Men who have a childish passion like playing video games , reading comic or collecting actionfigures . Feel real depress because they feel they have to chose between a relationship or their childish fantasy. Some good advice giving to me You don`t have to give up on what you love you just have to add to it . men ask why or how do them other guys get girls and are like that I see men with wives who play video games I see men with wives who collect actionfigures . well the truth is they did not get the girl base on being that . they got the girl base on doing manly things. No girl going to chose you base on just that​
" they might.... " But you still need to find a manly passion if you want things to be more for sure. Something that well help you became from boy to a man . Then you could be that man who play football really good. But secretly play video game and has actionfigures in his room. Doing something manly in your life help the women over look your down side a little better. But this is where I get confuse on this advice what is a manly hobby or a manly passion ?

1. Some hobbies may help you meet people, but none of them will change who you are.

2. It is a bad idea to make assumptions about what women find attractive. A few days ago I was telling a girl about how I was gradually making friends with some wild ducks, and she told me that was seriously hot. As in sexy. She was being serious.

Women. :idontknow:

Having a hobby for the sake of having a hobby is a bad idea. A hobby is supposed to be a thing you enjoy. It's how you choose to spend your free time. Why would you spend it on something you don't like?

Have the hobbies you enjoy. If you find groups who do that hobby together, you should join it. You're more likely to find people you can relate to and make some friends. And who knows, maybe you'll also meet a nice lady who's also interested in your hobby. You won't have to hide your hobby from her and you won't have to endure a hobby you dislike.

I do some blacksmithing and make knives.

Very manly, but it makes me dirty and let me stink.

Do something you like. The right girl won't mind.

(Advice from someone with some soft toys displayed in his bedroom. And books. Lots of books)

Having an indoor hobby make it hard for finding a friend . You should a lest also find outdoor hobby too. No you should not have to put with a hobby that you don`t like . But you should try and find a hobby that well help you be more interesting.

Define "manly passion".

Actually, women are attracted to men who are good with animals. That's why dating coaches give out advice such as "take your dog to the park and impress some girls."

You can also find women who have the same hobby as you for instance theirs online gaming...expos for gaming, and you mentioned action figures and comics etc.you might come across a lady while collecting and start up a conversation with her and then sparks fly.
It comes down to the individual if you have a shitty personality(scuse the french) then no girl is gonna want to go out with you regardless of your hobby. Myself I play a lot of sports, 4-5 days a week and I still play video games. It's wrong to assume that because it's an indoor hobby you feel depressed but I must say if I don't get out of the house regularly I find myself feeling depressed, but because I know that it does. My passion for sports far outweighs my anxiety and depression therefore I consciously leave knowing I'm gonna enjoy it.

Just some random thoughts so take or leave what you want :p collect knives/arrows/weapons of some kind... be knowledgeable in something like history... be able to save money... know some foreign language... eat manly foods like nuts, protein shakes, peanut butter, and steak... drink beer and know what your favorite kind is and what to pair it up with... be good with directions and driving... be tech savvy in some way... be able to cook at least a little... do something physically active like biking... follow some type of sports team... what genre of films do you like? action duh... :p

oh yeah forgot to say the gym ;)

Were there a case of romantic connection, I'd hope that person is interested in me because they find my personality pleasing and not too grating. Not because of what toys I own or how many manticores I suplex in a week.

Right here is an example of the different things women find attractive.

However, I was once told by a girl that it was "risky" admitting I knew little about cars. That has burned in my memory, but I know how silly it is, even if I do have to remind myself of that occasionally.

Animals are great wingmen. ::p: It's a good way to start a conversation and shows her that he can look after something.

Absolutely. Even if you and your girl share a similar hobby, or if she finds your hobby attractive, eventually it'll come down to personality.
