My son has a crush visiting our home for a few days. In typical cringey mom mode, I made an off the cuff remark along the lines of "don't worry--dad and I will make ourselves scarce in case you want to make a move." He looked at me like I had two heads and said: "I would NEVER do that. What if she isn't interested in me? That would put her in a really uncomfortable position." I have never been happier about being called out by my kiddo.
Take heart--there are good men out there. The kids are alright.
EDIT to add: It's really shocking to me the lack of reading comprehension from male presenting redditors. The young woman is STAYING IN OUR HOUSE for 4 days with nowhere to go if she's not interested. Making a move (which really just meant confessing his feelings) would be inconsiderate AF and I really wish more men realized the position they put women in when they make their feelings clear. There is a very real power imbalance when someone is housing you--a move can be interpreted as "payment" or just plain old pressure. Do better buttholes.

Understandable. Any woman upon discovering that Carp imagines he might stand a chance would necessarily be forced to contemplate all the mistakes she's made in her life to this point. You can easily see why suicide might appear to be the better option than an evening listening to Carp mansplaining NMS and reading his twitter feed aloud to you at the restaurant.

The trick is to get over yourself and just not do it in as stupid a manner next time.
The point of bad experiences is to learn from them, not to be forever traumatized by them.
