So often I’ll see couples on dates
And the men are perpetually “waiting” for the women to initiate everything
Waiting for her to talk
Waiting to reply
Waiting for her to order
Waiting for her to Lead
You can see the woman lose her romantic interest over the evening
“Is he going to take the initiative on anything”
The conversations are the same, the man gauging her reaction
This continuous desire for approval
They all end the same of course
“Nice having dinner with you, thanks.”
There isn’t going to be a 2nd date
So many of modern men are these emasculated creatures to be led around
No assertion, no confidence, they are not their mental origin point at all
