Women never approach first so I don't want to embarrass myself
>>34488944*repeated* short glances, laughing noticeably way too hard at your jokes, noticeably long eye contact with no blinks if you're talking to her, "deer in headlights" eyes when you talk to her, being positioned towards you especially if you two are in a group of people (not turning her feet or torso away from your direction even if someone else is talking to her). her asking questions back and generally acting the opposite of the "girl giving one-word answers" stereotype.
>>34488950Wtf do women ever act like that? I might be uglier than I thought.
>>34488965NTA, but yeah. Though they might also think that you're a nice guy and a safe source of attention that they can easily milk. And you'll still embarrass yourself when you take them seriously.
>>34488969Of course you are, xer.
>>34488969i have a coworker that behaves exactly like that towards me, we are in the same team so we got split because the bosses noticed. i´m now in limbo because we get 30seconds of interaction per day. i don´t even know if she has a boyfriend and can´t just ask in our work environment
>>34488950>never got any of thisTch. Whatever happens...happens.
>>34488987maybe you don't notice it/they hide it well enough. enough guys have been interested in me where i had absolutely no idea they ever possibly found me attractive because they definitely didn't act that way, that i've realized a lot of people are good at hiding attraction.
>>34488993>maybe you don't notice it/they hide it well enough.Possibly. I do catch girls glancing at me but then they look away right after.>enough guys have been interested in me where i had absolutely no idea they ever possibly found me attractive because they definitely didn't act that wayFor me, it's a confidence issue. When I was a kid I got diagnosed with Alopecia and lost all of my hair during middle school. I got bullied heavily for it and I think that's when my confidence tanked to the basement. It still affects me even though all of my hair grew back. Shit sucks. I dont even approach or talk to women, I'm always assuming that they'll say "no thanks" or lie and say "I have a boyfriend".
>>34489007oh yeah i never blame people who got bullied for not having enough confidence to openly approach someone, i got bullied too. glad you got your hair back though that must've been rough as an actual kid.
If you can't tell it means it never happened to you.
>>34488982Don't ask her if she has a boyfriend.Next time you get your 30 seconds, say something like "it sucks they split us up. You made working here so much fun. Can I get your number?"Go for it, anon. She WANTS you to ask. She is giving you all the signals.
>>34489007I catch girls looking at me sometimes, they're invariably making some variation of this face
>>34489125For me it's this face. I then smile at them and they look away. Women are very confusing gender :(
>>34488944>How do women generally show interestIf she laughs at your bad jokes, she's into you.
>>34488944most women are insecure so they will never outright approach you. even the confident ones will make it really obvious that they like you but will give you opportunities to ask them out instead of blatantly asking you out. it is just how women work, they want to feel wanted.they will give "the look" where their head is looking forward but their eyes are looking up at you, unbroken eye contact, finding opportunities to be near you, laughing at your jokes anyways, they will
>>34491572>even the confident ones>still wont ask you outOxymoron.
>>34489542They give me some variation of this look most of the time.
>>34495624>picrelatedI've seen her roasted beef
>>34488944Whenever I try to show interest in a man, I typically try to appear friendlier and more approachable so he can make a move first or such, or I try to appeal to similar interests that we have, or even just find random ways to get to speak to him.
>>34488944If they seem asexual around you its because you're seen as unattractive. They become whores in the presence of the right guy, I've seen it myself. Used to work as a bartender for a while, the behavior I've seen was enough to blackpill me for life. Even the shy, mousy ones become whores that grope and grind. Those same girls act like royalty in the presence of their beta male friends and they even get offended and disgusted if anything related to sex comes out of the mouth of a man they don't find attractive. If a girl is ever acting appalled at the mention of women even so much as having a libido, its because the man that's even so much as going into that topic without being attractive, is deemed as a creep instantly. They will try to shame you into going back where you belong in their imagined hierarchy. They don't want ugly men seeing them as the whores that they know they are, especially in friend groups. If the ugly ones found out the girls were giving ass to their attractive male friends, that could potentially open them up to approaches from those same betabuxx friendzoned guys and they couldn't explain away the dynamic without social incrimination.
>>34496607Whats the point of this copy pasta? to demoralized men?
>>34495253It's not remotely an oxymoron though.You're assuming the reason women aren't asking you out is because they lack the confidence to do so despite apparently wanting to. That's a massive projection on your part.
>>34496630How about the bitter truth?
