Why is GAG filled with people who can't find successful relationships?

I think it just seems that way because this is a pretty small community of people discussing one of the main topics of this site, which is to better understand the opposite sex at some capacity, whether that’s navigating a current relationship or trying to get one in general. Meanwhile other platforms like Reddit, discuss these topics amongst a multitude of others, with thousands interacting with each one. Building a space around the idea of “girls asking guys” means that’s the majority of what you’re going to get, so it may seem like an influx of people having unsuccessful relationships vs this topic amongst so many others.

Those who are single and miserable make a great noise - "woe is me!" - and tell the world about their pathetic plight.

Some of us are quite happily settled into long term relationships, but we don't make much noise about it.

Are you making assumptions based on the evel of noise that you hear?

Women: because they're not even looking for them. I mean, she'll tell you she is. But everything she does is counter to that end.

Men: because they do not want to date a fat or ugly woman. Because men only want to put in a certain amount of effort (as most men know most women are ONLY in it for the attention). Because men only want to put so much effort forth in attracting women (and men are partially vindicated in doing this)

Hope this helps you.

Try to remember this site may be intended for the genders to help eachother, but that is not what it is used for largely. It's mainly used for griping, venting and trolling the opposite gender.

You can create a 100 of tgese sites. But you cannot fix the inclinations of the internet (which has no conscience) or the broken people on it that do not even have the self reflection to understand how toxic they are and the bulk of their problem.

women ARE looking for men. It's just not the attractive, young ones who are bombarded with attention on a daily basis. The fact is... if you are not young, thin and pretty, you will be invisible to men.

You misunderstood what i said. When i say women are not looking for men i meant that like men she is looking for what she's looking for in the package she looking for it. If he can pull a 1000 women he's probably not interested in her. At least not exclusively. But that generally does not stop her from pursuing him.😆 Ergo, she's looking for a mythical guy. It's like guys wanting a woman who looks, and f***s like a porn star but has a heart of gold.😆 both these guys and girls need to grow up. Some will, some never will. There's a lot on this site that never will.

Now if you're, "not young, thin, and pretty" you're not invisible but like a guy, you're going to have to WORK for it a little. A lot of these women do not want to do that. And i get that. But that doesn't change the REALITY of their situation. I was not attracted to my wife when i first met her. And if she hadn't asked me out i don't know that i'd ever have dated her, let alone married her. But 25 years later i know i got an absolute gem.

I'm a woman who is actively looking for a man. I can tell you that there are plenty of women who are looking for boyfriends. My best friend met her boyfriend on the street where she asked for his number. My other female friend met her boyfriend via a mutual friend at work.

You are just getting the impression that women don't want men because you are going for girls way out of your league and want nothing to do with you. Girls who are young, immature, not serious about dating, who just want to play around.

[Opinion Owner]

Hun i'm married. I'm not going for any woman. I think my wife would have a problem with that.😆 Nice try though.👍
And no it's the opposite. Most women are chasing men they have no hope in hell of ever getting. He's not interested in anything but a f***. And even if she gets him she's going to have to share him. Which she might tolerate at first. But probably it'll eat her up at some point.
I'm just telling you even though you're fat and ugly doesn't mean it's over for you👍 You're just going to have to work a little harder is all

@opinion owner

Married doesn't change a thing. The truth is... the only reason why men complain they can't ever find anyone is because they're going for the top 10% of all women. If you want someone, lower your standards and date within your own league.

[Asker]

Your wife married a loser. That's all I can say. Some nasty immoral ass who goes around the internet, throwing tantrums, calling all women fat and ugly when he doesn't get his way

[Opinion Owner]

I didn't call you fat and ugly, you did. I just referenced it. For all i know you could be one of these whackjobs on here who are actually attractive and call themselves fat because they want to lose 5 vanity lbs. And what way did i not get? You asked a question and i just answered it. It's funny how you accuse men though of what your gender OVERWHELMINGLY does. And as far as my goes. She happy. How about you? Clearly not.😆

@opinion owner

crazies never realize how crazy they are because they have no idea what being sane is like.

you sound like you just came out of a kindergarten classroom filled with rage cuz your teacher didn't let you play in the toilet.

nobody cares what your answer is if you're an immature piece of shit from kindergarten.

[Asker]

seeing the immature pathetic way that you are, i have pretty low expectations for your wife too. No offense but she must be a special type of immature to want to marry someone like you.

you don't even sound like an adult at 45+.

[Opinion Owner]

Coming from an anonymous pink i'll take that as a compliment. I read that to her and she just laughed.👍

It's just the nature of the internet; sites like this tend to attract people who are looking for advice about relationships, among other things. It's natural to find many people here that are in similar situations.

There are plenty of people here who are in happy, committed relationships, though. It just doesn't seem that way, specifically because those people have no reason to ask those types of questions, and so you would never know.

[Anonymous]

I think it's one or two people posting constantly under multiple accounts. There's one person who, for every Sex question, comes on and says, “I've never had sex.” I suspect that's the same person who posts many of these, “I can't find a relationship” questions. Well you're not going to find a relationship or sex sitting online complaining about it.

[Anonymous]

Platforms like GirlsAskGuys (GAG) are heavily populated by singles seeking relationship advice because they primarily function as open, anonymous Q&A forums. This anonymity attracts people who are actively struggling or frustrated, creating a skewed community where users primarily share negative experiences rather than successful ones.

[Nikki1989]

It is not. There are many women here that are in happy relationships. Just because a few spineless anonymous trolls who failed miserably at relationships think they know it all means jack shit.

Welcome to the new generation of the world what does actually work?

[DirtyOldMan777]
