One side says most to all attractive women have boyfriends. A secondary claim is they are so in demand that it is completely unbalanced and unfair, anyone women whose not is just too *****y (thus dismissing the counter-examples).
The other side argues that there are women who are single and quite attractive. There are even those who wonder where are all the men.
The rest is just a bunch calling blind AFCs to one side (including well respected and established members "hitting a nerve" making propertous arguements) whiel bitter and whiny boys to the other side. Great...
This is a dumbass debate. What the controversy? Two binary extremes that are not mutally exclusive.
Are women in demand and on the recieving end which means all she needs to do is be available and a man will come? Yes, there is true. There is no debate on that. The nature if is on some nature order of the receptive and active or a screwed up social norm is debatable (but not of this topic so far).
Are there women women who are single, attractive, and not *****y? YES. I can name many who is currently single and is quite attractive. Okay, she is probably have someone who have his eyes on her, but that how it goes with men playing the pursuer and women the pursuee most of the time. Yet, there are still women who are single, not that uncommon, and yes you can play your hand to get her.
Ok, there is the third thing about some sort of unbalanced thing where the few men get the most women. I don't know about that, I don't think its not big of a deal anyway, I met enough single girls and seen enough couples to say that many aren't desperately fighting for scraps.
very good post, you should post more often.

Maxtro, I feel like you completely misunderstood what I wrote, I have no idea why you even took it personally, it was an "in general" question:

When I meet a man and it is obvious to me that he really wants a LTR with somebody... ANYBODY (slight exaggeration... but I take it there), it is a HUGE turn off. And red flag.
The question was: would you really want to be in a LTR with a woman who actively sought one out? Because in that case, aren't you just filler material? She really wants the LTR, and not YOU.
It seems as if you said YES, you would want a LTR with a woman who wasn't so much as interested in YOU, but a LTR.
As in, YOU could be anyone. She just wants to be a girlfriend.
Remix (scratch noises): she isnt interested in you, you, you.
This would be ok with you?
I am really disappointed in those of you who keep reiterating the tired "women can't make valid arguments", when it seems noone can even GRASP the concept I have presented.
Very good point and those girls are actually the girls that I do reject when was single. Just recently, I had a girl that wanted to go out with me just to lose her virginity and I was disgusted by how she went from guy to guy not being able to get into a relationship because she was so desparate. I know a lot of girls that are like this and are single maybe I should give Maxtro et. al. their numbers. Maybe this will stop this foolish debate.
I usually skip over girls like this as well because it shows them as desparate. And nothing is more unattractive then a desparate woman much like a guy that is desparate for women.
It's funny that I can say the same thing with substituting men for women and it takes an entire new meaning although it works the same way.

You're the one that's not getting it iqqi. Maxtro, and others made it pretty clear that any woman worthy of a LTR who wants a LTR would have a choice of several men to choose from and would be in one in a short period of time. You act like guys are too dense get what you say. They understand what you're saying they just are smart enough to realize you're wrong and to disagree with it. You're the one that's dense
Sure women would have their choice, much like guys have the choice of several women that they could possibly date when they are single. At least with most of my friends that are any good with women they always have a couple of girls that are interested.
This is actually a non-issue if you would change your mindset a little bit.

When will they let you know? When you're rich? Or must you have mega luck?
They approach me by giving me indicators of interest and talking to me first. The one of the things that I got going for me is that I am the school mascot (which makes me easily recognizable throughout the campus as the "marauder" = fame).
I usually get approached about three times a week by interested women. Just yesterday, I had my six month anniversary with my girlfriend and this girl came up to me, grabbed me from behind, and hugged me. My girlfriend was pissed off and I was laughing. The girl realized that she was my girlfriend on our six month anniversary and she was very embarrassed by what happened.

Now how the hell do you do that BESIDES PLASTIC SURGERY AND FLAUNTING WEALTH?
Your putting all your eggs in one basket (your looks). I advocate looks, but also your mental/emotional side. You must improve everything about you, humor, self-esteem, and etc. Have goals and dreams that can make you gain life experience. That only some of the stuff that I did.
A lot of what I have done is in the Don Juan Bible AND self improvement literature (Jack Canfield's "Success Principles" are the best).

Then, when you point out that there are decent girls out there who are NOT taken, that little voice is like, "Uhhh, oh yeah? Well, she's only single because she's a frigid stuck-up b*tch." That's interesting to me, because I think it reveals a lot about the kinds of problems you're having. That little voice in the back of your head is c&ck-blocking you. He's sitting back there giving you a pessimistic, negative, defeatist attitude about girls you don't even know.
Actually Nismo, Gio is correct about this part too. Anybody with a correct mindset can get the most attractive of women if they play the game correctly. It is espounded upon in the DJB and many other threads.
I've gotten with many attractive women over the last couple of years and I am nothing too special, its all about attitude.
