Why does dating in 2019 suck so bad?

[Anonymous]

[EyeAmNiceGirl]

I can tell you why. The internet has caused it.

First, dating sites have given us the impression that there are millions of "hottie-level" people out there just waiting for their chance to meet us (me). We have trouble realizing that other people' online profile is a lot like our own, and they forget to mention even one imperfection. In real life, we quickly notice imperfections of other people, and even the slightest shortcoming will make us impatient and will soon send us looking for that perfect guy/girl whose profile we say last week. I mean, no way that guy's farts stink.

Second, and perhaps more importantly, the internet has moved us from "it takes a while" to "instant." In the old days (before our time, but not that long ago), if we wanted to know what breed of dog it was that we saw running though our back yard, we had to go find a dog book and then page through it until we found a match. Might mean a trip to the library. These days, we google it on the smart phone we carry in our pocket, choose "images," and have an answer in minutes. We order unique stuff from the internet, and it is on our porch the next day; no more waiting until the weekend, then driving to a big city and shopping all day just hoping to find what we want. When it comes to dating, we expect to go from "Hi, my name is Suzie, good to meet you," to "deep romantic connections" in a matter of hours, when it really takes months to develop those sorts of feelings, and we are too impatient to wait for months. . . . besides, there is this hot guy/gal who perfect profile. . . .

Then there is the sex thing. Believe it or not, 50 years ago, "good" girls didn't have sex unless they were married. OK, they probably did, but it was ONLY with the guy they truly thought they were going to get married to one day. First date sex, was unheard of, and a lot of girls wouldn't even kiss on the first date. If a girl had sex on the first date, she really was thought of as trash; and the guys who would go out with her (to get sex on the first date) weren't thought of in the best of light, either. We have cheapened sex. What was once thought of as an exclusive activity shared with that one special person has become routine and meaningless. Except sex is designed to bind us closer with the person we already have a deep emotional connection to.

Mix the above three things together, and well, that's why dating sucks so bad.

I wish i could give this a dozen upvotes. This comment is automatic MHO if you ask me.

[EyeAmNiceGirl]

@ChiTown33 Thanks.

[Jamie05rhs]

I agree with ChiTown!

[SueAnon84]

1. Women these days have a lot more competition for a man. Back then, there were only 6 BILLION people in the world/on the planet! Probably even less! Take half of that because they are women so that's 3 billion... maybe! Take another half of that since those are children leaving you with 1.5 billion! Thats still a lot BUT some of those 1.5 Billion live in a different country, are too old for you (a good chunk are probably baby boomers or older!) - so that's 750,000,000 ÷ 2 = 375,000,000 billion! Take out Generation X and Y which are probably already married with children! So divide that by another half? Take out the gays, the ones with mental issues, the ones in jail or who won't or can't provide well for a family, etc. and what do you really have honestly? !

2. Shallowness and instant gratification like I said before on here, run rampant.

3. Growing up in this society? Optional a lot of the times!

4. The morals suck! Sleeping around and having babies before marriage and hooking up is now considered the in thing!

#Single moms.

#Horny single moms!

#Sluts! - Promiscuous people that like to dip it... eeevvvveeeerrrryyywwhhheerrreee!!

[Asker]

I believe in marriage before having any child.

[SueAnon84]

Same, but that is why you have to find a man that feels the same way! That's the trick!

[Asker]

It’s hard... especially when the pickings are slim to none... mostly all the I have come across got kids. And I want a man that has no kids.

[SueAnon84]

Same! Them bitches and s o b s are VERY impatient when it comes to sex! and waiting for the right ones!

[Heiniken]

1. Your math makes no sense (thats okay though!)
2. Yes
3. Some of us are trying.
4. Marriage is not an attractive option for men these days because we get f*cked in divorce laws, when they become more fair you may find marriage rates rising.

[SueAnon84]

@Heiniken Au Contraire my math does make sense! I used a calculator! :) I just kept dviding by 2 starting from 6 bill...

I agreed with everything else.. :P

[Ogopogo]

Why would a man in his mid to late twenties have no kids?

[Asker]

There are some... and I am a female and I have no kids. And I prefer who ever I be with will not have any kids yet. I want my own child, and I would my first to be his first. And most single fathers either don’t want anymore kids... or he has too many baby mamas and drama.. I don’t want to be a part of that.

[SueAnon84]

@Ogopogo "Why would a man in his mid to late twenties have no kids?" I have a friend. He's 37 turning 38 and has no kids. My brother is 40 with no kids and no he's no dork! My friend is sort of on the "loser" side because he's got autism, but seriously commenter! This isn't the 1980s or even 1970s anymore! People go to college! People fear not affording their children! People don't marry their high school sweethearts of the bat don't you know!

[Mamamialetmego]

And add that women's hypergamous instinct that desires tall, masculine, attractive high status male you end up like 20 or 30% of male population. Rest of them are just losers or aren't seen as men. On the other hand there are a lot of women that are healthy and pretty so competition is really tough out there for women.

[SueAnon84]

@Mamamialetmego Hey I just thought of something... what about the competition for women? ! Wouldn't it be the same thing for you guys? ! Or are you telling me that there are more "healthy and pretty" women then there are "health and pretty" men? ! You have competition to make sure to get the healthy and pretty women over other men! You want to reproduce and or be with said woman right? ! :-}

[Mamamialetmego]

There are more healthy pretty women than attractive men. That's always has been the case. Men compete too of course but low value men compete way much more. High value men have it easy. If you go sites like Tinder or Ockupid only top 20% gets all the matches. Women are hypergamous. They only go unattractive males when they want to marry and seek commitment. But they don't desire them sexually. Women only desire top males

[SueAnon84]

@Mamamialetmego "They only go unattractive males when they want to marry and seek commitment. But they don't desire them sexually. Women only desire top males" A little generalized don't you think? I've seen ugly women date, marry and mate with ugly men! ... I work at a retail Customer Service job and I see this every single day I work! :) ... And I think you meant "attractive" not "unattractive". Hypergamy can happen with BOTH sexes so please don't generalize! Since feminizism came along (yes it has helped women in certain respects) they can now also be highly educated. But you're right in some aspects that men don't really "care" about your career (especially old fashioned men or traditional men) than about your ability to reproduce/give him desired children! Or at the "very least" awesome sex with a what you were saying, pretty or beautiful face!

[Mamamialetmego]

Ugly or average looking men only have one chance to be desirable sexually if they have status like money or some kind of fame. Yes women marry and even have kids with average dudes but they don't desire them much. Ask married men about their sex life haven't you heard millions of stuff like that? Women are eager to have sex with you if you have certain things like strong, good looking body, high masculine traits like confidence, courage and dominance. You need to have enough of those. If you don't have it you are just a resource for her. Some guys have mix of both but they are rare. Most married men are just resources for their wives and also give women things like affection, attention but they are not sexually desirable. Evolution made women like that. Just read this www.quora.com/Why-do-beautiful-girls-always-fall-for-bad-boys

[The6ix]

Dating apps to me seems all about an ego booster for girls and a forum where guys can judge and try to have sex with different girls. We live in such an inauthentic day and age, people today support things that are sinful and unjust. We live in a materialistic/superficial world where we care more about the popularity one has rather than the sincerity one has. All comes down to standards. If a woman is going to sit there and say - I want a man who's 6'4, muscular, can make me feel like a princess and this and that.

I'm sorry sweetheart but uh if men or women cannot control their temptations then that dude would most likely cheat. Dating today in 2019 does suck, through a guy's perspective, I don't understand if a girl who comes across a normal, cute or decent looking guy with a great persona says "hey can we go out for coffee" that may last 30-60 mins at most why reject the offer right away? Women are quick to judge as well, we sit here and go by 'first impressions' come on ladies, you're not perfect either, you've fucked up in life just like guys have. That's another thing, we are so damn judgmental with each other.

Again from a guys point of view, I'm not saying a woman can't have preferences, because women will, they are the ones who are courted over 90% of the time, not men. But if we live in an era where women want to live the lifestyle of a man and state she has "lady balls" and she wants to be an aggressive woman with male-type features as a manager or a boss or a CEO of a company. Well then, go out and ask a guy out. Which leads to my last point, many women have this "don't talk to me" look if a guy approaches her in a respectful manner. The annoying, rude guys who approach women, sure, they should be ignored or responded to in that way. But men and guys lack confidence today, not just on rejection but we are also afraid because some guys/men may assume if we approach a girl just by asking her number who's to say she's not bat shit crazy and yells out SEXUAL ASSAULT! A woman or a girl may read this and think "oh whatever we don't act that way!" But truth be told, I have heard stories from men and guys like this before. From a guys point of view, that's why dating sucks in 2019.

[Anonymous]

I’m in a happy relationship, but it has definitely taken a lot of work. I think with that being said, one if the things that is a problem with dating culture in 2019 is this idea that the perfect person will eventually walk into your life, you two will get along great from the beginning, sparks will fly, there will never be any conflict, and you won’t have to put in any effort to make it work. And if ONE of those things doesn’t happen, then that person isn’t for you, you can just dump or ghost them, and continue your search!

The other issue, I believe stems from social media. A new prospect is always only a click away. Women post selfies and get 100 likes. Men post a gym pic and the same happens. Both scenarios show how people who are in relationships still market themselves. People will disagree with me, and that’s fine, but when you post a picture simply to post a picture, you are putting yourself “back on the menu”, which is something MATURE people in COMMITTED relationships DONT DO.

I’ve probably been in the best shape of my life on and off throughout the course of my current relationships, and the idea of posting a gym picture doesn’t even entice me. Why? Because 1.) I’m confident in how I look and 2.) I think it would be blatantly disrespectful to my girlfriend. I’m essentially saying to her “your opinion is nice, but I need the approval of these other women too.”

[OlderAndWiser]

So dating sucks for YOU. It is a bit of an overgeneralization to say that it sucks for everyone.

[Pixel343]

Well gee, no one was expecting this answer.

[Pixel343]

Influencer huh?
We'll fuckin see about that.

[OlderAndWiser]

@Pixel343 Should I be worried?

[gothgirl997]

I didn't expect that answer either. Usually OlderandWiser gives good answers.. Don't know why so condescending today

[SarahsSummer]

@gothgirl997 I dont view his comment as condescending. He's just stating what I would've said. The askers comment IS an over-generalization.

[gothgirl997]

@SarahsSummer most of the comments disagree..

[OlderAndWiser]

@gothgirl997 @SarahsSummer There is a very important reason why I responded as I did. Complaining about "dating in 2019" is useless because it simply becomes an excuse for what is wrong in our personal life. "It's not anything that I'm doing. It's like that for everyone!" That is a dead end. And it really doesn't matter whether dating is generally bad for the rest of the planet; this lady wants HER dating life to be better. The only way to make that happen is to focus on what she is doing that may be contributing to whatever the problem is. Maybe she is looking on the wrong places, inadvertently staying away from the right places, projecting a bad impression, expecting too much too soon, etc. There are many potentially constructive areas she could examine, but that won't happen if she just throws her hands up in the air and says, "Oh, I give up! Dating sucks for everyone so I might as well just accept that it sucks."

[Pixel343]

You and sarah are both trying to farm votes so obviously she was gonna say the same thing. You're attacking the question because you don't actually have an answer.

[OlderAndWiser]

@Pixel343 Wrong. My answer is that dating does not suck in 2019.

[Pixel343]

Nevermind. Not in the mood

[OlderAndWiser]

@Pixel343 Okay.

[gothgirl997]

Hey guys, have you seen G@G's new format?

[OlderAndWiser]

@gothgirl997 Just noticed!

[gothgirl997]

What do you think of it?

[gothgirl997]

It's a bit weird..

[OlderAndWiser]

@gothgirl997 I haven't really played with it yet.

[SarahsSummer]

Dating in 2019 does not suck.

[Pixel343]

@SarahsSummer but if it did? why?

[SarahsSummer]

@Pixel343 I can't say why she's having bad luck at it as she hasn't explain her efforts or lack of. I try to live by the very simple motto, where there a will, there a way and you can accomplish anything you set your mind to. making a general statement or pointing at some abstract to blame for a lack of success will not get anyone anywhere.

[gothgirl997]

@SarahsSummer maybe OP just wants to vent and isn't asking for actual advice..

[SarahsSummer]

@gothgirl997 I think a good percentage of the "questions" asked here are just that, venting, but call me old fashioned, when I see a statement ending with a "?" I assume it's a question someone is looking for an answer to. If the "asker" doesn't want to engage further for help, so be it.

[lightbulb27]

I think it does suck as well, but maybe it's in the eye of the beholder. Not so much dating, but the whole process of finding, filtering out. it should be easier to pair bond.

[Anonymous]

I don’t think dating in 2019 is terrible, I just think that people have bigger pools of options to choose from. Before the rise of internet and technology people generally dated people who lived in the same area as them and generally had similar lifestyles. Though their dating pool was smaller, they typically had the same values, goals, and intentions as their potential dates. Now in 2019 we have access to meeting people all over the world. This means that we can interact with people that we never would’ve interact with before. Because the dating pool is so large now and you can meet people from all walks of life, then there’s a high chance you guys will have very different values, goals, and intentions. You’ve got to sort through all those people and find someone who is compatible with you. That’s what dating is. It’s just harder now because there’s more people to sort through. That’s why I only date people that I feel immediately attracted to. I don’t want to waste my time gambling on a romantic relationship with a people who don’t immediately peak my interest. Figure out what your ideal guy is, and only date that type of guy.

[FreshOutaIdeas]

As fucked up as the dating scene is for all the reasons other posters have already outlined, I think the biggest problem of all is a lack of masculinity.

Males today (I won't use the term men) are completely disarmed of all masculine virtues that attracts women - the good bad and ugly ones all the same.

Women who lie, cheat and steal don't get off the hook mind, but if we actually had a society of men with any backbones anymore, the bad women wouldn't get away with half the shit they do these days. Equally the more worthy women might actually have men to be attracted to in the first place.

It's just pure degeneracy.

[Truthatanycost]

Too many men put up with shit due to a scarcity mindset, and extreme thirst. I've been attacked by other men for holding women accountable, and for not putting up with their shit.

I've seen stories where guys say ''my girlfriend was rude, cheated, or flaked... and she's crazy... how do I get her interested again''. They are afraid to simply walk away.

I also knew this girl at a job that talked about how she would always shout, scream and physically scratch up her bfs face, arms, neck... they have been together for 8 years now... although she's propositioned me enough times already.

[FreshOutaIdeas]

@Truthatanycost
"Although she's propositioned me enough times already..."

Lol, I know that pain, friend. I done a take about an experience I had, which really solidified the things I knew already. Ended up having quite a cool discussion with a guy and we established just that; that by and large it is men's faults for not holding women accountable for their actions. And that not only impedes upon masculine authority, but dismantles a woman's moral compass.

If you like, have a read and a chuckle over this haha -

[Truthatanycost]

I read it. Freaking hilarious and very visual. I could see everything, the bar, the sweat, the beta rage and I could smell the pheromones hahah. This is why I always talk about how important mastering self control is. particularly as a man!

Some funny comments in that take as well. What a riot.

[FreshOutaIdeas]

@Truthatanycost
Yes exactly!! Self control is a MUST these days. I just got propositioned by a woman a couple nights ago who kept giving me the feminist mantra... Nothing more attention seeking ofc, and the fact I could see right through this, made her more attracted to me... Did I bite the bullet just because? Lol no... I've got my standards 👍

[Anonymous]

I'm so confused about so many things dating-wise that I've just forgotten about it for awhile and am focusing on other aspects of my life. If I find someone I'd like to date, great, but if not, I'm not really putting myself out there or looking at the moment. It's kind of an "if it happens, it happens" thing.

As far as the quote in the picture, any man I have to prove that I'm worth being treated with common decency is a no go for me. If I get blatantly ignored, I'm moving on. I do not chase men and I don't play games. The only person I need to prove my worth to is myself. If he can't see it, that's his problem, but I refuse to chase or try to prove myself to anyone who won't even give me the time of day.

[NikosBlackwood]

Dating sucks in 2019 because people suck in 2019. We as a society have been lowering our standards of dress, conduct, and yes- dating. People push what the limits of what they can get away with, which is why we have cheating, emotional abuse, and manipulation.
Judging by the fact that you posted this, your dating luck isn't being good to you right now. A tip from me is that you need to go on a few dates with an interest, making sure to read their every move to see if they're actually worth it.

Good luck :)

[demonics]

Feminism. You've destroyed your own value so much to the point where we don't have to try and can't be bothered anymore.

there's a million of these chicks in my town and surrounding areas

Why buy the cow when the milk is waiting at your doorstep everyday, figuratively speaking. Its a no brainer for men to take full advantage of this new found freedom women have. So don't expect dude to call you, don't expect to be treated 'like a lady' don't expect anything above and beyond what a man would do for another man because this is what you wanted *Equality*

Feminist of yesteryear gives it to you straight.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69rgLvitaYM

[Asker]

I am not a feminist. Why assume that every woman is a feminist

[demonics]

You: Why does dating in 2019 suck so bad?
Me: Feminism
You: I am not a feminist. Why assume that every woman is a feminist

[TheFlak38]

another entitled woman having it all before her and still being unhappy. You women have literally the sexual marketplace rigged in your favor and you still complain making up fairy tales. Who wants to prove to whom when it comes to dating? The only time you try to prove something to a man is when you want to invade a male dominated space, scream SEXISM and PATRIARCHY at everyone's face and then compete with men in business to show them what a cute man you are.
No woman EVER needs to prove to a man anything with a call or a text message. It's men who do all the chasing today and it's women who friendzone these men. If you want the 1% of rich men who are at the top of the dating pyramid and you have no chance getting them because all you have to offer in return is a used up vagina and another man's child then that's your problem. If dating sucks in 2019 then that's because of women and their lack of self awareness.

[Gillyjollywolly]

Because people get called crazy or too emotional when they show feelings and when they don’t show feelings they’re labeled as uninterested. Honestly, I just bought myself a game boy and all the games from my childhood I never beat and I’m about to focus on beating those games cause if I’m gonna play games, I might as well have them be ones that’ll give me good memories and make me happy!

[R_Cakes91]

Dude, it’s because of all these online dating apps. People are so picky now with just a picture instead of meeting someone in person, they are judging by looks. It sucks because it seems as though dating has all gone online now and there is less genuine interaction.

[Darkistoolight__]

I agree 100%

[Jamie05rhs]

And the profiles were supposed to let you get to know a person better...

[R_Cakes91]

Haha people don’t even ready my profile so I just say “hi I’m (name), and I like bears.”

[Jamie05rhs]

That's sad. Tbh, I used to read people's profiles all the time, but even I fell prey to the "easy method" once OKCupid adopted the swipe system. I think that was probably the worst change they ever made.

[FriedPickles1218]

To me it seems like no one makes an effort to meet new people or talk to anyone anymore unless your already in a social group.

I just started school a few weeks ago and let me tell you, everyone seems to just do their own thing. I don't know, it just seems like no one really gives a carp about you unless they have something to gain from you.

So yeah, with the way the world is today, it's definetly not easy. Not just getting a boyfriend or girlfriend either. Just even making friends is hard.

This is just my observation but at the end of the day I remain an optimist. I don't do the online thing either. I don't believe in that anymore and think it's garbage.

I want to meet a real person and have things happen organically from now on I'm done with this 21st century bullsheeeet.
lmao

[little_bird1]

And that shit is getting worse by day. I think media should stop making romantic comedy movies based on this, and start making crime documentaries, because its a really messed-up issue that could end mankind altogether.

[Browneye57]

It has always been a test - the entire purpose of dating. So buck it up little pony.
The more things change the more they stay the same. You wouldn't marry or hop in the sack with ANYONE without some dating time, right? It's your opportunity to discern, to judge their worthiness.

[FreshOutaIdeas]

It's what I keep trying to tell others in my generation. I'm always the first to talk about the dysfunctionality of modern life - in this case dating - but as I interpret from your words; if you have no self worth yourself then don't expect the marriage material to come to you.

[lovedejj_xo]

Take this advice.

[Browneye57]

@lovedejj_xo Asker needs to set out in her mind at least, even better to be able to articulate, what she brings of high-value to a relationship. And no, just showing up with your golden-vagina doesn't suffice. Cuz a high-value man will expect it.

Women today, generally, and for some time, have never bothered to even make an assessment of what they offer, what they'll DO for their man, nothing about him. It is ALWAYS about herself, her standards, her expectations, her requirements, that are at the forefront. It's so short-sighted it stifles her progress and opportunities.

I did a 'take on dating profiles that hits on a lot of this. The whole 'don't even bother' meme is just such a giant fail.

[Pixel343]

Giant fail? Have you tried to charm a girl in my age group, this year?
I should've married the girlfriend when I was 19.

[Browneye57]

@Pixel343 - So much whining... so little time.
Another little pony that needs to buck it up.
You can either CHOOSE to be a winner, or a loser. It's completely up to you.

[Asker]

I did not write the quote

[Browneye57]

And that changes what exactly?

[lovedejj_xo]

@Browneye57 I agree. Women need to do better as well.

[Browneye57]

@lovedejj_xo - It's called solipsism. You can google it. It's a survival trait for her and her offspring. Unfortunately it manifests itself in complete self-absorption. We call them 'navel-gasers'. For most women, I'm not saying ALL, their ENTIRE focus is on themselves, how things affect them, their feelings, their realm. They are unable to self assess, there is no objectivity. So when it comes to attracting a viable mate, they've never considered the prospect and what they offer - it solely from their own perspective, how and what it brings and does for THEM.

Men love idealistically.
Women love opportunistically.
Women are all in as long as it suits them, their needs and desires, and makes them happy. Just look for the word tracks - "I just wasn't hhhaaaappppyyyy". Or 'I love him, I'm just not IN love with him'. Or 'he just doesn't GET me.' The entire focus is on self. This isn't to say it's good or bad, it just is.

75% of divorces are initiated by women - this is the proof. They much more readily give up and seek to get out. Men will tend to stay and stay, just hoping things will get better. This isn't good or bad either, it just is.

[Anonymous]

Women are hypergamous and only date in the top 10% and women are being told to be sTrOnG INdEpEnDeNt wOmAn and want progressivism yet When it comes to dating they still want traditional ways very hypocritical here are two articles about it

More like, dating in 2019 feels like trying to "prove" to a woman that you're not a 'creep' because you approached her but she doesn't know you, that you're worth her talking to you long enough to ask her number, that you're worth giving her number to, that you're worth a phone call, or a text reply, or a date, and that you're deserving of being treated like a person who has feelings instead of a disposable stepping stone that she uses to get to a better guy.

[Anonymous]

Who would have ever imagined that in 2019 that we are living in the most EQUAL times ever between the sexes and this has caused them to seperate? Makes you think doesn't it.

Differences attract and we destroyed family and love because we wanted to be like men. Feminism didn't liberate me, it took away my femininity.

[Anonymous]

It's the instant gratification society we live in now-a-days. If you go back 150 years. People didn't have cars thwy certaunly didn't have the internet. Point is your average person never went 50 miles from where they were born. Which means if you were looking for someone to spend your life with you were relegated to those 50 miles. Life consisted of trying to survive. Not how many likes you got on facebook or IG. Few people are looking for something lasting today. Just something that gives them "starus" regardless of what they claim. People lie, SHOCKER!

[Asker]

I want something lasting. And I don’t have a facebook anymore... I can careless about a status. And no one knows how to date anymore

[Opinion Owner]

Ok, but you're only 50% of the equation. If he doesn't feel the same way you're soomed to fail. Also you can't tell me after failure after failure that you don't get to a point where you don't give your absolute best anymore. Well if that's evident to him then you come off as someone who's just playing around as well.

[Asker]

Nope I don’t play around. I just don’t like wasting my time.

[Opinion Owner]

Nobody likes wasting their time. And i said " come off as playing around" not playing around. Just like you might write a guy off over a feeling you got about him. A guy night write you off for the same reason.

[constantine15]

Internet dating has caused a lot of it. It has given women a huge boost in possible partners, thus giving them the option to be MUCH more picky as they get TONS of messages compared to guys.

Women simply look at your picture and stats and decide whether or not you fit her requirements... many of those requirements being petty, such as height.

People aren’t actually meeting and conversing, they are messaging or texting, which can be completely taken the wrong way and misunderstood and it’s cutting out the possibility of real chemistry.

[RobertToast1828]

"2016 was the worst year ever" -- Anybody who complains about not getting a text message back lacks perspective. If somebody doesn't immediately respond to a text, maybe they're busy. If the choose not to respond at all, it hurts, but I'm sure you'd find other people who can help fill the void (of course, relatives are a little different, but I digress). It isn't like the people you're talking about live the worst lives out there. It's like saying people should be terrified of the Alabama anti-abortion laws. Get a grip!

To me this comes across as "Dating sucks because men don't act exactly like I expect them to." I'm missing a lot of context so maybe I'm wrong but if there is even a hint of reality in there then that's why dating sucks for the person that wrote that.

Good question... I don't know... maybe because... so many spoiled brats raised without father figures, in a social mess propagated by low quality music and even worse TV programming, without much training and with the absence of social structure induced in the past via religion... now taken over by society's decayed thinking?

or maybe were all worn out?

I disagree with that dumb feminist quote, but here are my reasons.

Hookup culture growing.
Online dating.
Feminism leading to MGTOW.
The media.
People becoming more shallow.
People becoming more materialistic.
Loss of tradition.
Marriages are dying.
Commitement is barely there anymore.
Sex is so easy to get.
Love is so easy to get.
All relationships can be easily left, disposable.
Date, sex, dump, repeat in the name of "finding yourself".
The dumbening down of society.

Love is not easy to get. Are you crazy?

And I like the quote.

@Jamie05hrs Fake love that is, my bad

Okay. I'm with you on that, I guess.
