‘Thinking that because I am plus size that I am desperate for your attention or any attention and desperate to get laid. I’ve been plus size all my life and have never had an issue with getting attention or flirted with.’

‘Not the ‘biggest’ mistake, but if he won’t let me pay for my own coffee or meal on the first date, there will not be a second. I don’t like feeling like I ‘owe’ people things, and I don’t like it when a guy is more interested in Correctly Performing Manliness than he is in listening to a simple ‘no thank you’.’

‘Faking a friendship. So many men treat friendships with women as stepping stones for a sexual/romantic relationship and it’s gross for two reasons: it shows that they value us only in those terms, and it shows a very deep-rooted dishonesty.
‘If you want to pursue something sexual, say it, and if the woman isn’t interested in that and you aren’t interested in a genuine friendship, move the fuck along.’

‘A lot of guys will either only want to talk once a week but want the women to stay committed to the concept of them, or they’ll cuss out a women they’re talking to because she didn’t answer them for 45 minutes when she was busy. Don’t be either of those dudes. In-between is good.’

‘Asking for ‘pictures’…..ugh…especially when it’s the beginning phases of the relationship. I tend to mentally check out after that.’

‘Telling stories that highlight how immature they are. For example, a man told me that his ex-wife used to want him to exercise so he would just wave his arm with an Apple Watch on around while he was watching TV.’

‘Not recognising clear ‘not interested’ cues. Interested women may not initiate, but they will reciprocate. If we like you, we might not (probably won’t) reach out to you, but if you reach out to us, we won’t ignore you or keep blowing you off. If we do that, it means we’re not interested.’

‘Making weird jokes too soon. Could a serial killer joke be funny after we’ve been dating and watched the documentary together? Sure. Is it funny on the first date when you’re driving me somewhere in the dark on our first date? FUCK no.’
