If you are overlooked by women is it because you are not attractive enough

Now I am older I look back on most of my youth and missed out on young love also I didn’t get laid enough I went to most sixth form parties but got subtly ignored now I am older I feel like I missed out but I am not ugly maybe I am not good looking enough I am slim average height but women never really seem interested is this usually just because you are not attractive enough?

I mean when as a women when i go out to parties and stuff i dont go out wanting sex and whilst some do a lot dont so i 'subtly ignore' guys trying to sleep with me because its just not what i want and i know most of my female friends are the same. Sure soemtimes its attractiveness levels but often its jsut because the women there dont want sex or a relationship at the moment. For me its usually not individual people

I don’t really try to sleep with girls and never really approach it talk to them so maybe that is part of the problem

If you don’t talk to women, how do you expect to hit if off with them?

Dating is a bit of a competitive business. The most attractive people in looks and personality will have plenty of options. The rest of us have to work hard to get success. But there is undoubtedly someone, in fact multiple people, for everyone

Nowadays there is a ratio thing going on. So loads of guys are overlooked by women. Loads. There must be a minority of guys having kids by different women also.

Not only is this garbage, it is also completely self-defeating because men who think like this merely create self-fulfilling prophecies for themselves.

Actually the stats on dating apps prove women have way different standards and are inundated with matches while men struggle.

There are two problems with this.

Firstly, a match is not a date and is certainly not a relationship. It has been a while but when I use to try on dating apps, I get a few matches, about half of which turn into conversations but I could still generally land myself someone to go for a drink with on Friday night. That is all you need, you don't need hundreds of matches.

Secondly, you are not a prisoner of dating apps. You can still venture outside and meet women in the real world. This is where your personality and charm can shine through and is why most relationships still start with people meeting offline.
