It took me a while in dating to realize that men have just as many insecurities as women.
I remember I met a group of people at a get-together once last summer. We got along so well that we all exchanged numbers and created a group chat.
Tell me why one of the guys in the group chat started talking about ladies asking him out for lobster dinner. Out of nowhere.
A little backstory: He has an athletic build, nice-looking guy, drives a BMW, mid 30s
A few weeks later he texts me pretending to check up on me. Then he tells me I should ask him over to my house to watch Netflix.
1) I never even had the idea that he looked at me like that because I spoke to him maybe 3x in person
2) He didn't even have the courage to tell me he wanted us to sleep together. He didn't even invite me to his place. He told me that I should invite him to my place. But yet ladies are asking him out to lobster dinners...okay...
It took me getting a bit in age to realize that men had insecurities too
Background on me: I am very introverted and quiet. Admittedly corny. Very dorky but I like to put effort into my appearance so maybe that is my saving grace
