At 41, a good conversationalist is just as important as a nice ass.
Many options but very few challenge my mind.

Plenty of reasons. Biology(sex), entertainment(even just to kill some time), or they are not 100% locked on to the person they have "eyes" for. Even low self-esteem causing them to shot for less or someone different. Or a mix of all thee above. Take your pick lol

This is the exact reason I will likely end up with a ton of money and alone. Which is fine. I have social media to give me a false sense of ego and companionship. My question is what do they bring to the table? Since most women think if they cook, clean, and don't work they are looked at as a lesser being. I obviously don't need them for that. I can do all those things myself. I also don't need their money. I don't need sex either, and actually rather pleasure myself in most cases. Women with a deep sex drive that need physical sex are more work and long-term problems then its worth imo. So I would need a woman who is willing to help me tend a house, not look at that as being a weaker person, not need a ton of sex, and not get jealous I rather pleasure myself most of the time. Which I have to do daily to cope with my own sexual urges. Now if she wanted to do all the sexual work when I'm not feeling it that is another story, but she would be putting in more work then me and I don't expect or that from anyone. I can do it myself just fine.

You obviously enjoyed the experience. Don't be so hard on yourself for that.
The fact that nothing came of it well...happens. You were seeing each other or actually dating and that is what happens when it doesn't work out. It is part of the process. Once again it wasn't him particularly you were attached to rather the attention and the relationship experience itself, yes?
Besides would you rather him stick around if he isn't serious about you? You owe him thanks for not taking up more of your time.
As you get older and more experience with people in general, you will be able to better zero in on those prospects worth investing in long term. Learn from this experience and enjoy any good memories you made. Don't be do hard on yourselfđclick to expand

Looks are a subjective field. Men will always want someone physically attractive to them. As literally everyone does regardless of gender. And that isnât necessarily shallow. You want to view your partner in that way, correct?
There is little you can do to control attraction. It is or it is isnât.

I am talking about a guy who is interested in you and is pursuing you and then drops you when someone new and good looking comes along. So he has attraction with both and jumps to the new and more popular one.
It might suck but does he owe you anything if you arenât in a relationship?
If anything it shows you heâs a person that isnât right for you.click to expand

Posted by MadTwins80Also I wouldn't assume you know what a man is thinking with regards to other women. Just because you see him being playful or even affectionate with another woman don't assume he likes her or sees her in that way. Sometimes the women we like the most are the ones we pay the least attention to. So when you see a guy "flirting" with another woman don't necessarily assume it's because he is trying to hook up with her. Don't be jealous or angry and you'll probably have better experiences imo , I know it's easier said than done.

It's important im both genre's, but what i notice loads of women say look's don't matter.
People who say looks don't matter that much are either unavare or simply lie. What's the most common thing women make fun of either on man or a woman 2 insult a person or somth like that? It's looks ... Because they know women really care about these things, they always try to look good and hiting that spot always hurts women, so women who say looks don't matter are either lying or lack self reflection. They do care about looks , but it's not only that, and same can be said with men. There will always be more hot guy or more hot girl, but if your girlfriend or boyfriend or whatever is already hot , you already invested in them, you have bond, i don't think smart people would jump on that person just because they have better looks, unless they are unhappy in relationship already.
Also looks why older women get mad when guys their age go for younger girls, they get mad, because younger girl's have looks, and they have to think of a reason why she's better than that yougling and starts saying i'm more mature, smart etc. Well that might be the case, the men aren't looking for more mature, or smarter women, they are looking for feminine beutiful women who can give kids. Younger women have better chance of giving birth, they are more feminine and supportive of a man and appreciative because unlike most mature women, they don't have the attitude we are equal and i'm better than this or than that, i'm smarter i'm better etc. She brings feminine energy while a man brings masculine energy. These days women want to be so equal they don't realise they become more masculine and that's not what men want, not in a long term anyways. So called equality gives freedom for women, easy sex for men and less chance of a stable and long term manogamous relationship or marriage. Look at the statistics, says it all.

To me it depends.
Iâve dated good looking guys and I also dated average guys but I can only connect with someone who enjoys a great conversation.
Hot guys are great for fooling around with but itâs not fulfilling....
I need someone I can mentally connect with.....
My Venus is in Aquarius so I guess that explains my perspective when it comes to âloveâ.

My main question is why would a man lead a woman on when he is already interested in someone else, and then when he gets a positive response he goes back to the woman he was initially interested in.click to expand

At 41, a good conversationalist is just as important as a nice ass.
Many options but very few challenge my mind.
and would you use someone to boost your ego? I mean why do men pursue someone when they have their eye on someone else?
Plenty of reasons. Biology(sex), entertainment(even just to kill some time), or they are not 100% locked on to the person they have "eyes" for. Even low self-esteem causing them to shot for less or someone different. Or a mix of all thee above. Take your pick lol
Regardless you are going to get different answers based on the mindset and maturity level of the responder. Your question is just too vague.
So as an example, sometimes a guy will show interest, pursue a bit, and then you see him doing the same or more to someone else. And you feel like a fool that you thought he may be interested in you
Nope. Still a vague hypothetical with many many reasons. You know what I've played every scenario of what you said and in the end it doesn't matter.
Because the most important question is, were you into to him and why?
That's a good question. Yes, I would say I was into him because I thought he was into me. That's what makes me most mad. Like I am fine by myself, so why does a guy come show interest and then when you show interest back go to someone else? Just let me be if you are not serious.
Should be happy he moved on if it was just a fleeting fancy and you were not truly interested in him. You have lost nothing. Doesn't sound like either of you were serious about this.
Did this situation awaken some kind of desire for companionship you were setting aside?
Another of saying that is, are you mad at yourself for giving a shit about this, letting it effect you?
Yes, I am mad at myself for showing interest
You obviously enjoyed the experience. Don't be so hard on yourself for that.
The fact that nothing came of it well...happens. You were seeing each other or actually dating and that is what happens when it doesn't work out. It is part of the process. Once again it wasn't him particularly you were attached to rather the attention and the relationship experience itself, yes?
Besides would you rather him stick around if he isn't serious about you? You owe him thanks for not taking up more of your time.
As you get older and more experience with people in general, you will be able to better zero in on those prospects worth investing in long term. Learn from this experience and enjoy any good memories you made. Don't be do hard on yourselfđ
I just didn't like the way in which he tried to put a stop, by suddenly ignoring, avoiding. And the worst, pursuing someone where we are all acquainted. That is the worst, I think it was always her, I was supposed to be in the background for his ego boost. That was brutal to watch. Hurt my ego.
If you were actually dating/seeing each other (not just talking) and he just ghosted you, that says more about him then you. Total teen/early20s immature move. I totally get the whole hit to the ego thing though.
What did you actually lose here(actual downsides) vs. gained or learned from this experience?
I fear of this experience repeating with someone else. What makes a guy stay and not lose interest?click to expand

It's important im both genre's, but what i notice loads of women say look's don't matter.
People who say looks don't matter that much are either unavare or simply lie. What's the most common thing women make fun of either on man or a woman 2 insult a person or somth like that? It's looks ... Because they know women really care about these things, they always try to look good and hiting that spot always hurts women, so women who say looks don't matter are either lying or lack self reflection. They do care about looks , but it's not only that, and same can be said with men. There will always be more hot guy or more hot girl, but if your girlfriend or boyfriend or whatever is already hot , you already invested in them, you have bond, i don't think smart people would jump on that person just because they have better looks, unless they are unhappy in relationship already.
Also looks why older women get mad when guys their age go for younger girls, they get mad, because younger girl's have looks, and they have to think of a reason why she's better than that yougling and starts saying i'm more mature, smart etc. Well that might be the case, the men aren't looking for more mature, or smarter women, they are looking for feminine beutiful women who can give kids. Younger women have better chance of giving birth, they are more feminine and supportive of a man and appreciative because unlike most mature women, they don't have the attitude we are equal and i'm better than this or than that, i'm smarter i'm better etc. She brings feminine energy while a man brings masculine energy. These days women want to be so equal they don't realise they become more masculine and that's not what men want, not in a long term anyways. So called equality gives freedom for women, easy sex for men and less chance of a stable and long term manogamous relationship or marriage. Look at the statistics, says it all.
