Being a guy on this sub is interesting

One of the biggest things I've noticed is I feel like I can read the men much easier than the women, and I feel like most people on this sub are the opposite.

For example, any time a guy ends up not being interested in his fiance, I call it from a mile away (ex. Stephen, Tim, etc.) and it's always been this way in previous seasons.

But the women I can't read anywhere near as well. Everybody on this sub is obsessed with Taylor (I'm only on episode 10 so idk maybe she sucks in episode 11). When I first met her I had no opinion. It took me a while to realize how cool she is. Similarly for Hannah, the red flags weren't as immediately obvious to me (and I'm not like crushing on her or anything like that, I just was kinda neutral).

Maybe this isn't surprising at all to others, but I found it interesting.

Edit: for the curious, the things that tipped me off about Tim and Stephen in particular:

Tim - after their off camera fight where Alex put her hand over his mouth... His reaction, even though I don't know what she did to him, to me completely screamed that he was emotionally over it. He was also so intense, in an angry way, there's no way a guy would be acting like that if he was still into the woman. I think her borderline begging him made him feel wanted and he liked that and that's why he stuck around longer.

Stephen - when he said buying Monica flowers was a "concept"... My god. If a woman blatantly explains what small gesture would make her happy, and the man's first reaction is anything other than "okay" and clocking it for the appropriate time, he's not into her. That's just baseline behavior when you like somebody. Maybe if you're ADHD or only sorta into them, you forget. But to make excuses and practically argue about something as small as that, that's a person who is not interested. Hell I will buy flowers for ANYBODY that asks or could use them, it's such a small thing! Nah every word that came out of his mouth after that had me cracking up because it was absolute nonsense.

This sub has some God awful takes. No other show/anime/manga whatever has me coming into the sub to see reactions/discourse and just be blown away by how differently I see things compared to most other people. I think this sub is just bad at reading social cues or something
