    Did the poster write this themselves so they could just have a freak out because there was nothing else to freak out about today?

        I mean, women don’t go round putting up signs like that do they? If they did it’d say something like ‘stop putting up psycho-signs, guys’ and all the MRAs would scream about misandry.

          1. The Old Boy

            That reminds me of an old Jeffrey Bernard column in the Spectator in the 80s.

            …I feel a sort of unbelieving and bewildered horror such as I experience when I’m drinking coffee in Maison Valerie and find myself surrounded by women dressed from jumble sales and reading the Guardian.

      I was trying to picture what part of Irish society you might find one of these chap. Nail on the head mate.

    “Mum, how did you meet Dad?”

    “Wellll, it’s kind of a funny story…”

    silly ladies ignoring this clearly upstanding man, a man who seems to get looked over because no one can see what a bone crushing good guy he is

      It’s clearly a chronic case of steaming fury at nice guys finishing last.
      And I don’t mean happy endings.

      Its straight out of ‘The Mask’, Jim Carrey’s character says lines very close to this. So I guess its all going to come to a head in a Night Club with lots of action

    One day, some woman will say “He’s the one” as she points him out in a line up in the Bridewell.

  5. Joe Small

    He’s well down the road to joining those Incel lads.

    Pity he hasn’t a female friend to take him aside and give him some advice. If he had he’d probably hit on her too.

    I find the optimal approach is to try to be as neutral as possible by alternating good guy and bad boy acts. So maybe – make a reservation at a fancy restaurant she mentioned, but then escape through the bathroom window and leave her with the bill. Or pick her a bunch of flowers in the park on your way home, and then set her alarm clock half an hour earlier than normal, just long enough that there’s no point in going back to sleep. As long as it’s always in balance.

    pretty girls like monkeys with a whiff of danger…not gentle need types. old as the hills

      He’s not a “gentle need” type. He’s the type that equates sex as the correct repayment for being nice to a woman. Far more dangerous and insidious than the danger monkeys.

    interesting reactions here. there must be some truth to old adage ‘treat em mean, keep em keen’ then.
    knew it. i’m off to berate the missis into making the dinner in her undies.

      It evens out, I think good things happen to good people overall.

      1. scottser

        if that’s the case,she’ll probably do fishfingers in her purple granny-skankers.

    I’d like to be escorted, admired, coddled and kept by a real nice lady who has racehorses, a seaside holiday bungalow and shares in a brewery.
