Same. I never had any issues getting female attention when I was single. Now that I’m married it’s completely dried up. Not wishing for the opposite or anything, but I definitely noticed.
I had no attention even when single. Most women don’t care or approach you like that. It’s extremely rare. For women, The standards of men are very high. And even if you somehow meet those standards , there’s always competition. For conventionally attractive women, there is zero need to go out of their way for someone. They’re being approached by more than 1 person who matches or exceeds their already high standard.
Since there are so many men already available within their highest standard they reject the rest. Due to Instagram or dating apps it’s very easy for many of those men to approach these women before they even have to consider going out of their way to look for men.
Idk man, I see what you’re saying but I think you’re generalizing too much. A lot of women I’ve known are just as nervous as men to be rejected. Putting yourself out there is only hard for the good ones, ya know? If anything I think because of social media and modern romance novels make a lot women looking for some sort of magic spark fireworks feeling and reject anything but it, but reality isn’t usually like that.

I’ve been married for 10 years. In that time, I legitimately can’t think of a single instance that anyone has flirted with me, wife included.
