They are a different generation, stop trying to put our generation's life on them.
Your girl can be a whole happy person as a teen without a boyfriend.

Clearly the way our generation did dating eventually led to 50% divorce rate and many % of those who stay married are unhappy. Maybe our kids' generation can do it better!



Why should people interact at all ?

This planet already has TOO MANY PEOPLE.

This. I'm learning of how important this is. They really are a different generation and we shouldn't be expecting our kids to date the way we did when we were teens in the 80s or 90s. We need to let it go.

My teen boy said to me: "I want to be the damsel. Girls should ask me out!"

I thought this was really funny.

Social media = teens are under a microscope. Constantly.

Every second of every day.

What they wear, what they dare to say out loud, what they post: all of it can and will be “shared” all over school” - potentially forever. The phone-camera is always there and is always watching.

Why would any teen boy risk the humiliation?

I have no idea what is wrong with these boys and why they are so scared of girls. She said a ton of girls liked him in high school, but she described him as an enigma. He had absolutely no clue and I mean none that anyone could possibly be interested in him.



They are not “scared of girls.” They are scared of false accusations of lack of consent or even accusations of date.-rape.

Why bother?


Okay #boymom

Look up percentages of false accusations vs the actual assaults

I think woman still need to be scared.

You are a CLOWN

Umm the internet and screens to stare at 24/7 instead. A bunch of introvert perverted boys looking up porn and using their hand. No need to socialize and get to know girls.

And the ones that do either get into a long term commitment because they are too lazy to care or become players

Boys are very reluctant because they fear being rejected and mocked in today’s social media world.

If a boy were to “ask a girl out,” there is an enormous chance it’s going to be put on Social
Media.

Then the whole school knows.

No teen boy would risk that.

Honestly, why would any teen boy in America in 2024 risk asking a girl out? They have made it such that’s it’s just not worth it.

I tell you what, the confident guy that is willing to take a chance and ask out some girls can really rake in this climate.

My son has liked a few girls over the years but he has zero interest in going to a dance and therefore will not ask a girl to one. He has had many girls over the years initiate dating (or whatever it’s called these days) and he has often appreciated the girl making the first move. I think it’s important for girls to realize that they don’t have to be completely passive if they like someone. I agree about the pressure to do fancy proposals discouraging boys from asking girls to dances.
