Is Receiving Male Attention For Women Really That Serious?

[Aphrodite]

Why do you think this is a reality? I've seen it with women that don't really have hobbies and nothing to do outside of work or school. Some poster even mentioned strippers coming to his barbershop for male attention because they had nothing better to do.

Society ingrains in girls heads that male attention is important.
Your self worth is heavily measured by men.
How you look.
If you can give a man a family.
If a man will marry you.

For a lot yes... in my personal life at work especially the married women who I might say your hair look nice or I see you got you got a new outfit they go crazy, because their husbands don't complement them at all..

I actually had a few ask me out and I was like im cool

Are they dressing sexy and looking good for their husbands though? I've heard many men complain that their wives dress up and look all sexy for work, but at home, they in sweats, with their hair up and got a face mask on.

It's why things like the friend zone exist.
It's why women in relationships hold conversations with guys they know are trying to fukk them.

Attention is a drug. Men just learn to deal with not having it better

shyt like this is why I'll have a hard time getting married to anyone. The most innocent women can be the most scandalous. Doesn't help my parents got divorced.

Real talk when me and my girl ended things, I ran into her and some dude she got in the friendzone at a basketball game at school

Every normal person likes a certain amount of attention to a certain extent, only weirdos want to go through life completely unnoticed. The problem is people become addicted to it like the what ol girl is saying in the op to the point where there live for it.

I think the difference is a lot of dudes be upset with women in their attention seeking because it's mostly for trivial base shyt but at the end of the day it's all the same thing.

If you're not a man that's an absolutely worthless fakkit then you have some type of hobby(s) or something you do in your free time, ( cars, shoes, their body etc... )and when another person sees and appreciates what you did / are doing it's a good feeling. Some women get that shyt so much for absolutely nothing outside of rolling out of bed that it because natural to them so off course when it isn't there, theyre gonna feel a certain type of way about it

You gotta find one that's comfortable without the attention for the most part. I feel most women want and like attention for how they look on some level. Some more than others. You can also teach her to place value on other things that gives her high self-esteem, self-confidence etc.

It really is some crazy psychological shyt. I've seen chicks not dolled up at all and their confidence is low, they are embarrassed to be seen by that guy they are interested in. But when they are all dolled up, they have this newfound confidence. That doesn't seem healthy to me.

 

[Elle Driver]

Yes.

 

[Marc Spector]

Yup, for some women they think it determines their whole self-worth

given that we live in a patriarchy, they are not far off to think that.

That's how my girl is now for the most part, she's confident in who she is and doesn't need all that validation, but she's in grad school now and a couple hours out from me, it's a primarily white private school coming from a HBCU and she's complained to me she doesn't feel attractive out there because it's majority white people, she never was the type to have dudes texting her or calling on some friendly shyt, unless it was for a group project at school, but I really don't want to hear about how she doesn't feel attractive, don't know what she expects me to say

Same goes for men vice versa.
