Why doesn't Gen-Z date anymore?

Question

@donalddarko i typed out a reply to you but it's too long and needs to be a separste opinion.

Hell no. Robots that breed are an extension and ultimate goal of the why the torment started. Samw reason vaccine shit and the whole profit driven cruelty exists.

What we need is more soul. Not less. People have broken souls. Most people react their emotions in their body. If they get angry they scream and punch. A significant other portion intellectualize and turn paranoid, calm on the outside when arguing but their bodies are rigid as hell. And definitely less than 5% have healthy souls, probably less than 1% of 5% actually know what their souls are doing.

We need to feel the truth, not just think about it. The thinking intellect is a perversion machine, it will turn everything greedy no matter how good it wants. The heart (the 4th chakra, not the 2nd "romance" chakra) is not a slave to the darkness though.

It's the reason people noticed that women like men who care for their dogs. Yes it does happen, and no, deliberate "I'll spend my life savings on the dog" (or a less exaggerated form of it) does not do anything, it only makes more darkness.

I mean sure some are dumb enough to think that if he provides for the dog then he has resources and can provide for a woman's lazy comfort but that is also stupid because dogs are not expensive to keep and by default it doesn't guarantee he cares about the dog with his heart.

The real mechanism dog owners are more attractive is they're sometimes more in touch with their souls. When a dog jumps and scratches, i don't think "annoying beast tries to get me to do what it wants". I think "this is its language, it does its best to talk to me".

There is a sense of communication without which even the best choice of words would feel cold.

Yes i am saying it all boils down to feelings and empathy but 99% of libtards also don't get it. Their empathy is a disgusting weaponized intellectual description of events rather than anything that awakens the clairvoyant etheric heart. Their empathy is freudian, like the the 2 hugest (pun intended, they are heavy) homophobe-attackers on this site have themselves called others gay. Why? Because they do notbhave real empathy for gays, they have rationalized their hearts into ice and compensate by acting all warm until their freud machine shows the so-called "true colors".

It is satanism on both sides. Suppressing the heart and letting the perverted freud machine triumph, under the guise of being rational and good intentions. You do the same when you talk about robots. And we all then find a library full of proofs that our way is the best way and it is all scientific and convincing but in the end, someone with a heart sees that it is wrong.

People need to feel. The sorrow and the terror the most. Not run away and scream, not intellectualize, but feel in their soul.

The reason there exist humiliation rituals and terror practices is to desensitize us and kill our hearts. 100% all of us are put through huniliation and terror experiences whether intentionally or not, and our hearts are cold the moment we can look at horror and not curl up inside. We think it is strength, but it is satanic to stop caring. And no, intellectual "i will look at it without shivering and do what i logically conclude" is not going to work. It is still heartless and conveniently will accidentally make you perpetuate suffering. You'll either call it bad luck or fate.

Gen Z dating is struggling partly because young men and women are moving in very different social and political directions.

Many young women are prioritizing career independence, progressive politics, feminism, abortion rights, and personal autonomy. Many young men are becoming more conservative, religious, skeptical of feminism, and more interested in traditional family roles.

That creates a serious compatibility problem. Politics is no longer just politics; people treat it as a reflection of morals, values, gender expectations, marriage, children, and lifestyle.

Dating apps and social media make it worse by turning people into products while feeding both sexes completely different narratives about each other.

So dating is not “dead” because people suddenly stopped wanting love. It is struggling because trust, shared values, commitment, and mutual expectations between men and women have badly fractured.

Bc they’re busy labeling and relabeling everything and everyone. The guys are busy whining that the gals their age are nuts… and the girls are busy whining that the guys their generation are nuts… and both date predatory morons old enough to be their parents.

Prognosis? The generation has massive mommy/daddy issues and think the other half is nuts bc they are… both… nuts.

Says who? Some moronic people on a YouTube video? I know many Gen-Z people that are dating or have dated, including myself. I dated non-stop for 10 years before meeting my husband.

Chazmatazz269 · Answer

There’s no sense in it for men. Dating is just courtship leading up to marriage. There’s absolutely no benefit to marriage for men.

fluffydevilxx · Answer

The main reason is that modern life has become optimized for comfort but not for intimacy.

Algorithms reduce uncertainty.

Food arrives without conversation.

Entertainment streams endlessly.

Friendships happen through group chats.

AI can even simulate companionship.

But love has never been optimized. Love requires awkward silences, rejection, vulnerability, misunderstanding, forgiveness, and patience. It asks us to enter a space where there are no guarantees. In an age that promises control over almost everything, romance remains gloriously uncontrollable. Ironically, Gen Z doesn’t seem to want less love. Many are actually rejecting superficial dating in favor of something more genuine. They report fatigue with ghosting, “situationships,” and endless swiping, while expressing a preference for honesty, emotional clarity, and meeting people through shared interests rather than algorithms.

So perhaps the real story isn’t that Gen Z has given up on dating. It’s that they’ve become deeply skeptical of the systems we’ve built around it. And maybe that’s not a sign that romance is dying. Maybe it’s a sign that people are still searching for something technology has never been able to manufacture: the quiet certainty that another human being has chosen you, not because an algorithm predicted compatibility, but because, against all probability, they simply wanted to know YOU.

Why would a young woman want to date a "corn" and video game addicted boy who thinks he deserves applause for being able to name his own emotions and clean up his own dishes (sometimes).

Most young men simply put do not have relational skills. They make jokes that they have activity buddies they've known for decades but don't know anything about them outside of that. They do not understand that people can needs that are different than theirs and hold space to validate them... Every girl knows guys need to let off testosterone via working out or jerking off, but for some reason boys will invalidate a girl because she's on her period and subject to her "hormones."

Thinking back on dating when I was in my early 20s, many boys DO NOT LIKE their girlfriends. They are attracted to her, they like her style, maybe she does useful things for him. They genuinely they want physical affection and do not care to hold space for her thoughts/feelings beyond what is easy for them. If he's working overtime or hates his life, the time he holds plummets even further.

Of course, if she's his dream girl and he genuinely likes her, then things will go smoothly. He'll want to make her life better... he'll stop wallowing in how hard his day was and think about hers too. Maybe he'll stop complaining over dinner and be really appreciative that he's doing and learning about life with her. It is crazy how simple this is, and it's too bad women get stuck expecting anything less.

Zack-Bann · Answer

I’ll give you general rule to follow.
Anything you hear about Gen Z told by a grandpa is false and misleading

We are dating just fine.

We also happen to be the greatest generation in modern history, tech savvy, creative, AND social.
We don’t have the same hangups the millennials had
We don’t have the same narrow minds that define boomers
We do rebellion way better than Gen X ever did.

So the media is overloaded with hit pieces on us.
Claiming we don’t date. Don’t sleep. Have short memories. Bla bla bla.
It’s all false

capriVib · Answer

Because this generation is more antisocial and passive. What do you expect from a generation that tries to date mainly through Instagram, Tinder, and other social media platforms?

Static_In_The_Attic · Answer

Nowadays it’s all about APPS & the only thing I can think of is that some Gen-Zers haven’t downloaded the dating app that automatically destroys their phones forcing them to return to reality.

Just_Ken · Answer

Many reasons. One is that Gen Z women have priced themselves out of the market.

First date should be a coffee, ice cream, slice of pizza, a walk and a talk etc. Not a $500 meal where they guy has also paid for your hair, nails and makeup

DonaldDarko · Answer

They got wise to what the whole thing is about is my guess. It's not love and romance it's reproduction. If it was anthing real there wouldn't be so much divorce and cheating. Also the courts are stacked against men and gen Z knows it. We need artificial wombs in huge factories breeding thousands. Let robots raise them.

LiamJHayden · Answer

Lack of socialization. Radicalization on opposite ends of the spectrum. Online porn. A lot of guys have pretty much no ambition, and women with masters or doctorates are generally not going to date guys working the night shift at Del Taco. Failure to launch. The list goes on an on.

YollyM · Answer

Dating and relationships have turned into a weird cult. Everyone wants to be put on a pedestal but not willing to do the same for their partner so it never works. Main character syndrome.

Anonymous · Answer

I can't believe no one else seems to have said this but MONEY MONEY MONEY!!! 💵💵💵

Dating can be really expensive and today things cost more than ever and people are more broke than ever.

Kinda hard to date when you can barely afford anything to eat and can't pay for AC because it costs too much electricity.

Most of Gen-Z either live in a tiny shitty apartment or with their parents or in a college dorm if they're in college.

MrChinaski · Answer

Because it is scary to risk asking someone out and being told no when they have spent their childhoods never being told no to anything, by anyone, ever.

lightbulb27 · Answer

I see young people dating even at early ages like 16 through 20. Your mileage may vary.

I didn't date until much older than that and that was decades ago.

So be an individual...

most girls want to date someone.

Agape93 · Answer

Because they have no idea how to work a relationship, how to live in the moment while planning for a future.

SeekerOfTruth007 · Answer

Dating has been dead for 25+ years. When a man approaches a woman and propositions her, if she rejects him, she can do anything at all to him, including falsely accuse him of a crime. The man risks everything. the woman loses nothing.

Mark_Est · Answer

Why should the men date? Who exactly?

Some modern women? Who are std farmers with bodycounts like 1800s sex workers.

Men aren't cucks, men only date virgins. There are no magic numbers or cooldown periods.

The illusion of social media is that people post their lives as being all great, other factors: toxic brain-rotting reality shows, bad influence of friends, p0rn addiction for guys, satanic music that society has normalized, people not getting over their trauma

MUSICTOKU099125 · Answer

Because nobody’s ever interested in me. 26 years old and no girl has ever been interested in me. I think it’s probably because i’m short, have medical conditions. etc. People are superficial nowadays. So love doesn’t exist nowadays
