Default Why are turnoffs turnoffs (women)

Yeah so I got turned down recently by a girl, and I made the mistake of being too keen (and appearing to be) in person, rather than being the confident chilled out guy she wanted.

But in this and the other long thread recently (about the guy who was friends for a month, u know the one) got me thinking.

Why does attitude towards the girl matter? Girls know that obviously in the initial stages, first few dates whatever, the guy is likely to behave a little differently through nerves or whatever. But biologicaly, evolution etc, surely if shes turning down a goodlooking/strong/clever person then she's making a mistake. Just because they came over too needy or werent sure exactly what to say? Why does this stuff even matter? Yes I know it does, but arent all animals supposed to maximise their chances of healthy offspring what the hell does a bit of neediness reflect anywa other than inexperience?

Case in point, one of my best college friends was a total afc and got turned down loads until he fluked his first girlfriend, after that he got another ons, then another, and now he's someone u wouldnt want near your girlfriend. But its the SAME GUY, same financial status/intelligence/looks/friends. Hes just a bit more suave when meeting girls he likes. Surely any girl that turned him down initially has made a biological mistake?

Thoughts appreciated.

she's not trying to maximise her chances of healthy offspring, she's trying to maximise her chances of healthy offspring that will be able to get laid with the best of other people's healthy offspring.

You don't satisfy this desire (remember the episode of the Simpsons when Selma wants to have a baby but still wont sleep with Hans Moleman lest she have a litter of blind, short little molemen walking around); you are Hans Moleman.

(or we could give up all the biological excuses/arguments and just face the truth that you acted desperate and, to quote Swingers, "scared off a nice baby who's ready to party.")

Girls want to be happy. If they can't stand you, they don't want your penis inside them.

ROCKET SURGERY.

This post is fundamentally flawed because the OP fails to give experience any value when in fact is the most supreme factor.

Maybe you are overestimating yourself? Just a thought.


Seriously though, it's human nature to become disinterested in things we take for granted. If someone is so incredibly available all the time, it's not exciting or challenging. It's like the battle is already won. I think this applies both to men and women.

You have to absolutely not care about women. You can take her or leave her, it doesn't matter to you. There is always another the corner.

When you truly feel this way and aren't trying to fake it, then you might have more success.

Well, that and stop trying to over analyze every relationship with women. Plus, I'd say that your perception of how desirable you are is probably much higher then reality.
