshite and shoots it straight. If you can joke back with me like I joke with you...challenge accepted.

Women have very unrealistic expectations. Ill admit im no Adonis, im only 5'10 but im decent looking. For every 10 numbers I get(not on tinder, IRL interactions), 6 wont respond, 2 will be wishy washy and fade out, 1 will want to be text bffs but then will go silent when you ask them out, 1 will agree to a date.
Seems a lot of women are perplexed that tall, attractive, wealthy, etc guys will bang them but wont date them. They are left being 26+ and wondering why men arent beating down the door anymore

The good stuff is when you find the profiles of women that say they won't send nudes and you get them to send nudes in like 2 hours.
Then of course you never talk to them again.

Because you are so mentally weak that you fall prey to the games
You don't understand how to play the game which is why will always be an incel

Rejection IRL with people you have to associate with still makes things awkward.

Half the girls I match with do not even respond. It is terrible.
