The ship dynamic of "friends-to-lovers" is my jam (including its variant "enemies to friends to lovers"), but that doesn't mean EVERY pairing has to turn romantic after some magic time limit. If you want to be romantic with someone, just COMMUNICATE your intentions early on, unless feelings change later, but if they do change, be honest and direct. Acting friendly with some secret intentions? That's some predator shit.

When my little sister and I were teens, we'd often just go driving around at like 3am on a Saturday or something. We'd sometimes go to stores, and the amount of times that GROWN MEN would approach her and not back down when she said she was 16 was absurd. She's always put value in being as put together as she can be, so she's gotten a lot of unwanted attention from creeps over the years. And no one would respect when I'd step in and tell them to fuck off, so I often had to threaten to inflict pain upon these weirdos. At some point, a guy asked if we were lesbos, my sister said yeah (thinking that'd get him to go away) and this guy proceeds to tell a 16 year old how he could "fix" her. I threatened to castrate him in that Walmart if he didn't walk away right then. Almost all of these men made comments about how they're nice, a catch, and/or know how to treat a woman right any time I'd yell at them. Any guy who says he's nice is not, in fact, nice. That's the kind of person you need to get tf away from.

All the "friendzone" things make me so depressed. I'm demisexual, so I'm only capable of developing any kinds of feelings after developing a strong bond with somebody, which takes years. That's not to say I automatically fall in love with my friends after 2 years, but I literally cannot develop any feelings of attraction before that point. This stupid friendzone mentality is the reason I've only ever had the opportunity to develop attraction to guys I met in middle school, because that's how freaking far back I have to go to have had guy friends who didn't expect anything adult and get bent out of shape about it when that's not the case :(

About why "take [the woman] out on a date" feels more uncomfortable than phrasing it as "go out on a date", it's because "take" as a verb gives all the power to the subject (i.e. the person speaking) and makes the object (in this case the woman, grammatically speaking) completely powerless. When you ask someone if they want to go on a date with you, you're giving them the opportunity to refuse; if you're taking someone anywhere, it gives the impression that you're in complete control and it's implicitly removing any sense of agency from the woman in question. Also..."I am an anomaly".

I agree, but would also add a physical level to this on top of the language subjective/objective point. To be "taken on a date" implies the traditional way of dating, where the guy picks the girl up in his car and drives them somewhere, as opposed to meeting them in a public place like a cafe or the cinema. While most men probably don't mean to kidnap or force women into anything once they get them into their cars, it just doesn't come out as romantic anymore. Many of us women would much rather meet the guy somewhere safe first, and have means to make our own way home if things don't work out. And never have to even tell the guy our address until we know them a bit better.

The words he actually used to say what he meant (rather than phrasing it as "I'd pay, if you like" which would still allow the woman an opportunity to refuse or offer to pay an equal share) gives the person saying it all the power within the relationship and when it comes to 'Nice Guys', him paying for the date also more often than not would lead to him thinking he's then automatically entitled to anything he wants just because he was "nice" and paid for the date...without having given the woman the option of paying in the first place. Also, nowadays paying for a meal or ticket anywhere is more of a negotiation rather than the man just being expected to pay everything. It's difficult to explain because it really is more about what words were used rather than being about exactly what the guy meant but everything about the way he phrased it gives off quite big red flags. As well as all the other red flags in that interaction.

When I was 15/16 I was definitely a nice guy and if the Internet was as it is today, probably would have been drawn down the incel rabbit hole. One thing I'll never EVER understand though is when you get rejected and just start hurling abuse. Yeah I would get rejected and be all "urgh but I'm a nice guy, she only wants to date assholes" TO MYSELF. But I genuinely viewed myself as a nice guy and always believed that being mean and aggressive to someone was the total opposite of a nice guy, so I would just either leave the conversation or (which you should not do) just continue being friends with that person until they would fall in love with me (which they won't, they have told you their feelings, remaining in a friendship when your goal is more, especially after they have told you they aren't interested in you that way, is just creepy and its really demeaning to the person) Anyway, I grew up, realised that women don't owe me anything, realised I can just be friends with women, worked on my own personality and view points. And now I have a nice social circle and a beautiful partner who I love very much and makes me feel very loved also.

Question on this. I have a not quite 15 year old son. He's a fairly typical nerdy boy who has (outside of the situation below) no female friends. Also no sisters or close female cousins. The one exception is that he has been doing kickboxing for 2 years and at the gym he goes to there is a really high number of girls in the youth program and women in the adult programs. In particular he is quite close to the gym owner's daughter who is two years younger than him. Is female friendship from a young age and through the early teen years helpful for young men in understanding women as humans and avoiding incel and "nice guy" types of thinking? Or is that something guys have to work out at an older age? Thanks ahead of time for any insight!

But at the end of the day be a positive male figure and show him how to respect others and how everyone is individual. You are asking these questions so automatically I think you are a great dad and I have all the faith that you are raising a great kid. Saying that as someone who is very much a nerd 😀

@@CorwinFoundI have a 17 year old and he had friends that were girls and a niece he was close to when he was younger so I figured we would be good because he was always close to them and had always just seen them as people.. sadly at 15ish his problematic grandparents and my husband started in with their stupid jokes about having crushes on some of them and then he just kind of stopped hanging out with them.. sadly by the time I had spoken to the husband about it and he had addressed it with his parents the damage was done and he was no longer comfortable with the girls in his friend circle.. he still talked to them online but no more hangouts.. we had a couple years of what I worried was the beginning of “the incel age” where he would come out with comments about “divorce being unfair to men” and complaining that girls at school were annoying and trying to trigger me because I’m a feminist and woke and we were in trump era. Now he has a few girls he hangs out with that like him and one that wanted to be his girlfriend but he is not really into any of them.. he has chilled out on the triggering me stuff.. It seems to me that if they have early friendships and the foundation of respecting women the incel stuff online may be fun for a bit but it doesn’t stick and he seemed to be performing it but not really buying into it.
I once was at a book fair with one of my best friend (we're both female presenting). We were leaving, and suddenly a guy approaches us trying to give us information on some sort of organisation we were not interested in. We said we had to leave. A friend of his got closer and closer, look at us in the eyes and quite creepily goes "ehi, you won't even listen to what this nice and cute guy has to say?" It was EXTREMELY uncomfortable, to the point I panicked, put my arm around my friend's shoulders and started dragging her away yelling at them "WE'RE LESBIAN BYE". They tried following us to the bus station but luckily we got on a bus immediately, and I heard one of them calling us bitches. Yes, such nice guys they both were👌
Oh, I accidentally married a nice guy. Really didn't realize because I genuinely thought he was nice. Found out years into the relationship that he didn't see women as equals and only did n8ce things to be viewed as nice. I already was supposed to see him as nice, so i no longer got the nice treatment and he went after all the other girls. I left.

And PLEASE do not come by just to look in/check for the person. IT IS NOT OKAY. If you are not a known friend, partner, or family member just do not do it.

Too many of these guys have only experienced romance through NPC romance arcs in video games and it shows.
I’m part of a niche kink community online where generally the guys are the ones with the kink and the women are more often the content creators, etc. I’m a woman, one with this kink, and so I’m a little unusual because so often the other women like me get scared off by entitled “nice guys” just like these getting extremely sexually aggressive (even less patient because they see their dating pool as only being within this community, which is … skewed). They then create their own scarcity because “there’s no one to date who’s like them”. The perfect example of one of these types found my profile, saw that I’m in a relationship and unavailable, and went into a rage about it. Me, a total stranger, I was apparently the one responsible for his loneliness because “you’re ALL taken!” The lack of self-awareness is shocking and profound and very deeply layered.
I once had a former coworker years ago who had the nice guy mentality. I'm a guy myself. I was in my early 20s, so while I understood his thinking was wrong, I didn't understand why. After hearing so many nice guy stories over the years, I now realize why I got such a "creep" vibe from him. The idea that doing something nice for someone and that they will reciprocate with a social interaction or physical touch is odd.
Convo about the guy creeping after his sister in law and her wife. 'Your brother's a dick but at least I didn't have to grow up with him' 'at least he never hit on me'.

Dude, happens all the time. The last time it happened to me, just a few years ago, I was utterly DEVASTATED. Bc all along I thought he was interested in what I had to say, like a friend; and wanted to hang bc we had things in common, like a friend. This is someone I would see 2-3 times a week, every week, text with him every day. Then he asked me out. I said no... then he completely ghosted me. Just all that time as friends gone, like it was nothing. It was heartbreaking to think a man saw me as a real person, only to learn he was just bidding his time. It made me so depressed that the "men and women can't be friends" cliche was real. That I was so disposable just bc I wouldn't sexually service him. That I finally let my guard down and let a man in my friends circle, and he proved all the negative stereotypes to be true. And until then, he really was a nice guy. He had all of us (a group of about 5 women) fooled. Knew how to act appropriately around women, never leered or made innuendos or anything uncomfortable. All my female friends enjoyed hanging out with him bc he was "such a great guy." Then *bang* dirtbag. At least he didn't call me names or put me down - he just stopped talking to me. I think these kinds of "nice guys" are so self absorbed that it doesn't occur to them how crushing or angering it can be to experience such dehumanization like that.

This reminds me of when I was telling my ex-boyfriend a "Nice Guy" story from my past which made me realize my ex was a "nice guy," too. The story is that I was drinking with friends, and this man who was a friend of a friend to me was talking about a woman from his work who was always saying no when he would invite her out to places. He would say he wasn't romantically interested in her but then kept going on about how he kept offering, how he's a nice guy, what's wrong with her, why is she being so anti-social, etc. After several minutes of his monologue, I couldn't stand it anymore, and I calmly said "Maybe you aren't such a nice guy...." He was PISSED, but I thought I had a point and wasn't really being mean, and I didn't say anything more than that. So I was telling my then-boyfriend this story and that I was kinda proud that I called it out (Because I am an anomaly! :P).

The one dude who gave the “juicy” mammoth rant, he was talking about intelligence but going after a mammoth that is “juicy” implies one that is big and in good health, I would say that lacks any intelligence. Humans would go after smaller, weaker, sickly, or all of those types of mammoths because they had a better chance of taking them down with less injuries or deaths, we were much smaller and weaker than them and we didn’t have that good enough weapons to take them down. Taking on a fully healthy mammoth in it’s prime is mind numbingly dumb. Also, fun fact, it’s been found that most hunting parties consisted of men and women because at the end of the day when you’re looking for food and that food just so happens to be an extremely large and deadly animal, you’ll take all the help you can get. Also, most of our food during that period came from food that was gathered. Hunting was not a sustainable enough way to get us food so gathering plants was a more consistent and safer option. Ironically, one of the biggest steps forward for humanity was farming because it gave us a pretty consistent food source that allowed us to stay in one place and build it up. I know I would very off track but I find human history to be absolutely insane….

A sickly mammoth would likely make you sick if you eat it. We don't eat sick animals. The intelligence would come in in _how_ we hunt the mammoth.

R proceeded to make a whole thread on Twitter lying about her. He accused her of cheating, manipulating him and sending death threats which she didn't even do. He proceeded to harass her and got his friends to do it too. She got so ill she couldn't eat and ended her life (also due to other things going on). He didn't even care she was gone. It's been a few years and I miss her a lot. Still hate that guy.

That's awful. I hope you're in a good place
23:27 Depending on the relation between you two you can make a sexual joke to a girl. It really depends on the context, how well you know each other and a few other things. I for example once made a joke like this to a girl I know which she thought was funny (I would tell the joke but it’s difficult to translate it to English). This doesn’t mean you can just go round making these kind of jokes to people, you can do it as long as you are considerate with it. And if the other person doesn’t like it then apologise

True. Even before transitioning to present as a woman, even before I came out as trans, I would make jokes about my girl friends and how hot they were. Things like my friend asking how she looked and my response being "like a snack" or her asking how her clothes looked and my response being "almost as good as they'd look on my floor". We made jokes like this to eachother a lot, but it was always clearly a joke. Also you can totally hit on your girl friends, just make sure you've established yourself as someone that is actually fine with that not being reciprocal and make sure you are genuinely okay with being friends and nothing else. I've told a lot of friends I've had crushes on them, asked a few out on dates. Never once did it ruin a friendship, because I wasn't just using friendship to get close to them, I valued the friendship as much as I would have valued any other relationship with them. (this also actually meant I had a greater chance of getting a yes to things like fwb or whatever because I was comfortable in myself and put the friendship first)
I love how Jamie adopted the phrase "Adult fun time" from OT
Every time I don't meet those long dating criteria it feels like a total success
You'd think you'd expect less of a chance with Hooter's waitresses since they are used to having guys falling over them trying to desperately get with them.

I love how they said that they're nice guys then start to insult everyone 😭
Oh Jamie, you're kidding yourself, that guy means 28 because he thinks that's old
Nice guys: girls just don't know how it feels to be rejected because people aren't attracted to them Also nice guys: you girls better not be fat or have short hair because I won't be attracted to you Also, of course I am an anomaly 😂
As a 21 year old guy who's never even kissed a girl, I understand the anger at the situation of not having a girlfriend, but you CANNOT be angry at women for not wanting to go out with you, and you definitely aren't entitled to anybody you like. These people are only hurting their chances at getting someone by being creepy assholes.

It honestly feels like an entire generation of guys grew up on 90's rom com movies while being pampered by their parents, and then realizing that the real world is wildly different, has just devastated them from being beyond emotionally stable.

Married to an actual nice guy. But that's not how he described himself, or how I would describe him. "Nice" is the lowest acceptable bar of humans. If the only positive word you can describe yourself with is "nice" in your profile, then bad luck. Try actually focusing your energy on falling in love with what you're passionate about, then meet someone who also loves that. If you're attracted to each other, yay! If you're not, then you've just made a great friend! Some people need to go outside and touch grass once in a while.

Holy cow, that was a lot of dirtbag (and potentially sex criminals) in one sitting ... and yet it all feels so familiar and common. Like "oh yeah, had that one" ... "oh, and that one too" ... "see that one daily." But for realsies, it's kind of terrifying that this kind of anger and entitlement to women is so common and widespread. It's a combo that progresses to sexual assault and date rapist; it's not just dickweeds complaining about not getting to possess a woman they want. These kinds of guys can develop from asshole to real threat. I mean, I literally once had a guy spend 10 min telling me he was a nice guy for not sexually assaulting women, even though they deserve it in their short skirts and drinking. It's kinda scary being a woman sometimes. There was a great meme about this topic going around about 10 years ago - unfortunately I can't remember the author - and it always comes up in these "nice guy" scenarios. It said: Friend zoning isn't real Because women are not machines You put kindness coins in Until sex falls out. I may not have gotten that exactly right from memory, but I thought it was brilliant and quote it often

6:52 this one made me saaaaaad. I had a friend similar to this. I constantly had to excuse to him why I wasn't interested in dating him, "even though we were such good friends", like what?? And it made me feel as though if I ever did date another guy he'd react just like this. It ended up pushing me away so much that we barely spoke. He was also a bit of a dick about me telling him I was non binary and that was the end of that friendship.

Oh and p.s you do not owe anyone an explanation as to why a friendship or relationship is ending, ever. It's polite, sure, if you feel you want to and you can do, do. But they aren't *owed* closure from you, they aren't *owed* you're emotional labour to help them feel better or learn or whatever. Or worse, get a chance to win you back once you've made up your mind. It's a kind thing to do, but I didn't feel I needed to explain myself to this person who had hurt me, I just stopped contacting them. And funnily enough, they didn't chase me after the enby thing. Hm. 🙃

@@frolikswfroggys6416 Ehhh, we're not that unique as animals, that's just a lingering belief from the Human Stewardship concept of Christianity. We're also not the only animals to eat cooked foods. For example in Australia a lot of carnivores will feast readily on the charred remains of animals caught in bushfires, some of our hawks even set fires by carrying burning twigs away from other fires. A whole lot of birds and apes use tools. Most animals communicate and have surprisingly complex languages. We're not even the only animal to have sapience, since Octopodes have been shown to have a comparable intellect and dolphins have been shown to express sapience as well. Even the idea of humans having emotions that other animals don't falls apart as soon as you study other social animals. We're not special as a species, not really, just more destructive in our building habits. (we also aren't the only builders, even insects build things, often more efficient and sturdy things than we can)
