Some women have never been told no. It can be more fun than saying yes sometimes though.

It's funny, I has this exact scenario play out with a guy friend in college. It ruined our friendship. We were friends for maybe two years at that point and I was taken aback because I never saw him as anything but a friend and he even had a girlfriend at the time!

After that exchange, he got so awkward the friendship fell apart. We still had classes together but he avoided me and I was not pressed to be near him, so we never saw each other again after that semester.

IME the vast majority of women have no clue how to react to being rejected, because it almost never happens to them. As such, nearly all react badly or maladaptively regardless of conditions.

Conversely, for most men they have to endure rejection hundreds if not thousands of times before they strike it lucky. The small cohort that become maladaptive do so due to other social/societal reasons associated with the rejection, but vanishingly few react maladaptively purely because of the rejection.

You're totally right there's absolutely no evidence of a vast majority of women being physically attacked or assaulted after rejecting a man who couldn't handle rejection...

Also if you got a thousand rejections before getting one yes then that might be a huuuge reason to look at yourself and how you come across. Hundreds of thousands of rejections have to be because of the person themselves, not the hundreds or thousands of people rejecting them.

Bruh, who the fuck is being rejected "hundreds, if not thousands" times? Maybe some people are, but thats such a red flag that I would argue then maybe they should change their approach in the first place.

Maybe you are exaggerating (it just makes you sound a bit like an incel, apologies), and I probably would argue men do get rejected more then woman, because men are still (mostly) expected to make the first move, but like you don't need experience handling rejection to not have a violent rage fit.

Edit: I have read another one of your replies down the chain, and uh yeah you definitely do sound a lot like an incel.

Yea... I'm well into middle age and I've been rejected like a dozen or so times maybe. I'm not sure how you get rejected 100s or 1000s unless you're just swinging at everyone in your vicinity that happens to have a vagina. Maybe try talking to them first and see if there's some chemistry there before going for a date..

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

I'm in my 30s and probably at over 100 rejections like, total in my life. I've never been looking for long term relationships so I do try with a larger number of women than most men. But like...hundreds of rejections between success? That's absurd. You'd run out of women.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 3 weeks ago

Tell that to the surprisingly large number of men who threaten fucking violence against a girl for not wanting to go out with them.

I'm not saying you're entirely wrong, but it's not the only side of the story. Generally all people are really bad at handling emotions with other people, we need to make a stronger effort to turn these criticisms inward and figure out if our fears of other people are justified.

Well, the female friend basically said 'I am so hot anyone I want (for example you) would love to have me as a girlfriend'.

By denying that, he denied her self worth.

Of course, her stance doesn't take into account things like personal preference or matching personalities.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 weeks ago

Or a less generous read: 'you're not attractive enough to get with anyone as hot as me so you couldn't turn me down'.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 3 weeks ago

Or how unattractive that mindset itself is. It's like the opposite of a self-fulfilling prophecy.

There is a very fitting song for this.

Garbage - Stupid Girl

Stupid Girl Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You pretend you're high

Pretend you're bored

Pretend you're anything

Just to be adored

And what you need

Is what you get

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't believe in fear

Don't believe in faith

Don't believe in anything

That you can't break

[Chorus]

You stupid girl (Ah)

You stupid girl (Ah)

All you had, you wasted (Ah)

All you had, you wasted (Ah)

[Verse 2]

What drives you on (Drives you on)

Can drive you mad (Drive you mad)

A million lies to sell yourself

Is all you ever had

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't believe in love

Don't believe in hate

Don't believe in anything

That you can't waste

[Chorus]

You stupid girl (Ah)

You stupid girl (Ah)

Can't believe you fake it (Ah)

Can't believe you fake it (Ah)

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't believe in fear

Don't believe in pain

Don't believe in anyone

That you can't tame

Basically, if this is a representative sample of this girl's personality ...

(huge if there, this is a single 4chan post lol)

... then she is a textbook narcissist, potentially to the point of being diagnosable with NPD if she doesn't grow out of this attitude, get a reality check that actually sinks into the subconscious.

A spoiled, pampered brat whose never been told no, who never gets any real, meaningful interaction or validation, and tries to fill that void with a grandiose self image, absurd overconfidence and privelege.

Angelica from Rugrats.

...And my take here would be the same if the genders/sexes were reversed, or some other combo.

It is pretty not normal for anybody to have that kind of interaction with anybody else, to just boisterously state they could have 'insert random person', then have rando anon just flatly reply 'sorry not interested', ... and then throw a giant hissy fit.

I am seriously hoping this interaction occures between 12 or 14 year olds, but looking at the horror kaleidoscope that is social media these days?

Yeah, could be anybody, any age, at this point.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 weeks ago

So many comments giving OP advice on how to get into a relationship with the girl. Has a single person here, at all, considered that maybe, just maybe, OP genuinely didn't want a relationship with this girl..?

I also think deflecting with "nah you couldn't" would be funny in the right context. Follow it with a joke about increasing her powerlevel first and you're good

[–] [email protected] 22 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

I'm sure everyone has their own answer to this question but I would really like her to clarify, what do you mean 'have me'?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago

I think the better clarification we need to make is that this is 4chan and thus utterly made-up bullshit, or designed to further an agenda.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 weeks ago

Please let it be pegging

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago

Why doesn't that happen to me?
