I want the cake I have eaten back again. Give it to me wonder man who is rich and attractive yet can't see it and is strangely humble and shy.

The man she is looking for is the equivalent of an old man who has a run down farm that the city has been built all round. He thinks its a run down farm, she sees it as development land but buys it for the price of a run down farm. There may occasionally be some poor old farmer she can rip off but she will never rip off an attractive rich man in his prime like that. Rich attractive men know their value. She is a run down farm. Was probably very fertile decades ago but now the desert is advancing and there is mostly sand in the valley bottom where once fresh streams always ran. She is a bargain lot now, she can't trade for prime real estate. She would be best sold at auction to someone experienced and ready to go, who knew how to squeeze the last drops out of anything.

The other day I went on a coastal walk with a work friend (female). We both have dogs and I usually upload photos of my dog/ activities with dog to my Instagram story. I don’t commonly upload other people in my stories.

We were sitting down and I recorded a short IG story which captures my friend giggling abit (not capturing her face, just hand and abit of upper body), patting her dog, who looked happy , and then panning into my dog who also looked happy and then video ending with about two seconds of ocean.

After uploading that story a few people 2-3 asked who’s that etc. I didn’t think much of it at the time but now I’m not too sure how it will be perceived ie) friend or potential romantic partner etc, but given people asked who’s that etc, its probably more romantic.

For women I have on Insta that were interested in me, but I haven’t met yet or have met once - would I have shot myself in the foot? I’m not sure if it would be a sign for them to give up/ get turned off, or if it’s not that deep, or maybe it’s beneficial?

Would appreciate an independent opinion on the situation.

Holy fuck LOLOLOLOLOLOL

a'ight, let's start with her title

why are guys so timid nowadays?

1) it's not always timidity, but rather risk calculation

2) ever since the early 1990s at least, it's been beaten into our heads to make sure we aren't "harassing" you wahmynsfolk

3) endocrine disruptors in food, soap, laundry detergent, etc etc etc that suppress testosterone and boost estrogen

From within her video:

[made googly eyes at two guys who didn't try anything and if anything avoided her]

For my part, I've had that happen to me. I've been married since 2005. I've had that reaction for that reason.

For less experienced guys, just "looking them up and down and smiling" isn't enough. Since most women aren't that forward, most guys are going to suspect a trap of some sort.

This is why I'm involuntarily celibate

Looking like that?! Oh, no the fuck you aren't, bitch.
