    My wife passed away recently after a 30 year marriage. We did these things that helped keep our marriage strong was first and foremost we respected each. When we had arguments we never resorted to calling each other derogatory names and we always sat down and apologized which leads to my next point. Always say “I love you” throughout the day whether you’re in the phone hanging up or just to say it out of the blue. I always kissed my wife goodbye regardless I was leaving for a week or going to the store. You never know when that last kiss will be. Finally we always took care of each other. I would put her needs before mine and I know she did the same for me.

A relationship would be fine, but all I've had were headaches and heartbreaks. I'm opposed to hook up culture, so being alone has given me solace.

    Women would rather ride the carousel in their 20's than look for a husband. When the carousel fun ends women go back to the guys they rejected to get their marriage bailout.
    This happened to me in my late 20's. A bunch of ex's contacted me after years of silence. It was like 5 of them within 2 months time, it was too much to be a coincidence. I had lunch with one and she started asking me how i felt about marriage. It all made sense.
    I will not be suckered into being a bail out of last resort.

    I was married for 35 years to an extraordinary woman. She died from cancer a little over 2 months ago. Every. Single. Morning. for THIRTY FIVE YEARS. She was so excited to see me! She tremendously respected me and I respected her too. Neither one of us was perfect by any means, but we knew how to look past those things and love each other. Now I tried a couple of online dating things, just coffee, and WOW. I can't believe how true the things are that you are saying! My first thought, after living with my dream woman for 35 years, was "why would I want a relationship with you? All you do is talk about how terrible all your exes are and how much you hate men! I don't even want to finish this coffee." Oh my goodness. Maybe she likes canoes and walks on the beach like me, but there aren't enough canoes in the world to make that work. It all seems so incredibly shallow.

Those individuals like to play games but living in a low population area really limits options. Then you add in single moms, doing only fans, and unrealistic standards it’s like being Matt Damon stranded on Mars in the movie The Martian. It’s really funny how women complain about men when men are the ones who have to pursue and approach them. Women are doing the choosing but play it off like things just happen to them like they don’t have anything to do with it.

      I recommend researching 'narcissistic personality disorder' (NPD) / 'cluster-B'; and know that they are the 'root of all evil' (especially 'ESFJ/ESTJ-narcissist'; Myers-Briggs reference, look it up)!
      European 'ESFJ' are the worst personality type, and they are responsible for inventing 'racism' and colonization! It is in their neuro-psychology!!!
      They are extremely 'manipulative' and often use 'looking pretty' to distract others from the witch's mind-games / mind-r@pe, e.g. gaslighting, playing the victim/damsel in distress, creating "flying-monkeys", and 'bribing' others (with money or BJ) to attack, or at times, kill someone for her. When caught, she will use her minions as scapegoats. European ESFJ are notorious for this especially in a racist context, e.g. Emmett Till.
      xSFP and ISFJ (2W1) are the most complicit, narcissistic-enablers. ISFP also tend to be 'oblivious-codependents' (look up the definition). Like ESFJ, XSFP's "feelings 'is' their reality." Most are covert/vulnerable-narcissists.
      ISFJ often perceive things only on the surface level (even by sensor standards), are suckers for a “pretty face", and their neuro-psychology makes them the ideal narcissitic-codependent and pawn to the ESFJ (blind-loyalty, surface level perception, susceptibility to covert-narcissism). Lastly, ISFJ are notorious for impersonating other people's identities IRL and on the internet.

    Im 40 and have decided 3 years ago to be single. And i have never been happier tbh. At first i was put off by the majority of men who treated me badly but im also aware that i played a part in that undoing. I tried to work on myself and blamed myself for years. When i was becoming a better person i was still meeting the wrong kind of men. So i was still doing something wrong i guess cause thats wat ur basically trying to say that its our fault too. Which i agree. In the end after years went by i stopped blaming myself, I stopped blaming men. I began to love myself and accept who i was and i started to enjoy my life on my own, it is an amazing experience! I would never trade the kind of happiness i feel now for anything. Regardless of what we are doing wrong or who was at fault, the important thing is finding happiness on our own journey. We dont need to have someone to be happy as long as you are happy thats all that matters. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being single, it doesnt matter how you got there. What matters is what youve learned along the way and how you feel about it in the end.

      The unfortunate thing about women is that their leveraging power fades as they age. Specifically what men desire in women fades with time. Youth, beauty and purity for example.
      So if a woman chooses a bad partner from the start, she has screwed up. This is why historically the entire family would make an effort to help vet for good partners, because it is that important.
      The more bodies you have as a woman, the less likely you will be taken seriously for marriage.

    I hope more women watch this too because you're spot on. From a man's perspective, I'm 55, I've seen society do a 180 on how men are portrayed. In this age of media and internet, men are constantly shown to be, dumb, irresponsible, sexist, clods who only are redeemed by a woman "fixing" them. Every movie, TV show, etc. portrays men this way. Couple that with the expectation that "good" men must be 6', athletic, really good looking, and able to pay for everything, and women perceive the dating world to be devoid of anyone worthwhile because those men aren't interested in them. I've told more than one woman complaining that there are no good men that they walked right past 100 good men today that would be happy to date them but they weren't "hot" enough to notice. Then throw in the fact that the men who ARE getting dates are the men least likely to want a relationship and are just in it for the sex, because they can, and suddenly all men are dogs and don't want relationships. I'm not sure this will ever get straightened out. We would have to get back to a place where both men and women are valued for the traits that each gender traditionally brings to the table and in this vapid, superficial, world-revolves-around-me society, I don't see it happening.

      Well stated. While I never chose to marry, I've had a number of multi year relationships and every one of these girls (right up into my late 50s), was a good person. I never dealt with all these angry, annoying ladies that I run into here and there. I don't know why I've been so fortunate, but I think some of it is because in nearly every case, someone of value in both of our lives made the introduction. So I always suggest that folks ask trusted friends, family or other acquaintances if they know someone they can introduce you to. Better yet, just be your greatest self. Keep up a good attitude, and be open to introductions. Lots of folks want to hook you up and you probably haven't seemed open to it.

      Very good explanation of what's happening these days. By now, "the science is IN", and now everyone knows how useless and harmful dating apps are, and we now know that feminism has been an immense failure and has ruined entire generations. Liberalism (such as on college and university campuses) is largely at fault for most of society's current disasters, and social media is too, since it is also almost fully implemented and controlled by "group think" liberals. Since technology is still changing and developing, and since it is all run by the very flawed minds of Silicon Valley liberals, I don't see anything improving in society any time soon. Although there are growing bodies of evidence that most people have had it "up to here" with all this upsidedown gender nonsense, race nonsense, equality nonsense, and all the other trending social inanities of our day. I will believe things can get better when I actually see it get better. Right now, things are still getting worse.

      It's one of the reasons I like the movie Bad Teacher with Cameron Diaz (OK, "like" is a strong word... maybe "tolerate" lol).

      Good response. It's what I tend to express in so many words. Everyone wants the treasure chest without without realizing we are never going to having the never ending deepest pockets. The poison that was sold and bought to degrade our society was the thought process that Hollywood and the Fashion industry sold us all. You too, can have the best. Whatever that is. We are NOT the aristocrats that run the world. The chaos is ( their ) psychological doing. The essence of life is what Courtney shares. I can admit that even twice married and betrayed I still believe in a loyal relationship. Loyalty transcends all borders. Any way, I agree with your admission here.

      @@elliotmyers9071 It sounds like you have no research on prenuptial agreements. If you make one single erroneous provision or unfair claim, the whole prenup gets thrown out in court. Most prenups end up getting challenged in bitter divorce cases, and about half get dismissed. Usually because the new lawyer finds a clever escape loophole. If you don't have every loophole covered exactly right, it gets thrown out instantly.
      In Australia they are called Binding Financial Agreements, and you choose to have one as a married couple or as an unmarried couple. If you choose the latter, it gets dismissed if you then get married.

Be honest, respectful, and kind but tell her that if you feel disrespected or unwanted you're out of there, and mean it. If she can't apologize when she's obviously wrong, puts her needs above yours, constantly complains about stupid things and likes to create drama, you're better off without them.

      ISFJ often perceive things only on the surface level (even by sensor standards), are suckers for a “pretty face", and their neuro-psychology makes them the ideal narcissitic-codependent and pawn to the ESFJ (blind-loyalty, surface level perception, susceptibility to covert-narcissism).

I had a date, where the woman walked out of the restaurant 5min after we were seated, because I didn't live in the city, but the suburbs.
    Women refuse to believe that there are decent men who are not top tier, who might be more worth their time than the top tier. It's the feminism belief that women should only have and deserve the best, and the only men who are the best, are the ones in the top tier.
    Meanwhile, guys like me, who are not top tier, but are successful, responsible, and have good lives, are reduced to a level of "2nd class undesirables" to most, if not all women.

    I'm 52 and have been single for about 23 years. I started looking for a relationship 3 years ago but so far all I have found are women that want money, looks, unrealistic sexual expecttions, or material things. I'm 6ft 1in, eat healthy, workout, take care of myself but none of that seem to matter, so as of right now, I'm better off by myself instead of having the drama or materialistic women in my life. I treat women as equals and not trying to trash anyone, I'm simply speaking from the last 3 years of experience. Maybe one day I will find that right person, but until then I will continue to live my life. I can't believe how much people have changed in 23 years and all of the drama that goes on. I just want a drama free life with someone else that just want to be happy and enjoy life. Men want relationships, women just need to get their priorities straight. Men aren't perfect either and have their own issues to deal with. Maybe someday we will be able to all live together in happiness and harmony and get rid of the drama and superficial ideas and wants. MEN DO WANT RELATIONSHIPS! I just don't want someone that has tried out every other guy before they get to me. I have standards, but until women start to have the same types of standards it really don't mean much to me. I don't just sleep with women and move on, I'm looking for something meaningful that will last. I'm too old for stupid childish games and rediculous expectations.

The main one is that they can't be bothered with it, sounds crazy, but's it's true. Many men here are looking for ways out of what is considered traditional types of relationships, many like me work online and can be location independent and are spending more time abroad (mainly South East Asia and South America).

    Courtney, I've watched a ton of your videos as someone that's been a "1 hit wonder" on the dating side and this one really resonated with me as someone that's done a ton of codependency work. It's so easy for people to blame others than to reflect on themselves and social media makes it so easy to share opinions. Opinions aren't facts. Just because someone shares an opinion that you agree with, doesn't make it a fact.
    The only way to truly know what someone wants is to ask them and trust their response. Painting everyone with the same brush is wrong and the world would be a better place if more people realized that. Thank you for being a champion of this!
    You also mentioned the "mirror test" which is awesome. "Would I live up to the standards of what I want to see in a partner and date myself?". If the answer is no, then the next question is, "why would anyone else?"

Courtney Ryan has some very good advice, the kind of things parents should be discussing with children. I think in our modern culture people don't have time to pass on this kind of knowledge. IMO two keys: 1) Every person is an individual, don't over generalize and 2) Use your dating for learning and refine your wants and needs in a partner. Chances are by the time you reach 30 your list of "must haves" for a partner will be entirely different than at age 22.

When caught, she will use her minions as scapegoats. European ESFJ are notorious for this especially in a racist context, e.g. Emmett Till.
      xSFP and ISFJ (2W1) are the most complicit, narcissistic-enablers. ISFP also tend to be 'oblivious-codependents' (look up the definition). Like ESFJ, XSFP's "feelings 'is' their reality." Most are covert/vulnerable-narcissists.
      ISFJ often perceive things only on the surface level (even by sensor standards), are suckers for a “pretty face", and their neuro-psychology makes them the ideal narcissitic-codependent and pawn to the ESFJ (blind-loyalty, surface level perception, susceptibility to covert-narcissism).

    Wow, refreshing video! Underscores the need for each party to understand what their values are and how they would like to be treated (Golden Rule), before they enter into the dating scene. And the bit about projection is, I believe, very accurate. We often apply motives to other people's actions, and these motives are constructed based upon our own personal history. I've been married to the same woman for 26 years and I find that I am becoming an increasingly rare phenomenon. Those 26 years have taught me a lot of things, but chief among them is that the fairytale romance is just that: a fairytale. Sure you'll have romantic memories (my wife and I honeymooned in Paris -- very romantic), but for a relationship to work takes work. If you continue to deceive yourself thinking "Oh it shouldn't be this hard... etc etc" you will jump from partner to partner (maybe a serial monogamist?). It sucks, but life is hard. But it's a little less hard when you're working on it together with your beloved.

    Not all women think or believe like the woman in the Tik Tok video; but, there are some that do, and men do the same too, have similar excuses.
    They can
    A) Blame all others, the universe is wrong, all men are wrong, and I am right.
    Or B) I am making mistakes, going about this wrong, have wrong ideas.
    Guys that that think "All women want a tall, hot man with money, and then divorce him," is a background belief and mindset that is a turn off. This is a self-fulfilling guarantee women won't like the man. This bad outlook will seep out no matter how they try to cover it up. The man has problems. The woman will figure it out.
    So too, women who say "Men don't want relationships..." is a person with a bitter, bad attitude and they will not attract good men. Good men will be repelled by this woman. She is driving good men away. Who would want to be with the woman in the Tik Tok video!?
    Life isn't a meme.
    There is waaaay, way too much simplistic thinking going on with men and women with these outlooks.
    If you are not attracting the right people, the problem is you.

    I actually needed to hear this. I used to be the one Courtney mentioned about hating the opposite sex. After being cheated on by my ex girlfriend, followed by 2 more “situationships” that ended up getting no where and getting me taken advantage of, I not only called it quits on dating, but actively carried resentment towards women for a whole year and made it my personal conviction that women are the problem. Of course, the year long loneliness and the increasing weight that it carried made me realize I was the problem in almost every relationship. It truly came down to how I carried myself, the lack of communication from my part, and the unrealistic expectations I had set that I had to tone back a bit. While it’s extremely difficult for me, I’m re-entering the dating market once again with a positive mindset (somewhat) While I’m careful, I’m still hopeful things will work out for me in the long run.

After all, I think I am a decently attractive guy, and I also have a university education which is something that many guys don't have. I also happen to be autistic which impairs my social skills, and I really wish women could see past that. It's just depressing to me because I'm 27 years old, and I still haven't found my partner. I have only been in one relationship, and that was back when I was in high school, so it's been about a decade now since I've dated.

We went to highschool together (class of 07/08) and she and i were talking about how people are so different from not too long ago. Our parents before us and ourselves never had this type of interaction on social media where people have so many others on the back burner. We also noticed sitting around us the amount of beautiful women at multiple tables within their own parties. we noticed this was not the case in our late teens or early 20s… it was really odd not seeing men at one of these tables. None of them new each other but each table had the same display, beautiful women with Expensive high heels on, burberry purses and super tight leggings and every perfume from Nordstrom you could spray… & God only knows what the F they were sharing with one another ….the only people we noticed on dates was a couple here n there and they were older in their 50s-70s…. These single women were all around 20-45ish….. really fuckin sad. Ladies this cant be the move, even the girl i was with was telling me how bizarre that lifestyle is.. & Let me add, you only see this here in America, I have been to Europe multiple times, and Latin America…. Women do go out in groups but not in volumes where their thoughts are to be Boss Babes…

      A lot of women hate men because they only dated abusive or hugely egotistical men. It's what they're attracted to. Nice guys don't get them excited. They have the luxury in 2023 to date the exciting guys who aren't looking for long term stuff because it's a liability if you don't have the right one. But women also think they can change these guys and it's not right to change people. People should think more about who they are spending their time with. This includes guys who are looking for a mate. Have expectations boundaries on how you want to that person to be in your life but also be realistic and live up to those standards yourself.

I want to get to know someone before I make that kind of commitment. Every day she'd text me a "cosmo" level relationship quiz. My defenses went up fast. I'd never dated someone that was in a relationship from the first date. She had a lot of red flags. She then sent me a breakup message followed by a week of texts apologizing and wanting to get back together. Week ended with a video call of her in tears. First thing in the morning. I ended up blocking her everywhere.
    Oh and the "gay" thing in the video. I had a woman I was dating back in the 90's stop a date right in the middle and said "you don't date a lot...have you ever thought you might be gay?". Um...no...and don't let the door hit you as you leave.

      What's scary is that the "becoming the right person" can screw you over too. It did for me. I was so certain that I would be the weak link in my relationship so I became a guy who earns, cooks, cleans, is emotionally responsive, etc (not perfect but I wanted to be a great partner). Then it still wasn't enough because my ex had no skin in the game because she didn't feel needed and became disengaged. Then she cheated and we divorced. There is a balance of improving yourself (the most important) and having expectations of your partner(secondary). The key is both parties have to have self improvement as the primary and expectations as a secondary (if even secondary) goal. Just my thoughts seeing your comment.

      @@gellister yes, the hard part is knowing what “being the right person” means, especially right now. We are in a transition period where the old, dysfunctional, misogynistic relationship dynamic has been rejected but still has influence over the dating scene and our expectations of relationships and of ourselves. Meanwhile, we are still trying to find a stable and understandable relationship dynamic that is more reflective of two people coming together as equals with respect for each other. It’s confusing, especially for a young person who is trying to come to terms with a dating scene and social dynamics that are in flux at the moment. Add to that a whole lot of grifters making money off young guys by telling them that being an arsehole is a guaranteed way to get the woman they want…
      My advice to everyone is simple: be the best version of yourself, be happy with yourself and every positive relationship you have will flow from that. If there is something you want to change (eg “I wish I knew how to approach and talk to women”) then learn the skills to do that but don’t try to be someone else when doing it.

      They are extremely 'manipulative' and often use 'looking pretty' to distract others from the witch's mind-games / mind-r@pe, e.g. gaslighting, playing the victim/damsel in distress, creating "flying-monkeys", and 'bribing' others (with money or BJ) to attack, or at times, kill someone for her. When caught, she will use her minions as scapegoats. European ESFJ are notorious for this especially in a racist context, e.g. Emmett Till.
      xSFP and ISFJ (2W1) are the most complicit, narcissistic-enablers. ISFP also tend to be 'oblivious-codependents' (look up the definition). Like ESFJ, XSFP's "feelings 'is' their reality." Most are covert/vulnerable-narcissists.
      ISFJ often perceive things only on the surface level (even by sensor standards), are suckers for a “pretty face", and their neuro-psychology makes them the ideal narcissitic-codependent and pawn to the ESFJ (blind-loyalty, surface level perception, susceptibility to covert-narcissism). Lastly, ISFJ are notorious for impersonating other people's identities IRL and on the internet.

    If they are in need for emotional support give them in the way they want , don’t condescend . I was dealing with serious medical issues and I just wanted her to be around me to feel supported , she pretty much scoffed at that idea , I had loved her and her non chalant response stabbed me so deep in heart that I developed so much conflict inside , between love for her and what I saw in her behavior that lacked any empathy for me , or wanting to be there for me , I would have been for her if I was asked by her and she was dealing with what I was and am. I have gotten hurt and skeptical of ever falling in love again

    You can only truly judge someone's character when you're completely vulnerable to them and they know it. If you have to set boundaries to avoid being taken advantage of at great expense for little or no equivalent return, the other person is likely not credible for a mature relationship. If they're capable, they don't take advantage without figuring out or asking in advance if that's harmful to or bothers the other person then weighing how much they really need what they want from them.

    Once again, a great video on unrealistic expectations.
    Side note: I recently decided to quit online dating and switch to real-life encounters on spots and events, where I can meet women with similar interests. I noticed that online dating, despite me considering myself a great guy, was really hurting my confidence. Now, I will not "hate" on those who successfully met a partner through online mediums, I'm happy for them, but nowadays the dating platforms have so much toxicity due to unrealistic expectations, which can damage one's self-image to believe that their not good enough, or only good for one thing only..

    I dated a bad apple, and I can tell you a few things.
    If a woman is promiscuous- Use her and lose her! If you're living with a woman, and you catch her cheating, and she says, "Get Over It!" Well, that's your invitation to go and date as many other women as possible. That happened to me and while I was still in the relationship, I dated as many women as I wanted! I didn't feel guilty and felt no remorse. Every time the girl I was living with fell asleep, I was out with other women. That happened way too often.
    Then it dawned on me - Why am I even with her?!!! A LOT of the other women were much prettier than the girl I was living with. I mean, it got to the point where we were more like roommates more than anything else. Not only that, but I didn't even care if I were to get caught! What was she gonna do, leave me? Oh, no, anything but that! ( Sarcasm : ) She was rude, selfish, insincere, greedy, cold, bitchy, heartless and that was without her knowing of myself sleeping around!
    One day I was watching Joyce Meyer, who's a preacher. What she said was if you want to know if someone loves you for you or for your money, get rid of the money and then see how that person treats you. So I did just that. However, first we went on a shopping spree to get rid of $3,000.00 I had saved up. I owned a business and it was no big deal to go out and earn that money back. So it really was no big deal. The following morning ( after the shopping spree ) I woke up and said, "Glady, I have some bad news! She said what? I said, I'm broke!
    Well, what happened next was truly an eye opening event! To say the least! She bitched and bitched and bitched! What am I even with you for? I have given you the best years of my life! She went on and on and on! This went on for three days straight! Then I finally said, we're moving! I'm going my way and you are going your way! Her response was "Oh, so now you're leaving me too?!!! YEP! I dated her for four years, which seemed like 10! I couldn't wait to get rid of her! Best thing I ever did! Took the trash to the curb! Then went out and celebrated with other ladies.
    That was in 1998! I haven't been in a serious relationship since! Nope! Women are too damn evil these days! They want a man that will do everything for them, and they also want to treat him like sh!t too! No, thanks! I'll pass. Let's just be bed buddies! The funny thing too was after I broke up with her, she kept trying to get back together with me even up to like 3 years after I dumped her! And I wouldn't touch her with a ten-foot pole! The way I finally got rid of her was she had her girlfriend come and try and talk to me about getting back together with her. LOL! I hit on her friend right in front of her! I had never seen two women get into a car and just leave so quick in all my life! My thoughts were after she left, "Oh, just get over it!"
    LOL!
    This is what happens when women use men. What comes around goes around! I have a lot of female friends thanks to Glady!

      ​@@Therighthanddon NOT A KING! Not even close! Believe it or not, the whole experience brought me closer to God! WHAT? Yep! Allow me to explain. You see, when you deal with someone who's like Gladly was, it's like they try to strip away your manhood by doing nasty things. The way I caught her cheat was really weird. I told her I had a dream that she went back and was with her daughter's father, and that he had candles surrounding the bathtub as he was taking a bath and his apartment was completely dark. That's when Gladly confessed that he couldn't pay his electric bill. You see, God entered the equation by giving me that dream.
      Her daughter's father gave her the boot because while they were having sex, stupid Gladly called him by my name! It gets even way crazier than that!
      You see, I found ladies that I could be with but NOT have a relationship with. It was easy sex. It became so much of a problem, it made me a sex addict! I was with women all the time! I was ashamed of myself! So please don't think I'm bragging because I'm not. You see I knew I had a problem when it hit me I was with 3 different women in one day! I started praying to the Lord Jesus/God please help me, I can't stop myself!
      Because I was genuinely sincere, I asked God & Jesus please, I can't live like this. I was exhausted all the time. This addiction was controlling me! Well, God and or Jesus heard my cries because I had a dream that later in real life unfolded before my eyes!
      God and Jesus were proving to me that they ARE REAL! Let that sink in a moment. From that point on ( I still had a problem with the ladies, which seriously has diminished over time ) but my main focus now is on Jesus & God.
      I know this story is NOT what you expected to hear, but it's the TRUTH. You can run around with women left and right, but when you have the spirit of lust within you, You are going to need God and Jesus to help you! Because it will control your life! I know it sounds like a ton of fun. However, when it's controlling you, and you can't turn it off, turn away from it or even fight it, IT MAKES YOU FEEL WEAK!!!! God and Jesus is the ONLY Answer should you walk down this path.
      Please learn from my foolish mistakes and just find yourself just 1 lovely lady.
      I hope this helps everyone who reads it.

    Courtney I want to say I commend you for trying to bridge the gap between men and women. I'm a 44 full time single dad, and a red pill bachelor. Now by my opening statement, as a GUY who has sole custody of his child, I obviously did not procreate with the right person. I gave up on relationships for several reasons, and as a middle aged parent who stands 5ft6 and is not wealthy, you can imagine the percentage of women who would be interested in me. I'm honest, loyal, athletic, and pretty good looking for my age, and I'm amazing with kids. I actually found out about you from my buddy Joker over at better bachelor. And when I hear women say where are all the good men? I think to myself we are in the ghosted/friend zone where they left us. I know I'm not perfect by any means, but I feel most women overlook me for things that are out of my control. ie, I'm not tall, and been struggling to regain being successful after being put through the meat grinder several times. I know there are good women out there, but I've yet to find myself in a relationship with one. I feel it's just not worth trying anymore. Thanks for the vid, and I hope that the superficial expectations modern women have for men produces the outcome it deserves. Nobody cries for us guys, so it's a bit silly to expect us to cry for them!

    I was 27 when I decided to go at it alone… not knowing what was wrong with me decided to go in a different direction. Many women have given me the hint but all it takes it a conversation and their beauty crumbles .
    It turns out that we hve been selecting women for the physical beauty and they get to be whoever they want hence the term “ toxicity “… now I’m 40 now and as a human being barely recognized something within me that it’s worth sharing with another human being too bad Most women feel so shallow and empty .
    What Psychopathic state of mind must a human being be in to demand another human being to adore her ?
    So I finally came to a conclusion I hate the pretty ones and I don’t like the ugly ones … but , I’m still a sucker for femininity.
    You ever get that feeling of being ripped off by a bad deal ; that is how it feels to try and find a girl .to make matters worse in the end they all get fat staying fit it’s like a ball and chain they only do it because or else they get no attention, but as soon as they find “ the One “ A.K.A. “ Simp , they let go off and write it off as : “ well if you truly love me “ .

    Came across this searching for something entirely different while discussing with a friend from another country how the gender roles feel flipped as an American man dating the women here. Explained how many people would put her on a pedestal compared to what options we have locally, and how she's taken for granted because of the culture in middle-eastern backgrounds. She found it hard to believe women would even cheat on men and said it goes against a woman's nature 💀 Told her the dating pool here is terrible and at this point American women might as well be men, how often we get cheated on, the lack of trust/accountability, etc, pretty much everything you said for months before I even found this video. Ended up watching the whole video & sending this to her because it covers pretty much both genders the way I tried to explain to her but in a much more neutral manner. I honestly do think its mostly a cultural thing, social media & hookup culture ruined dating for both genders in America to a point of being damn near irreversible. Most of the women I've been talking to who are actually nice come from different countries, one being Taiwanese & another Moroccan, etc. From what I've heard from all of them, I feel American men would prosper in other countries for dating and happiness, and women from other countries would love & respect American men a million times more than our own women do if they had the opportunities to live here. So many people born and raised here take everything we have for granted, including each other.

    i think a lot of the problem stems from people not really trying to view the person for who they really are behind the face value and loving them for that.
    it's very easy for women to think love is so easy to just pick a great guy but not actually see him for who he really is but only what he gives her.
    i think a bit of the problematic portion of why it is like this, it's because we make shallow connections and don't take the time to get to know one another and like someone more deeply before we jump into bed with someone.
    it's great if you like sex but don't expect to get a fantastic relationship out of it, because as a guy we do not love a woman we just met, we love a woman we know by heart and love her for who she is and how she treats us.
    that's how i see it.

      'ESFJ', 'ESFP', ISFP and ISFJ are a pathogen to humanity, and 'then' Cluster-B (depending on they neuro-personality).
      THEIR "FEELINGS 'IS' THEIR REALITY", THEY ALSO HAVE A MALICIOUS-MIND BY DEFAULT (excluding normal ISFJ). DESPITE HAVING MALICIOUS INTENT THEY ARE ALL EMOTIONALLY-WEAK AND PRONE TO COVERT/VULNERABLE-NARCISSISM.
      ...............................
      Also... To intelligent readers (who do 'not’ have a ‘pathological disregard for rationality and reality').
      I recommend researching 'narcissistic personality disorder' (NPD) / 'cluster-B'; and know that they are the 'root of all evil' (especially 'ESFJ/ESTJ-narcissist'; Myers-Briggs reference, look it up)!
      European 'ESFJ' are the worst personality type, and they are responsible for inventing 'racism' and colonization! It is in their neuro-psychology!!!
      They are extremely 'manipulative' and often use 'looking pretty' to distract others from the witch's mind-games / mind-r@pe, e.g. gaslighting, playing the victim/damsel in distress, creating "flying-monkeys", and 'bribing' others (with money or BJ) to attack, or at times, kill someone for her. When caught, she will use her minions as scapegoats. European ESFJ are notorious for this especially in a racist context, e.g. Emmett Till.
      xSFP and ISFJ (2W1) are the most complicit, narcissistic-enablers. ISFP also tend to be 'oblivious-codependents' (look up the definition). Like ESFJ, XSFP's "feelings 'is' their reality." Most are covert/vulnerable-narcissists.
      ISFJ often perceive things only on the surface level (even by sensor standards), are suckers for a “pretty face", and their neuro-psychology makes them the ideal narcissitic-codependent and pawn to the ESFJ (blind-loyalty, surface level perception, susceptibility to covert-narcissism). Lastly, ISFJ are notorious for impersonating other people's identities IRL and on the internet.
      SUMMARY
      Evil personality: 'ESFJ' (ALL), ESTJ (Cluster-b), ISFJ-2W1 (covert-narc/enabler).
      [Secretly] Evil and narcissist-friendly gunts/flying-monkey: ISFP (ALL), ESFP (ALL), and ISFJ (2W1 enable ESFJ).

      Look past the "pretty appearance" of ESFJ and you will see them for the 'covert-narcissist' they are.
      ESFJ/ISFJ impersonate other people, and are obsessed with controlling them for their own emotional-convenience (especially ESFJ). ISFJ are prone to 'imposter syndrome'. Both of them are "shallow humans". XSFX and unintelligent narcissits are their default pawns, particularly the former.

      Many men now have watched those around them get divorced as women file 85% of all divorces at will. The man gets to end up losing his net worth and paying alimony for years. No man wants that downside risk which he has zero control over. If wifey decides she want to pursue a different cock, and files, will be financially collapsed. Especially if it happens over age 50. No retirement, endless alimony so will need to work second job and wiped out. Smart men wont take that risk since 60% of the time they lose. It is a big gamble. Plus men can get companionship and easy sex on dating apps, lots of variety, date younger and dump the drama of marriage and not risk losing their lifes assets because a woman decides she is tired of you. Divorce happens to even the best couples.No man wants to be collateral damage and end up broke and working until death to pay off the alimony while she has taken the house, assets and is screwing a new guy

      she married a multimillionaire and when she is able to get half, she will most likely divorce him... Nothing '''gold'' about her... Women who are ''gold'' are the above average looking women getting with men strictly based off their personality

    Im 45 w 2 kids and good cordial relationship with my ex. Being thrust into the dating world once again; holy shit!!!! This is crazy now. Nothing but lies and ghosting. Every date is "what can you do for me", no sense of duty, loyalty or even basic caring.

    Girl at this point I know it’s me cause women don’t even give me the time of day. Unless it’s to be they new best guy friend. Witch I don’t get why.
    Some even got the audacity to call me a perfect husband in the same sentence as rejecting me. I have taken so many Ls I don’t even feel it no more cause her actually likening me is the anomaly.
    I love the content I’ll figure my issues out eventually on my path to my best self

      Then you're hanging out with the wrong women. While I don't know your full story there, don't be so quick to blame yourself. While there might be some things you could work on, everyone does, I guarantee it's not ALL on you.

      That's because you are very nice to them. Why are you nice to women?, stop being nice & kind to them.
