Actually I think it may be a bit more nuanced than that, & it may also depend on context. This wknd I went to a large nightclub with a bunch of rooms. I went with one of my older friends, so I found myself in a space where I was averaging 5-10 years younger than the men there. Now as a single woman expecting her husband, I am always open & ready for him. Ie dressed well, friendly, open, happy, smiling, overall great energy. Honey I’ve never had so many men approach me in my life!!! I could not walk or move around the club without getting hounded. I had to hide at one stage as it was exhausting. I left with one number. I rejected several. However the one guy that I wanted to talk to never approached me. And fate so had it that we ended up in the same corner of the room. I engaged him in conversation & we hit it off. He actually revealed he was a holder of a special ticket (some men got this to give to women who approached them) & gave it to me, as no one had approached him the entire night. That night made me realise there are different types of men, especially in a club/social gathering setting. I took it that if a man doesn’t approach you, he’s not interested. But actually some men need to gather their data before making their move, so naturally they need time. Especially 30+ male, you are looking for more inherent qualities from a woman & also considering the baggage you may also be carrying from being hurt in previous relationships. You’ll therefore need to spend a good portion of the night assessing that woman. How she moves around the space. How approachable she is. Etc. It actually taught me that 1) men are looking at EVERYTHING & 2) the better quality of mate would’ve been assessing you the whole night so he needs to be given time. You may also need to position yourself in his vicinity.
@@yanikeonpurpose1000% agree. As a man that is 30+ I full endorse this message. This is the best advice women can use. How a woman moves in a social setting is very attractive.
Most times when men never approach you or talk to you is because they can sense you are not the one to be played with. And most times its also Gods protection!
When I was 19, I asked my neighbors if I was ugly 😂😩 she said no and asked me why would I ask that. I replied because when my friends and I go out, we have fun, we all link , I’ll have good chemistry with someone or someone will seem interested but it never goes anywhere 😂😂😂 like it just never works. Her husband literally said to me “You can tell you’re not the type of girl to let things slide and play those games. You’re not going to entertain the things they looking to do, I’ve seen and met your friends and those girls will” 😭😭The worst part was he wasn’t lying 😭😂 They played toooo much. I miss those neighbors. His wife was my coworker and we worked together and was neighbors for 2 years.
I have interviewed literally Hundreds of men about dating & relationships. #1 reason men look & don't approach is fear of rejection. Men run a complicated calculus of whether or not it's safe to approach us. If they don't feel it's safe, they don't approach. A lot of us shoot ourselves in the foot by going out in groups. Many men aren't going to approach you in a group, unless they are players. Guys don't want to be embarrassed. Ever notice when you somehow end up alone for a minute in a club that a guy might approach you? They feel safer then. It has less to do with confidence than people believe. I have interviewed firefighters who are decorated heroes & have saved hundreds of lives, that are too afraid to approach a woman. I interviewed a man that climbed Mt Everest, a mountain that has claimed hundreds of lives, but is afraid to approach. Firefighters & mountain climber not confident? Nonsense. A lot of guys, especially the best ones, are a little awkward when you first meet them. Don't focus on that too much. Once a guy gets comfortable with you they tend to be more confident. Men are really simple once you understand this.
Agreed! In my experience the ones that approach with no inhibitions are usually manipulators. The ones I was around often enough to notice they checked me out several times before approaching usually seemed to be the good guys. The problem is the good guys then complain later that women want “bad boys”. No the bad boys are just the ones that approach us first and unless we want to approach them, most of us aren’t going to wait a lifetime to be approached by the “good guys”.
I hope you least give him a smile 😊that would go a long way to show some interest....Body language is very important, because some ladies facial expressing is like if they sucking on something sour.....😂lol
Yes. This has been what I’ve figured out is the case majority of the time. Even some of those act like they can’t resist striking up some type of conversation, trying to make you laugh, etc
False. If you show no interest or look unapproachable which most women today, you likely not get approach. Women who are friendly, show interest and approachable will always get approached.
I know there’s some of you women like me who can question themselves and wonder what’s wrong with us. If you’re bettering yourself and have a good heart, consider yourself lucky not to be asked out by a lot of these men, especially the ones YOU find attractive. God may be preventing unnecessary heartache…
I was like that but I’ve gotten to the point I just don’t care. I do notice they’re more likely to reach out on social media. I feel like dating apps and social media in general are a crutch to men approaching in person.
Ladies, trust your season is coming!!! It’s better to be approached by NO ONE (even if this is literally for yearssss) rather than get approached by men you find intriguing or attractive and those relationships all fail because they’re not under the foundation of God. Just make sure you’re doing the work as Tony teaches and stay optimistic. You are worthy 💓
My husband never approached me because he thought I was married. He thought I was beautiful but wasn’t confident about approaching. I approached him because of his sweet spirit and genuine kindness and we’ll be married 8 yrs this year ❤
Smart woman, women have better intuition than us. You knew he was interested you, nothing with starting the conversation and he will pursue. Most don't take risk.
I think women should be programmed to do such. Women have the upper hand already with swarming the guys in. She has the say so so she should be the one to approach and or choose. I don't have time or energy to compete with men for a woman.
I remember when I was around 21 I had a crush on this intern teacher at my job. We literally locked eyes when we first met and I felt the chemistry but he never approached me. I had the biggest crush on him for about six months ! He would just always stare at me whenever he saw me and only spoke to me like twice. It was so bad even my coworkers were like “he likes you”. One of ‘em even called themselves confronting him to see why he wouldn’t talk to me (I didn’t ask!) Come to find out, he was the biggest flirt and had about two other female intern teachers that he had in rotation. I thought it was something wrong w/ me at the time (not pretty enough, was working as a custodian at the time so I felt he looked down on me) but now I understand that it was just God protecting me. It was such a shame tho cause he was so fine to me !
All women today don't look or smile anymore on their cell phones 24/7. All dating apps are only for hookups. Dating is dead. I've given up! I Look 35. 55, here 5'10, 170 lbs introverted here. Long -Term- Relationship is dead globally all due to smartphones. I hate women with dogs replacing them for a boyfriend, I hate women with tattoos, body piercing except on her earrings, drinking problems, doing drugs, smoking and acting very masculine. All huge red flags. No wonder why men have given up!
Tony, according to your logic "a man who does not approach you is your protection" I've been protected my whole life! Lol. I'm not looks challenged and am approachable/personable. At 30 years old, I can only chalk it up to God's sovereignty as to why I'm still single.
I’m now 40, single, childless and it’s okay. Actually, men stopped consistently asking women out 13-14 years ago and want women to pursue them, which isn’t normal. The social shift is sad, even over a decade later. I hope this helps you.
This is true.. a guy at the gym kept staring, and I found him cute. I was hoping he would approach but he never did and I felt like dang I gotta keep working on myself. Few months later I ran into him at a concert in town and he was with his girlfriend lol. Bless him for being faithful
I know this is going to sound super awkward but it always works. Practice “winking” at people who stare at you. It’s something nobody does in public so it throws everyone off and gets them laughing. It’s been my ice breaking tactic from across rooms for years! 😂💯
I get looks ALLLLLL the time. Like staring. But they don’t say anything. Which is okay with me because I would only entertain a man thats man enough to talk to me 😬
@@beefaye18 exactly. Thats so feminine to me. A huge turn off. I dont even smile to be honest. Women already have to do a lot in the society.. we have it the hardest.. and you don’t even have the basic courage to talk? Naa bruv, you can’t lead a household.
First of all Tony, you are hilarious. Your effort to not call someone ugly is top notch. Secondly, I have that happen all the time; they look but don't approach. Them being taken makes so much sense. It's more realistic than the idea that I just intimidate men. I'm going to stop taking it to heart and enjoy the ones who do approach.
That is so true I am single and I literally only had like 2guys approach me in 7 months when they see me they just stare like a deer in headlights… I am at the point where I am desperate…lol I just want a date , sneaky link or just a man’s presence.. and can’t just get it 😅
@@mrsyoungdolph3755 aww ! How old are you? It’s just not fear I watch some of these vloggers on UA-cam and I see them getting approached by guys all the time .
I been waiting on this one Tony! Came a few weeks too late but right on time just the same. I wondered why the man in the gym kept looking at me and I just thought he wasnt confident or I was scaring him with my serious face. So when I struck up general conversation with him, it was revealed he was taken and I respected that. He was very honest and said the only thing that he could do was look. And we keep our distance. If they don't approach me, "it's protection"!
I just wanted to comment and say your comment about your face made me laugh. I have serious resting bitch face when I'm working out. Lol. Keep up the good work! 💪
It depends on where you live too. Some places the men are more forward. I am from Baltimore and the forwardness up there is insufferable. I moved to Florida 10 years ago and men rarely approach, just stare. Ultimately, a MAN will approach if he’s really interested.
I just randomly went for a walk and came upon a house someone was building, I was curious so I asked the owner if he can show me around, I walk in and I see a man from behind I walk past and greet him..instant chemistry like it was just me and him, I proceed to walk and I go upstairs, a second later he comes up doesn't say anything just stare, note I am a very open friendly woman. Deep down I said to myself if a man wants a woman he will do anything to get you..I smiled talked to him briefly walked out the door and never saw him again. Now maybe because there were other people or he was working and my dad was also in my presence but I somehow moved around the house for him to ask for my number. Anyway the moral of the story is , I have grown to become a wife concious woman my old self would've asked for his number etc but my heart refused. Thanks to these kind of videos. Just wanted to share. Stay safe and God bless.
Honey, it doesn't matter who's around. Whether it be your dad, he'll the poppe, if a man wants you, he will approach you. I had a men approach me while my dad was next to me 😅. The men gave me his business card and all, trying to sweet talk me off my panties while my dad was sitting right next to me lmao
I think he was afraid to be accusing of being a stalker or a creep. A lot of us men don’t want to approach anymore because of false accusations and public shaming 😔
@@Rico401Prov I believe a man who is confident in himself will not allow a woman to walk away , men have hurt me in the past but I don't put them all in the same category so men also need to realize and say I don't care if she thinks I'm a creep I want to get to know her.
I seen this beautiful woman at McDonald’s and we caught each other eyes as she was leaving. She went to her car and drove off and 10 mins later she came back and said she just wanted to introduce her and sat down by and and we talked for 5 mins. She did a good job
No it’s because they only want secks and can tell the woman isn’t going to be an easy conquer. That’s why they only look. They are daydreaming in their head about secks with you.
Imma be real, I get the “how are you even single???” from both men and women all the time. I’m not a bad looking woman, I was a car show and atmosphere model for years (still am), work out, eat well dress well etc. Men stare for DAYSSSSSS but will never approach lol. Sometimes they orbit around me, especially if I’m at a show or car event. The only and I mean ONLY men that have approached me were: 1) taken (and I find out) 2) highly undesirable (poor hygiene, overly sexual right off the bat, someone’s grandfather lol, etc). I still have very little interest in playing role reversal by approaching men instead. But I do want to try being more intentional and strategic about where I am meeting them. Example, putting myself in SOCIAL settings that I both enjoy and am more likely to meet decent men who are less afraid to spark up conversation. Classes, seminars, restaurant bars, art gallery openings, etc. Best of luck Ladies, it’s hard out there lol
Just give the guy you're interested in the flirty eye look. Most men who are interested will try to make eye contact and if you give it back that's like a signal to them that you're interested.
I can understand us women showing interest/ being inviting towards a man but it’s a fine line between doing that and chasing. Be open to inviting him in, from there let him take the lead.
I love you for this comment. That’s all us men ask for. As a man I have no problem pursing you as a woman I love it actually I just want to make sure that it’s worth it.
I’ve been needing a video like this. This guy who follows me on instagram just hearts my photos and stories but doesn’t dm me. Mostly every other guy tries dming me except for him. I’ve met him in middle school but I only was there for a year before I moved away and we didn’t even really speak or were friends. We did have one conversation or two, but he had a girlfriend at the time. I’m 18 so I think it’s best to just let things go and focus on myself for now.
Both men and women have said to me, “You look like a woman that men have to bring their A-game to in order to approach you.” They say that I probably make too many men feel like they don’t have a chance. I used to feel bad about this but I don’t anymore. I’m so thankful that only the most accomplished and confident men approach me. Yes that means that I don’t get approached often but when I do, the man is always top tier and I love that.
This is a problem that I suffer from. I used to think maybe I dressed to “ rich” looking for average men and that’s why I am not approached as much. But I would never approach a man and rather prepare myself for when God send me my husband who has the confidence to take that leadership role ☺️ As always Tony your videos help me a lot🫶🏿
The idea that God will send you a husband is not biblical in any way. God rewards those who make effort, your husband will notice you and need to move like a wife. Women need to put themselves in the presence of men and then they will choose. Ask yourself this, do you exude femininity, are friendly, and approachable, and do show interest even in subtle ways. God will give something you are not prepared to receive.
I seen this beautiful woman at McDonald’s and we caught each other eyes as she was leaving. She went to her car and drove off and 10 mins later she came back and said she just wanted to introduce her and sat down by and and we talked for 5 mins.
@@moe808 Actually it is and it just show how much you know the Bible lol Have you ever heard “ He so find a wife, find a good thing”? Your logic is the exact grown boy mindset Tony tell us to stay away from. Be blessed and stay around to listen to more videos to learn something that can help you grow as a “man”.
@@itstimefortea4582 yes it says that but you have to be a wife and he has to identify you as a wife. If you think the role of a wife is easy you are quite mistaken. The standard of what a wife was in those times would disqualify most women today. What people define as a wife in the modern day is not even the bare minimum at best. Many women meet don't even carry themselves as a wife so I don't think there are many wives to pick from hence why men don't care to approach them. Never seen a woman that is wife material single older than 30.
@@moe808 You do not need to be a wife first, but more so present yourself in that way to be seen by a man who wants to be a husband first before finding a wife. I never said being a wife was easy but I know it’s worth it. Are you married? I don’t consume nor recognize the way modern women think. I am VERY traditional which would keep me in a position to only attract a traditional man. In Tony teachings, he teach that if it isn’t your season then God will keep you hidden from your husband until it is your time. This the reason why it’s important to have faith in God promises and his words that stand true today. I see plenty of men mainly rich who do not get married until their 30’s. That is my target audience; therefore, once I finished with my own purpose God will lead me to the man who is in submission to him that will provide to my standards and self worth. It’s simple when you actually align your life with God teachings and leadership.
The modelesque man approached me when I was younger and naive, and I gave him the cold shoulder multiple times, because deep down I was very suspicious because I knew guys like him were not usually interested in me. He befriended me though and I fell for him. Got used for about 3 years. My spirit was giving me sirens 🚨, that came out in my body language and initial treatment of him. But it was flattering and such a great temptation that I walked into the trap.
Listen! I was just told by a guy that he was unsure about approaching me because I looked mean. After I spoke to him, we chatted for a few and exchanged numbers. One text and that was it. Dead silence. Another guy asked for my number and I was hesitant because I normally don’t give out my number at all guys. He watched me interact with another customer on my job and assumed that I had given him my number also. He started sending crazy messages. I told him that I was still healing from my divorce (I’m fully recovered) and to take care. He is still messaging me with no response. I’m tired and ready to give up already.
There are many reasons why men stare and dont approach. I had one guy tell me that if a man is married and looks at you everyday at work and never approaches you, it means he just wants something pretty to look at or just admiring. I'm glad he never did approach me since he was married. Also, men stare because you look like somebody they know because Ive had a coworker tell me that I look so much like his mom. Or they just find you attractive and could be already in a relationship. Or just lack of confidence
A lot of guys won’t approach women because internally they know there’s far more of a huge chance they’ll get nowhere than there is in getting somewhere. Just because a woman’s looking at you and there’s a bit of eye contact happening it doesn’t means she’s actually interested therefore if she is interested it’s actually on her to make it completely clear to a man that she wants him to make a move And due to the complexity of a woman that’s not always as straight forward for a man as it seems even if she wants him to make the move. Men are well aware of how complex women can be
I've lived a lot of places. I noticed more in the south a lot of men will look but not approach a woman. In NYC or even the DMV area Men sent to be a bit more assertive. This is just my personal experience.
A lot of men in the South are DL. They’re truly b!tchmade. You know what, I believe most men, at least 50% between the ages of 18 and 45, are homosexuals.
@@Fraziercranium97 not going to lie majority of the approaches are aggressive , sometimes scary. But I guess they are very masculine with their approach to me that it can be a bit overwhelming because you might think they will do something bad to you if you reject them. It’s unpleasant but at least they are in their masculine. Some are genuine though
*It’s not about being afraid of women, but more about the fear of not knowing how to make the interaction smooth. Building confidence in social situations and learning how to read body language can make all the difference!*
A lot of men are insecure about themselves that's one of the reason they don't wanna approach women especially good women. They don't value themselves enough and wasn't taught this since childhood. Most of the girls they go for is bad girls anyways because they like play games with them. I know this from observation too many times and I see that they like that because it makes them feel better about themselves when really it tears them down. Second reason is they're either are taken or already Interested in someone else. Third reason is it could be God protecting you from attracting bad company into your life especially if you trying to heal or remove it from your aura. Finally just wait for the good men to come into your life maybe there's something inside you that you probably need to deal with to move on better from. Best of luck!💗
@@acali123 thats not what I meant. I know yall don't like rejection I was just you Most of you guys just like any other women are insecure about themselves. But however I get the whole rejection part even i dont like rejection but I rather for it to happened to be lead on or mislead if that makes sense.
@@jada3956 why does have to be insecurity? men are shamed if we dont approach and we get shamed for approaching. Men just came to conclusion that the juice isnt worth the squeeze. i wish we lived in a world where we can approach freely without consequences but this is reality.
@@acali123 first of all i never said you guys couldn't. Its highly obvious y'all are insecure and don't wanna admit it which I'm am not shaming you for. But I was agreeing with what he said in video about guys being insecure. If you didn't like what I said you could've ignored it. Secondly you can express yourself in anyway but it's how you do it.
ME TOO MOVEMENT have made men more careful at approaching women. Back in the day men would approach women all day long. Now , that dude that really you going to be careful how he approach you.
This is VERY confusing ……meanwhile so many women tell me “ men are shy, shoot your shot! I got my man by shooting my shot and he liked me but was shy” lol I give up on everything! BYE
@@la6136 very true! But if keep waiting then we’ll we might not ever find him! Also, my friend told me men are tired of women screaming independence so they just stopped asking now!
It really is . I have had the most success with saying hello to a man to show my interest and letting him go from there . Many have told me they thought I was taken or would reject them .
You are absolutely right..Men are hunters.. and the average man is smart enough to know when a Woman is out of their League... Ladies 80 percent of them know they don't have the money to persue a Queen . It's not you, they have played the game long enough to know who or who not to mess with. Majority of the time it's about their financial status. A man know when he's gone have to wine and dine a woman...He just knows...So that's why they just stare
Not all men are hunters and not all women are prey. A majority of the time, women are artificial and have a mask on to hide there true self. Men on their purpose don't have time and money to waste on a "Queen" we want traditional women that know how to show femininity. Hence why they would rather travel to other countries. 😊✌
I get asked why I’m single all the time by men but ironically they never ask me out. I am not sweating it though. I know they’re not my person, so I quietly keep doing my thing . The men that ask me that are heavily sexual at first without even getting to know me.
This would happen a lot to me in my 20s I would smile and they would get what I call the panic face. I asked my male friends what was going on and they said that I was pretty and was high maintenance so men assumed I would be rude and that I looked expensive. I replied but I work and pay for all my grooming. What am I supposed to do look unkept. It was confusing and upsetting. I left the US. Men act like they will be dragged to bloody hell if a woman says no. And when I would approach a guy they assumed it was a joke. It’s was all very confusing. I’m with my sons father now. So I’m good.
Tony's setting the scene in that first minute... I'm still remembering how this happened to me one evening at a noodle bar. I was waiting an eternity for my takeout and a handsome guy sitting nearby was doing exactly that. I kept waiting for him to approach me but he never did, and I remember heading home feeling confused and dejected. Wish Tony had been around then!!
@Heaven Jones Lol, the number of times women could say this about men! Difference is, we know intense staring with no intention of follow through can get us into a lot of trouble.
There’s always a spark! That’s when I go for it, I know how to see, then feel. But the feeling gotta be right as we are conversing. I always know from there regardless if there’s a continuation or not after the approach.
I cannot thank enough God for Tony Gaskins. This message was completely my answer from God. He is used by God in incredible ways. You are saving so many women. Thank you so much.
I was in McDonald’s and this guy came in and instantly locked on me. Handsome had his reputable work uniform on okkkk. He even asked me was I single and my name give me a compliment. We parked next to each other. I even went to write my number down. Then I said to myself 🤔 Don’t come for him if he didn’t send for you Sis☝🏾 Drove off…💪🏽🙏🏾
@@BrothaJohn-br2hd Well brother John…your wrong. I met a confident successful man one morning, paid for my coffee and took me out later that day for lunch. Calls me everyday even when he’s busy. He makes me feel like the most beautiful woman in the world. Why because I rest in my femininity and he’s in his masculinity. He chose me!!! I don’t have to chase him down or make the first move. I’m here to attract not chase honey. I love ❤️ this for both men and women. Restoring order…but you maybe one of these sassy men drizzle drizzle men sooooooo this may go over your head🙈😑🤔😂😂😂
Some men don’t approach you because they see they can’t run game on you. And some genuinely like you but afraid of rejection so yes they will watch and wait.
You’ve made some great points Mr. Gaskins. I will forever remember how “good” a man is who stares but not approach me. I love this perspective and gem that you’re shared. There are a LOT of good men around. 😍😉👀🤣
I remember years ago, when I was out with a hating behind woman (she wasn't a friend), I told her every morning omw to work, this officer would always stare me down in his car, but never speaks to me. Her response was, "Maybe he's just not interested in you." From that moment, I realized she was hating.
@Teddiii CareBear Yep and hot pants women will try to run a play with a man on your behalf...like you asked them to. I don't need no lustful spirit, manish, single for a clear reason, herself, women playing devil match making😂😂😂 Good for you. Don't tell nobody, but God.😉
I get this all the time, some even make comments that my “husband is lucky to be with someone like me”. I even made a joke to my mum that I should wear a sign that says single😂😂 so they can stop assuming that I am married.
Me being a man there’s a few reason why I will look at a woman and let her know I’m looking but won’t approach her because of my faith most times, or just feels she wouldn’t be interested in me but faith is the main reason for me. If I’m taken I’m not gonna give that look of interest to a woman. I also agree with your number 2 reason kinda what I mean by my 2nd reason
This was very helpful. I am an attractive woman I get looks from men often and am always complimented. But honestly majority of the time when I’m walking past men I look the other way because I’m simply not interested in conversation at this time. But when I do get to that point I’m going to apply what I learned here for sure!
When a guy has found me attractive; they stare so hard it makes me uncomfortable 😳. At a work conference this guy turned around the whole day stared at me so hard that I wanted to get up and leave. He walked over and introduced himself at the end and the whole room seemed to disappear 🫠. Unfortunately I was still married even though I was going through a divorce…😢
Thank you so much. I recently learned that it is best for a woman not I chase a man for many reasons. Recently I have noticed one guy in my school looking at me but no really trying to talk to me and I was wondering why and started to make assumptions as to what would be the reason. I am deciding to no think about it. Also your video was well presented and easy to understand, thanks once again.
A lot of men can’t handle rejection and they have what’s called egos. This happens all the time to me as well they stare and I stare back… nobody makes a move 🤷🏽♀️😂
Why staring back and forth if you won't take any action right🤭 What a turn off. If it was ego, they wouldn't have fear of rejection imho. Ego would dictate, I'm just telling my intentions and getting an answer, so I'd be done with this. It's her loss or her gain. I will go after what I want and like. This is more like ego and selfishness in my opinion.
thank you so much. so many times i wondered if i should do something - in some cases i did which backfired on me - and now i know it's for my protection that he didn't approach me because he's either taken, a good man who isn't attracted to me and doesn't want to use me or he might be shy (which often is not the case). thank you !!!!!
Another reason a man would stare and not approach, is because the woman is showing off her body parts, which is visually attractive, but not what the man sees as wife material. So he just enjoys the eye candy.
I’m never going to approach a man. Idgaf what the case is. Ik my value & ik I’m beautiful within myself. But he’s not lying about men watches everything because it gets on my last nerves 😂😂😂 this boy at my job notice that when I’m nervous I tend to rub my eyes. He gone say I noticed whenever you rub your eyes it means your nervous😂 I started laughing cause why is he in my business like that!!!!!!!! Then another time when we be talking he’ll try to stare at me in my eyes and I always look the other way then he gone say you can’t seem to make eye contact for long and I can’t lmfaooo. I truly can’t. Especially if ik the guy is interested in me. But it’s so funny cause he be really thinking he know me but he be right.
I’m Going through this now. There’s this one delivery guy on my job but he was starring at me hard to make sure I know he sees me. Now he speaks when he can and I speak back and smile. However he hadn’t made a move. Well one day I heard him have a conversation to one of the workers he knew and she mention oh say hi to so & so!!he kind of stopped because I was standing there but didn’t hear the name however it think they may have said a women name. He didn’t respond and walked out. I think he may be taken but was trying to see if he can my attention. this video is like confirmation!
My ex always felt the need to go on dating apps to find women. He said if he saw a woman out and about and he really found her attractive, he wouldn't approach her because he doesn't want to be the guy who gets rejected in front of everyone. So if there's a chance that she won't be interested for whatever reason, most guys won't even think to approach a woman. According to him, only guys who are losers with nothing to lose will approach.
A quick reminder to all.. one’s actions does not define you! You are a gem in gods eyes, there’s no need for you to wonder why this why that, am I enough, why didn’t he/she choose me, or cheated/ leave me… sometimes rejection is gods protection and Rejection comes in many forms. If only you knew that with the right one god sends, there will be no confusion, you won’t have to question a thing because god is not a god who brings confusion to his children. Until god sends you the right one, work on being the best version of yourself, work on being a righteous servant for god and these things will be added unto you, god has that wife/husband for you, although there’s work to do on your end. Don’t get discouraged on when will it happen but rather embrace your time in singleness, it’s truly a beautiful thing! Use this as your motivation “ the man or woman you will become” you can be a 10 in the eyes of others but have the heart of a devil, you can be the ugliest to others but have the heart of an angel. It’s not about looks it’s about one’s heart, spirit & soul. most people hop into a relationship not knowing what kind of demons that person has latched on to them, when intimacy is involved. Save yourself from a heartache and work on yourself be better for god, yourself and future wife/husband. Salt and Light.. 13You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its savor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men. 14You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.… Galatians 5:13 For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. Proverbs 16:9 The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps. Love you guys protect your temple💗be set apart from the world.
The guy who delivers my mail is very cute. I would talk to him if he tried but he has never said anything. I take it as he has someone or he’s not interested.
He’s a mailman who sees you everyday. You realize how risky it is for him to flirt and assume incorrectly? Just saying. You have to make it obvious you find him attractive
I take it as a compliment to my outward demeanor lol. Many men will waste your time and know when they have a naive hook. Many manipulative ppl out here and head cases.
Wow! - "A man that do not approach me, is my protection". I will never forget this great word sent from Heaven. Thank you so much Mr. Gaskins!
Actually I think it may be a bit more nuanced than that, & it may also depend on context. This wknd I went to a large nightclub with a bunch of rooms. I went with one of my older friends, so I found myself in a space where I was averaging 5-10 years younger than the men there.
Now as a single woman expecting her husband, I am always open & ready for him. Ie dressed well, friendly, open, happy, smiling, overall great energy. Honey I’ve never had so many men approach me in my life!!! I could not walk or move around the club without getting hounded. I had to hide at one stage as it was exhausting.
I left with one number. I rejected several. However the one guy that I wanted to talk to never approached me. And fate so had it that we ended up in the same corner of the room. I engaged him in conversation & we hit it off. He actually revealed he was a holder of a special ticket (some men got this to give to women who approached them) & gave it to me, as no one had approached him the entire night.
That night made me realise there are different types of men, especially in a club/social gathering setting. I took it that if a man doesn’t approach you, he’s not interested. But actually some men need to gather their data before making their move, so naturally they need time. Especially 30+ male, you are looking for more inherent qualities from a woman & also considering the baggage you may also be carrying from being hurt in previous relationships. You’ll therefore need to spend a good portion of the night assessing that woman. How she moves around the space. How approachable she is. Etc. It actually taught me that 1) men are looking at EVERYTHING & 2) the better quality of mate would’ve been assessing you the whole night so he needs to be given time. You may also need to position yourself in his vicinity.
Thanking God because he is always with us keeping us on track to meet the right one! 💯

Most times when men never approach you or talk to you is because they can sense you are not the one to be played with. And most times its also Gods protection!
When I was 19, I asked my neighbors if I was ugly 😂😩 she said no and asked me why would I ask that. I replied because when my friends and I go out, we have fun, we all link , I’ll have good chemistry with someone or someone will seem interested but it never goes anywhere 😂😂😂 like it just never works. Her husband literally said to me “You can tell you’re not the type of girl to let things slide and play those games. You’re not going to entertain the things they looking to do, I’ve seen and met your friends and those girls will” 😭😭The worst part was he wasn’t lying 😭😂 They played toooo much. I miss those neighbors. His wife was my coworker and we worked together and was neighbors for 2 years.

@@genovasquez8361no we don’t
I have interviewed literally Hundreds of men about dating & relationships. #1 reason men look & don't approach is fear of rejection. Men run a complicated calculus of whether or not it's safe to approach us. If they don't feel it's safe, they don't approach.
A lot of us shoot ourselves in the foot by going out in groups. Many men aren't going to approach you in a group, unless they are players. Guys don't want to be embarrassed. Ever notice when you somehow end up alone for a minute in a club that a guy might approach you? They feel safer then.
It has less to do with confidence than people believe. I have interviewed firefighters who are decorated heroes & have saved hundreds of lives, that are too afraid to approach a woman. I interviewed a man that climbed Mt Everest, a mountain that has claimed hundreds of lives, but is afraid to approach. Firefighters & mountain climber not confident? Nonsense.
A lot of guys, especially the best ones, are a little awkward when you first meet them. Don't focus on that too much. Once a guy gets comfortable with you they tend to be more confident.
Men are really simple once you understand this.
Simple is right
I have heard this multiple times as well .the fear of rejection is a big deal.
Agreed! In my experience the ones that approach with no inhibitions are usually manipulators. The ones I was around often enough to notice they checked me out several times before approaching usually seemed to be the good guys. The problem is the good guys then complain later that women want “bad boys”. No the bad boys are just the ones that approach us first and unless we want to approach them, most of us aren’t going to wait a lifetime to be approached by the “good guys”.

False. If you show no interest or look unapproachable which most women today, you likely not get approach. Women who are friendly, show interest and approachable will always get approached.
I know there’s some of you women like me who can question themselves and wonder what’s wrong with us.

Ladies, trust your season is coming!!! It’s better to be approached by NO ONE (even if this is literally for yearssss) rather than get approached by men you find intriguing or attractive and those relationships all fail because they’re not under the foundation of God. Just make sure you’re doing the work as Tony teaches and stay optimistic. You are worthy 💓
My husband never approached me because he thought I was married. He thought I was beautiful but wasn’t confident about approaching. I approached him because of his sweet spirit and genuine kindness and we’ll be married 8 yrs this year ❤
You are the bees knees ❤💯
Smart woman, women have better intuition than us. You knew he was interested you, nothing with starting the conversation and he will pursue. Most don't take risk.
Interesting ❤❤
I think women should be programmed to do such. Women have the upper hand already with swarming the guys in. She has the say so so she should be the one to approach and or choose. I don't have time or energy to compete with men for a woman.
Aww that’s so sweet, congratulations!! 🥰🎉🔥
I remember when I was around 21 I had a crush on this intern teacher at my job. We literally locked eyes when we first met and I felt the chemistry but he never approached me. I had the biggest crush on him for about six months ! He would just always stare at me whenever he saw me and only spoke to me like twice. It was so bad even my coworkers were like “he likes you”. One of ‘em even called themselves confronting him to see why he wouldn’t talk to me (I didn’t ask!)
Come to find out, he was the biggest flirt and had about two other female intern teachers that he had in rotation. I thought it was something wrong w/ me at the time (not pretty enough, was working as a custodian at the time so I felt he looked down on me) but now I understand that it was just God protecting me. It was such a shame tho cause he was so fine to me !
Lol news flash. He worked hard to get where he’s at. You think he’s gonna stick with just one chick?
Most men want multiple options. Only higher status men like him can pull it off

Tony, according to your logic "a man who does not approach you is your protection" I've been protected my whole life! Lol. I'm not looks challenged and am approachable/personable. At 30 years old, I can only chalk it up to God's sovereignty as to why I'm still single.
I’m now 40, single, childless and it’s okay. Actually, men stopped consistently asking women out 13-14 years ago and want women to pursue them, which isn’t normal. The social shift is sad, even over a decade later. I hope this helps you.

I been waiting on this one Tony! Came a few weeks too late but right on time just the same. I wondered why the man in the gym kept looking at me and I just thought he wasnt confident or I was scaring him with my serious face. So when I struck up general conversation with him, it was revealed he was taken and I respected that. He was very honest and said the only thing that he could do was look. And we keep our distance. If they don't approach me, "it's protection"!
I just wanted to comment and say your comment about your face made me laugh. I have serious resting bitch face when I'm working out. Lol. Keep up the good work! 💪
The gym is probably the last place to meet anyone serious I guess. I see videos where people are likening them to the club lol.
Dang so he admitted “the only thing he could do was look” that’s crazy
It depends on where you live too. Some places the men are more forward. I am from Baltimore and the forwardness up there is insufferable. I moved to Florida 10 years ago and men rarely approach, just stare. Ultimately, a MAN will approach if he’s really interested.
Well, being someone from Florida, I know a lot of them are DL, b1tchmade, and sassy.
Everytime I see a baddie in public, I lowkey start convulsing inside but outside try to play it cool 😂
I just randomly went for a walk and came upon a house someone was building, I was curious so I asked the owner if he can show me around, I walk in and I see a man from behind I walk past and greet him..instant chemistry like it was just me and him, I proceed to walk and I go upstairs, a second later he comes up doesn't say anything just stare, note I am a very open friendly woman. Deep down I said to myself if a man wants a woman he will do anything to get you..I smiled talked to him briefly walked out the door and never saw him again.
Now maybe because there were other people or he was working and my dad was also in my presence but I somehow moved around the house for him to ask for my number.
Anyway the moral of the story is , I have grown to become a wife concious woman my old self would've asked for his number etc but my heart refused. Thanks to these kind of videos. Just wanted to share. Stay safe and God bless.
Wow.....they be missing out
Honey, it doesn't matter who's around. Whether it be your dad, he'll the poppe, if a man wants you, he will approach you. I had a men approach me while my dad was next to me 😅. The men gave me his business card and all, trying to sweet talk me off my panties while my dad was sitting right next to me lmao
I think he was afraid to be accusing of being a stalker or a creep. A lot of us men don’t want to approach anymore because of false accusations and public shaming 😔
@@Rico401Prov I believe a man who is confident in himself will not allow a woman to walk away , men have hurt me in the past but I don't put them all in the same category so men also need to realize and say I don't care if she thinks I'm a creep I want to get to know her.

No it’s because they only want secks and can tell the woman isn’t going to be an easy conquer. That’s why they only look. They are daydreaming in their head about secks with you.
Imma be real, I get the “how are you even single???” from both men and women all the time. I’m not a bad looking woman, I was a car show and atmosphere model for years (still am), work out, eat well dress well etc. Men stare for DAYSSSSSS but will never approach lol. Sometimes they orbit around me, especially if I’m at a show or car event. The only and I mean ONLY men that have approached me were:
1) taken (and I find out)
2) highly undesirable (poor hygiene, overly sexual right off the bat, someone’s grandfather lol, etc).
I still have very little interest in playing role reversal by approaching men instead. But I do want to try being more intentional and strategic about where I am meeting them. Example, putting myself in SOCIAL settings that I both enjoy and am more likely to meet decent men who are less afraid to spark up conversation. Classes, seminars, restaurant bars, art gallery openings, etc. Best of luck Ladies, it’s hard out there lol
Girl you fine❤
Just give the guy you're interested in the flirty eye look. Most men who are interested will try to make eye contact and if you give it back that's like a signal to them that you're interested.
💯agree about the ones who race to approach. Just speaking or having a conversation in social settings is a good way to let them.know the interest .
I know someone with the very same problem and I wish I had an answer…
How old are you?
So, why look and stare at me if you’re not attracted to me? What kinda mess is that?
People watching. Maybe whatever wearing or the way you did your hair caught his attention to look
I can understand us women showing interest/ being inviting towards a man but it’s a fine line between doing that and chasing. Be open to inviting him in, from there let him take the lead.
I love you for this comment. That’s all us men ask for. As a man I have no problem pursing you as a woman I love it actually I just want to make sure that it’s worth it.
I’ve been needing a video like this. This guy who follows me on instagram just hearts my photos and stories but doesn’t dm me. Mostly every other guy tries dming me except for him. I’ve met him in middle school but I only was there for a year before I moved away and we didn’t even really speak or were friends. We did have one conversation or two, but he had a girlfriend at the time. I’m 18 so I think it’s best to just let things go and focus on myself for now.
Yea focus on you and your paper the right one will come at the right time and approach you
Wow Thanks Tony. I always assume a guy is taken or just not attracted to me, if they don’t approach. And your logic is so spot on.
Both men and women have said to me, “You look like a woman that men have to bring their A-game to in order to approach you.” They say that I probably make too many men feel like they don’t have a chance. I used to feel bad about this but I don’t anymore. I’m so thankful that only the most accomplished and confident men approach me. Yes that means that I don’t get approached often but when I do, the man is always top tier and I love that.
This is a problem that I suffer from. I used to think maybe I dressed to “ rich” looking for average men and that’s why I am not approached as much. But I would never approach a man and rather prepare myself for when God send me my husband who has the confidence to take that leadership role ☺️ As always Tony your videos help me a lot🫶🏿
The idea that God will send you a husband is not biblical in any way. God rewards those who make effort, your husband will notice you and need to move like a wife. Women need to put themselves in the presence of men and then they will choose. Ask yourself this, do you exude femininity, are friendly, and approachable, and do show interest even in subtle ways. God will give something you are not prepared to receive.

Never seen a woman that is wife material single older than 30.
@@moe808 You do not need to be a wife first, but more so present yourself in that way to be seen by a man who wants to be a husband first before finding a wife. I never said being a wife was easy but I know it’s worth it. Are you married? I don’t consume nor recognize the way modern women think. I am VERY traditional which would keep me in a position to only attract a traditional man. In Tony teachings, he teach that if it isn’t your season then God will keep you hidden from your husband until it is your time. This the reason why it’s important to have faith in God promises and his words that stand true today. I see plenty of men mainly rich who do not get married until their 30’s. That is my target audience; therefore, once I finished with my own purpose God will lead me to the man who is in submission to him that will provide to my standards and self worth. It’s simple when you actually align your life with God teachings and leadership.
The modelesque man approached me when I was younger and naive, and I gave him the cold shoulder multiple times, because deep down I was very suspicious because I knew guys like him were not usually interested in me. He befriended me though and I fell for him. Got used for about 3 years. My spirit was giving me sirens 🚨, that came out in my body language and initial treatment of him. But it was flattering and such a great temptation that I walked into the trap.

Listen! I was just told by a guy that he was unsure about approaching me because I looked mean. After I spoke to him, we chatted for a few and exchanged numbers. One text and that was it. Dead silence.
Another guy asked for my number and I was hesitant because I normally don’t give out my number at all guys. He watched me interact with another customer on my job and assumed that I had given him my number also. He started sending crazy messages. I told him that I was still healing from my divorce (I’m fully recovered) and to take care. He is still messaging me with no response.

There are many reasons why men stare and dont approach. I had one guy tell me that if a man is married and looks at you everyday at work and never approaches you, it means he just wants something pretty to look at or just admiring. I'm glad he never did approach me since he was married. Also, men stare because you look like somebody they know because Ive had a coworker tell me that I look so much like his mom. Or they just find you attractive and could be already in a relationship. Or just lack of confidence
Clear, concise, and 100% truth!!! Thanks for the gems. Your honesty is refreshing. You are appreciated!!! No flattery intended.
A lot of guys won’t approach women because internally they know there’s far more of a huge chance they’ll get nowhere than there is in getting somewhere.
Just because a woman’s looking at you and there’s a bit of eye contact happening it doesn’t means she’s actually interested therefore if she is interested it’s actually on her to make it completely clear to a man that she wants him to make a move
And due to the complexity of a woman that’s not always as straight forward for a man as it seems even if she wants him to make the move.
Men are well aware of how complex women can be
You're the most sincere to me out of all the coaches. Feels really natural coming from you. Thanks ♥
I've lived a lot of places. I noticed more in the south a lot of men will look but not approach a woman. In NYC or even the DMV area Men sent to be a bit more assertive. This is just my personal experience.

@@Fraziercranium97 not going to lie majority of the approaches are aggressive , sometimes scary. But I guess they are very masculine with their approach to me that it can be a bit overwhelming because you might think they will do something bad to you if you reject them.

@@pamelaking579 Thank you. 🙏🏽🙌🏽
A lot of men are insecure about themselves that's one of the reason they don't wanna approach women especially good women. They don't value themselves enough and wasn't taught this since childhood. Most of the girls they go for is bad girls anyways because they like play games with them. I know this from observation too many times and I see that they like that because it makes them feel better about themselves when really it tears them down. Second reason is they're either are taken or already Interested in someone else. Third reason is it could be God protecting you from attracting bad company into your life especially if you trying to heal or remove it from your aura. Finally just wait for the good men to come into your life maybe there's something inside you that you probably need to deal with to move on better from. Best of luck!💗

But I was agreeing with what he said in video about guys being insecure. If you didn't like what I said you could've ignored it. Secondly you can express yourself in anyway but it's how you do it.
ME TOO MOVEMENT have made men more careful at approaching women. Back in the day men would approach women all day long. Now , that dude that really you going to be careful how he approach you.
Thanks!
A lot of the time I'll see a beautiful woman and think 'she's pretty' but then I remember I'm broke and have enough problems😅
We all are mostly broke you can still approach lol
LOOOOOOOOOOL I love the honesty
THIS!!!!! Especially the second part!
Congratulations on the new office! Love from South Africa 🇿🇦 ❤️🙏🏾
Love that office setup! Check your sound; it's low.
The best advice hands down
Thank you again. I'll watch your videos until this knowledge is drilled into my head and I stop seeing things from a uniformed perspective
You are so awesome in your conversations and it’s confirmation from GOD Mr Gaskins 🙌🏾🙌🏾😭
TG add your mini mic when your in the office please. My volume on max! 😂
Same. I thought something was wrong with my volume! Lol
@Reshae2006 lol he said because he was in the office and the walls are thin, he didn't want to talk loud
Thank, Thank you, Tony, your heaven sent. God blessed you. 🙏🏼💙🙏🏼💙
This is VERY confusing ……meanwhile so many women tell me “ men are shy, shoot your shot! I got my man by shooting my shot and he liked me but was shy” lol I give up on everything! BYE
If a man doesnt have the confidence to approach you , he can not be a leader to you or your family.
No foreal🤣 Very confusing!
I would ask those women why they want to be in a relationship with a man who has such little confidence and such bad communication skills?
@@la6136 very true! But if keep waiting then we’ll we might not ever find him! Also, my friend told me men are tired of women screaming independence so they just stopped asking now!
It really is . I have had the most success with saying hello to a man to show my interest and letting him go from there . Many have told me they thought I was taken or would reject them .
You are absolutely right..Men are hunters.. and the average man is smart enough to know when a Woman is out of their League... Ladies 80 percent of them know they don't have the money to persue a Queen . It's not you, they have played the game long enough to know who or who not to mess with. Majority of the time it's about their financial status. A man know when he's gone have to wine and dine a woman...He just knows...So that's why they just stare
Intimidating......Be@utiful1, straightalk & Company!
Not all men are hunters and not all women are prey. A majority of the time, women are artificial and have a mask on to hide there true self. Men on their purpose don't have time and money to waste on a "Queen" we want traditional women that know how to show femininity. Hence why they would rather travel to other countries. 😊✌
So true 😄.
Men who are seeking pay to play will just get a prostitute. Why not just drop $200 for an hour if yall are charging? Why do a long-term subscription?
I get asked why I’m single all the time by men but ironically they never ask me out. I am not sweating it though. I know they’re not my person, so I quietly keep doing my thing . The men that ask me that are heavily sexual at first without even getting to know me.
Right ! And sometimes it's the TAKEN ones who act like that 🙄
Same here! And I'm very attractive and in good shape! But over a year and no dates!!!
@@sherryj738 okay
You’re a Black woman in America nobody takes you serious of course all they wanted is sex
@@FoodNNewsTVliar
The cold hard truth !! I appreciate it !!!🙏🏾💯
Mr Gaskins : out of ALL of the videos you've done, thos one was the most REAL. Thank you. Well spoken Sir.❤
Watching while my 5 year old laying on me, she looks at my phone and point to you Tony and say “He’s pretty” 😂
But looks fade people often forget that so you better come with a good personality.......
This would happen a lot to me in my 20s I would smile and they would get what I call the panic face. I asked my male friends what was going on and they said that I was pretty and was high maintenance so men assumed I would be rude and that I looked expensive. I replied but I work and pay for all my grooming. What am I supposed to do look unkept. It was confusing and upsetting. I left the US. Men act like they will be dragged to bloody hell if a woman says no. And when I would approach a guy they assumed it was a joke. It’s was all very confusing. I’m with my sons father now. So I’m good.
Very confusing. I'm over it
Tony's setting the scene in that first minute... I'm still remembering how this happened to me one evening at a noodle bar. I was waiting an eternity for my takeout and a handsome guy sitting nearby was doing exactly that. I kept waiting for him to approach me but he never did, and I remember heading home feeling confused and dejected.
Wish Tony had been around then!!
@Heaven Jones Lol, the number of times women could say this about men! Difference is, we know intense staring with no intention of follow through can get us into a lot of trouble.
There’s always a spark! That’s when I go for it, I know how to see, then feel. But the feeling gotta be right as we are conversing. I always know from there regardless if there’s a continuation or not after the approach.
I cannot thank enough God for Tony Gaskins. This message was completely my answer from God. He is used by God in incredible ways. You are saving so many women. Thank you so much.
I was in McDonald’s and this guy came in and instantly locked on me. Handsome had his reputable work uniform on okkkk.
He even asked me was I single and my name give me a compliment.
We parked next to each other. I even went to write my number down. Then I said to myself 🤔
Don’t come for him if he didn’t send for you Sis☝🏾
Drove off…💪🏽🙏🏾
That coulda been your future husband, but hey you don’t give a damn anyways 😆
@@gsecc Nah I think she made the right move. If he was her future husband he would have asked for her number
When your an elderly woman all alone, you're gonna regret that sense of entitlement. You missed out on your husband because of princess syndrome.
@@BrothaJohn-br2hd Well brother John…your wrong. I met a confident successful man one morning, paid for my coffee and took me out later that day for lunch. Calls me everyday even when he’s busy. He makes me feel like the most beautiful woman in the world. Why because I rest in my femininity and he’s in his masculinity. He chose me!!! I don’t have to chase him down or make the first move. I’m here to attract not chase honey. I love ❤️ this for both men and women. Restoring order…but you maybe one of these sassy men drizzle drizzle men sooooooo this may go over your head🙈😑🤔😂😂😂
@@lovinglatonya3499 I dont believe you
Best video I have ever seen. Very very insightful. Every teenage girlie deserve to watch this video.
Some men don’t approach you because they see they can’t run game on you. And some genuinely like you but afraid of rejection so yes they will watch and wait.
You’ve made some great points Mr. Gaskins. I will forever remember how “good” a man is who stares but not approach me. I love this perspective and gem that you’re shared. There are a LOT of good men around. 😍😉👀🤣
A lot of thm want u to approach thm....boy plez ✌
Period. Boy byeee 😂
@@DaintyAbby 😂😂😂 ...bump that
💯
😂
Nope!
This was the realest!!! Thank you for the clarity!!
Ladies if a man doesn’t approach you, he might already have one of your type in rotation. 😂
Great advice, wonderfully and sensitively spoken. Thanks Yah Bless!
Thank you for these videos Tony, you have no idea how helpful they are. God bless you.
Tony, Thank You!!!
This message will change my mindset when it comes to the "precieved rejection" that I receive from men. Blessings!🙏🏾
I remember years ago, when I was out with a hating behind woman (she wasn't a friend), I told her every morning omw to work, this officer would always stare me down in his car, but never speaks to me. Her response was, "Maybe he's just not interested in you." From that moment, I realized she was hating.
Honestly, men look and don’t approach for two reasons. 1)They are afraid of rejection. 2) you look mean and unpleasant.
When people ask who I think is cute I be lying. I don’t want nobody to know who I REALLY like df😂
Why?
@@j-tenn226 because some women are messy and try to take the men that you like. They don’t even really like the man, they just do it to make you mad🙄
@Teddiii CareBear Yep and hot pants women will try to run a play with a man on your behalf...like you asked them to.
I don't need no lustful spirit, manish, single for a clear reason, herself, women playing devil match making😂😂😂 Good for you. Don't tell nobody, but God.😉
I get this all the time, some even make comments that my “husband is lucky to be with someone like me”. I even made a joke to my mum that I should wear a sign that says single😂😂 so they can stop assuming that I am married.
I get asked why I’m single alllll the time 😊
Sis if you make one, make me one too 😅 sameeeeeeee
@@n.Lenice 😂😂great idea! another income stream, Tony would be proud that we implement what we learn.
@@christinewarren8134 the struggle is real Sis🤣🤣now how do you wear a sign and not seem desperate🤪
@@mariangwenya5556 👀 🤣
Me being a man there’s a few reason why I will look at a woman and let her know I’m looking but won’t approach her because of my faith most times, or just feels she wouldn’t be interested in me but faith is the main reason for me. If I’m taken I’m not gonna give that look of interest to a woman. I also agree with your number 2 reason kinda what I mean by my 2nd reason
This was very helpful. I am an attractive woman I get looks from men often and am always complimented. But honestly majority of the time when I’m walking past men I look the other way because I’m simply not interested in conversation at this time. But when I do get to that point I’m going to apply what I learned here for sure!
Number 1 reason men don't approach is fear of rejection. He could be attracted to you but never ends up obtaining the confidence.
Thank you for this advice 🙏🏼 I am absolutely floored 💯 God bless you.
When a guy has found me attractive; they stare so hard it makes me uncomfortable 😳. At a work conference this guy turned around the whole day stared at me so hard that I wanted to get up and leave. He walked over and introduced himself at the end and the whole room seemed to disappear 🫠. Unfortunately I was still married even though I was going through a divorce…😢
Thank you so much. I recently learned that it is best for a woman not I chase a man for many reasons. Recently I have noticed one guy in my school looking at me but no really trying to talk to me and I was wondering why and started to make assumptions as to what would be the reason. I am deciding to no think about it. Also your video was well presented and easy to understand, thanks once again.
A lot of men can’t handle rejection and they have what’s called egos. This happens all the time to me as well they stare and I stare back… nobody makes a move 🤷🏽♀️😂
Why staring back and forth if you won't take any action right🤭 What a turn off. If it was ego, they wouldn't have fear of rejection imho. Ego would dictate, I'm just telling my intentions and getting an answer, so I'd be done with this. It's her loss or her gain. I will go after what I want and like. This is more like ego and selfishness in my opinion.
thank you so much. so many times i wondered if i should do something - in some cases i did which backfired on me - and now i know it's for my protection that he didn't approach me because he's either taken, a good man who isn't attracted to me and doesn't want to use me or he might be shy (which often is not the case). thank you !!!!!
I always assume they are taken...so ✌
Lol if they have some level of sanity and a job, I assume they are taken
Same
@@genovasquez8361 sounds wimpy
@@genovasquez8361 Yeah...but u could miss out 😬...IJS
@@genovasquez8361 understood...if thats the case....to each its own 👍
Thank you for insight
Another reason a man would stare and not approach, is because the woman is showing off her body parts, which is visually attractive, but not what the man sees as wife material. So he just enjoys the eye candy.
Point, blank, perioddttt‼️👏🏾👏🏾💯💯
right on time tony thank you 🙏🏾
Good information and wisdom. Passing this to my daughters❤
I’m never going to approach a man. Idgaf what the case is. Ik my value & ik I’m beautiful within myself. But he’s not lying about men watches everything because it gets on my last nerves 😂😂😂 this boy at my job notice that when I’m nervous I tend to rub my eyes. He gone say I noticed whenever you rub your eyes it means your nervous😂 I started laughing cause why is he in my business like that!!!!!!!! Then another time when we be talking he’ll try to stare at me in my eyes and I always look the other way then he gone say you can’t seem to make eye contact for long and I can’t lmfaooo. I truly can’t. Especially if ik the guy is interested in me. But it’s so funny cause he be really thinking he know me but he be right.
@Heaven Jones I said the same thing ain lying
Hmm… I have a co worker like that too 😅 🤔
Tony be having the remedy… if i ever get an inkling that i feel “lonely” I just watch one of his videos 🤣🤣🤣 im good now with being single
I’m
Going through this now. There’s this one delivery guy on my job but he was starring at me hard to make sure I know he sees me. Now he speaks when he can and I speak back and smile. However he hadn’t made a move. Well one day I heard him have a conversation to one of the workers he knew and she mention oh say hi to so & so!!he kind of stopped because I was standing there but didn’t hear the name however it think they may have said a women name. He didn’t respond and walked out. I think he may be taken but was trying to see if he can my attention. this video is like confirmation!
just be minded no one is not perfect but something going to happend down the road
Everytime a topic comes up, I see a video you recently posted explaining that very thing😂 always on time
My ex always felt the need to go on dating apps to find women. He said if he saw a woman out and about and he really found her attractive, he wouldn't approach her because he doesn't want to be the guy who gets rejected in front of everyone. So if there's a chance that she won't be interested for whatever reason, most guys won't even think to approach a woman. According to him, only guys who are losers with nothing to lose will approach.
I can see that.
Who wants to be rejected infront of everyone
@@liggmabawls5634 Exactly
you made me feel so much better .
It’s always a compliment or this approach just looking .
I always be thinking in my head. They know I can see them right 😂
A quick reminder to all.. one’s actions does not define you! You are a gem in gods eyes, there’s no need for you to wonder why this why that, am I enough, why didn’t he/she choose me, or cheated/ leave me… sometimes rejection is gods protection and Rejection comes in many forms.
If only you knew that with the right one god sends, there will be no confusion, you won’t have to question a thing because god is not a god who brings confusion to his children. Until god sends you the right one, work on being the best version of yourself, work on being a righteous servant for god and these things will be added unto you, god has that wife/husband for you, although there’s work to do on your end. Don’t get discouraged on when will it happen but rather embrace your time in singleness, it’s truly a beautiful thing! Use this as your motivation “ the man or woman you will become” you can be a 10 in the eyes of others but have the heart of a devil, you can be the ugliest to others but have the heart of an angel. It’s not about looks it’s about one’s heart, spirit & soul.
most people hop into a relationship not knowing what kind of demons that person has latched on to them, when intimacy is involved. Save yourself from a heartache and work on yourself be better for god, yourself and future wife/husband.
Salt and Light..
13You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its savor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men. 14You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.…
Galatians 5:13
For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.
Proverbs 16:9
The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps.
Love you guys protect your temple💗be set apart from the world.
The guy who delivers my mail is very cute. I would talk to him if he tried but he has never said anything. I take it as he has someone or he’s not interested.
Offer him a cold Gatorade or a snack
He’s a mailman who sees you everyday. You realize how risky it is for him to flirt and assume incorrectly? Just saying. You have to make it obvious you find him attractive
Tony, this was an extremely informative conversation. I love this. Thank you for sharing.
I take it as a compliment to my outward demeanor lol. Many men will waste your time and know when they have a naive hook. Many manipulative ppl out here and head cases.
