re: Is Dating in 2017 & Beyond A Dying Mentality?

The problem is that slamming randoms loses its appeal after a while. Eventually, you start wanting that deeper emotional connection, but dating in 2017 is a f&%king minefield. The thing is that technology has convinced all of the 4's that they're 8's, and all the 6's that they're 10's.
However, while most people's standards for themselves have gone kaput (being physically healthy, not being a terrible human being, having any redeeming skills whatsoever, etc) they all will accept nothing less than their deluded expectations (the 6's only want 10's).
This means that if you are an 8 or above, life is good. You have your pick of the litter, granted that physical attractiveness aside, 99% of those you pick from will still have almost no redeeming personality traits, interests, or skills, but you have an endless supply of them. You can just keep catching and releasing until you find one worth a damn.
However, if you're not an 8 (like me), if you suck at flirting, you're not wealthy, you're overweight, or you don't live in a major city with lots of singles, you're utterly f&%ked. The women on your level think they can do better. The ones that will settle for you either already have kids, emotional baggage, or are looking to trap you for money.
Let's face it. We're a sh&tty society filled with terrible, self-absorbed, delusional people with inflated self-worths crippled with the emotional issues commensurate with grappling the reality that their self worth out-paces their societal value. By demeaning home skills like sewing and cooking, eliminating the social stigma of promiscuity, promoting instant gratification and low impulse control, and indoctrinating young women that their value is detached from their sexuality, we have created a generation of women who give up their main valued asset freely while bringing literally nothing else to the table. By tricking young women into thinking those skills were worthless and that their minds are what is important while filling those minds with pop culture garbage and trash TV, young women have become largely worthless. Most have nothing of interest to say, they don't read, they don't contribute to society in any way, they have no skills, they have no concern for anyone but themselves, and basically offer nothing but their bodies, which they give up on the first date. Don't worry girls, the guys aren't much better.
Basically, the moral of this rant is:
Unless you're an IRL 8, being single is absolutely miserable.
Unless you hit the jackpot and find a partner with something more to offer than a recap of this week's "Bachelor in Paradise" drama or endless social media selfies, hold onto her if you can.
Granted, marriage (read no fault divorce) is a total screw job for men. In fact 90% of divorces are initiated by women in marriages where both partners have a college degree. Educated men with careers get butchered, even when their wives are wealthier, even when there's no infidelity, even when they're great fathers.
I guess the central thesis of this rambling post is:
1. focus on self improvement. If you can learn a skill or get healthier and go from a 6 to an 8, do it.
2. If you're not at least an 8, slaying randoms is not the "single life" you'll be enjoying.
3. Slaying randoms gets really old after a while.
4. When you find a deeper connection, cherish it.
5. Marriage is a raw deal for men because women are fickle and divorce gives them added incentive to rape your wallet and well-being.

its def a big issue and like you said: todays men are not much better
regardless of all that, and the risks involved with marriage, i just sense a societal trend that people will just avoid relationships altogether.
i guess we already see it in some form with the decline of marriage.
