Is dating a total nightmare right now?

And I am not talking about shallow physical threats like eye color, height, jawline, muscles etc...if you can hold conversations have good hobbies besides watching sports and drinking beer you are automatically in the top 10% yes the bar is that low. Now if you are looking for an 21 year old chick thats a different story you need 6 packs

How's spinsterhood treating you?

A lot of young adulthood is a nightmare right now. Not supriaed that these stressors spill over into the dating world.

I agree that the apps are really killing the dating scene. My friends who primarily dated before the apps became the default for dating had much better experiences than my friends who are using the apps now. While they can definitely work, my sister met her husband on a dating app, it seems like they have gamified dating to the point that people date for sport and can’t give it up.

Boys in their 20s have still approached me. I'm 42 but appear younger and I am attractive .

I believe you believe it.

There’s one of these on every thread. I will share that I turn 42 next week and I look like a wreck. The only thing going for me is I’m thin but that is probably making my face worse.

You probably look better than the 42 years old woman who said she was approached by an 18 years old kid

Where on earth are you getting approached by a high school student?! Not doubting that teen boys are checking out every woman that walks by but these kids are really out there at like the neighborhood pool asking out the hot moms? Are you frequenting under 21 clubs? What’s the deal here?

Apps haven't killed the dating scene. Women's poor behavior has killed the dating scene.

NP. What strange assertion to make... because women are never allowed or supposed to be aware of their own attractiveness or sexual power?

Do you have or know older teens? Are you in your 40s (or have friends in their early 40s)? The scenario is so unbelievable that I think PP is saying that poster is a troll.

Why is it so unbelievable? Tiktok is going crazy over Nicola Coughlin ATM because no one can believe she's in her late 30s. There are plenty of people who look younger than their age, just as some look older. Why is that so crazy?

lol, ok, but I am back here in the real world. (And now we’’ve shifted back from 42 to 37. Ok.)

Yeah that is not a big difference. The difference is I am not white, I have good genetics, I have no white hair, I'm thin with curves. The new miss texas candidate is 70 and is hot and excellent looking. She's been taking care of her body since her 20s. It can happen people

lol…

A majority of women on the dating market aren’t doing that and it shows.

Don’t care if you “don’t look your age”, reality is you do. It’s shows.

Men value looks. It’s like the top thing. Then it’s are you nice and sweet. No man has ever wanted an older woman over a hot younger woman. I mean if you’re in your upper 30s to 45 you’re still in the f*ckzone doe most guys. FWBs at best. Even as a guy in their 40s I still always date younger because I can. I’ll hook up with women in their 40s but won’t be exclusive.

Pp here. I honestly wouldn't date a 40 something yr old bachelor who is misogynistic like you are. Who wants an immature 40 something man who is probably wrinkled and sagging? As for me I'm thankful for genetics and health to keep me looking good but I have always dated younger hotter men and turned down a few proposals. My current wants to marry me too and even wants kids. He's young hot and hung lol

Sure, Jan.

Can you elaborate? I know women are ultimately to blame for everything- but how’d we ruin dating?

Not PP, but I'd assume the incel means women having opinions, hobbies that aren't serving a man, speaking their mind, speaking at all...

Evolution made women hypergamous. That doesn't make women evil, it's just their nature. Women are the gatekeepers for sex. Where women are allowed choice, they'll choose to sleep with the high value man every single time. Men are the gatekeepers of relationships. Ergo, those high value men will gladly pump and dump without a second thought. Unfortunately, the apps make it all too easy to engage in this bad behavior.

Women don't benefit from being used and most men don't value by being frozen out of the dating market. The high value guys, however, are loving life, even if it is a soulless existence of bouncing from one woman to the next. Civilization used to have rules to create better outcomes for the people. Unfortunately, folks thought they were smarter and could create progress by ignoring those new rules. Of course, the progress has been illusory and led to lower satisfaction, especially for women.

Never forget that women were happier in 1970 before all the progress of feminism.

She's so amazing that she can't attract a guy she thinks is good enough to marry. What a complete self-own of a post.

By your logic, it sounds like it's the high value men to blame, instead of women.

I think “which fork to use” is an old metaphor for good manners and etiquette in general. I’ve had a few dates where the guys were clueless about good manners.
