If we evolved to want to partner up and reproduce, why does pursuing the opposite sex seem so awkward to a lot of us?

You'd think we would get a big hit of dopamine when approaching someone we're attracted to, instead of adrenaline that makes you wanna not do it or run away 😆

Also is it different for people who grew up with only a single parent?

I'm especially curious to know about men who grew up with a close relationship to their biological father

many guys in my generation didn't have one

I had an amazing stepdad, but we never talked about the more intimate stuff I imagine you might discuss with your dad, like how to approach women and other things that'd normalize that kind of thing in our minds and provide more confidence in approaching potential partners

Fuck all the deadbeat dads that ran out on their babies btw 🖕

Culture is outpacing evolution so there's a massive mismatch between what's considered societally tenable and what your brain thinks you should be doing.
