The Sense of Humor Scam

[Jonesy]

The naive will tell you that women value a man's sense of humor. This is not true. It may look like that from the outside, but in reality, women do not care about that. 

I have made many women laugh to the point where other people start looking. The same women have later ghosted me and overall rejected me. 

They enjoyed my company and clown skills but didn't see enough "value" in me to stick for longer. I wasn't perfectly "tuned" for their liking. 

It always comes down to bucks and looks. Everything else is just protein powder.

I don't agree. Your sense of humour makes you stand out from the crowd and I think it is enough to set you apart from loads of rich/good looking people who are simply boring. What people want most from a relationship is fun. Without that, money and looks mean nothing. 

You've lost your way recently Truthseeker. This site used to have a positive side to it. The hating had a point. You were saving people from the scams of the bodybuilding/fitness industry and doing it with your unique brand of humour. 

Now your message is "everything is terrible and there is no hope". Especially regarding women. What good does that do? Even if it was true and women really were that shallow (it isn't and they aren't) what good would depressing a load of people be with this constant message of despair?

I'm not saying be a complete lovey dovey naive optimist, but you have a lot of traits that people (including women) value. 

Focus on being light hearted and funny. That's when you're at your best imo.

Hard to tell. The situation you describe is quite general.

Some kind of nagging might work if your looks are okay, the situation is right (party or so, not a corporate environment), and the girl plays along (if she does she likes you anyway). Could be creepy though if you go too harsh here while ignoring her lack of interest, if you put too much effort into it (you trying to please her), or if your intentions become too obvious to her.

I'm definitely not an expert on women (who is) but that's what my own experience tells me.

Makes sense. I am not the most humorous person, but I once made fun of a girl (casual friend for a time being) sucking at volleyball while we played on a team. I thought she was good looking. The more I made fun of her the more she demanded me to do that cause she said "it would make her better at volleyball." She got angry when I forgot to boo her. It was interesting! She was from SE Europe. Never got inside her though! :/

Jonesy they should've cast you in the Shawshank Redemption as Andy Dufresne. Truthseeker would play the role as Ellis "Red" Redding. You two would be in the prison cafeteria having this conversation on "hope." Dude, what a cool forum this is. It's like we are all in prison. We are like "first hated these walls... then we got used to them, then we couldn't live without em."

Haha, I haven't seen that film in years.
