Woah, emotional intelligence and intelligence quotient are both very important. To have a low EQ is like having a low IQ. You will not be to deal will everyday life situations or even have important roles in jobs or politics. And tbh, I don't even know why I am having to justify this to you. Clearly you lack in the intelligence to under the aspect of what EQ is.


No it's not, the article clearly stated EQ and IQ are independant lol. High EQ doesn't build the computer you're using, the internet you're connected to or this very forum software you're using.

Actual reasons:

1) Not social enough

2) Think that women have super high expectations so they basically rule themselves out

3) Being too sensitive and worrying about rejection


Lol these are all true of me.
Still managed one girlfriend. Well, sort of two if you count when I was ten lmao.

None of my boyfriend's friends have a girlfriend and they are feeling quite bad about it. Looking at them I'd say:
1. Being scared of girls (not approaching them, not making eye contact even when the girl initiated)
2. Thinking girls are their properties and should sleep with them cause things (some literally made me feel as if they expected me to offer myself to them)
3. Bad personality (doing drugs, not having any hobbies etc)


1. Girls NEVER initiate
2. No comments
3. Good personality DOES NOT guarantee anything at all

Personally I would prefer that to living miserable life with lots of credits, mortgage, brainwashing and cheating wife and couple of screaming children...

pretty sure a wife that married you without ever having feelings toward you would lead to more misery and higher instances of cheating then one who loved you at some point :K:

And arranged marriages still result in kids and mortgages :lol:

Marie Curie
Her daughter
Rosalind Franklin
Grace Hopper
Dian Fossey

Curie's daughter-no info who contributed more, she or her husband
Curie-agree
Franklin-agree
Rest-studies of gorillas (ehhmm so what?) and contribution to DNA and X-ray but Nobel prize went to completely other people.

Not convincing. Keep googling.

No feelings is a lot better-clean, cook and do whatever you like.

Arranged-means no initiative. How passive people can have children or mortgages?

I'm less into small talk are more into talking about subjects of interest. Usually will start with a common connection and go from there :smile:

What exactly am I supposed to be convincing you of? If you want to see the achievements of women in science, google yourself. There are plenty.

In what kind of scenario ?
For the average male the main thing that prevents them from getting a girl is their own fear of rejection and generally not putting themselves out there or taking advantage of opportunities.

I met up with a girl earlier today for coffee and the very first thing I said was "Hey, how's it going?" and that's always been what I say or some variation of. I get that the kids these days have a whole different set of 'rules' for online etiquette, but it baffles me that 'Hey, how are you' could be considered dry.

Who built house you are living in? Who built, invented and constantly improves car that you drive? Who planned cities, created wheel, electricity, airplanes, firefights, top doctors etc.? Even kitchen is dominated by men, any top cleaning service is provided by men. It is reality. If woman has a choice between being at home and working in 99% cases she would prefer staying at home, do washing and cleaning using gadgets that were created by men :smile:

I suppose it refers to online more than anything, then. As in , don't expect anything more than 'fine thank you ' if it's the first time we've ever spoken!
