Vault: Guys Panel Part 2: Woman ask men dating questions

The Bert Show17mJune 17, 2026
AI-Generated Summary

The Burt Show's finale of Single Girl Boot Camp Week features a candid panel of single men tackling real dating dilemmas with unfiltered honesty. The conversation reveals a stark contrast between male and female expectations: men see post-date texting as unnecessary gamesmanship, while women crave closure after being ghosted. The panel agrees that playing 'the hunt'—dating multiple people early on—makes individuals more attractive, but warns that prolonged ambiguity can become emotionally exhausting. A major revelation comes when a married man advises single women to exit unfulfilling relationships immediately, emphasizing that Atlanta’s vast dating pool makes wasting time on 'not the one' a luxury no one can afford. The episode also tackles the taboo of virginity, with men admitting they feel pressured to marry if they lose a woman’s virginity, and critiques performative dating attire, suggesting that dressing provocatively often signals insecurity rather than confidence. The most controversial takeaway? Women who go to bars alone are not desperate—they're 'huntresses' ready to meet someone, and men see that as a signal of intent, not weakness.

Key Takeaways
1

After a good date, send one brief note acknowledging the time—then stop. Anything more is unnecessary and plays into gamesmanship.

2

Dating multiple people early on increases your attractiveness because it signals you're in the hunt, not desperate.

3

If a guy stops calling after three months, he's likely moved on—don’t wait for closure; assume it’s over.

4

Virginity is not a dealbreaker, but revealing it too early can trigger guilt and emotional attachment in men.

5

Women who go to bars alone are not desperate—they're intentional hunters, and men perceive them as ready to connect.

Well, it says that if you do wind up having sex with this person, first of all, you're going to feel guilty for stealing her virginity if you don't have intentions of carrying it through to the finale of getting married.

If I see some cougar with Bolt on sitting at the bar by herself, I'm like, oh, she's in it to win it, son.
Southside Steve17:08
You're going to eat sushi at some dive bar. I've heard this before also. Like when I first met him, I was dressing provocatively, right? I was showing everything. And then we started going out and then he was annoyed by the way I was dressing.
