Girls not giving out their numbers

[BeExcellent]

Because dark triads do so poorly in the dating realm, and who needs psychologists when we have your golden vagina, O Great Seer.

Meh. Not dark triad at all. Not me & not him. No sex yet either. As I've noted I do not just jump into bed. Neither does he. He's intriguing. So it's all good & things are developing naturally. Instead of lampooning me some of y'all should really get out more.

We now return to the original content of this thread. Making the thread about me is silly.

When a girl is highly interested in you, she will fly across the world and through a mine-field filled with atomic bombs to get to you. If I don't get that type of interest from a woman whatever the reason may be (whether bad pics on OLD, she doesn't know me well enough, a "misunderstanding"), frankly, I'm not interested, as there are thousands of hot women in my immediate vicinity who will.

Exactly. Again, if she wanted me to have her number, I'd have it. I don't have time for games. That's not an apothegm - I genuinely don't have time.

In however I meet a woman, I expect full compliance in all my engaging requests beginning from "Hello" and to the relation. Otherwise, she's out. The only exception I allow is reasonable resistance to sex as I understand she is protecting her image.

If more men adopted this philosophy, we wouldn't have a forum.

Best post in the thread & everybody seems to have missed it.

Sorry for off-topic, but how do you hyperlink text here?

I never said you were dark triad but thats an interesting reaction. Dark triads are the definition of poor inner game yet they clean up with women...because they APPEAR to have strong inner game.

Well any response could be considered an "interesting" reaction. That's what happens whenever you have a preconceived answer running around trying to find a question, lol.

Its so interesting that without any real life context people here presume to know things about me. Granted, I reveal plenty, but if you do your homework you'll find it is considered and consistent.

Then others varnish with the laquer of their own assumptions, projections and beliefs. Many people are incapable of objectivity. In fact the argument could be compellingly made that no one is capable of objectivity. That's fair.

But to assume I am ignorant in my own life is a stretch if you read much of my writings here. What I say is consistent because it comes out of who I AM. Because I know who I am I appreciate other people who know who they are. As has been said ad nauseum here:

Water seeks its own level. It's easy to read who someone is based on what they do. And if you pay attention everyone reveals who they are if one is honest about what one observes.

That is as true of me as of anyone else. I just find the potshots amusing to be honest. They reveal much more about the person taking the potshot than they do about me.

So go on. It's entertaining.

Lol, I'm no victim. I assumed nothing yet you continue projecting:

Why play the victim? I never called you Dark Triad. You assumed I was calling you one, why? Platitudes are no substitute for good old fashioned mind reading, although "takes one to know one" might be a decent one to explain your instantaneous insight into the darkest secrets of men.

You fantastical projections are getting comical.

Maybe you know the winning lotto numbers...if you can assume those into reality I'll get a ticket & split the winnings with you.

You sound almost jealous.

Nobody said artist = inner game. Don't be obtuse. I said he has all those other qualities, including inner game as well.

The idea that a woman can't read inner game instantly? Quite silly. Inner game is easy to read, anyone who thinks it takes a year to show inner game doesn't have it. The young 20 somethings seem to forget about experience in life because they don't have much yet relatively speaking. This man is in his early 50s. Inner game comes to a great degree from life experience and how a man carries himself. That has nothing to do with what he does for a living

Yet you mentioned the below:

Prince died, RIP.

He's a painter and ceramicist. He also builds handmade furniture & high end custom homes & commercial space. He owns the rights to work of family members who were well known in the Midcentury period. So he makes a living creating things. Multiple creative income streams. People collect his work and commission things. He is in high end galleries in several major art markets.

He's also smart, wise, funny, sexy, good looking, generous and used to beautiful women. He has solid inner game.

You just "read" these things through his "solid inner game"? Why would I be "jealous"? The dude could be a face painter at children's birthday parties irl.

Gee whiz. I stated facts. You asked about him being an artist. How you arrived at carnival face painter I've no idea but it doesn't speak well of your reading comprehension skills. Regarding this man I'm not going to name drop.

He is a success doing what he is passionate about. I greatly respect that. Every man here should aspire to that.

His personality and character are what appeal to me over and above what he does. I think he's a great guy. I have high interest in him (and every man I consider for dating is both successful and good looking.)

The whole point of my original contribution to this thread is in line with what many have said:

Namely that an interested woman will be accessible and make dating simple.

I like this man. We have much in common, enjoy one another's company and he is not needy or desperate. He leaves me space to wonder but he does enough to display interest. He knows exactly what he is doing, which I appreciate. I do not s h i t test him. You see if a man is high enough caliber for me to date, you better believe I'm happy to date him and I defer and encourage and appreciate his leadership. I know what leadership looks like in a man.

If your inclination is to poke fun at that...go ahead. It's not some "halo effect", rather it's warmth & respect. It's good stuff. I recommend it.

perhaps you should refer to him as the MAN you are dating instead of trying to humble brag about what he does, his status, connections etc.

And let's not act like you haven't been trying to play keep up with the chest beaters on here either. You've been doing that.

The difference is some of us don't need to go overboard trying to "impress" random strangers on the net. Doesn't = "not at that level". Some of us see through the insecurity, need for acceptance and "validation".

Says the man who asked about him as an artist.

I contribute where I see fit. Feel invited to ignore me.

Unless & until I become exclusive with someone in particular I go on dates with various men. Some of the things I observe might be useful to someone else, particularly since I date high caliber men and many here aspire to be high caliber men (and some here already ARE).

Of the men I go out with very few warrant a second date. But a small percent do.

The simplest way to distinguish who I'm referring to is through descriptions just as everyone else here does.

If that bothers you, oh well. I have abundance & options. If you think that's show off-y then you have work to do on you.

You are encouraged to have the last word.

I wouldn't know he was an artist if you hadn't mentioned it every chance you get.

Yes some of us are high caliber and we recognize those desperate for validation and acceptance from random strangers on the net who can be whomever they pretend to be.

Couple years back, one friend of mine had the same response from a girl. I purposefully sought out the girl, gave her identical lines, word-for-word as my friend did, and then asked for the phone number. She coughed it up with no resistance at all.

so... you're better looking than your friend? or you have better delivery of your lines?

sounds like one of you is friend zoned lmao

If she don"t give you a number, but an app, that's just her being controlling. She'll go ghost eventually. Think she'd refuse to give her number to Channing Tatum? Hell no!
