I used to believe this as well especially when I would witness my beautiful friends getting approached by men when we would go out together.
As I started learning more about dating dynamics, I learned that there were certain things I could do to increase my chances of getting asked out by attractive men.
Now before we get started, one point I want to make is that I KNOW these results are based on what I am doing because as soon as I stop doing them (once I am in a relationship) men STOP approaching me. It’s as easy as turning it on or off.
Let me give you some examples of how I “turn it on.”
One day I went salsa dancing. I started to dance with a man there and he then asked me if I would like to go surfing sometime. Why did he ask me that? Because I led the conversation in a way to bring up fun things I like to do in my free time and things I would...

Maybe you have a misunderstanding or an argument. Rejection is a natural part of life and we need to get friendly with it if we want to succeed in the long term.
If you don’t get friendly with rejection you will likely give up on things easily, take things personally, and have a much more painful dating experience.
