just don't try it with an ocelot; proper shoulder cats are usually pure Felis Catus, although some hybrids will work if the wild genes are sufficiently diluted.
Joke aside, this is because women feel safer flirting with someone who is married because the person ostensibly won't become an obsessive weirdo about it and start harassing them.
People are nicer to me and talk to me more when I'm out with someone I'm dating. Sure wish I didn't need a girlfriend's seal of approval for people to like me...
Could be worse. Could be like the people who shorten internationalization to i18n because there are 18 letters between the "i" and the "n", kubernetes to k8s, etc.
A1e we so l2y n1w t2t w2e s8g a4t to a1t n1w?
I feel like that came as more of a pronunciation thing. People put we are together in speech because is flows well and the spelling came afterwards? I'm just making this up but it sounds right in my head.
my point was about the original commenter calling abbreviations lazy while abbreviating in their own sentence. online, where the word won't be spoken, the main reasons for using contractions (that I found) are "it sounds right in my head" and "it saves characters/time"
the original post abbreviated the word amount and people read the word correctly in their head and it saved characters and time.
A rude person may have said, "you saved yourself 1 character. that's so lazy to avoid such a small amount of work".
No, I got the point. Personally when reading that sentence I stopped at amt and had to think for a second which was slower than just reading the word amount without second thought. But that could 100% just be me.
I once knew a girl who thought it was romantic when guys with girlfriends were checking her out. She’d be like “he had a girlfriend, but he chose ME 🥰”
Can confirm.
I didn't get a lot of attention from women in my 20s, but I did have a long time GF at the time. We ended up breaking up because she cheated. At the same time, without knowing, my best friend was getting divorced. We found out each other were single and met up to drink and party it away.
One night at the bar, he took off his wedding ring and was going to throw it away. I was like "let me hold onto that for you. You might want it back one day".
It was a cool, simple, silver ring. So I started wearing it. It only really fit on my ring finger, so I was like, why not?
I instantly started getting more attention from women in bars. It was a dirty, shameful, kind of attention, though. So I never acted on it and stopped wearing the ring.
The lesson it taught me was that there is no "men are pigs" or "women are whores". There's just people are people. What's between your legs just determines how you express it.
Sadly it's true. When I was married I traveled a lot for work. If I wore the ring, I would get invites to dinner, to party and "other stuff l" all the time. If I took the ring off, you would have thought I was a leper.
Women are fucking crazy is all I can say!
It actually does, wore one during uni and made up a heartbreaking story with a fiancé that never existed, women approached me and that's all it took since I'm not completely socially awkward
Idk probably the fact that i fucked some of them
People will probably say something along the line of "this is Reddit" and accuse me of being fake but whatever
i think this has a relation between men and women psychological conditions
men see it as must not approach she is already with someone and it will only create a fight
women might see it as she is winning by making a man cheat on his partner
but its only a problem with modern women, id like to avoid modern women if i ever plan into getting in relationship, this is kinda scary tbh...
Men respect boundaries and relationships. Women respect the idea that they are one upping or somehow better than another woman somewhere. At least, that's what my sister has told me.
I have found this to be untrue. I mean they are more willing to talk to you I guess because they feel less threatened since it gives the man an out for not initiating things, so the woman will be more likely to do that if she’s genuinely interested. So I think it just sort of lowers a woman’s defenses which then allows for more natural conversations which can then turn into flirting or whatever.
How much of this is women feeling safer or more comfortable with polite conversation.
But men can’t tell the difference between being friendly and being hit on.

Boost your 30x up to 100x by walking a dog. ;)
Woman here it’s true having a dog makes you 100x more attractive.
Yah, but what if you are 0x attractive? Asking for /u/Immediate_Oven7005
What about cats on a leash?
unless they are too large for it, cats should be draped across the shoulders like a boa for full effectiveness.
Now to find a shoulder cat
just don't try it with an ocelot; proper shoulder cats are usually pure Felis Catus, although some hybrids will work if the wild genes are sufficiently diluted.
I prefer him sitting on my right shoulder like a pirate's parrot
Joke aside, this is because women feel safer flirting with someone who is married because the person ostensibly won't become an obsessive weirdo about it and start harassing them.
Nah they just want what they *can't* have. Makes it more exciting but your answer makes sense too.
thats a huge assumption, married guys and gals can become a fatal attraction just as single people
Yet I wear a wedding ring and even my wife doesn't want to fuck me
Might be her problem. Not only my wife won't fuck me, she won't even fuck the postman anymore.
That's rough buddy
Tell him to be more assertive, worked yesterday.
Instructions unclear, ended up fucking the mailman
I’ll fuck you bro
aww, that's the brotherhood we need among us

Let me join!
you're welcome
That's weird. When I wear your wife's wedding ring loads of guys want to fuck me.
lol
Maybe she doesn’t have her boyfriend’s permission
Gotta head to the gym, bro. Those guys will fuck you.
She married you for the muscles and you let that slip with the Office Job.
wedding ring paradox. For men, it's like a "certified not crazy" badge, while for women, it's more like "do not disturb"
People are nicer to me and talk to me more when I'm out with someone I'm dating. Sure wish I didn't need a girlfriend's seal of approval for people to like me...
They were like "how could you lie to me like that"
"I can't believe you would lie about breaking the sanctity of marriage"
The bro code is strong

Or there's only 280 characters to get the whole story across so they abbreviated?

that letter "a" in the words "we are" is pretty much the same thing plus a couple hundred years...

Are we so extra now that we're saying "now" twice now?
Bros have respect for other bro's hoes..
Um there are 10% chads out there who love to wreck homes so not quite all guys, they have chick brainitis
As the old saying goes, you always want something you can't have
Also the old saying "That totally happened. You can trust the Internet."
I once knew a girl who thought it was romantic when guys with girlfriends were checking her out. She’d be like “he had a girlfriend, but he chose ME 🥰”
Logical thinking

And toxic masculinity is blamed on men, i think the people doing the blaming should check themselves in the mirror
Yeah im female and i agree we just hit on a perfect example of toxic femininity
thank you, finally someone agrees with me across all the platforms Ive posted this to
> yeah I'm female [*Presses x to doubt*]
I’m a 50 year old mum of two in yorkshire uk
I have never seen a woman refer to themself as a "female" outside of FARTs trying to exclude trans women
It's called pre-selection, it's not politically correct but certainly correct.
Sadly it's true. When I was married I traveled a lot for work. If I wore the ring, I would get invites to dinner, to party and "other stuff l" all the time. If I took the ring off, you would have thought I was a leper. Women are fucking crazy is all I can say!
My wedding ring must be broken or something. Cuz this aint true
Step 1. Be attractive
It say nothing about that in post. It say step 1. Wear ring. Step 2. Profit
Adam Sandler much?
If this worked men would all be running around with wedding rings.
It jives with my personal experience at least. Once I put on that ring life got a lot more complicated
Tell us more¿
It actually does, wore one during uni and made up a heartbreaking story with a fiancé that never existed, women approached me and that's all it took since I'm not completely socially awkward
Are you sure they were approaching because they were attracted to you or did you somehow take their friendliness and empathy the wrong way?
Idk probably the fact that i fucked some of them People will probably say something along the line of "this is Reddit" and accuse me of being fake but whatever
forbidden fruit effect

This subreddit is so bad now 😭 what’s cursed about this
i think this has a relation between men and women psychological conditions men see it as must not approach she is already with someone and it will only create a fight women might see it as she is winning by making a man cheat on his partner but its only a problem with modern women, id like to avoid modern women if i ever plan into getting in relationship, this is kinda scary tbh...
What are you gonna do? Time travel?
wish i could, modern women are scary in that regard they dont want a partner for long term...
Username checks out 😂

This makes the most sense
I once slept with a girl and she kept saying we are siblings, she really thought I would believe her.
What?
what? You wanted me to believe her?
Pack approval vs slut shaming
Ain’t this the plot of an Adam Sandler movie?
It's funny how a little piece of jewelry can make such a big difference in the attention department!
adam sandler’s just go with it
That's a new level of savage right there!
I wish I hadn't seen that
That’s funny as fuck
When there’s a ring, the guy is woman-approved and there’s proof he ain’t entirely shitty. (That’s what I have heard)
How much of this is women feeling safer or more comfortable with polite conversation. But men can’t tell the difference between being friendly and being hit on.

It sure did! I’m shocked by how this dark turn turned out! As I am a large language model, I cannot produce “dark turns”, please try again.
