Do you think it's more: "People being immature" or "People being selfish" that's ruining dating/relationships these days? (Page 3)

[FatherJack]

A & B , definitely both. A larger portion of selfishness though.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

I agree selfishness plays a bigger part

[Kiran_Yagami]

Both, I'd say. Selfishness is probably more at play than immaturity, but there is no shortage of immaturity in today's dating world.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

So true, well said

[anon1903]

There are some who don't even know what they are in for. Relationships are so overrated by media that people have this mindset "ooh i should get one of those" like getting a date is nothing major

[anon1903]

Not really immaturity, just brainwashing by the fiction that the only ones who are happy have their happy endings

[ElvenMr]

I think it's both, or it's some kind of combination of those two.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

,👍👍

[Shiningtempest]

@Brainsbeforebeauty People being both immature & selfish are the reason why dating/relationships crumble these days.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

[Smegskull]

I think it is more technology has advanced so fast that it is exploiting our biological drives (Just as casinos do).

[Smegskull]

Would have not "would of" 🤦

Bonus question ❓ Can anyone please explain how asking this question makes me a "Karen"❓🤣 Man, I wish I would ❗HAVE❗ seen that reply (now removed)" before" posting this post: What's the most "asshat" thing you've heard someone say? ↗ But to the "user" that left that and then deleted account, you get the asshat award of the day😊🤣

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Have you ever swipe texted? You do know sometimes it fills in our changes the word? But thanks for pointing that out😊

[Smegskull]

It is never "would of" so if it is auto correcting to that it is picking up on a trend of you making that mistake.
The mistake "would of" usually comes from hearing the abbreviation of would have (would've).
I have seen "would of" be correct only in the context of "... would of course...". That is poor grammar though, as it should be "... would, of course, ...".

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Well gee thank you professor

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

But not always true.. I tried to type person and it sent as pain...

[driven159]

Its both plus people want things right now no patients

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Right!!

[jshm2]

Neither.

People are just watching too many movies, and wrongly think that is how life works.

[Hulk30]

because every behavior such as selfishness has a root cause which is emotional immaturity

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

True true

[lunargoddess]

A little bit of both. And it's usually one being selfish and one being immature.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

👍👍

[EmisElite]

That's a good question. I would enjoy hearing your opinion on it. What are your thoughts?

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Of the two, I'd say selfish.. People can be immature in a more harmless way, and then there's immaturity that just goes too far... But a selfish person who only thinks of their needs, their wants, their happiness isn't going to be a good partner... When you're in a relationship your partner's needs wants happiness should be just as important to you as your own.. These questions on here, men asking what women these days being too the table and women asking what men being too the table when they should be asking themselves what do THEY THEMSELVES bring too the table or how about just be grateful you have someone at the table with you

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

*bring not being🤦🏼‍♀️

[termanator]

I think it’s all the rampant pre-marital sex that is ruining relationships today, nothing is special anymore !

[RedStiletto88]

I’m going to say both

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Yeah both could contribute.. I think selfishness is worse personally...

[lrina]

kind of both, but i think it's generally selfish

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

I agree

[CrazyGirl2]

I think it’s a little bit of both!

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

I agree both are at play, but I feel people have become more and more selfish, me me me

[CrazyGirl2]

It’s been like that for as long as I’ve dated guys.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Maybe it's cuz I'm older, but neither of my husbands were selfish like that

[CrazyGirl2]

Who knows, everyone thinks that life was better when THEY were young, but that’s probably because everything is better when we’re young?

[Nephilim000]

Don't you think they are two sides of the same coin

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Can be.. People that are selfish are immature, but not every immature person may be selfish

[Anonymous]

I think it's something else

Too much working because the economy has gone to hell just like how stay at home parents have disappeared, now they don't even have the time to get that far

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Even working, you can make time for people if you really want to, that too busy is an excuse in my opinion.. I worked, was care giver for my husband the last year of his life, worked, and took care of my two kids and still made time for the people that mattered to me..

[Opinion Owner]

These day you need to do 100 each every week to afford to survive

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

I work 6-10 hour days a week,(off work now-sick leave) but still make time for the people that are important to me🤷🏼‍♀️

[Opinion Owner]

I work for them, keeping the lights on and the freezer full, I take a sick day and I can't afford to eat

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

You die and it won't matter.. Have to take care of oneself in order to be able to work

[Opinion Owner]

That's why I have life insurance just in case

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

That's good!!

[Citizenkirk]

I think you are seeing relationship pandemics where none exist

[Nagahime]

I feel like it's a little bit of both

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

👍👍

[humanearth]

I think both and I would add greed

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

👍👍

[humanearth]

Your not a Karen, I see you more as Daisy Duke and driving the General Lee right up a Karen's Fat Ass

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Hahahaha 🤣🤣 that got me, thanks for that laugh out loud moment🤣🤣 and just do I don't gotta wear Daisy duke shorts🤣🤣
