Why is modern dating so hard?

[NightNick]

As a guy why is dating so much harder today than ever. More men are single than women by a margin of for every one girl that has a date there are 10 men that don't. What can we do to make this margin smaller and make things more batter for both men and women to start to except the flaws and stop looking for the 1% and make average the expectance of normal dating.

Most women are looking for a stable long-term relationship in which they can love and be loved. If you can offer that you are in the game even as an average dude.

Going for the hottest 1% of guys can only ever apply to women who are just looking for casual sex. Otherwise they would both be off the market for long or forever. Consider George Clooney who was too 1% until not so long ago. He is with Amal and that's it, for 10 years now already.

I'm not even looking for a promiscuous woman in the first place. Among those looking for love the chances are almost equally matched. I do admit it gets easier with age, though. In your twenties it can be more of a challenge. At 14 it was cruel, even.

Most PEOPLE (men and women) are selfish. Most really do not want a relationship. Most just want tribute. And when thier partner stops paying tribute them then they've lost thier usefulness. Most people only want to take. Very few want to give anything. And if they did give it's with definite strings attached.

For most guys there was a time when they put effort in and asked a woman out they were likely to get a date. Now today Most guy know they have a 10% shot at best and that's to the women who respond favorably. To Most guys the whole thing is a put up a deal and after a while they stop trying. There's simply no point.

I look at it rationally. Everytime I've asked a woman out I've been rejected. Everytime she's asked me out she accepted 100% of the time. Now if you're in my shoes what would you do. So I let them approach me.

I'm not going to trivialize what should or shouldn't be. I deal with reality. This is what is.

LMAO, I don't know any man that is having trouble with dating. Guys I know are either dating, have a girlfriend or are married.

Perhaps you should quit thinking the 1% lie is even a thing.

Because promiscuity permanently damages people and warps their values and priorities.

It's way easier now. Unless your plan of modern dating includes dating apps. Dating apps are useless. Go to the grocery store and pick out some melons

Everybody’s looking out for number 1 and that means when couples get together in these times they butt heads I’m not that way, but it’s very tough nowadays
