Because those people don’t really co pretend what love is, and aren’t able to comprehend that love and sex and money are not the same thing.
cause women have impossibly contradictory standards that no man can fullfill.
I agree with that both men and women have unrealistic expectations.
well all men want is a girl that hugs them, kisses them, listens to them, laughs at their jokes and spreads her legs for them xD. that's not contradictory. it's quite easy to fullfill. i don't think this is "unrealistic", unless the guy wanting this is not willing to provide those things himself.
women however demand that a man sees them as equal to them, when it comes to socio-economic status, yet demand that he pays for dates and provides for her, when she's pregnant with his children, which is highly contradictory.
then also women want men to not have "male toxicity", showing emotions to her. but only emotions that she finds romantic. if he cries about something she thinks is puny, then her pussy will dry up like a desert and she'll probably look for another man.
at the same time they want their man to defend them and their child from physical or other harm caused by life or people, cause they are stronger, which contradicts the entire "equality" and the male toxicity thing at the same time.
@genericname85 well maybe that’s all you want but there are other men who have unrealistic expectations of women too. Not all women are the same. Everyone is an individual and wants to be treated as a human not a slave. If being equal means being treated fairly as a human being offendeds a man then he isn’t much of a man to begin with.
*if being equal and treated fairly as a human being and not a slave offends a man, then he isn’t much of one to begin with.
i have no issues with treating someone equally. but you can't demand to be treated "equally" and yet expect preferrential treatment at the same time :D i'm not speaking about "you" particularly but the generalized "you".
you understand what i'm saying? it has nothing to do with being offensive or politically correct/incorrect. it's all about being logically coherent. i don't care which type of person you are. there's more conservative girls and there's more modern and liberal girls. all good.
it's just logically contradictory to wanna be seen as equal but at the same time expect special treatment. if you're logically coherent, you expect special treatment and accept you're not equal. or you expect equal treatment and don't want any special treatment.
i'm not saying all girls are so contradictory in their expectations. but those that aren't will easily find love xD
I respect your answer and agree with you that the females who aren’t contradictory in their expectations will find love easier, clearly being that’s a plus for a man.
well generally speaking, why would anyone have a partner that's not a "plus" in some sense? :D
Because they're starting to understand that love doesn't really exist. It's just a chemical response to the idea of a person who can provide what you want in life
Umm I don't know about this because Love does exist—example a mother loves her child
It's not the same kind of love. I can see why you think that. But few people (fewer women) have that kind of trust.
We're talking about romantic love, not the bond between a parent and child. Women don't live men who can't protect, provide for, and validate them. Therefore, it's not the man they love, it's the benefits he provides. And even if he does provide them, they'll eventually lose their luster and she'll focus on all the things he doesn't do. His good qualities become things he's just supposed to do as the bare minimum, and so they're no longer good enough for her.
I've experienced this too many times, and I'm currently in the same situation all over again. But this will most likely be my last time. I'll devote my effort to the one person who appreciate them... me
Understood, I hate that that’s been your experience but I know for a fact that that’s not what ALL women want. Some women genuinely like the man for the person he is, but nobody wants a bum so he should work and take care of his responsibilities
Yes exactly. LIKE the man for who he is, but LOVE requires what I said before. So as I said: love doesn't really exist.
False love does exist—I know that first hand
Just like you can love anything I’m this world, you can love a partner the same
Your pov is jaded
*in…
@ChiTown33 He said love doesn’t exist and that’s not a fact. And love does exist you can love anything. What makes you think that a person can’t love another person who there in a relationship? They can.
The fact is anybody can love anything and a person is not excluded
*typos but you get the point
Me and blue anon are NOT saying the same thing. But I will agree it's not the same type of love. It should be, but it's not. There's simply not enough trust when it comes to romantic love. My mother and my sister's are the only women I fully trust on the planet. Not because they won't hurt me. But because it'll never be done for selfish or intentional reasons. And don't try to tell me the problem is with me. I'm fine, we live in a mean, petty, and selfish world. I believe women can love and love fairly strongly (for a certain length of time) but that's where it ends.
We do live in a mean selfish world but at the end of the day you choose who you want to trust and love. With that being said my point is valid love exist and you can love anything including a person (partner) Relationships don’t always last but that doesn’t mean that you didn’t love the person.
Love by it's very nature reciprocated. What your calling, I wouldn't call love.
Reciprocates.
It exists as a chemical response in the brain that connects the idea of that person to the things you want in life. It's not some mystical force that binds two people together forever or even for life. There's a reason that the traditional wedding vows include "in sickness and in health, for better or worse, for richer or poorer". If love itself included those conditions, there would be no need to promise them. Married people stayed together 100 years ago because they had to by law, not because of love.
Yes I do agree that Love is just a chemical response!!
Well, that is what I said in the first place.
You did but you also stated love didn’t exist (an opinion) lol —
Either way I get what you was trying to say 🙃
Because they are impatient and maybe they can find hook ups easily.
I have heard people say "All the good ones are married" . I never believed that. I see a lot of lazy men out and about. I will pick on guys... will not improve themselves and are pessimistic towards women. In other words they have a F@#$ it attitude.
Yes pick on guys you're scared of being called an incel
Because the kind of relationships that our parents and grandparents had are a thing of the past. People are different today. Women are different. They are not the prize they once were. I just don't see how it's worth all the effort and sacrifice.
Nah. People are people. But our parents and grandparents didn't see endless possibilities like people see today. They didn't think of divorcing when things were shitty. People do so now. And sometimes, lightly. Also, I think, at least, my parents took the time to get to know each other and each other's families to see if THAT fit.
People often marry knowing little about each other except how sexy they are. Longterm relationships have to mesh on physical, mental and emotional levels. Spiritual levels need to be similar too. You have to stand together and look in the same direction, as well as have your individual goals and pursuits. Your habits need to be similar too. Someone who doesn't like to travel won't last with someone who wants to see the world. You need to share and grow from individual as well as paired interests.
Who ever said women were prizes? Where do these fantasies come from? Why should there be so much effort and sacrifice? People should fit each other. Not be carbon copies, not be aliens. Couples should enjoy each other. NO one on a pedastal, no relationship so disruptive and difficult that it gives you a headache.
Relationships should bring you joy and growth. Sometimes there will be dissonance. But good couples find out what's going wrong and work on it and get through it. Most of time it should be effortless. Only time there shouldbe effort is when you're changing course or re evaluating what. you're doing, trying/doing something new.
Because we’re suddenly independent and it’s actually a very nice feeling to be independent
Because there’s no point in hoping for something you can never have
Why not?
How do your expect me to find love if i can't even get a woman to have coffee with me.
Its a waste of time
Too many money chasing women out there
Have ya noticed something called "onlyfans" these days
Too many factors. Finding the right person at the right time with the right personality and sharing your likings.
People are offended by love because fake people contaminate love, and love remains only on the skin as the love of pleasure.
Same reason I don't try to bench press 500 lbs - after a while you're just hurting yourself.
2019 Bachelor Colton Underwood just came out as gay... maybe he's on to something.
For me, it's because I have problems finding the right person to be with. No one seems to understand me or want to know me.
Because nothing last long
True, I guess that would seem like a waste of time investing in a temporary person
Because the only reward for finding it is broken dreams and financial ruin.
Because they're tired of "not being the right type" and the friendzone is not an option.
I can guess what some people here are going to say.
I DON'T THINK THAT THEY ARE AS SO MANY PEOPLE REGARDING THEM AS SO
.
.
I've learned that people get hurt when they fall in love .. either someones not ready not interested or dunno how to love
because they like me have been on too many dating sites and have not gotten anywhere :(
The cost of cheap substitutes has come way, WAY down.
Maybe more guys out there are growing tired and resentful of always having to approach women
This is the last generation of humanity, that's the biggest reason right there
Because women have made it impossible and not worth dating them.
maybe a lot of guys, men, are growing resentful of having to be the hunters and initiators
Because women are height supremacists
Because you hid it too well.
Hide what to well?
love
I live in Ireland women here are horrible to men, and I look good. foreign men hate them
because people are extremely complicated
Hard to find the right person?
They have no patience
Too many disappointments maybe.
Its a difficult commodity to find..
Women are incapable of love.
I’m tired of looking stupid and wasting my time
This I can agree with. Especially wasting time
cheaters, lairs, whores and the likes
Their nose is stuck to their phone.
Because they don’t find it so they leave it
Too difficult. I got lucky
because people are just a pain in the ass now
Love has a way of finding each other
Too many scammers.
Lol 😆
It too much of a bitch today
Love finds you.
it can't be found
The person has to be found who obtains it
that person doesn't exist
If you believe that
that’s what you’ll attract
No love
cool
Because they've had enough of waiting
love dont exist
In your mind
@TwinkleLily5 nope.. Its true...
They're not.
It’s a waste of time
Bc love is big liar
