Do you agree with this take on why men are walking away from relationships nowadays?

[Purpleronnie]

She raises a few valid points that resonate with me but to be honest I don’t watch this sort of content. Being in a very happy relationship for the past 13 years much of it doesn’t bare any resemblance to my lived experience. I don’t know any men “walking away from relationship’ it just sounds like hyped inflammatory nonsense and doesn’t engage me.

[HawkPerception]

Not nonsense. Actual statistics. Just because you don't see a whole demographic doesn't mean it doesn't exist

[Purpleronnie]

I’m not denying the existence of that demographic , that’s not what I said. “ I don’t know any men walking away from relationships “. Sure I can read blurb that says there is an increase in younger men choosing against the complexities of modern dating and relationships , but that’s not my lived experience , I’ve not been dating in over 20 years 🤣. When I hear some of the commentary around men choosing to be single for those reasons , being honest i feel it contradicts what masculinity means to me
And yes i do still think it’s nonsense because , it’s just intense scrutiny and hyper focused analysis where there is just no need in my opinion. Buts that’s what you asked for right? My opinion? .

yeppers.
They have taken enough crap from women just to get laid, and it just isn't worth it.
Life is short, go have fun.

Yes for the most part , Most females’ nowadays are very selfish people that only want what they feel is best for themselves , Most females’ have the grass is greener on the other side syndrome in them , basically by allowing themselves to be brainwashed by social media or their toxic girlfriends’ that tell her she deserves better than what she has in front of her , I’m not saying guys’ can’t be selfish as well , but females’ definitely hold the title on this. Statistics show females’ are the number 1 reason for divorce., why so many good guys’ ’ don’t want to take the chance of having their heart broken by a selfish female that he gives his heart to. I have witnessed and experienced so many females’ betray their husbands’ and boyfriends’ because she didn’t get her way , or her man lost his job , or wasn’t making the money she expected him to make, always comparing him to other men or her girlfriends’ man , Guys’ on the other hand will not cheat on a girl that loves and values him that stands by his side no matter what , that doesn’t use intimacy and affection as a weapon , which sadly a lot of females’ tend to do to get her way. Most men do not get married to be single , they get married hoping she loves him as much as he loves her , but most females’ do not know what love means in a relationship, she was raised to think she deserves to be catered to at all times , and when her man fails to meet her expectations, he becomes a POS to her eyes. Guys’ nowadays only want a girl that brings value into hisLife and happiness , not a girl that isn't his partner , not a girl that is user , not a girl that thinks she deserves be treated like a princess at all times and pampered at all tomes , If she has that selfish mindset , then she shouldn’t be surprised when he leaves her or cheats on her with someone else. Guys’ want a girl that is loving and loyal and honest and respectful , that only wants to be in his arms , that makes him her top priority the same way he will do for her. Relationships and marriages aren’t hard , selfish people make them hard

If you came a bit earlier, I would've given you MHO

Thats a good answer Finchie. American guys should go for those natural girls. Its only way, dumb the golddiggers cause thats what you are if you only see a man as an asset to your bankaccount basically.

I think the comedian Bill Burr trashes these women pretty good on a regular basis. xD But he is a little angry too, I would be aswell!

Can I ask is this a geographical problem in America? Im from Sweden but I would like to think that this false bullshit is more prevelant in West America and Northeast America? And that the south is more value based? If it is, wouldn't it be easier to find a real women there?

It's not that “men are walking away from dating.” It’s that a lot of boys and girl-women are rage quitting a game they were never ready to play to begin with.
You’ve got guys without their shit together chasing 21-year-olds who learned relationships from TikTok hot takes, then declaring all women undateable when that sandbox explodes.

Adult partnership is a different sport that includes clarity, reciprocity, conflict skills, and actual life stability. If your only reps are with baby TikTok dynamics, of course you think dating is broken. Try being a grown ass man, with a career (not just a job), a decent credit score, a mortgage in his own name, healthy mind and body... dating grown women, at your own level, with her life in order too, and watch how fast the “I’m walking away/going overseas” monologues evaporate.

Men aren’t quitting women. Immature people are quitting accountability. When both sides show up like adults... honest, steady, private about conflict, and reciprocal... the “walking away” storyline dies on its own. However, that adult level existence in both men and women is ridiculously rare.

[HawkPerception]

Sounds like you're implying a man is only worth dating when they have a career, decent credit score, and mortgage in his own name.

Men don't care about that stuff when it comes to women. But I guess it's impossible to ask for the same from women, eh?

[MzAsh]

I used career/credit/mortgage as examples, not necessarily a checklist. The point is, be a grown adult who can carry his side of life without creating collateral damage. That includes stuff like steady income (not riches), basic financial competence, emotional regulation, follow through, boundaries, and the ability to solve problems without turning your partner into your parent.

And yes, the same standard applies to women. Partnership is logistics and character. You might not care about credit scores when you’re flirting but you absolutely care when it’s leases, emergencies, job loss, taxes, or a kid with a fever at 3 a. m.

Attraction can start a relationship. Capability keeps it. If people knew what long term partnership actually requires, they’d care about these things a lot more.

[blackeagle007]

lol I saw videos of women going to Home Depot in hopes of finding a husband. Since we stopped approaching, women are panicking 😊

[MzAsh]

You know that’s content right?

[blackeagle007]

It’s true anywhere else. We no longer approach based on how you all behave.

[MarkJan]

Watched the whole clip, didn’t agree with some points but that’s what this app is for. The point I loved was Want or Need, apply that principle to all things in life, the only thing we need is to belong, whether that’s in a relationship or a close circle of friends. Do I agree with the question no, please don’t give up on good men or good women, they are the majority, the bad of both sexes are the minority but technology gives them a loud voice.
I’m old enough to remember what I believed would be my perfect partner and laugh at my younger self, my wife of 30 years is perfectly imperfect. Occasionally put the tech down be open and meet people in the real world, it can be fun, painful, embarrassing but rewarding, put that perfect image away and enjoy life.

[HawkPerception]

I appreciate you taking the time to watch it, and I appreciate the words of wisdom as well.

[WhitneySnow]

I’m not going to watch it but most guys are not walking away from relationships. More accurately, they’re not telling women they’re walking away from relationships. Even if what they really want is to hook up till they’re at least thirty (and a lot longer than that for some guys), they’re still telling the girl there’s at least a chance they might get into a relationship with her. And a good number of them are getting into relationships and then cheating anyway.

Sorry if that came off as a rant.

[WhitneySnow]

I watched the first couple minutes and no, I don’t agree with her. The problem is that guys pretend to want commitment and really don’t, at least not guys of my generation and like ten years older. And even older guys frequently cheat or try to play the same games that younger guys do. There are a few guys who genuinely want a committed faithful relationship, but there aren’t a lot of them, especially in my age group. I’ve been lucky enough to find one, but a lot of my friends haven’t.

[aquamint]

I completely agree with what you saying and I view it exactly the same.
But with the add on that a lot of guys (at least from what I’ve read and hear) is that they are leaving relationship on top of what you’ve said because of sex. Because they aren’t getting it frequently enough, and to quote what I’ve heard “we haven’t had a lot of sex and it’s embarrassing hearing that you guys are having it almost twice a day”. Many of these guys watch so much porn that they believe that all women can go round after round and want it every single day, when half of the time that isn’t the cause and they get let down and feel like there partner doesn’t want them anymore because they aren’t like what they watch or what they hear from there friends. Which is sad because 6/10 times they’re letting go of a good girl who actually wants to be with them just because of the “lack of sex” that they receive. Which I wouldn’t consider 3-4 times a week as a lack, but to some guys it is.

[dwreborn]

No iam currently going through separation after 25 years together and still get along great sex is great we talk laugh but we both have gone through mid life crisis my is done but basically was hanging out with a new friend I made and she got super jealous and that friendship is over she forgave me all is good but now she is doing the same exact thing and now she's unsure and really don't seem to want to fix the issues she has I don't want to give up I want to fight for this marriage women seem like they want to just give up more then men

[Billlewis]

As a longtime member of the dating pool, one of the main reasons guys are becoming disillusioned with women, in my opinion, is because oftentimes, when a woman finds her ideal guy, she still won't commit, but instead wants to 'keep shopping' while stringing him along, until, of course, he inevitably falls for her, whereupon she will break up with him, saying she feels pressured.

[Zack-Bann]

I didn’t watch it but I can safely disagree


Men who “walk away from dating” altogether are pussies who only hurt themselves in the end


And I say this with love.


Tune out the noise. The whys and why nots.
Just do what makes you happy


And don’t be so afraid to let the right people in.


There’s no virtue in shutting the world out

[mysteriousNicholas]

hawkperception I've also walked away as I'm almost pushing 32 and I feel like "sex is a 20s something's game, not a 30s person's game" lol and I guess time just got away from me outside of my control control freak personality
Covid also happened, the recessions of 2008 and 2020.
Etc etc - I don't make the rules here and I wasn't writing the script 😋☺️🙏

[queenofcardio]

No. Some of what's said doesn't make sense to me

[HawkPerception]

What stuff doesn't make sense?

[AngryCarl2]

That's some weak AI slop. I'm not saying it's untrue, but it's definitely TL;DW.

[stayorgo]

Well women is looking to mirror you literally have been doing everything wrong
. RECOGNIZE FIX IT DO BETTER

[jonah777]

I find it more accurate that woman might be walking away but its a interesting topic because I see both sides blaming the other.

Guys
