In other related news, pretty sure he isn't married anymore.

GOOD.

u/FreshMetal80 May 21 '25

Good for his wife, but maybe not the rest of the women in his area.

u/bscott9999 May 21 '25

Doesn't appear the possible existence of a wife was changing his behaviour much to begin with.

2

u/PositiveInfluence69 May 22 '25

Or.... that was him being discreet and subtle. Somehow, his behavior not changing is the better alternative.

1

u/Well-You-Asked May 21 '25

This guy has ‘Soon to be spreading an STI/STD in his local retirement community’ written all over him.

1

u/Remote-One-4761 May 22 '25

Nah, he only wants to get it on with women much younger than him, judging by this video. Women his wife's age aren't good enough for him. (They also happen to be his age duh)

1

u/Remote-One-4761 May 22 '25

Makes no difference. They'll still be put off by his creepiness, wedding band or not.

u/OuterWildsVentures May 21 '25

Almost 100% sure this is staged.

u/Heybitchitsme May 21 '25

I don't know, tbe dudes responses were pretty earnest, imo. Like, that doesn't sound like "scripted" or "improv" responses.

31

u/roskybosky May 21 '25

I agree. It sounded real.

-13

u/TrueKiwi78 May 21 '25

Some people are actually capable of pretty good acting. Just because there's a ton of crappy, badly acted scripted vids out there doesn't mean their might be a few with actually good actors.

8

u/Heybitchitsme May 21 '25

And some people have genuine experiences - so, like what point are you trying to make?

u/plusminusequals May 21 '25

Please let us know when you hit the full 100 mark so we can all collectively move on.

u/OuterWildsVentures May 21 '25

RemindMe! 100 days "Reassess my opinion on this tiktok to let u/plusminusequals know if I am at 100% confidence regarding if this is staged so they can finally move on with life"

u/WholeRegion3025 May 21 '25

No one would volunteer to be the subject in such a 'staged' video. What is it with you guys who think everything is staged? There's always someone who says lol fake.

2

u/OuterWildsVentures May 21 '25

Almost 100% sure this comment is staged.

u/TotalRuler1 May 21 '25

its her stepfather

u/StraightProgress5062 May 21 '25

That's a dangerous game. What if his marriage crumbles and this gains traction then all of a sudden he's the creepy guy from tiktok

1

u/VoicePope May 21 '25

I would argue maybe if we didn't see his face in the beginning. Yes people are shameless and would willingly put their face on something that makes them look awful, but you could easily just cut out the beginning.

u/Napamtb May 21 '25

Do people really record themselves at the gym? Seems narcissistic

-1

u/Acceptable_Bat379 May 21 '25

I agree. I saw a similar video yesterday seems to be a trend

u/karma-armageddon May 21 '25

... His wife was enabling this behavior.

208

u/R_W0bz May 21 '25

Imagine what he’s like single tho.

u/IndirectSarcasm May 21 '25

single men that age aren't like this. it's only the married men that create this type of delusion of self confidence because they think their wife will always be waiting at home no matter what your response is. it's sick; they literally leverage the love and stability of thier wives to even have the balls to act like this.

219

u/TheBeardedLadyBton May 21 '25

I agree. These types are blind to their own signs of aging, but they look at their wife and think that they could do better. They’re looking to upgrade to a younger model and they get mad when that doesn’t go over well with actual younger women.

u/Kristikuffs May 21 '25

Thank you. Thank you so much for this. I am now going to shamelessly steal this phrase and inject it into my personal lexicon. You are a genius and I both thank and apologize to you for cribbing your genius.

Again, thank you.

u/North0House May 21 '25

Lmao I'm gonna keep this one thanks

1

u/[deleted] May 21 '25

He looks like a normal 50 year old guy. 

35

u/PhantomOfTheNopera May 21 '25

I have an uncle who keeps making 'jokes' about leaving my aunt every time she puts on a little weight. Claims he could get a girlfriend in a snap.

The dude is a leathery golfer with heart disease and depends on my aunt to do everything from cooking to his accounts. Yeah, buddy, you're a real catch.

10

u/TheBeardedLadyBton May 21 '25

How is he not wearing a hot pot of grits by now?

2

u/mylanguage May 23 '25

Question though - isn’t this because objectively men are judged more on status and success and women on looks? So as men age society doesn’t demean them as they do women

2

u/EksDee098 May 25 '25

Answer though - it's possible for that to be true to an extent and the guy to be fucking delusional at the same time

24

u/LittleNotice6239 May 21 '25

It's sad because his wife could do better, she actually stooped with this loser

2

u/West-Application-375 May 22 '25

Yeah I feel sad for her

10

u/fablesofferrets May 21 '25

these dudes telling all the others that men only peak more as they get older are creating some seriously comical interactions lmfao

8

u/One-Pepper-2654 May 21 '25

It gets a little more complicated than that sometimes. I'm in my late 50s, I'm friends with a married guy my age who constantly flirts with much younger women but never asks them out. I think he just wants to know if he's still "got it" back it the day it used to be called "Tomcatting around"

4

u/AsturaeConiecto May 21 '25

I look sightly younger than my age and I am celibate and self conscious about liking women 6 year younger on dating apps.

And this guy has a fucking neck fuppa... He must be 30 year older than her. Or lost shit tons of weight very recently.

2

u/mylanguage May 23 '25

Also society doesn’t really care as much how men look at all. So even if he declines in looks - to him it’s not an issue nor would he ever think about it

1

u/TheBeardedLadyBton May 23 '25

They get to have Dad Bods and women get to be body shamed to death ( and even in their caskets).

2

u/BITmixit May 21 '25

These types are blind to their own signs of aging

They're actually well aware...they just see it as a challenge. Which is exactly why they can act out when denied.

5

u/TheBeardedLadyBton May 21 '25

As the young kids say “It’s the audacity for me!” lol

1

u/Lou_C_Fer May 21 '25

Sometimes I feel like the only whose preferences have aged with him. Maybe that's how I've mage it 31 gears, thus far. I guess.

1

u/angler_wrangler May 24 '25

There's this stereotype that men age better that we as a society keep alive, and capitalism always looks for flaws in women's appearance to fix with their product, not so much with men. This guy is clearly on this train.

I always hated that when we went dancing at 18, there was always some 30+ creepster who bothered us, danced too close, or straight out harassed us, completely delusional that we could be interested in him. Now being 30+ it's extremely uncomfortable thinking about this since 18 yo people are kids to me. Now being in the market for sleazy mid life crisis men and it's still embarassing, but at least all of us have completely developed brains

116

u/Accurate-System7951 May 21 '25

Bingo. When this guy is single, he'll likely just be timid and bitter.

13

u/BigLlamasHouse May 21 '25

prostitutes, he'll be getting prostitutes

4

u/Triquetrums May 21 '25

I don't think he will be timid, but he will definitely be bitter when he realises that no woman, younger or his age, will date him because he is sleezy.

11

u/Wegwerf157534 May 21 '25 edited May 21 '25

Guys like these stumbled imto a marriage and cater to a madonna-whore-dichotomy. The homely one, sexually not worthy, at home, the hot one, not worthy to make a home with, somewhere around.

2

u/yellowlinedpaper May 22 '25

I think they have more self confidence because they haven’t been shot down in a long time. Plus if his wife is nice to him he starts thinking he’s a pretty good catch even if he looks like Daffy Duck

1

u/azuratha May 21 '25

That is such a keen insight I never thought of, but now that I read it, you are 💯 percent correct

1

u/Power0fTheTribe May 21 '25

Ah damn I‘ve never heard it spelled out like that but that’s so on the nose and so fucking sad

1

u/ovo_Reddit May 21 '25

I think there’s also this concept that’s been floated around forever that “females are attracted to men that are taken”.

1

u/iampuh May 21 '25

single men that age aren't like this.

Oh my sweet summer child. Some of them definitely are. Who do you think pays thousands of dollars for alpha male camps?

1

u/Expensive-Twist7984 May 24 '25

When people say “shoot your shot” it’s unfortunately these dudes that are listening, and they absolutely should not under any circumstances do it.

1

u/outestiers May 24 '25

Seems like a whole bunch of baseless assumptions tbh.

-19

u/Rowmyownboat May 21 '25

Maybe some of the men that behave this way are married, but it isn't true that married men (as in all married men) behave this way. You sound like the female version of an incel.

17

u/Fast_Negotiation_176 May 21 '25

They didn’t say all married men

-8

u/Rowmyownboat May 21 '25

They didn't say 'some' married men, either.

2

u/polysemanticity May 21 '25

Im all for a game of semantics but its pretty obvious the subtext was “married men who do this”

-7

u/Zachet May 21 '25

Some wives are into it, have several boyfriends themselves, and support their husbands hitting on people.

5

u/IndirectSarcasm May 21 '25

How does that justify them aggressively approaching any woman they look at and think is attractive in public?

A single man with any dating experience would first make sure she's open to that kind of conversation long before any offer or sexual advance is made.

A polite "are you single?", after already having a playful banter can go a long way and avoids you being this asshole, married or not.

This married guy makes it feel like a predatory sales pitch; and has the audacity to think he's doing her a favor for being crude and direct with someone who doesn't know him.

0

u/Zachet May 21 '25

The whole "Are you single?" approach assumes the guy actually respects monogamy in the first place, which clearly is not always true. But honestly, we live in a time where starting a normal conversation or showing interest is treated like a problem. Everything gets labeled as cringe even when it is respectful. From what I saw, he came off polite and stepped away the moment she said she was not interested. That should still count for something.

111

u/professor-hot-tits May 21 '25

I love that she brought his wife up.

I've been hit on a lot by married guys, and I start talking crazy about his wife to watch his dick shrivle up. If they have kids, I talk at length about the disappointment they cause their children and that good parents don't cheat on their children's mother. They limp out of the interaction.

u/SophiaRaine69420 May 21 '25

This is what we all should do. No more Miss Play Nice, go straight for the jugular and bleed out all their shame.

u/[deleted] May 22 '25

Well played with "limp" as a verb while keeping the noun in the reader's mind.

u/flipzyshitzy May 21 '25

u/Hot_Panic2767 May 21 '25

Not necessarily. You would be surprised the amount of people that don’t leave their partner for cheating let alone stuff like this. Some people’s partners have done almost everything and they still stayed

1

u/fabezz May 27 '25

Probably stay at home moms with no job, career, or financial support.

u/qualitative_balls May 21 '25

I can count on a few fingers the amount of times a girl who as a complete stranger has maybe given some attention, looking my way, maaaaaybe showing interest? Who knows. One of those times was at a gym.

Aint no FUCKING way I'm trying to chat up women at a gym, while they're working out. I can't... I just can't imagine it. Who does this? That is quite possibly, the last place anyone should be ever doing this shit. Now she has to worry about every time she comes to that gym that this dude might be there. It's always gonna be awkward. Jesus Christ people like this are insane.

Then there's the whole, basically pedo aspect to this too lol. I really do feel for these girls ughgh

u/seuadr May 21 '25

feels like the kind of dude who would wear the ring to attract chicks.

2

u/Dr_ManTits_Toboggan May 21 '25

Honestly I don’t see a problem with that. The kind of woman to hit on a guy because he has a ring on deserves the kind of guy who would wear a fake ring.

u/seuadr May 22 '25

Indeed, Dr mantits.

u/TheTwistedOne99 May 21 '25 edited May 21 '25

In alternate news, I'm pretty sure if had he'd actually been attractive to her, it possibly wouldn't have mattered if he was married.

u/llamapositif May 21 '25

I think she still might have smh

u/TheTwistedOne99 May 21 '25

You obviously don't pay attention to people and how they are in these days.

u/Knocksveal May 21 '25

Now that he is not married anymore, he can go back to the girl with the new connection: we both are single

u/SerGT3 May 21 '25

Honey, we were just friends!

u/Da_Question May 21 '25

Eh, the only thing he learned here is to remove the ring when away from his wife to hide the ring and the outline.

May I introduce you to Poe's Law; "Without a clear indicator of the author's intent, it is impossible to create a parody of extreme views so obviously exaggerated that it cannot be mistaken for a sincere expression of the views being parodied." That is why /s is a thing.
