Possibly, but then we are grossly overgeneralizing single women in their 30s while treating the exception as the rule for single men in their 30s.
I can get on board with that.

The dysfunction arises from the fact that many average women view themselves as 10s, while average men still view themselves as average.
Now you have a situation where the average male, who in the past would date average females, no longer can do that.

Social media is the absolute worst for this. People don't realize the shite that women post online isn't actually reality. Most of these women who spew their bullshite advice on Facebook have no business coaching anyone on relationships. They're usually grumpy and in shitty relationships themselves and have no control over their own lives.

I find that most divorced men have 0 ability to look internally and realize their own faults and apathy were contributing factors in their divorce.

What I've gathered from this thread is that the posters are almost exclusively mid 40's divorcees with the following charecteristics: overweight at best functioning alcoholics Think any domestic work is "women's work" and they're too good for it sloppy dressers
Mid 40’s: definitely a significant demo on here, but a lot of mid 30’s posters as well. I’m early 30’s personally.
Overweight: probably a healthy amount, but not all. I’m not overweight anymore, but I could definitely be in better shape. I’ve lost a lot of weight lately.
Functioning alcoholics: who in South Louisiana isn’t?
Think that domestic work is “women’s work”: that has not at all been the vibe in this thread. It has been an issue of men already doing those things for themselves and criticizing women who similarly refuse to do those things for themselves out of some sense of entitlement or breaking stereotypes, but only as an excuse for laziness.
Sloppy dressers: most definitely. However, I think men could use a lot more resources on how to dress to attract women than they think. I think most men have little to no understanding of what women are attracted to, hence their flabbergasting over Pete Davison.

Toxic emotional baggage
She had none of those
Well, the emotional baggage is a possibility, but we’ve made it this far, it’s knowing how to handle it. She just had a partying/raver history. I had the partying history. I’m the one that had the kid
But the other kid, there’s no drama from the other side and it’s been a co-parenting deal this entire time. And you couldn’t ask for a better kid. Except now, she just got accepted into CU-Boulder and that’s a hurdle we’re going to have to jump here in the next few months

quote:I assume you are around my age or a little older.
So many naive people think that women are “pure” and don’t frick around like most guys want to do while in their 20s.
I’m 35. Facebook had just become a thing when I was in college and dating apps didn’t even exist yet. If you wanted a relationship, you had to talk to someone in person.
It is INSANELY different nowadays, especially in bigger cities.
In the last 15 years, the culture had shifted massively.
quote:You don’t have to judge anyone for anything.
Me and my wife were both skeezers when we were in our 20s and did our things. I’m supposed to judge her for the same things I did?
Many men do view “easy” women as problematic. It is simple for a woman to have sex. She could walk into a bar and walk out with someone in under 30 mins. It takes effort for a man, which is why women view that as a positive.
Take that for what it is.

Gotta get all that young nonsense out of your system like a purge before you settle. Wife and I have been married going on 14 years now.
That is great.
Let me give you another statistic.
Studies show that women with more than 10 sexual partners in their past get divorced at much higher rates.
Hell, by today’s standards, 10 doesn’t even sound that bad.
What I am saying is that there is a correlation between past actions and future outcomes.

When this large population of men are excluded, it's about much more important things like companionship, love, intimacy, children, etc.
And when they don't have to put time and energy into maintaining a healthy relationship with a wife, or children, or inlaws, they're going to expend that energy somewhere else. It might be something harmless, it might not.
Same goes for women who overrate themselves right out of the dating pool.

As someone that is coming up on 30 years of marriage, this thread is such a dumpster fire. And yes, I got married super young(19)
You are in a different generation.
Another show came up after a show I was watching was over. It was just background noise as I was feeding the dog.
But I heard this girl basically say she moved out if the country because she came from a Christian family and all she was shown was go to school, get married, have kids. But she’s clearly in her 20s and act like tv and the internet didn’t exist.
But anyway that’s the mindset of people now.
You also have these women that basically all they do is travel. I’m not mocking travel, but I’m not dating you just because you happened to be in my city that week. Like get the frick out with that.

If you can't see what the OP is complaining about and how modern Society is encouraging this bad behavior from women, then you are just being obtuse.

How many good and viable relationships have been ruined by female family members, friends, and social media convincing the woman that “something” is wrong?

No wonder they’re happy all the time.
Not really. Their rate of suicide is three time that of straight people. They usually live alone, have numerous one night stands, and have trouble developing meaningful relationships.
LINK
LGBTQ youth were 3.5 times as likely to attempt suicide as their heterosexual peers.
Rates of attempting suicide among trans teens were 5.87 times higher than the average among all teens.
Gay and lesbian youth were 3.71 times more likely to attempt suicide.
Bisexual youth were 3.69 times more likely to attempt suicide than teens who identified as heterosexual.

This is the Female Dating Strategy website:
Female Dating Strategy
It used to be a Sub Reddit, but broke off on its own.
If you have the guts to peruse that site, you will see how so many modern women have become entitled and have unrealistic expectations of themselves and the men they pursue.

It’s also a thing for women to try and catch men noticing them just to try and public shame them as a pervert or sexual harasser.

Of course there are women like that, duh.... But this thread is filled with dudes who definitely gave their best effort to be sloppy assholes to their ex-wives too.
It's comical. It's a bunch of dude's complaining about how men get over generalized while over generalizing women. Look in the mirror, brah.

Married
Go to the gym 5-6 days a week.
Rarely drink, due to alcoholism in the family.
Do my own chores, actually, wife is horrible at them. You’ve changed my view though. Need to get her to do better. Thanks.
My wife likes how I dress.

Think about it this way:
A man wants a woman to help share his burden and make it lighter. A guy who already has a career and a home is already cooking his own meals, cleaning his house, and doing his own laundry. He doesn’t NEED a woman to do any of those things. However, if he dates someone who refuses to do any of those things, that’s not sharing his burden, it’s adding to it.
I absolutely would love to have someone who is willing to cook and clean not because I expect them to do all the work, but because it will help share the load. All of that work must be done by someone, and a marriage should have both partners working together to divvy up responsibilities and resources so that the burden on each is less together than if they were each living alone in different spaces. It’s all about sharing responsibilities and a willingness to work together to accomplish things rather than allowing pride or entitlement to excuse laziness.
Exactly why the first thing I asked her was to define “an equitable partnership”.
