My granddaughter was dating a really “nice” young man, I liked the guy but he seemed a little wimpy to me and I kept my mouth shut. She came to me one day for a serious talk and explained that she just couldn’t date him anymore because she wanted a “real” man.
Yup, people are naturally attracted to “real” men.
And it’s the best choice, IMO.
I think it was Napoleon Dynamite who said that girls only want guys with skills.
