Failure to find a girlfriend

Maybe if you try to be friends with women first, you might get somewhere.
Even if she agrees to that, her current boyfriend might take away all the attention and she would focus on him and forget me. Just "friends", especially with young women in Israel at around age 20 - 30, is a difficult thing to do. With all the crap women are busy with here and large amount of friends she possibly has, she would forget me pretty fast.

Many other things remain unknown. Most women didnt explain to me why. And to be honest with you, I asked "why?" every time.

It was like, mostly, a short statement like "Because I dont feel good about this" or something similar to that. And as you know, that doesnt explain much, obviously.
I would avoid asking why if I were you. It could make a person feel uncomfortable. If she shares why on her own, that’s fine. If not, that should be respected and you should just let her go.Quote:

Not wanting to date you is not a “problem.” People are free to date or not date whoever they wish. You are sounding a bit entitled here.Stop asking random strangers on dates. It’s weird and would make most people uncomfortable except in extraordinary circumstances (which has never happened to me). I’ve never agreed to date random people who’ve asked me out.

Oof. That's the most backhanded transgender comment I've seen in ages. Simultaneously recognizing how they identify, while maintaining that "identification" does not other gender make.
Awesome.

Or she might be willing to make time for you.

Asking on the street, I agree. But are you seriously saying I shouldnt ask, even if I have met her at workplace, studies, social gatherings, etc? Or are you saying there's a way to ask I'm not paying attention to, which increases chances of her agreeing to stay in touch.

You can ask people out when you already know them, but you should look for signs of interest. If someone doesn’t seem that interested in you, then don’t ask her out. Asking out more women does not increase your chances. Think: quality over quantity.

I can say it could be lack of smiling sometimes, but is that seriously something that can piss women off, or disappoint other women?
"Piss off"? Not really. "Disappoint"? Maybe, especially if your resting male face is a frown or scowl. Smiles work better.Noamx wrote:
I'm unemployed and I am also not studying anything. Does this have to do with starting a job / studies, is related to success with women?
Unemployment/underemployment would seem to indicate a lack of ambition. Not pursuing an education is maybe less so.Again, it seems women tend to check men out from a distance, and to make their judgements long before a man gets close enough to engage in conversation.

If you can’t keep a person’s interest for a friendship, I’m not sure how you think that romance would work.
I’d work on cultivating friendships for now.

Are there situations where its worth asking on the street, bus stations, train stations, inside shops, stores, malls, etc.? Or all women would probably think its weird if I tried in these places, and would probably not agree to give her phone number?
Are the chances really higher at workplace / college, or the place isnt necessarily increasing chances?
