Is dating harder for men or women?

[Anonymous]

It’s harder for men

It’s harder for women

It’s equally as hard for both gender

Probably depends on your view. In the short run guys in the long run girl.
A guy has to take rejection after rejection to finally get a yes. Even then he's just got his foot in the door. She can decide " well he's just not right" at any time.
Finally at some point the woman becomes emotionally invested in the relationship and she starts thinking more long term with the guy.
Now here's where the guy has the advantage. At this point he can start chasing other women if he's that type of guy. Because when a woman becomes invested with a guy she will cruise past every red flag. Not because it isn't obvious but because with women their feelings override logic everytime. She doesn't want to believe the guy she fell in love with could be capable of these bad things so she concepts any story in her head she has to so he still fits the narrative she's created for him.

I would say overall women have it easier as a whole though. Because women can decide she going to start dating someone today on a whim. So she select a guy and odds are he's going to say yes. But if by some miracle he doesn't she can try again. Guarantee one guy that night is going to accept.
The same can't be said for guys. Some it may take weeks, months, possibly even years.

I'll take the MHO now. Lol

Thanks for the MHO.

Harder is a vague adjective.

While women have more options, they often have to wait for the man to make the move.
While men have to put more effort into it, they don't have to contend with the simple fact that many men are outright dangerous.

Most women have more opportunities. They’ll have far more dates in their life than most me.

[TwoowT]

For women. Guys can get with anything but for a girl not the same case.

[Asker]

Not all guys. Some guys can’t get one date.

[NightHawk99]

It's harder for men by far.

Sure, a girl can start catching feelings for an attractive guy. However, if she starts playing emotional games with him, and the results don't turn out in her favor, she flips the whole world upside down. Believe it or not ladies, you make it harder for us men than it needs to be when you do this.

Well I like to feel men because it has always seemed far more common for men than for women to go deep or late into adulthood and never had a relationship before or still a virgin, for example, whenever you hear of a person who surpasses their mid-20s or older and still single,. The Person in that situation is normally male

It's harder for men to get a date and harder for women to get someone for a long term relationship. That said, it has to be factored in that women in general are pickier.

[Avicenna]

I think we can say it's hard to both to find someone suitable.

[ChrisMaster69]

It’s the same for different reasons for both.

some of the reasons will be the same.

I could not really separate either gender.

[Dchrls78104]

When a woman gets arrested for rape or sexual assault or has his life endangered for looking at a guy or trying to talk to a guy, then I'll be convinced that women have it harder in dating.

[Browneye57]

The burden of performance in all things related to man-woman relationships is on the man. PERIOD.
So do the work. Be the real man.

[msc545]

It's really difficult for men and in many cases, it's so difficult that it turns out not to be worth it. A lot of men just give up on dating because of the bulshit that women put them through

[Tunasub]

Man and woman share equally in making relationshis hard..

[Anonymous]

Depends.

Women can get killed and men told no, in worst case.

In case you mean getting and keeping one, men have it harder.

[Dchrls78104]

Men can get killed, too. It has happened to several people in my country.

@Dchrls78104
Just be real here, how big is the chance?
1% for men, even then we would need to include outside help vs 90% of women can be killed by most unarmed men?

[Shihab91]

harder for men since most of the time we are the hunters

[shydude1991]

For us, we're expected to do everything, approach, ask her out, wine and dine her and then wipe that sweaty ass of hers

[JesseJayNeak]

Men, since we don't do the rejecting (unless you're a chick magnet)

[Aquariusmystery]

Women bc men only want one thing most of the time

[Asker]

I don’t think so. Lots of men want a long term relationship.

[Aquariusmystery]

I said most of the time

[Asker]

Yes most of the time. The average woman has far more opportunities.

[zagor]

Hard to say, as it is harder in different ways.

[ToastyOats]

Women can get a date anytime they want. EASY!

[Grubhub]

Men, women get approached all the time
