At what point is this evident though? The burden of initiation is always on the man so 9 times out of 10 we're initiating anyway.Dont hit up a chick that only talks to or text you when you intiate it. Smh
It ain't just you and it ain't just Toronto. At the end of the day the prevailing forces in 21st century relationships, casual or not, are lust, entertainment, and drama. Have the raw physical/aesthetic magnetism, possess and display your resources and knowledge in multiple fields, and the activity level and nonchalance to keep them at arm's length, clamoring for more and chasing. And that's on top of the jadedness and delusions prevalent in them.To all my dudes 30 years old and below I think we have to adjust our expectations when dealing with women of the same kind. I've come to learn and accept that most women nowadays are just not interested in building with somebody from the ground up or dating traditionally. Maybe its just in Toronto, but you'll be hard pressed to find a woman with the qualities that any man of respect would want in his woman. If you have graduated from university/college and havent built some sort of solid relationship with a girl good luck. Even the ones that you think do/might have the qualities you look for in a woman are often so jaded or delusional when it comes to men and their expectations that it is just too hard get anywhere with them. Getting your foot in the door is one thing...hell...even fukking them is one thing (its easy as hell). But to build a steady, fruitful, long lasting relationship...the kind that takes effort and patience? It is damn near impossible. And it doesnt matter how good of a catch you think you are either. It dont matter how educated, good looking/fit, funny, gentlemanly you are. It don't matter what job you got. It dont matter what you drive. It dont matter how much bread you got. It dont matter where you live. Between the jadedness, delusion and overall mentality that the average girl has nowadays its just very difficult.
But hey...maybe its me
This is why no matter what I'm told on here, I'm not playing till I have every good card in hand. Till I'm a 7'5" guard with a 50" inch vertical and the wet jumper from the other 3 point line. Till I'm a 6'8" 320 pound linebacker with a 4.2 40, 60 reps on the bench and a 50 Wonderlic. If your birth year is 199X as male you might as well stack every advantage possible, more so if you're a "late bloomer".
