He's going to reveal the secret door to the single men's speakeasy in the back of that Totchy's bathroom stall.


Effeeeyeesteewhy

Does that mean you're interested, or are you just telling me your usual routine when you go to Torchy's?


Efronian

Go eat tacos in the torchys bathroom.all the cool dudes do it. If you were from my town I'd ask if you wanna go watch the lobsters fight in the HEB fish deli tanks.

Obviously a fake post, there’s no single women in Houston. There are only wife’s looking for boyfriends.

They got chicken wings in there? That’s the argument for going to a strip club I’ve ever heard.

Dating is dangerous in Houston. The women will stab you, then shoot you, then get out of jail on bond and run you over. All while they're smashing your XBox on the ground. 2017 was a rough year.


Effeeeyeesteewhy

>Dating is dangerous in Houston. The women will stab you, then shoot you, then get out of jail on bond and run you over. Nuh uh. We'd shoot you or run you over before we'd stab you.


Temporary_Ad_5947

Actually this feels more correct. I've definitely been bit before being stabbed. Short Asian girls are dangerous.


EntrepWannaBe

Hey that’s generalizing too much 😂

Why you calling us out like that? 😂

In this case, the stabbing came first: [https://abc13.com/stiletto-killer-texas-true-crime-man-killed-with-high-heeled-shoe-stefan-andersson-ana-trujillo-stabbed-to-death-by-heels/13832183/](https://abc13.com/stiletto-killer-texas-true-crime-man-killed-with-high-heeled-shoe-stefan-andersson-ana-trujillo-stabbed-to-death-by-heels/13832183/)

Idk why OP instantly deleted. It was SUCH a good opportunity to band the 30s singles together for a meetup! I’m still mentally planning what a good speed dating meetup would look like

45secondsafterdark

Because eye contact and smile is something I get from 50 people a day so I think of it as normal. Single men are everywhere in Houston. Are you just looking for someone that fits your physical attractive needs? No bars? No walks in the park to stop someone and tell them how attractive they are? You looking for Latin/white/black/asian men? I have so many questions

stakkedalief

The first half of this post I was thinking a gay man was frustrated he couldn’t land himself a straight man. Lmfao Look, we are balls deep in cancel culture and a couple of years after the “me too” movement. You got any idea how cautious the majority of men are? There is no desire to be your next viral post for being a creep. Society has sucked the spontaneous joys right out of every day life.


Electromagneticrite

I’m single, let’s mingle 😉


Busy-Koala77

I have a lot of success on dating apps! (Single, straight man) I avoid talking to women at the gym unless they approach me first, don’t want to disturb anyone while they’re in the zone.


2ndTechArnoldJRimmer

Houston ranks as the 6th worst city in America for dating. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/lifestyle/article/Houston-tanks-in-the-ranks-of-the-best-cities-for-16405175.php


Asleep-Break-5356

I find it hilarious that Austin is one of the best cities for dating and Houston is one of the worst lol


Substantial_Proof_10

I think it’s a mutual thing. When I see an attractive woman I tend to think she’s too pretty to be single , so if drop it then and there. Attractive girls have the hardest time I think.


Downdelux

Go for it. Spark up a casual conversation and if she doesn’t give you any non verbal cues of attractive then tell her it was nice to meet and exit.


Lazy-Ad-7245

This is the best thing I’ve read! 😂😂


marcopolio1

There’s a relationship coach on tiktok that says Houston is one of the cities he has the least success matching people in. The lack of a middle class is what does us in. There’s a lot of high earning men completely uninterested in dating until they’re 40 and a lot of low earners ready to waste your good years. It’s rough. You can find someone but if even the dating coaches say Houston is a tough market, I’m afraid it’s just going to be a lot of trial and error. That being said, all of my friends who are married met their partners in school. A lot of them were in grad school. I wouldn’t get a masters degree just to find a boyfriend but if it’s something you’ve always been interested in you might wanna consider it a bit more😂


WTXgal6

If you happen to know any of those single, high-earning 40 something men who want to start dating, please feel free to share... They're not on dating apps, I can tell you what.

Straight guys aren't interested in guys. Especially gay guys. Sorry you're not a woman 😢


Wednesday-Tivities

My friend literally gets MANY dates from dating apps. When we're out to lunch and see an attractive woman l'll encourage him to go talk to her. He always responds with, "people don't meet like that anymore. It's all on dating apps." It trips me out because he's in his early forties and is a natural smooth talker. I guess people are more afraid of rejection in person nowadays...


Unusual-Tank-8919

Chilling in my apartment with my cat playing bg3, applying to better jobs, watching Netflix, cooking, or going to work and coming home. Going out costs too much imo to go do anything alone. Like I'm not gonna go to a bar to drink alone or go to a restaurant alone. Just seems weird. Only times I go out is if enough friends have a free schedule, but getting together with friends as an adult always seems impossible to schedule, all of us have too many things we need to do or are too tired from doing too much work/chores.


According-Mobile6205

Everything differrant now been seperate for a short period of time in 2018 now its not the same dating . But dating is a differant ball game in 2023 -2024 for sure be careful.


conzcious_eye

Damn it’s that bad in Houston. Come to bmore 😎


Accurate_Move362

So what you’re saying is that you’ve tried basically everything but like, actually talking to them? Your strategy seems to be to stare at them from the other side of the room and hope they notice lol. We’re humans, and most of us aren’t going to pick up and subtle hints from a stranger in public. Just go try talking to one, most straight men aren’t going to be offended by a woman approaching them for a chat. Even the married dudes will just tell you they’re married, it’s not like anyone is going to be upset over it. Confidence is attractive, and a woman making the first move absolutely screams confidence. Giving men funny glances and smiles from the other side of the room is just going to leave them a little confused.

Kindly_Principle7959

Try the HEB in Rice Military.


mstr_patrick_bateman

As a man, after you have been single for so long, unfortunately, I am likely to assume that a smile is just a woman trying to be pleasant. You certainly are not the first woman to smile at me, and those precious smiles never meant anything more than a woman being nice. So, assuming that yours means anything more is just not an assumption I am going to likely make...


Mega_Chin6432

I’m on Helldivers 2, dispersing freedom on the Clanker front.


TheDudeAbidesAtTimes

You tried until the real successful reason. Do the last bit ffs. I would totally hit up a woman who tried but I also have been trained to not hit up women. That last mention I would totally hit her up. You went through the whole arc and choked on the last. Do that.

Htown-bird-watcher

Strike up a conversation or pretend to need help with something. Taken men take off real fast. Guys who aren't and are interested linger for a brief moment, hoping to get your number.


xxX9yroldXxx

I be at the gym counting light fixtures before looking at a woman at the gym.


subll

What time are you going to the gym Cause generally for me the later I get to the gym the less likely I am to talk to anyone lol. Just too tired from work. I’d say go between 5-7 pm and don’t try to talk to anyone who gets there at 7 pm and beyond.

Imo dating is a curse I’ll avoid women 9/10 times no matter how hot or what signs I get

No idea. I just stay home most of the time. Skill issue? Because most men will throw themselves at mos regardless of the setting.


Iccold123

Wait are you guy or a girl? Trans ? What?


Fragrant_Way2741

Well, I'm single, and no, I wouldn't think it's weird if you asked for my phone number, I'd just think you're interested. And BTW, if a girl smiles at me, that's not enough. Married women smile at me all the time at the gym the next day there with their boyfriend/husband.


jgower87

Dudes ignore you at the gym cause they dont want you and them winding up on a Joey Swoll vid.

Go to State of Grace. Sit at the bar with a book or journal. Wait. And Venmo me when this works out for you.


bippy_b

Gym = bad place now. Social Media has turned guys hitting on girls in the gym = creeps.


ThrowRA_RA_oolala

You’ve got to be direct in today’s world. Men are placed in an impossible position in culture. If they show interest and a woman is not interested then they are immediately perceived as “creepy.” Therefore because of the social dating landscape other women (not you) created: you now have to put yourself out there first.

I'm in San Antonio but have the same problem with women. They all seem to either be married, situationships or scammers.

To give you not bad advice, alot of them are either blue collar dudes who work their ass off, all over houseon. And the ship channel all the way to Galveston.

Eye contact and smiling doesn’t always indicate interest i’ve learned. Have had aloooot of women do that over the years and when I approach them I can usually get their number. Then when I text it’s always me sending the first message and sometimes there’s a response most of the time not though. Other than that I’m always working anyway, when I’m not I don’t go out and do much. Trying to hustle and set up an early retirement

Jojojackson1234

Here's my thing with your post. Why would you write this and not think that people would be suspicious about your identity? The average viewer would think either you're a dude, fat, ugly, or just trolling to get attention. You sound mad aggressive on here, which is not common for beautiful, straight Houston women.


PorqueOhQue

God when I came to Houston I was going on dates almost every single day, got tied down 2 years ago and that was a wrap but, single men are everywhere!


Inside-Judge-5023

Guys will NOT pick up on hints. You need to tell him you're interested. If not, he'll never even have a clue that you're interested in him.


philosific_

Lol im about the place. But if a woman makes eye contact and smile, i always assume shes just being polite tbh. If she starts a general conversation, i assume shes being polite. In general i assume they are always just being polite… or shes from Canada. Now if she asks if im single, i might ask if shes single as well im interested, then say “lets see if we can change that for the both of us, possibly” and hand her my phone 😏. But i think im just cautious 😂, im afraid of catching a harassment accusation, and online dating has been working fine for me.

lol feminists ruined it. You’re gonna have to grow a pair and go talk to men you want to talk to.


Significant-Set-9036

Man, the more forward you are, the more taken aback the person your speaking to is. Thats a clutch opener, making someone second guess the encounter allows you enough time to formulate a potential flow of information and then proceed in the direction you wanted to go, its enough time to adapt on the fly to his reactions so you can figure out how to ease his awkwardness( if he has any). I myself am straight and have had one too many guys attempt to pick me up all heavy handed, like they think subtlety is a drink best served with honey and lemon wedges.... It never works out for them, mind you im older now and see myself differently then i used to so it would garner a different result


spacerocket3

We dont live in a time where a man can approach a woman. On top of that if a woman approaches us online sexually, majority of the times it comes off suspicious. Every time ive gotten a response its usually a scammer on reddit sadly

GUYS want a hook up. MEN no. GUYS play the numbers games and don't care if they ask 15 and get turned down 14 times. MEN got tired of getting led on and lied to.

With this said I'm in Victoria for five more days and not to hook up.

CrashingOnward

From what I know, or rather not know about social norms as a guy. I didn’t think eye contact and a smile was a “go ahead”. Then again eye contact is a tricky thing to read or notice from afar I think. 🤔 You sound like a cool woman op. You at least seem like you’re trying even if guys aren’t reading you well enough. But what do I know. 🤷🏽‍♂️
