Besides this let me ask… is it the failed dates and bad women or is it the lack of options? If it’s failed dates you need to accept that not all matches are good. Bad women then perhaps you need to change your appearance and how you choose your women. If it’sa lack of options then you need to market yourself better…
Let’s look at real facts. Women are not as amazing as they think they are. They have this overinflated sense of value because of simp society these days. This is a gynocentric society that cares more for women then men. Accept it and take what’s yours. Or don’t accept scraps and survive with an easy and probably lonely life. Neither are bad options.
Men are definitely dropping in quality. The top men don’t have to be amazing to be recognized and no man needs to commit to get sex… stay away from dating apps. Only the best looking chads win on tinder and other apps. It also leaves men like you feeling left out and unwanted. That’s a dark place to be and it’s now you’ll see the darkness to society… a darkness people struggle to accept and drains the kindness and quality out of people. That makes you more ugly to women dude… besides if you let the world break you you lose regardless. So man up… go to the gym… stop caring what some hoe with tits thinks of you… build yourself and fill your time with hobbies you like… then whether you find a good woman or remain single your whole life you can still be happy.

Well you should never give up... but you need to step back and do some serious self reflection on yourself and determine what it was about the choices you made with these women that you can improve upon and apply to your future decision making processes.
Chances are you looking for or attracting the wrong types of ladies... so you need to decide what if any changes you need to make about your approach and choices to achieve the best version of your self.
Lastly you can NOT blame or hold yourself accountable for their actions or inabilities. But you need to hold your self accountable for the choices and actions you took along the way that enable that type of behavior to create inequitable relationship.
Rejection, Failure and Disappointment is an ingrained part of the dating process, and to a certain degree it is required, so that we can learn from our experiences to make the right changes about ourselves that will eventually allow us to find the right type of people to date. Every failure is an opportunity to learn and improve ourselves... so do not give up ever, just get back on the horse and keep riding. Start seeking better opportunities and learn how to improve on your skills to build strong long lasting bonds. But do not make excuses for other people or take any responsibilities for their failures... its not your fault and you are not to blame.
Sometimes taking a break is neccessary! Take the time to realign your thoughts on what you want in a man, but more importantly! Focus on glowing up!! Get that education,, that job,, travel and more importantly enjoy the journey of being solo!! Will the duche bags disappear? No lol but hopefully with the time you take off, you'll be ready to handle those type of situations. Dating shouldn't be "hard" but our society has made it complicated by normalizing all that not so fun stuff like ghosting, catfishing etc. Best of luck! He's out there and so are you 🙂
Just say fuck it now.. you can always go back to actively searching if nothing happens naturally. Maybe you will get to be excited about meeting someone new over time. For me it is up and down with this desire.
Sometimes it is best to just be single and focusing on all the other nice things life has besides relationships :)

Men:
Right now! Unless you're literally perfect, you will NEVER be good enough for modern (Western) women. Dating is a sh*tshow. And while simps certainly are to blame, women are and always have been the gatekeepers of dating. And since almost no men are good enough for them nowadays, it's best to stop trying to win a game you simply cannot win. Focus on yourself and if love is meant to happen to you, it will. If not, you won't have wasted much of your youth trying to win something that's near impossible.
Women:
Once you realize your perfect man is impossible to achieve and does not exist, therefore, you will never be satisfied. So just give up now.Well you can think of it however you want to the think about this remember when you were two years old and you wanted to walk no matter how many times you fell down how many times did you get back up hey shithappens it's out of your control don't take it personally stand back up and walk again it is what it is is what you're telling me but it is what you make it if you make it a big deal when it's going to be a big deal say fuck it stand back up and try it again you're the only person that can do it for yourself
Just take time to invest in yourself and put dating on the back burner, dude. Work on your career, finances, hobbies, purpose and friendship. Don't focus on women and take this time to figure out what you value.
Women flock to good energy. Have good energy and set boundaries and standards for women. They break them, tell them to pound sand and let them go.You don't need to quit dating but you should become more picky in terms of personality and lower your standards on appearance. I know the most faithful, kind women who are single because so many guys pass them up since they are not a 10. I myself am like that but still single. The biggest thing Is don't date party girls and get to know their personality. Don't be afraid to break it off if they show their toxic side.
Sucks man..
The dating world is awful. As someone who’s gone on maybe 15 dates last year I can say avoid the girls that play games aka shit test you. You’ll know when they start getting confusing and wishy washy.
Wait for the ones that are simple and make it clear they like and want you.
I’ve noticed the Italian woman are less complicated.
The pretty Christian girls set their bars high, so watch out for those.
Watch out for scammers in online datingAs a man I'd say stay away from apps, they will absolutely destroy your self esteem and confidence, making it nearly impossible to succeed.
Take a break or better yet, stop trying so hard. If a women want you she has much more freedom to approach and doesn't have to deal with the level of rejection and suspicion a man must deal with.
So sit back, work on yourself, your career, keep fit and don't be desperate.Jesus! Two bad relationships and you want to give up? No! Pick yourself up and go out there. Just don't go out there looking for a girlfriend. Go out there and live your life normally. If you go out there and see every girl as a "potencial girlfriend" you will be blinded by reality and probably hurt yourself again!
You should read some red pill content to broaden your mind and try to make sense of the experiences you've had. It'll let you know where you need to put your priorities. Once you've consumed enough content, you'll understand so much but also be horribly disappointed to the point where you won't feel bad about saying "fuck it" because it'll be the best thing you could do for yourself.
never give up dating no matter what has happened with your past dating experiences never give up on dating just make sure to tell your future partner all of your past experiences so that your future partner will now that you would give up on dating but that your still open to get to know somebody.
I don't understand why people use dating apps. Try using a meeting site. Try something like meetup dot com.
Find some interest, meet with groups in your area, and then try to get to know women who have similar hobbies, etc.It's different for everyone. I quit for so many reasons, females always telling me how ugly I am, I spent so much time, effort and money trying to date but have never been on a date, friends set me up on a blind date girl walks in looks my way and leaves. A few decades of that was enough to give up forever, I get it I'm ugly and I won't find love but now I don't really care anymore.
Stop formally going on "dates" and start just interacting with the people you're interested in. It's the natural way.
Indeed forget the online dating if you do not have quality pictures. It's a waste of mental effort.when you fucking dieeeee!!!
Don't give up on hope ya little bitchhhh.
get tf out there and keep on meeting honeys, some will be shit but some will be great.
You're gonna get fucking destroyed, bitches gonna break your heart it's what they do. But man the fuck up and face it.
Happiness and real love is out there, keep trying, keep improving and be good to yourself!!!
you got this bruvThe interesting thing is, if you just have a 'hell with it' and give up attitude, that's when the fantastic dating choices just magically turn up for you. It takes a little time, but it happens.
I'm about to hit 10 years older than you, and you've had a better run than I have so far. I'm giving it this year then giving up on a lifetime of rejection and feeling unwanted.
Now. It's ridiculous. You don't want to waste another moment on it. If you can stay single past 35 you will thank your lucky stars. Never take dating advice from women. Good luck brother
Never. Just change your approach. it's probably flawed somehow. It's what I had to do. Plus, I live in the country, so I have to drive 1 1/2 hrs to go on a date, typically, but I do.
Seek counseling and talk through it. You probably stayed in a relationship most people would have left. It’s a sign of poor boundaries and a poor self-image.
Optimistically you should never give up. You seem to be confident enough in yourself and that's a good sign, so I'd advice you keep trying.
(P. S- I've practically given up due to self worth issues, so do I say not as I do 😂)I have no real advice for you but I do sympathise! Single 6 years :(
