(Continuations of my last post)
Then if you manage to snag a female friend, that can lead you to the dreaded obsessive one sided relationship or the friendzone because you are the very few if ONLY real interaction they had on a personal level (being open about feelings, sharing interests and maybe some psuedo sexual stuff). Honestly for the demographic of men in this particular situation its inevitable they dont have a ton of experience navigating these waters emotionally and it can lead to alot of bad things. In this case experiance is directly linked to maturity. That being said I would give them a pass in regards to this and explain it to them. They will learn or they wont. Dont endanger yourself but speak to them about how to emotionally navigate it. If you dont know how to educate them about it, point them to someone that can, usually a good Male role model you know.
Ultimately the lack of IRL social experience carries over into the game. IRL dynamics of dating are important to everyone because some forget there flesh sacks on the other side not just a robot. Dawn of the internet and social media and dating website and *threads* only made this worse. Unfortunately people who dont have much IRL experience tend to look towards stereotype methods without understanding the nuances that make it work. I mean I could go on forever about how people misinterpret confidence etc etc. Anyways rant over.
