I would say expectations, in this era dating has changed a lot most, people see dating on monetary so it's hard to please anyone because they will always think "if you can't I know someone that can" and that's the perks of being a woman is that they do know someone. But also as you get older more women have higher expectations so pleasing them gets even harder to the point where it's best to just be single.
Finding someone that is compatible morally, has compatible long term life goals, has an acceptable past, has some similar interests to enjoy together, and is attractive to me. (at least a 5 in my opinion). Finding that combination is the problem. Plenty are interested in me, but I find them unacceptable.
@Cheechee4me You must be mad because you are low quality. You probably have a past of sleeping around, or you are fat with tattoos, or have kids from past relationships.
No actually I’m kind, fair, pretty and a great person. I don’t look at people as inferior. Inferior people think that way. Actually inly a fool would call me that. I’m also engaged and am head over heels for the guy. What’s your relationship status again? What’s your opinion of the opposite sex? Didn’t you say lots of women like you? Yeah but nobody still around. See people like you are a dime a dozen. A lion wouldn’t have the screen name lion. Only a wannabe would. But keep thinking everyone is wrong but you. It’s your life that you’ll have to spend alone. At least I tried to warn yku.
No I’ve never said that at all. Lol you do know anyone can look at that and see you’re full of shit, right? I’m not a victim of anything- that’s more like what you are- especially considering you’re willing to copy link that shows I didn’t focus on my race. What I said was true. Sorry red pill. Nobody buys your story anymore. Maybe had you been a better person, they would have. But you blew it. Lol
Im only atracted to the looks of the girl. No girl or guy can choose who or what they are atracted to. They can only choose wjat they do with others.
This evolutionary mistake puts all avarage looking girls put of the question. That limits my options by far. Telling the absolute truth on a date will leave any girl's intrest in me if there ever was any.
I have made my peace with the truth and prepared to be single for my entire life.
My number one problem with dating is that I can't find a woman I want who isn't some e-girl cosplayer, esports gamer, or twitch/youtube streamer.
Every other girl who likes the stuff I like, either wants to stay hidden, or is already taken, or wants/has kids, or I'm not attracted to them physically, or they are outside my country.
And the ones I mentioned who are famous are so swarmed my men that I'm not going to bother.
Well, I'm in a relationship but when I was dating, the hardest parts were finding someone I genuinely clicked with and getting over my relationship anxiety from bad past experiences. Luckily, my boyfriend has always been really good about making me feel secure in our relationship.

I’m in a relationship, but used to have massive problems with dating and was perpetually single 😂 haha
it was because I have trust issues and push people away when they get too close, and also guys seemed to only like me for shallow reasons/ shallow guys wanted me so I couldn’t form a deeper connection.
Honestly as a guy, i'm not shy to go up and talk to a girl it's just that I don't want to bother her or she may already have a boyfriend. I can take rejection and move on. But my reason is that I don't drink, I don't do drugs, I don't party, I don't hang out with stupid people and it seems to me there are tons of people in relationships who post their life and you have to behave or act a certain way. I don't know but I'm not about that life style.
I think people judge too much a book by its cover. I’m guilty of this too, sometimes it works in dating sometimes it doesn’t. Sexy woman who’s not right for you but you still try and make it work. Average guy who’s everything you’ll ever need but you turn him down because you think you can do better. I mean it’s tough, the choices are not always easy to make. Ratings supposed to be fun and light, but too often it can get a little messy.
The desire for a relationship will come when the girl comes. The girl will not come because of my desire. First of all because i dont have a desire for a girl. Really, a "girl" is a concept, it isn't a real person. And a relationship is made with a real person, not a girl. I haven't met anyone that has created that much of a desire in me
Yeah, I get that, there are like 0 women on the dating market who are single and want anything serious. The women who are willing to date you only want to use you, and the rest are so busy fucking with men who are only using them that they don't have time for genuinely good men.
you go on a date have a decent time pay your own way and a person assumes they are getting sex at the end of the date. dating is very backwards these days
@readyplayer001 I don't know my comment got deleted, but I love all kinds of food <3 I even used to get these Mexican pizzas that had a layer of beans, cheese, peppers, etc damn it was good I forget where I got it though.
Costco, that's a $4 date. Plus you get a free hot dog. That's not an innuendo, I'm pretty sure the only way to get a drink is if you order a hot dog. The free sex comes later XD
That's awesome. but no Costco pizza options for you. Actually, they would probably make us a cheese only by request, but we'd have to get a whole pizza. At that point, I think it's better to get a blank and make your own at home. My half:
Spinach, shiitake, green and red bell, red onion, garlic, artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomato, kalamatas, mozzarella and brie.
I'm black, I'm mostly attracted to white men and I live in a racist country. If I was only attracted to black men or if I lived in a different country I wouldn't be single now.
I have a lot of number one problems:•My work schedule•My hobbies aren’t sociable•Previous experiences•Don’t put myself out there•Don’t know any single women•Refusal to use dating apps•Don’t understand women•Seen too many divorces
The lack of effort that people aren't caring to put anymore, I've always felt like im giving more but not getting the same in return and of course finding the connection is hard.
I don't like the concept of online dating, I don't go out to bars or other social functions, and I quit using Facebook. I know that is more than one problem but they all could be number one problems so I'm not sure which is worse
Try using Meetup. com. It's a site that gets people to meet for things like bowling, hiking, or whatever. You meet in a group, for socializing and you have that icebreaker in that you all get together for an activity that you all enjoy. Then if you meet someone, great. If not you still have some fun.
Afraid of being honest, afraid of being judged, afraid of being considered weak, afraid of allowing themselves to get hurt emotionally, there are many possible culprits, but regardless, he's right that people who can't be honest are scared, and they're typically scared of themselves/the way other view them. They lie because they're afraid and need to feel like they're in control.
@linadagoddess it varies with the person, but generally they are afraid that if they show who they are, they won't receive love/acceptance. To be rejected is one thing, but it cuts deep if it's for who you really are deep down.
One simple example is the kid in the cookie jar. He takes a cookie, mom asks who took the cookie, and he lies because he is afraid (of consequences). For relationships, similar example. Take a person who has a bad habit like drinking, temper, cheating, lazy, whatever. They are gonna try to hide it rather than change it because they know it's not desirable. But it takes effort to fix it and honestly laziness is a human trait, imho lol.

If I had one it would be "if I need your friends or parent's approval before I'm with you, I'm not interested.".
other than that, saving or sharing our private conversations.
other than that, feminist/woke beliefs or the other extreme, extremely conservative.

Sure you do. You’re the guy who talks shit about women all the time. Yeah notice they may be interested at first but they don’t stick around.
@Cheechee4me You must be mad because you are low quality. You probably have a past of sleeping around, or you are fat with tattoos, or have kids from past relationships.
@Cheechee4me And you are mad because you hate real statistics and want to be a victim due to your race. Why do people give bad information? ↗

Lol
Omg you are incredibly stupid. Lol I’m sorry. That’s all.
Hahahahaha!!!

The woman I want to date is a different religion than I am. So we're trying to figure that out
You’ll find a way ❤️❤️❤️
I really hope so!!
Interesting! I hope everything works out in the end. Good luck! :) ❤
@menina Thank you!!
You're welcome! :)

it is hard to find someone who I can vibe with that is genuine and ready to be in a committed relationship.

@devilman666 wow that’s like the opposite where I’m from. Sorry you haven’t met a good woman where you are.
Girl answers: "All these guys just want to bang. It's so tiring dealing with all this attention."
Guy answers: "No woman gives me the time of day."
you go on a date have a decent time pay your own way and a person assumes they are getting sex at the end of the date. dating is very backwards these days
@zeitgeist057 LOL, we all know pizza is way waaaay better
@readyplayer001 I don't know my comment got deleted, but I love all kinds of food <3 I even used to get these Mexican pizzas that had a layer of beans, cheese, peppers, etc damn it was good I forget where I got it though.
@zeitgeist057 who knows with GAG, haters. im pretty easy to please pizza and a fountain soda lol
Costco, that's a $4 date. Plus you get a free hot dog. That's not an innuendo, I'm pretty sure the only way to get a drink is if you order a hot dog. The free sex comes later XD
@zeitgeist057 im vegetarian :(

I may just give it a try. Thanks for the advice
Lack of seriousness from the opposite sex… no consistency, no honesty… all games
people who aren't honest are scared. and fear is the love killer.

What are they afraid of?
