Actually, I thought that your post (#19) was spot on, and that is why I liked it.
Anyhow, I've basically given up on women, even though they're my favorite part of God's creation (in theory, at least, but, sad to say, not in personal practice).
It just seems like you're damned if you do and damned if you don't.
Whatever.
That said, there are a lot of horrible "men" (used loosely) out there, so I can understand, to a degree, why women are so leery.
However, that doesn't help the real men too much.
in fact, not at all.
I've taken so many other guys' bullets that I might as well just get a job as a target at a gun range.
My pity party is over.
Would anybody like a piece of leftover cake before I throw it out?
lol (even though it's really not funny, but sad).

Yeah, me too.
My final (?) piece of advice for everyone (myself included) is this:
Men, concentrate on becoming the type of man/potential husband that God wants you to be. If you want to be a husband, then you need to be willing to lay your life down for your wife as Christ laid his life down for the church.
Women, concentrate on becoming the type of woman/potential wife God wants you to be. If you want to become a wife, then you need to be willing to reverence your husband as the church reverences Christ.
Sad to say, my own personal experience has shown me time and time again that far too many men are focusing on what needs to be changed in the woman, and far too many women are focusing on what needs to be changed in the man.
Let's all take the beams out of our own eyes FIRST, and then see what happens.

I could be wrong... and I often am... but, I believe a woman's general criticism of men is something that has naturally evolved over thousands of years to weed out the "wimpy, whining, self-loathing, immature, lazy, mama's boys!"
All present company excluded of course...
Relationships are a lot like "religion"... You can bow and pray to a can of pork-n-beans five times a day but you'll never find God. The trick is to always be honest and unashamed until you find someone who agrees with you

Dunno id just say be consistent with whatever you do but don't spam or press females for attention in private messages it's cringy, if you're interesting enough characterwise they and people in general will come around. Being true to yourself is good advice because usually people spend so much time trying to mold themselves into being likeable that they shave bits of who they really are off and they miss opportunities of being themselves to others in effect cheating their own selves out of the experience. Being natural is easy but you have to be comfortable with yourself enough with yourself to pull it off infront of others though. Consistent character is what makes a person interesting to me personally even if hardly anyone likes that person, at least i can see that they are for real.
And now onto the title of favorite fruit, because i have a bit of a sweet tooth i would say mango.
