Polls: Dating

Ghosting in dating is an unfortunate common issue. Although flaky people have always existed the advent of digital technology has enabled people to indulge in their cowardice/insecurities even more so.

Anyway this started with women ghosting men in romantic scenarios, then more men started ghosting women, then women now ghost their friends and I wonder if guys will start ghosting their buddies more.

I have had it happen once but i know my former buddy was dealing with some very serious marital problems. I guess things got real ugly (he has a kid) and he doesn’t want me to see what he has become. I was friends with him and his wife for a very long time.

But as for guys it still does go against the bro code to do that. But who knows? But there is poll data that women ghost more

The journalist tries to justify this behavior as women are “raised to please men and do not want to hurt them with confrontation”.

However I completely disagree with that theory. If a women understands men she will know we care about being RESPECT. And ghosting is very insulting. 95%+ she ghosts out of selfish cowardice.

But now more guys are doing this crap. I just hired a web designer for a minor project recently and he had gone MIA on me despite being very dependable on earlier on several projects.

I would like to believe that maybe something came up in his life. But it’s been over two weeks now and I was depending on him. Something tells me he changed his mind about an agreed upon project and decided to bail.

10 years ago this would almost never happen.

Like you gotta be attractive physically as a guy. Otherwise you’ll get no one

Just curious

Why would a beautiful woman date an average man, who makes 2000 dollars or less a month?

I mean rich men can very easily woo women. Much easier than average men or men, who make 2000 dollars or less.

OK, fair deal, money doesn't actually buy personality. However when a rich man and an average man are good guys with good personalities, can you guess who will the beautiful girls go after and date?

Wondering if I should try dating more mediocre (yet good personality) women. I do not have unrealistic expectations. Most women see me as a 7 or 8 physically looking relative for my age. Should I give a few 6s a chance? There are a lot of them out there.

My reasoning for that is that girls are physically weaker so if they initiate touch first it’s “safer” to do so.

if a girl ever tried to physically harass a guy, the guy can just tackle her away.

Thanks! I fully understand height is a preference and is not the same for everyone. A lot of guys like shorter. I like taller but honestly. It’s what’s in the heart that matters.

I am somewhere in the ballpark of average give or take. But I will go first. I do like women taller then me. Can’t explain it. Just does something to me.
