Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

It's really disillusioning to see that people whose feedback you value are completely asinine.
Not sure if you're talking about me, but this place has always been about self-improvement and learning to me. I've been a bit goofy since the ending of my marriage and really do want to fix the issues that it has left me with. It's going to take time, patience, and experience.

The people who's feedback you truly value are human. They're allowed to make their own mistakes and fall on their face once in a while. Everyone's allowed to do that. If they really are worth their feedback, you will let them continue to learn their own lessons in life so that they may pass on their insight to you.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I'm not fishing for an apology or an explanation. Nor am I trying to draw this thing out. It was just a gut reaction to what I read in your OP.
