Have People Become Too "Nitpicky" When It Comes To Dating Or Finding A Partner?

Question

btbc92 · Accepted Answer

Not nitpicky. Just people who have no idea how to date, have a partner, and keep a partner. A lot of people have standards that a good amount don't even do for themselves or even bother to meet. I had people call me picky, but I can afford it. I meet my standards or at least work extremely hard towards them and when I meet them, I feel highly accomplished. The issue that I see is is that people no longer want to put in the work! So many people disqualify themselves and do things that make them disqualifiable.

I don't agree with premarital sex, yet the majority have done so and put themselves in sexual ruts in every aspect of the relationship. The type of relationship they want, they can't achieve it because they already did the wrong things and they don't want to change from it.

Do others have an outlandish physical requirement that really makes me wonder why do they even bother? They think picking a person is like picking a car based on what they see. Yet they don't even respect their own "Cars" as they don't people. They look at the specs, etc, but don't want to invest.

When it comes to dating, looking at flaws is essential. It does affect the quality of relationships you want. However, I say the issue is the intent behind them. I just dealt with a heated discussion with a guy who is angry I told him the truth. If your sleeping with people who are already taken and cheated on their partners for you, you don't want to date them and had partners before and talk about how you were happy, how then are you not in relationships now? There is much hypocrisy with people.

The others, talking about what a woman needs to provide, yet the same question is again, why would any woman in their right mind want a guy who behaves how they do. To DEMAND a woman is this way or that way, yet isn't so steller themselves?

The truth is we are called as human beings to be perfect, not that we aren't, because we're not, but to strive for it for God. And people have forgotten that. The source of negative nitpicking is disappointment and they want what they want out of selfish want. Not nitpick in a way of finding somebody who is a suitable match for you. I have seen men especially who had so MUCH POTENTIAL and they slept around, doing things I don't agree with, and shamed me for my personal choices. They say they want "love", yet do things that prevented them from doing so.

So they didn't become too nitpicky, they just became more selfish and inhuman. Morals and values have gone out the door now. Nowadays you have to be EXTRA careful. People are sleeping around even in relationships, or what I'm now hearing this freak fest mess down in Florida, and people making porn vids online. This is sickening. Unlike the 1500s to late '50s, is there ever such thing as "dating" and a "partner" anymore? Sounds like the future is very bleak. And I am glad I never dated at all. No point.

I think that our society has forgotten the definition of what love is supposed to be. In our society, beauty, money and status is becoming our definition of falling in love. When you're looking for a date , its always approaching the hottest girls at the bar scene. Or the falling in love means the second your heart melted when you lay eyes on the rich handsome young guy across the room. People seem to have forgotten that falling in love really means thoroughly enjoying someone's else's company, not some superficial attraction such as money, beauty or status. Money and beauty can definitely get you infatuated. But it won't make you fall in love.

When you marry, you marry the person, not the person with makeup.

We have delusions of finding our "soulmate" and hold extremely high expectations of marriage. Men think that their partners should be fit every aspect of what they are seeking in a woman such as the right body, right face, right personality, right character, needs to be blah blah blah... There isn't someone 100% so perfect. Just because she's not as pretty as you expected, it doesn't mean that you can't fall in love with her.

Overall, i think most people tend to become less nitpicky as they get older, when they begin to realize that their time is running out and their dating pool gradually growing slimmer and slimmer. But shallow young people tend to become shallow old people. And frequently shallow folks tend to stay unmarried until older age.

Im out of this poll but I'm share my thoughts on this.

1. Everything this days is about perfection which 99% of the people out there can't even support or have evidence that they are that perfect.

2. The pictures you have on those said dating apps are so fake we can all see trough it. I can't remember thr last time I've seen a picture without filters. And you expect to be treated different? Nope that's not how it works.

3. The things people expect from the opposite gender is way overboard. How about settle for something normal and true. Then a lie which is not going to last.

4. Gym is overrated this days. It's about being healthy not about a way of life or something that is required. It's each person own choice if he wants to go to the gym or use it.

5. Get to know that person first! Each of you out there have missed a good match because you want to much from them and you can't even offer that much.

6. To perfect to be true is a huge problem out there. That was my biggest issue out there in dating. I was so focused on my job, life and learning new stuff to advance in them.
That I've stumbled on a real problem. I've become unapproachable.
Worst thing ever. Sure I've had ton of people in my life but no one dared to approach me.
Was a lonely experience and it got me in dark places. I was getting frustrated with it and angry that people are scared to approach me. Yet i decided before deleting my profile and just move on with my job.
That i should give it one last chance and there it was hope I've meet my wife she was quite the opposite of me.
I was a successful businessman, i had everything i was going to the gym all that.

And she was nice and cute but not an gym addict like me. A bit overweight but that didn't matter because she made me laugh for the first time in years. And as much as we were different we shared so much in common.

So I've decided to give her a chance as she gave me a chance too. And you know what it was worth it. We are married we have a kid. She goes from time to time to the gym as i do share her hobbies.

All it matters is respect for each other and a peaceful life. With lot's of talking and growth.

So all it took was for me to remove all those standards i had and just go for the unexpected.

And asking to much is just to much. How about asking for a little and then get everything you wished for in life.

We are all so different yet at times the same.

And yes people are to picky when it comes to dating.

As my wife said you were to much to chew on but i dared to dream.

ShadezMcgee · Accepted Answer

I believe so. @olderandwiser put it pretty well, but I will add my own piece too. Having standards and wanting a partner ideal to you is fine, but when the standards you are searching for are very high or ones you don't even hold or match yourself, you will struggle and fail. I think the basic standards for most guys is that a woman looks attractive to them (subjective of course), supportive and fun to be around, not harping on them or getting in their faces about every small thing and having a good personality. Standard 4 right there.  Thing is, people are all about instant gratification a dopamine hits which we are constantly exposed to with phones and social media. Rather than working out conflict or discussing issues that come with a relationship, people jump ship immediately to find someone else. People would rather avoid conflict by finding the next best person they are compatible with than working and growing. With dating being a lot harder these days than it was for our parents growing up, it is harder to find lasting relationships. I got lucky with my girlfriend when we met online, but let's use that as the example with dating to go with dating apps. The majority of the time, it is attractive guys that will be chosen because you are not only competing against each other on a physical appearance level, but a competitive level in terms of lifestyle and social standing. Men who are well off and look good with good friend and connections will be in the crosshairs of most women whereas an average joe with an okay job will get a hit here and there, but have to really be good at game to keep a woman interested. Saying one wrong thing or something that turns her odd, you get cast aside quick. Women have it easier despite appearances and career because there are more men using these apps than women. Women could get dozens of suitors within minutes and may not even have a profile filled out or a photo. They get their picks of the guys that catch their eyes and stand out. Not being jaded or saying it's wrong by any means, but trying to cast light at truth. TL;DR nitpicks are present in both genders were, but there are certain factors that come into it, namely overestimation of what people believe they deserve and lack of commitment through relationships and growth through conflict and disagreements that come up.

coachTanthony · Answer

------------------I think the ones who are super picky have no real intention in finding someone. You don't have to settle, you can have standards but you won't ever be happy if you always find something wrong with someone.

We all have flaws. Your flaws though are perfect for the heart that is meant for you.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

Young people expect that a relationship will be like a day in the park every day. At the first sign of trouble, they assume that the relationship is a bad match and they need to break up. What an unrealistic expectation!

Conflict in inevitable in relationships because no couple is "perfectly" matched. In a good relationship, couples discuss the conflict and look for ways to resolve the conflict rather than breaking up.

jennifer_bloom · Answer

I look for guys who are tolerant and don’t operate by binary rules - like I would not want my future husband to divorce me if I drool in my sleep or if I get some illness and smell for a month or or if I develop poor coordination and am messy when I eat. My parents are both superficial and I can’t talk to them for more than 2 minutes without being criticized in some way. I want a guy who is able to tolerate imperfection in people.

Qdbrown · Answer

I think for many women, smartphones, social media and online dating has definitely artificially inflated their standards, especially for the younger generations.

If a woman gets hundreds of likes, swipes, she assumes she can a land a better guy. If she goes out and in her mind dates, but is played by guys out of her league, she feels that she has settle to find a serious boyfriend. That's not a good place to be. Always concerned that she didn't hold out for the best guy, that pretty much doesn't exist. Like great looks, great personality, great status, resources, tall, strong and well-mannered with a full head of hair. We are talking less than 2% of the total male population.

The part that is disconcerting is that even average to less than average girls grade themselves way too high. They too are searching from a massive online pool, and many guys give them some attention, and they're hooked. What makes these odd is that these girls will jump into bed very quickly being very competitive to win the guy and have very high notch counts. For average guys, this sort of girl is not one you want to take home to mama.

And what it's doing to the guys is horrible. Many are dropping out of the dating market. Most average guys don't stand a chance for even a date. It's not uncommon to find men who are still virgins in their 20's and 30's. Not a few, but a lot. The vast amount of guys have so little to show, and often want to settle quickly if desperate, and this is never positive long-term. It's setting up for a lot of hurt feelings, anger and divorce.

And marriages and families are plummeting. There are armies of single mothers and unhappy guys. With the birthrate falling, government will try to incentivize births, but between the younger generations believing that we need to go child-free and the expense of multiple kids, in reality government needs to cut all credits, social programs and essentially force people to have a reason to be together.

Right now, there is not. Just excuses and a Disney ending.

Finchie40 · Answer

Nowadays absolutely, most people are brainwashed by social media and the variety of people , so most people have strict preferences on what they are looking for , it’s a sad world we live in and I feel social media was a big part of destroying it , if you notice people aren’t as content anymore more people are selfish and only want what’s best for them , constantly thinking grass is greener on the other side , comparing their lives with others , back then we didn’t know what was going on with other people’s lives Cuz we didn’t have smartphones by our hips at all times and social apps like Facebook or Instagram etc. I think MySpace was the first one to start it all to be honest , I asked my parents how their marriage lasted so long and my Dad said Cuz we didn't play on smartphones , which I agree with him , If people actually put their phones down and looked at the world around them they will realize social media is the biggest joke their is and that it is a money maker and false reality , I still play on my smartphone now but little by little I been removing myself from it and not allowing it to take over my life , if I get into a relationship again , I am deleting all of it and focusing on my partner not giving a shit what other people that don’t matter are doing

razelove · Answer

I feel like they always have been, or at least those feelings have been there, but lack of options, especially an infinite line of more options if you exhaust your current ones, made them smarter and keep their mouths shut about things that would drive off potential mates, as well as (mostly) actions that would do the same.

The enormous amount of options that are available for dating, long term, making babies or what have you over the past couple decades I think are making people not choose anything, because there will always be more choices. Anyone who runs a restaurant will tell you to streamline those choices, or lose customers. In this case the restaurants name would be marriage and reproduction.

Women complain about men ghosting them and fuck-bois, while men complain about hypergamy and gold-diggers. Meanwhile neither changes their behavior for the better, but if anything acts more towards the stereotypes out of spite. They grow older and get more salty, more entrenched in their beliefs, until the 20's are over.

Then you have men and women in their 30's now positively desperate for a relationship, who have 0 meaningful relationships in the past spouting off nonsense which is pretty much identical. Men talking about how they'll get rich so they won't need women, but paradoxically will have all the women. Women talking about how it's fine, really, they don't need a man, they're going to have a kid on their own, as they planned the whole time. I mean, I guess the women could immaculately conceive, but it's another paradox as they will need a man for the sperm if they want that baby.

I don't get why those particular attitudes got picked up, but I do firmly believe that it is the result of having too many choices, or rather the illusion of infinite choices.

zeitgeist057 · Answer

People have become very independent. People have always been selfish (myself included, I think it's human nature) and today's culture/technology allows us to rely less and less on other human beings for our needs. This has led to isolation/alienation and people are not as good at interacting with others anymore. So it leads to more and more isolation.

Everyone knows what the issue is, from kids to grandparents: phones. Everyone looks at their phone and ignores everyone around them. I have been on the cusp of this happening and watched as people slowly turned away from each other and into their phones. But no one is doing anything about it. I tried for a while to keep connecting with people, but eventually I started looking at my phone as well.

We still interact in places like this on the internet, chats, apps like Tinder, Bumble, WhatsApp, FaceTime, and social media. It's not like we don't talk to coworkers, fellow students and community members. But actual, intimate, deep and meaningful relationships are few. I feel very blessed with the interactions and connections I have.

I actually had a conversation thread on another question about people judging by looks and the girl I was talking to was so incredulous I had deep connections with other people who actually give a shit about me that she accused me of lying about my life. Her perspective is not unique, I work with several people who have disclosed that they have no true friends and I have met several other people who I found out they feel 100% alone in this world, including relationships they have/had with family members and people they went to school with or were childhood friends with. It's very scary.

Dragonpurple · Answer

I can't say in general, but as we move from relationship to relationship there are things we will never accept. Try a divorce for sure and you won't put up with any of that crap that next time, which is why first marriages are the most likely to succeed. Additional ones rarely do, thus they drive up the divorce rate... when 2nd, 3rd and 4th marriages have such high failure rates.

Yet sometimes even basic stuff, like having a job and being responsible seems like your being too picky anymore.

The more someone puts up 'requirements' the more they don't really want a relationship.

Think those people who have been married forever had it easy? My grandparents got married at 15 and 16 years old and were married for nearly 70 years. My parents are coming up on 60 years.

Those that marry younger, grow and adapt together. Those that wait until they are older, tend to be more set in stone and unwilling to adapt or grow with someone and wants to find some perfect person and doesn't exist. Yet if they do find that perfect person, they are not the perfect one for them.

amadimal · Answer

I think that became the norm, especially for younger people. There are plenty of dating apps available - it's like you have a catalog of potential partners on your hands 24/7, which makes people look ”expendable”. At the slightest inconvenience, they think ”this isn't a big deal. I have 20 other matches I can try out”. And then, the mere idea of swiping/scrolling gives you the illusion that something ”superior” is just around the corner.
I do believe in compatibility, but compatibility is something you also have to work on, to build it - which is something a lot of people ignore.

Lliam · Answer

I don't know. Maybe with all the available media imagery, not just in magazines and on TV, but on-line, people have idea about the perfect bod. The standards are unrealistically high.
But when I read comments, I realize that some people have really high standards, such as body count and other things.
I also get the impression that some people are looking for instant success. They don't just go on dates and see how it goes. They have to get to know the person on-line or via interminable texting.

Massageman · Answer

I'm not sure the term "nit-picky" would be the most appropriate.
Our society- advertising, media (especially fake), try to convince us that if a guy uses a certain razor and a gal wears a certain bra that people will beat a path to their proverbial drawer. Then hard reality sets in when IT. DOES. NOT. HAPPEN.

So, maybe it's more of a "disappointment" about being mislead or having too great of an expectation due to changing society mores. Put another way, the seeker of the "perfect partner" could be perceived as "nit-picky" because they are finding it hard to find someone who is even marginally functional (I exaggerate, but not a lot).

JSmuve · Answer

Perhaps. I know I have, but I've always been nitpicky. It's just worse now. I blame social media. With social media you have this illusion of abundance. Why go with an in-person girl with small tits when I can hop on social media or dating apps and find a dozen hotter women with D-cups in the span of 5 minutes? We get attracted to their pictures and the illusion of what they could be. But in person, they're less attractive than their pictures and their personality is often a lot less to be desired. But that won't stop us from staying on these sites to try to upgrade because "your perfect match is just one swipe away!" Thanks dating apps.

DanaeAdam5 · Answer

Because people today are to bored to make a relationship work, so they try to find someone who doesn't show any flaws.

No matter how perfect your partner seems, they will always do something that annoys you. And your relationship won't work if you don't put any effort in it.

crazyish · Answer

Yep. Everyone has standards. Expectations. In truth, those will only disappoint you and keep you from happiness and love.

Why do people set standards? Because of past experiences. Past relationships. Sorry but if someone has standards, they aren't over what happened to them in the past. They are still hurt and insecure from those experiences.

Ever hear that expression.. "If you don't heal from what hurt you, you will bleed on people who didn't cut you"

If you don't heal and take it out on the next, then you end up hurting and making the other person feel not good enough. Which will make them have standards so they don't ever feel that again or to prove to themselves that they are worth it.

Which in turn will hurt whoever they are with.

This cycle is what dating looks like these days. Technology makes it too easy to find the next. No one takes the time that's needed to get over anything.

This is why there are standards.

JackSmy · Answer

Is it "Nitpicky" that I want to meet, and date a lady, and by "lady" she has self-respect, and doesn't get black-out, obnoxious drunk, but rather is somewhat 'educated' being just living life or a college degree, they are similar, but different, but both can be delightful!
She takes care of herself, has a career, or a good job, and isn't a total Financial WRECK, just days from bankruptcy.
She is emotionally stable, and can deal with the average, daily 'stressors' of life, maybe she swears a bit, but can maintain her self.
She brings something, that I don't know, or haven't experienced to our relationship, as I do. . .
Is that "Too Nitpicky"?

TheUniqueOne96 · Answer

I've never dated before, so it's hard to say, but I definitely get the impression that people are like that online or on first dates, it just seems to me that people expect perfection and any minor flaw suddenly becomes a deal breaker.

Ultimately, I'd say yes, based on the impression, but I really don't know for sure.

kingofthellamas · Answer

I think that years back your options were limited. You could meet someone in your town, through school, work or hobbies. You had to put the effort in and be willing to compromise for the sake of the bigger goal.
Today, a dating app seams to offer endless options, a bottomless pool of opportunity if you could only see through all the chaff. So much choice gives an impression that it is possible to be really choosey; to not settle and find that perfect partner. (At least for girls anyway).
I'd also add that I think thanks to more comfortable and connected lifestlye, single life is both more acceptable today and easier than it once was.

Floppy2112 · Answer

Yes, in general I think people, seems to skew more towards women, have certain unreasonable expectations for whom they will date, usually by over valuing themselves or making 'grocery lists' For example, 'Man must be 6' tall, make 6 figures, and likes to go antiquing on sundays'. Men do it too, but not as much as women, in my opinion. I first need to find someone who isn't fucking nuts, then we can look at the other boxes.

Wiredone · Answer

People are looking for a story book romance. They will never find someone who will be totally perfect. It's ok to have standards but you should also be flexible. A true relationship is 100% give and 100% take. You can't look at a person's flaws, you need to see the positive things about a person.

Siren777 · Answer

Yes, I know I am. There is nothing wrong with it. As I cannot date a man I need to raise. I was raised to be strong, self sufficient, take good care of myself. I think there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. If I am ambitious, fun loving, kind and take care of myself. Why would I deserve any less? Know what you deserve and stick to your standards.

Tylermassengill · Answer

I believe that there are people who can be too nitpicky but not everyone is like that. You have to know what you want and be willing to look for it instead of just settling for anything, but you do have to make some compromises or work on some things sometimes. If it’s something big that you can’t work around then keep looking, but if it’s something small that you can work on then you have to be willing to put in the work instead of just breaking it off.

Yes people are too picky. That's because no one wants to find a relationship that's actually based on the person's character. Its always something that involves some sort of a "trade". And that's a problem because now you're just being superficial if the only thing that matters is somebody's resources.

The whole social media and online “ dating has caused folks to pretend to be something they aren’t, but it always gets revealed on the first physical date.

Honesty is always the best policy, from filling in your profile to in person dates.

We are given way too many options on dating sites, we'll for women anyways. So à lit think they will find their perfect prince charming, which doesn't exist. Mostly likely would of been a good match with someone that isn't perfect. I personally read the profile to see their intrests. And look at their photos. Then decide based if the bio. I maybe or seem picky, but I know what I want. Others do not seem to know. So unfortunate these dating sites. I think I'll give it up forever. Waste of time.
