My father once advised me to "choose the woman whose faults you can live with." Over the years, I learned this short bit of advice contains several underlying elements of wisdom. First and most easily seen is that there are no fault-free women (or men for that matter). Secondly, there are faults you can accept, and faults that may be dealbreakers. This also challenged me to define what category potential faults I encounter will go. Finally, in order to truly see the faults, you often have to spend considerable time dating them to learn of them - in other words, don't rush into marriage. Revealing your true self to another requires trust, and trust takes time to establish.

Women understand very well that men use the ideal image of women to motivate themselves - and exploit that idea shamelessly

I can get over rejection.
Fear of false accusations is deeper though.

"Terror of being rejected" - exactly the right word, terror. I experienced it many times in my life and ended up in a bad marriage because I took the first women I had the courage to date.

One of the things I told both my children, "You Can Not Die of Embarrassment, there will be a time or two when you wish you would, but it will not kill you. Let it wash over you and when you do think about it, (because you will) try to see the humor in the situation"

I got 17 phone numbers out of 50 women I asked, and most took my number too. Now ...they won't stop calling me. Thanks Jordan!

I think it was Robin Williams in Good Will Hinting that said there is no perfect woman. You just need to find the woman that is perfect for you.

“Blah blah blah…” “Yes, dear. You are totally correct.” 😂

I'm already on the dark side. I don't care about women anymore. I see them for what they are. Female humans. They are not the answer to my problems. They are not the trophy for my achievements. They are not the embodiment of happiness. Just the female version of our species. As we are the male one.
I also know I am not able to have a family. Great part because I never really wanted to. It was the social pressure. But then, in the darkness of my solitude, I found someone else to love and care for. Myself. I'm not chasing the perfect girl anymore. Just the perfect me.

Sometimes relationships turn into a never ending task. You basically are on a treadmill looking for appreciation which never occurs. This can go both ways and think it’s part of human nature. Amazing how love and respect rarely come into the picture .

I asked as many women out back in 1988, a friend of mine and I had a competition on who could get rejected the most in one night, I think I got 55 rejections, which meant that I won!

It's very hard when you've grown up thinking you'll get married and have a family. Only to grow up and achieve none of those things and the way it is today it's never gonna happen. Sometimes I really struggle with that

I got so used to rejection that when someone shows genuine affection to me and for me it catches me off guard. It's one of the many reasons I love my wife. She knows my flaws yet she still loves me whereas every other woman I attempted to get to know romantically saw my flaws and ran because I wasn't their ideal man. My wife and I embrace each other's flaws rather than running from them because we realize that our flaws are part of what drew us to each other in the first place.

Miss America is a beauty contest, not a math contest.

Funny Jorden is saying you can never have the ideal woman, but I have heard of a lot of women saying that they should not settle and that women consistently rate themselves higher than average.

It is difficult to approach or be approached in situations like bars, where the attraction is obviously only one’s appearance. If more people could meet in places like public service, classes, church, or clubs, they would be able to have similar interests and see each other in action. Also references by a trusted friend or family member might help. Otherwise you’re flying completely blind as far as character, which is very important.

Sometimes that "image of perfection" leads more to jealousy and competition.

That game, asking 50 women out to get over the fear of rejection, was something SimplePickup used to teach back in the day. They'd say we should actually aim to get rejected, celebrate it, learn to enjoy it, because it's going to happen a hell of a lot. There was an excellent line from one of them, which works for approaching women, interviews, all sorts of things where you tell yourself not to bother because they're out of your league, "They have enough reasons to reject you, don't add more." They also had an ongoing challenge where at any time and in any place they would tell each other to do 10 push ups, which they had to do with no hesitation and no argument, to combat the fear of looking stupid. Ego, pride, whatever it is, only gets in the way.

The worst is when it's a total "one-way street" and the guy can't find the strength (i.e. self-respect) to just let go and move on. Always a painful scenario.

One time I came across a poll that said “Would you date a female cartoon character?” My response was “No, but I would date the actress or model of one.” Those characters live in very flexible realities and never age, while actresses and models are actual human beings who live in the real world.
