Dear women at work, no man owes you attention
One of my biggest problems with women at work recently has been their constant desire for attention from me. Sounds like a dream for a man from the outside, but in reality, it’s a nightmare.
I’ve been hired specifically to give women attention multiple times recently and as you won’t be surprised to hear, it didn’t end well. I was speaking to my mum about this as well recently, even she expects random dudes at her office to speak to her for no reason and she’s pretty anti-social and boring.
There is a clear lack of looking at things from the other person's POV or care about them at all. It’s all about what she wants, and I imagine that’s what all these women are like.
The thing about some women is that they rarely go speak to a guy if they want his attention, they’ll sit there and stew in anger. Then they have their dumb work friends backing them up as it makes their lives easier.
Being a man that women desire attention from gives you a different perspective on male-female dynamics, I’ll tell you that. You really see how much women desire validation from men.
I don’t mind this as it’s normal and men do the same thing, but it’s the tantrums that come afterwards that disturb me. I think some of it is cultural as well. People who are used to being called special and getting what they want are worse, and they come from certain backgrounds.
