For the guys who were in several relationships here.
I guess you can say they start out in three different ways. 1) You are interested in the girl so your pursue her until you end up in a relationship, 2) the girl is interested in you and you give the whole thing a chance or 3) the both of you have a crush on each other and you become a couple, although that doesn't happen too often.
Every relationship I had was the second kind. Am I missing out? Should I actively pursue women who I'm interested in but didn't give me any signals that they are into me? Looking back I've never been rejected before and I remember pursuing one girl back in the day and it worked out, but I haven't tried to get with a girl I am interested in ever since. Maybe I'm just afraid of rejection but I'm not the kind of guy to chase girls.
Am I missing out?

Yes, you're only driving one way on a two way street. You'll never know what's in the other direction by doing this.

no I don't think so
pursing women is the main cause of a.) rape and b.) rejection
you're probably better off stick to scenario 1. and 3.
3 is also quite common. sure, one person asks the other on the date, but mutual attraction is often simultaneous and obvious.

>you're probably better off stick to scenario 1.
Lol why would I? So I waste my time and energy in a relationship where I'm not given as much affection as I need? Granted, I've only been in the first scenario once, but I'm not sure if it develops into a relationship with mutual affection.

wait I fucked that up. did you read my post? I meant to say scenarios 2 and 3.
men who chase women all the time get rejected all the time and sometimes rape
just peacock a bit, go around single women, and wait for one of them to show interest in you. if they shy away once you initiate with them, find someone else.

to add to this
I would say maybe ask women on dates once you're marriage material. when someone is fully mature and looking for a spouse, that's a different game entirely.
by then hopefully you'd be a confident guy with a career so when they say, "haha no sorry I'm busy" you can get back to whatever it was you were doing and let it go

women looking to marry are going to be applying game and being more rational than just some young hos looking to get validation and sexual release
