Why is dating easy for women, but hard for men?
Please read it! I mean sometimes women don't have to do anything but wake up and they get asked how by a bunch of girls and they have so many choices. But for men it seems like we have to put in so much effort and sometimes that effort leads to nothing or disappointment . Im assuming because men have to take the first step and pretty much do everything else, that's probably why it's so difficult and I kinda hate it.
Like this girl I like, she liked me too and we were talking and I was just about to ask her out and come to find out another day asked her out the day before and I feel sick because I was really into her and I was only talking to her because I thought it was right but apparently she was talking to another guy and it feels bad for me they are dating now happy ever after and I'm just sitting here feeling dumb. What should I do?
2 AnswersSingles & Dating3 years agoAll my friends in my group have girlfriends, and I feel alone.?
See I was able to hang out with my friends. They were single and we hung out a decent amount of time but now alot of my friends have are taken they barley act like hey even know me. I find it so hard to text them up now because they are always busy or just don't want to hang out with me. I guess I could try to get a girlfriend, it's been a struggle for me so I tried it just stick with my friends rather than force myself to get into a relationship but it seems like that's my last choice. I just wish my friends would still hang out with me like we used to. I feel like I've lost them. And it sucks
3 AnswersSingles & Dating3 years agoAll my real friends don't talk to me, only online ones?
This whole none of my friends have hit me up. I don't understand why we hang out so much at school and I talked other them about how I would like to hang out with them in the summer but they just hang out with other people and I just end up texting people at home. I don't know how to make new friends besides the people I already know. It just seems hard because most people don't really want to be friends like that and if I do with just talk they never seem to want to hang out with me or become close friends. I try so much and it never works I talk alot and I've talked less now because I'd be an interested person but that doesn't make a difference. People just don't like me it seems. Even when I hit them up first they are either busy or can't
1 AnswerFriends3 years agoWhat else is there to do in the summer besides swimming?
I love swimmer but going everyday isn't that fun. I usually stay inside and play video games but it's not good either. I would like to play basketball or something else but the courts are all outside and it's like 110 over here and it's only getting hotter. I need some other things to do, any?

8 AnswersLanguages3 years agoWhat can I talk about?
As a kid I was shy and now I'm in highschool and I a lot more confident talking but I can't see to talk about things. It's easy for me to ask how someone's day is or what they been up to but when it comes to 1 on 1 talking to someone's I can't. I just sit there and look around. I don't have much experience with it and nobody really comes up to me and talks so its up to me to go up to them and start it but it's so hard. I try so hard. I think about everything and I just can't think of anything to say. This has been a problem for years and it has caused me to become more of myself and just not try at all. But I'm at a point were I feel like I'm missing out a lot just because I can't have a conversation with someone. I need examples or a topic. It's so weird because I actually like socializing yet I can't do it at all. My siblings don't have this problem they all make friends with ease
2 AnswersSingles & Dating3 years agoWhy do people say I suck at basketball?
I'm not going to lie when I first started I could barley make a lay up. People said I sucked and I practiced hard by myself for months and now I can do anything still improving and learning new things. I play really good defense and people can rarely get past me just because I don't give up on the play. But for some reason they still say I suck. For example today we played a quick 4v4 I had grabbed all rebounds, 9 to be exact not to mention I'm 5'9 and they were taller and bigger, I had 3 assist, 4 points and defended the best players on the court. My team didn't even bother to defend people at all giving up free layups and they yell at me when i didn't lock up a guy at half court. I told everyone needs to step up and this guy yells at me and tells me to shut the f up and that "he scored all the points" so I did and I asked him who he wants me to guard. I guard best player again, 3 more rebounds, 2 points and 1 assist and 2 blocks, we won 21-17 and they still said I suck even though the guy scoring all the points went 7-22 fg. I just don't understand my effort is literally better than my whole team and they don't give me credit. It's as if every time I miss a shot they yell but the other guys go 0-4 and they get praised. I hate this. I literally work my *** off in the game but still try to keep it fun.Like honestly why me? I try my best and I feel like I do a decent job especially on defend and rebounds but nobody seems to care about that, they only look for points
5 AnswersBasketball3 years agoI've lost my best friend over someone else?
Please read if you're going to answer.
I was friends with him for 3 years going on to 4 now. We used to always hang out at school, talk online, I've went to his house a couple times. His family are all cool with me. So a few months ago he made another friend and I noticed he doesn't ever come up to me. I brought this up to him and he says he does but even when the other guy isn't there he still won't come up to me like he used to. He stopped texting me as much and I thought maybe we just needed space so I stayed back. And still another rmonth of being ignored he only says hi here and there but that's it. I'd walk up to him when he's talking to his other friend and he would just ignore me or say I'm annoying. Now recently I asked him what's did I do and he told me I'm being emotional and sensitive and I should just go hang out with my other friends and stop bothering him. So I feel like I'm thrown under the bus when I've did nothing but be a good friend. We used to buy each other stuff, I'd help him nd he did the same so I never see how this new guy could just make him do that. Then his new friend says that I'm jealous and my friend agreed with that and I just feel like I'm jjust trying to be a good friend and talk about it and figure things out but he says like I should just go away out of no where. What should I do
3 AnswersFriends3 years agoDo I have mood depression?
Honestly ever since my Dad hasn't been in my life from when I was 7 everything hasn't been good. Bad things happened, I've been lazy and depressed. A couple weeks ago I tried to kill myself, yesterday I was running in the street hoping someone would run me over. Like there are times I could be so happy and one little things happens and I'm sad and angry. At first I thought it was normal but I'm 16 now and I'm starting to think there is something wrong with me. It's very hard to explain but I seem to always carry a big headache with me when I'm also sad. It's like I don't care about my life or feelings. I'm just empty. And when I think about my life and past it doesn't help because most of it is bad or it was good and ended. I hate being like this because I love being happy but it seems like something always gets me.im too scared to talk about my past like it's too much. But I don't know what to do. It's just so much and I swear every year it's getting worst. I just want to fix this out before I really end up hurting myself. I'm not crazy but when these sad moods kick in I literally don't care about my life or anything else. I feel sick that I even feel like that. It's just getting bad and I don't know how to deal with this. People always tell me to not pay attention but I'm really concerned now because this stuff hits me deep everytime and I'm scared for my life. I don't want to life like this. I don't want people knowing me as someone like that can someone tell me what to do
2 AnswersMental Health3 years agoWould a child who was molested be more likely to go out and molest?
I ask this because it seems from many studies and cases that they're LIKELY. Now some poel get confused when I say more likely I mean they have a high chance of doing it, that doesn't mean every single child who was Molested would go out and do it I'm just saying even if it's just a small percentage does it effect those children who don't tell their parents or guardians about the situation? Because from my understanding it seems to be a cycle. Some children get help right after it happens but alot don't speak up and end up doing bad things to others and they think it's okay just because it happened to them. So my question really is "Are kids who are Molested and DONT speak up about the situation, do they have a HIGHER CHANGE of doing it to someone else who was their age?

1 AnswerYouTube4 years agoShould you be mad at your gf/bf or random guy or girl?
I never understood why like when a bf catches his gf having sex with a guy (who didn't know she had a bf) why does the bf try to beat up the guy? I'm not saying the bf should beat up his gf I'm just saying like in situations where the guy doesn't know the girl has a bf because she never told him, is it fair that the guy gets beat up? Or vise versa, why does the gf beat up the unsuspecting girl who didn't know the bf had a gf? Or in other cases in general why does the bf/gf get mad at the random person rather than their gf or bf?
Like I see it as two admins in a relationship. If one of then are caught cheating then that means it's one of the admins faults. See her I'm saying? Like if I caught my best friend having sex with my gf, I would be made at my best friend but mainly my gf because, unless my best friend FORCED my girl to do something like that, if would be my girls fault for APPROVING something like that. Someone can get into another person's relationship UNLESS one of the two admins ALLOW something like that to happen.
But like I was saying my first paragraph is about RANDOM people, second one is ABOUT BEST FRIEND so don't get them confused
3 AnswersSingles & Dating4 years agoWhat's your view/opinion on gay people?
My opinion: I feel like you can be whoever you want to be as long as you aren't HURTING anyone in anyway. Nothing wrong with liking the same gender. People always say it should be Girl and Guy but just because we can make babies with a girl and guy doesn't mean you MUST be with the opposite gender. It also doesn't give you the right to hate. Disliking gays is fine in my eyes but I think hate is just over the top.

4 AnswersSociology4 years agoShould i do drugs? They help me when i am depressed, sick, or just not feeling well. Also no i dont have to talk to a conselor.?
To make a long story shore i came from a small, poor, family. My dad left. We always moving to different apartments either because we cant afford or we got kicked out or some toher issues.
I finally found this girl that made me happy (we dated online) and we were dating for awhile. What made me feel so in love is the fact that she was loyal, she always helped me when i was down, and she was beautiful!
She wasnt over the hop, she was average to most but for me she was everything i needed. I know when im walking down the street, she gave me confidence and walk with my chest out and smile. I said hello,good morning to everyone. I felt like a new and better man (teen)
She was the only girl i could talk to (comfortably) on the phone without feeling embarrassed or anything. She made he happy, and she thought i was very sexy. Overall i was happy. It made me do better in school and other things i liked ot do.
Bbut she told me yesterday that "we need to talk" well she broke up with me. Saying we can date because we live far from either. Most will say i should move on,but ive been throagh too many relationships and this was the perfect one for me,i know it was, also i came from a bad past so she made me feel like nobody else could.
I went to sleep crying yesterday, i wake up feleing tired, ive been laying down for 3 hours since i wole up. I havent eat, i have no motivation to eat. People dont understand. They think i was with "just some girl" she was more than that!
1 AnswerSingles & Dating4 years agoCan't make new friends because i dont know how to socialize?
Back when i was in elementary school, it was so easy to make friends. Now its almost impossible for me to make friends. I just stay in the house on my phone now because of it. Im too scared to go out because im not confident and my self esteem is low.
Like when im tlaking to people in person,i can NEVER thing of anything, i try texting and i think about stuff but its nothing interesting to the person, then i HATE talking on the phone. If anything i talk very fast on the phone and i NEVER can figure out anything.
People always say talk about anything, but my child hood isnt interesting at all because it was pretty much bad. Im in high school now and i still have nothing going on in my life. I literally can talk abotu anyhting, i dont even watch tv, i just watch youtube or play clahd of clans or clahs royal.
I only feel comfortable on social media, but once im talking to someone in message chat i get too scared. All i say is "what are you doing"or" how are you doing"i need help!
Maybe like things you talk about with your friends,because this has been like this pretty much all my life. Anyone has tips or tricks tp fix this
2 AnswersFriends4 years agoWhy do a lot of people dislike/hate gay people?
I've noticed most people don't mind women being lesbian, but when it comes to another man being ga, in society, they claim it is a disease/ illness, or how it is a choice, or how it is plain disgusting.
Look I understandeveryone has their own opinion but how can you really KNOW it is a choice either you aren't gay? You can't assume just because one male and female can create a baby, doesn't mean EVERY human being will come out straight.
I mean just LOOK! Our world isn't perfect! We have babies who are born with legs or arm, and some of have problems with gay people? To me it makes no sense, there are so many things society SHOULD hate, but most choose to hate on how another lives their life. You should only be mad if that person is hurting a another person or animal.
7 AnswersLesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender4 years agoWhy do we put people in jail?
Okay I understand we put people in jail or prison for punishment on their bad actions. But I feel like this should be temporary. Like there are people who have raped others, and all we do is throw them in jail, but I feel like we teach and help these people. Nobody is born to do this terrible acts, but if someone does, I feel like jail does NOTHING. It removes you from society (in some cases it's NEEDED) but in most cases it don't teach them anything, they just adapt and can't wait to get out. But if we can teach and explain. That can actually make a positive difference.
People think when we scare people with jail or prison is going to stop people from doing bad things but it doesn't. We need a little jail, teaching and other serious help for these people. And no, those little classes aren't good enough because it's a choice to go or not. SOME PEOPLE NEED IT. I just don't understand why we see someone kill someone, and we just through them in jail for 15 plus years and think that's supposed to help the situation somehow
