Same thing here.



You know very very very little about men if you think they wouldnt bang you.


PP you replied to. That's not the question, actually, and you are very wrong if you start thinking about men-women relations from that angle. The problem for most people is that even if they're interested, they are conditioned not to ask for inappropriate things. Apart from a few desperate guys, most married men I interact with would never, in a billion years, suggest anything untoward, even if they enjoy my company and find me attractive (something a lot of them signal, but not in explicit terms).

In other words, it's socially acceptable to sublimate your desires into non-sexual interactions. And those interactions, the vast majority of the time, do not lead to sex.






50% of all marriages end due to infidelity. You don't have to like being wrong, but you are.

Let's say you're a man in this situation and want to take things further. What do you do or say? I'm roughly in OP's situation fairly often, maybe once or twice a week. I wasn't a big lady's man when I was younger but now I've got a bit of a silver fox thing going. I'm not sure how to actually talk to women in stores, at crosswalks, etc.

Why would they wonder about him doing the exact same thing they are doing?


DP.

Because he is roaming around aimlessly staring at them as if he needs help. He was behaving as if he was out of his element so they kept wondering what he was doing there and if he will ask for the help he appeared to need.


Oh. You were there and saw all this?


Just as OP is projecting his nature unto these women, I am projecting mine. If a seemingly responsible man kept looking my way while I was shopping, I'd assume he needs help and is about to ask me a question.

Keep your wives satisfied, gentlemen, or someone will.

So you’re that skeevy guy creeping out women who are just trying to go about their day.

How do you know these men have these desires? I tend to assume people are just being nice because I am nice and friendly to others without any sexual tension/desires. And I know some genuinely nice men too who are equally nice to women across the board, attractive or not.

If I walk into a room full of people, I expect to get looks and conversation starters because we’re all human beings and that’s what you do when you’re stuck in a room with people?? Unless you’re in a literal queue or a waiting room, you make small talk.


Lots of people talk in line or in a waiting room as well. I was waiting in line at a bakery the day before Thanksgiving and I'd never seen so many strangers talking to each other.

PP. World Market is not a typical stomping ground for men.
