Now, maybe it's age differenece because dude is close to 50. But he has a terrible time getting with women. Any woman that's nice to him, he does the same old thing. Gets a basket full of items (lotions, fruit, etc.) and tells them he wants to get to know them. The thing is though, IT NEVER WORKS. And when I say, never, I mean that. Then he goes on this suicide talk and I have to talk him out of it.

This time though, he actually did it with a woman whom may actually liked him. She would talk to him and they had a good convo. I told him to get her number and he listened. I'm thinking, "this might work". But she didn't call him back after their first convo. She told him she would. WHen he called her back, she told him she didn't lock his number in the phone. Another good convo and she told him she'll call him back at the end. He called her again, and she didn't answer.

Sunday, of course, was Easter. And on cue, this niguh messed it up with her. Niguh went to CVS and made her an Easter basket. Got her some books, lotion and slippers. Gave her the basket and told her he liked her. And would like to take her out (even though he doesn't have a car). She hit him with "I don't date people I work with but we can still be friends). He was like cool. He told me and all I gave no response. I just listened but thinking "Here we go again".

Yesterday, he hit her up and left a message on her voice mail "Look, I know you don't wanna date. Which is cool. But how about we get some coffee, or have some lunch? Not on some romantic stuff. I just want to get to know you. Call me back". Which of course, she didn't. And once again, he got depressed and talked about life being better if he wasn't here. I never knew people did this kinda stuff except in the movies? M Making baskets and asking women on a date? Have yall heard of this before?

Wait now. I think that is very nice. He sounds like a nice guy, very thoughtful and considerate.

But I'm old school...

He can have rational, intelligent conversations?

The only turn off would be that he doesn't have a car-but hey, all other things considered, I could work around that, if he's a good man.

How old are these women he's trying to talk to?

The non-romantic breakfast doesn't seem like a bad idea. I love breakfast food and if a bytch wants to watch me demolish a IHOP breakfast sampler that's all win right there

No I am really serious. I tell you I am OLD SCHOOL. There are old people on The Coli you know, I know this is hard to believe. Dude is around my age. We old people really admire and appreciate these kinds of things. Y'all young people just say it's corny and lame.

He is going after the wrong women. He needs to be a better judge of character.

Only go after women who are feeling you. If they play you cold, just breeze.

You got women out there who love dudes who beat them till they lose hearing in one ear. So, he should feasting right now.

But I'm guessing dude doesn't have his shyt together...


Hard to get a woman as an older guy like that. Tell him to stop buying/making baskets too, that shyt is just sad. Get to know the chick by asking her out not buying shyt she probably doesn't want then asking her out. IDK

i'm in a fraternal group of 100+ guys
there are half a dozen men like that, all 40+ years old
there's nothing you can tell them

they want ladies who are all wrong
tend to read basic situations incorrectly
have a huge blindspot when it comes to women
waste time asking for advice, then do the polar opposite
blow off legit/realistic introductions for stupid reasons-
ex: "i'm baptist, she's methodist" just silly shyt
i don't understand it
there's really no helping them:francis:
