There is so much to dread / m4w / 27 / Manhattan
My friends tell me it is too soon or that the grass is growing tall beneath my feet. There is so much to dread. I’ve never traded flirtatious texts after midnight. What is the difference between “seeing,” “hanging out with,” and “dating” someone? I can’t even maintain eye contact with women walking on the street. I’m shy, I’m insecure, I fear rejection and the possibility my male gaze (I’ve taken one survey class on feminism in college) is offensive and an objectifying intrusion. I don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable with my advances, silent eyeballs or otherwise. I won’t let my eyes linger on a sheer shirt and black bra. I watch the eyes of other men; watch them turn around halfway up the block to look at an ass in short shorts. I’m satisfied smelling perfume as a woman passes.

Not having any success finding that person who you had a missed connection with on Craigslist? Well it’s no surprise. You’re not able to keyword search for any of the details about the encounter, the other person or even where it happened.
That’s where I T I G G Y is different. There you can search according to where the
encounter happened, what the other person looked like, and even anything distinguishing about them, such as their green handbag or their big white headphones.
If you want a better way of finding them that is free, fun and safe, check out I T I G G Y dot com.
What have you got to lose?

Oh no…
Nicely written - women love the gaze though. Don’t let them tell you any different.
