Sometimes, if you want to date someone, you’ve got to “shoot your shot,” as the saying goes. However, the distance and lack of accountability of things like text messages and DMs mean that some of the most unhinged folks out there are willing to just try anything, no matter how dumb.

We’ve gathered screenshots of some of the worst, cringiest and most clueless attempts at hitting on women some men have ever attempted. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote the most horrendous examples and be sure to share your own thoughts and stories in the comments down below.

Also, "I'm" needs an apostrophe, as does "'kay" (it is there, I promise), and there are missing commas/full stops (periods) as well.

    Threatening self-hárm is a form of psychological abúse. If someone you're dating does that to you, you are in an abusíve relationship. You deserve better than that, and you should really try to get out of that relationship. And if you yourself are threatening people with self-hárm, you should talk to your doctor to get a referral to a therapist, they can teach you how to deal with your emotions in a healthy way.

    I’m genuinely wondering what ‘s*******m’ is. But if it’s ‘süïcide’, agreed - I had a friend who used to make her ex come round constantly by threatening the same, and she’d complain to me that his new gf didn’t like this habit, as if my friend was the only one who wasn’t in the wrong. That’s how we gradually stopped being friends.

    So, apparently jumped at 02:57hrs and was in the hospital at 03:11hrs, that's 14 minutes for EMS to respond, assess, package and transport... either the hospital is really close to the bridge, or I suspect someone is not telling the truth...

    I’m absolutely not agreeing with him, but I don’t see the point of taking photos of yourself crying. Genuinely, what’s the point? I really don’t get it. Same with people taking videos where they’re crying, and posting them on social media. I think they just do it to get attention because people will sympathise with them. Again, not agreeing with the guy. Obviously he’s in the wrong here.

    There's a very specific kind of interaction that a great many women are all too familiar with: a guy approaches, flirts, and when she sends out signals of disinterest, either overt or subtle, he just flat-out refuses to notice. Instead of gracefully stepping back, he keeps pushing on, piling her up with groan-inducing remarks, unasked-for compliments, or persistence that quickly glides from mildly annoying to full-on awkward.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    The result is usually cringe-worthy, both for the woman who is rejected and for any onlookers to the embarrassment. So why do some men so completely misunderstand rejection, and why does it look so painfully awkward?

    Social conditioning is part of the reason. Men have been trained for decades that persistence is a good thing when it comes to charming women. Movies, TV shows, and even "how to date" books have a tendency to reinforce the idea that "if you stick it out long enough, she'll eventually agree." This myth makes some men believe that a woman's hesitation is just a challenge to be overcome, rather than a clear boundary to be respected.

    What's even the point of "and quite large breasts"? He's not even making a compliment like saying he likes her breasts or something, he's just stating a fact. And I'm pretty sure she already knows she has large breasts. It's like saying "Hey girl, you are 1.70m", what's the point?

    🤣 Oh boy. BP downvotes exist to hide comments from view. Why so many people were offended by my comment about male violence against women, I have no idea. Never mind, The central point is this (let's see how many snowflakes I trigger this time round): I've read that 90% of men are stronger than 90% of women. That's another way of saying that most women can't physically defend themselves against most men. But it's not térrorism when men attack women - it's just plain ordinary violence. Men attack men more than they attack women. 🤷 None of it's good. On the other hand, things are generally getting better on average.

    Both sides are equally bad...

    A second reason is ego. Rejection is painful, and to some men, it is painful like a blow to their ego. Instead of taking "no" for an answer, they try to save face by doubling back, cracking jokes, or playing dumb about the signals. The result, ironically, makes them seem even more desperate and cringeworthy. What could have been a moment of maturity, taking the lack of interest and moving on, becomes an act that screams insecurity.

    There's also the issue of reading between the lines. Some men literally struggle with reading between the lines, either because of poor social intuition or just desire masquerading as obstacles. If a woman is polite but direct, they'll misinterpret her being nice as a sign that she wants them to continue approaching rather than a signal that they need to back off. This miscommunication creates a dynamic where one believes they're being kind and the other thinks that it's an invite to continue approaching.

    ♫ Take me high and I'll sing, you make everything okay, okay okay...♫ (Nobody will get this reference but I just had to)

    The cringe factor is the product of this disconnect between what he tries to do and what actually occurs. When a man ignores obvious cues, his advances are no longer playful but awkward. The flattery is insincere, the jokes fall flat, and the assertiveness seems arrogant. The irony of the moment, for a bystander, is the way painfully clueless he seems, but for the woman, it's never funny. It's exhausting, infuriating, and sometimes even threatening.

    What is worse is that this type of behavior underestimates women altogether. It assumes they're being games or that their "no" isn't a real one. It removes their agency and treats them like puzzles to be solved rather than human beings who are very capable of knowing, and expressing, what they want. That lack of respect isn't just cringeworthy, it's disrespectful.

    The truth is that rejection is just a part of life, and the most attractive response is to accept it like a pro. A gentleman who takes a clue, gives a classy smile, and walks out makes a much better impression than a dude who clings for dear life to the instant in a desperate bid for validation. Ironically, confidence is demonstrated not by holding out in the face of rejection, but by the ability to take it in stride.

    In the end, men who are unable to take a hint are cringeworthy for the simple fact that they bring attention to a lack of self-awareness, respect, and confidence all at once. Not being able to let go isn't charming, it's being clingy. And while they may think persistence is complimentary, what women most want is someone who understands when to back down, honor boundaries, and move along without it getting awkward.

    I think it's actually quite a funny and interesting observation. Obviously racism is a huge serious problem, and astrology-based discrimination ("I don't date Libras, because they are selfish") is not a big deal, just stupid. But it's an interesting comparison, they're both about excluding people and making assumptions about people based on nonsense theories, thinking that a skin colour or zodiac sign tells you what kind of person someone is.

    I prefer to be called they/them too, and I would laugh my a*s off if someone called me schizophrenic because of that, lol.

    This made me smile ... I found it hilarious, and I would assume it was the person's humour until I've experienced otherwise if anyone said a thing like that lol

    They/them pronouns might confuse someone when they see it used for the first time. But did he live underground for those six years? I mean, how can you even read newspaper, watch tv or use internet without seeing any pronoun discussion ever? I would give him a slack if English isn't his first language, but he wrote complex words like terminology, agender and schizophrenic right so dunno...

    I heard "agender" in a North Jersey accent, meaning "agenda."

    Okay the schizophrenic thing is akward but I think this one isnt so bad. It sounds like he was simply confused by the terms.

    "Pipe" in French means à blôw-job. I guess that's not the meaning here?

    This one is quite funny. It's kinda like "I love true crime" and then realizing that you technically said you like people getting m******d and stuff, instead of liking podcasts/tv shows about it.

    You could’ve stopped an insulting the lips. Then everyone would’ve walked away only feeling mildly uncomfortable. But the dog? He should make sure to lock all of his doors tonight.

    The last line is a bit rude, could be phrased nicer. But other than that, there's nothing wrong with this one.
