I’ve blown too much time and money and have realized it’s not worth it.
Maybe one day I’ll run into ms right on accident, but until then ….dating just ain’t worth it.
I gave it a shot in August and September, glad it only took me to 6 weeks figure it out and stopped in October
I went on anywhere from 10-15 dates/hangouts for drinks, actiivities, not just boring dinners. These girls were attractive, but not instagram models, just regular women, not like all going for perfect body, etc;, you get my point. This is in BR mostly, but went to Lafayette, New Orleans, and MS once. One had severe daddy issues, she was 30, her ex was 55. One said, unless somebody is amazing, and can add something to my life I'm not settling (mentioned staying at home with cats and being happy) One was ok, couldn't get a read, canceled the 2nd date, wasn't sure if was going to drain my bank account, didn't want it to keep going. I was surprised, I'm like, Houston and Dallas sure, tons of numbers there. But I was flat out shocked at the number of single divorced girls just in Baton Rouge. I underrated the numbers. But it's the same old thing, over and over again. One, she's like almost 15 years older, age difference is too much, she's like 55,really gorgeous, we met anyway. We hangout, just friends, her stories are hilarious and the problems women are having
Unless Kirk Herbsreit shows up with a billion dollars, 99% of women aren't picking one guy to get serious with.

Nope. I can get dates no problem.
Problem is when you are smart, finding single checks who have brains and are halfway decent looking is hard. The smart ones usually taken.

It’s no picnic for women either. I’ve been divorced for 10 years. I tried the dating sites and it seems like everyone wants someone way younger or someone without kids.

Basic supply and demand. No shortage of 35+ with kids. A lot of perceived baggage there

One thing I've figured out is that many American women believe their social value is much higher than it actually is. I'll tell you something I've figured out to be absolute fact based on my own life experiences and knowing and watching others.
Males are not dependent on female companionship like they were years ago. They have your attitude OP. There is a lot of other ways to find happiness, and when you wanna drain your balls there's endless free porn to watch which looks a lot better than some naggin' live-in female.
There is an element of males out there that can't survive without a female and they will go to the bottom of the barrel if they have to. 50 years ago this was normal. They may be pussy wooped and get treated like shite by someone you'd never expect them to be with at all, but good husbands. The not too "picky" type. But the value inflated females are overlooking these guys. "Uh well everything is great about him except he doesn't make near enough money", etc. They'll always have a stupid excuse in their head. Guys that are more patient and have a lot of options don't want to settle down anymore. They may think they do, but find out shortly in to a marriage they were wrong. A fresh face fresh set of tits and arse doesn't get boring like eating the same sandwich over and over. But this is what the over valued female hasn't realized. So they make themselves and everyone else miserable.
Online dating needs to be forgot unless you're the bottom of barrel guy. Most that crap isn't even active profiles.

Good post. It's becoming impossible to please woman, and there's not enough men out there that check all their boxes. I'm really glad I'm married. I would not want to go back out into the dating world. I feel kinda bad for young people.

Neil deGrasse Tyson was on Rogan (I think) talking about Mars colonization a few years back. I can’t remember specifics except that he was in agreement that humans should go. However, the idea that we’ll have to in the future because we’ve ruined the earth is stupid. Basically said, “whatever it takes to make Mars livable is always going to be harder than fixing whatever dumb thing we’ve done to the earth”.
This is exactly how I feel about my marriage when I read threads like these.

As opposed to the fat alcoholic losers that get on a message board and complain about not being about to get any pussy.
This, now weekly, thread is fricking pathetic

Mingo please tell us about your fat little girlfriend

It is a weekly thread but I think it is indicative of how society has changed. It is tough for me to assume someone is just a fat slob with no evidence. Also, those seem to find another fat slob just fine

Got divorced after a 17 marriage with 3 kids. Played the dating game, which was an absolute shite-show, for a few years, then got remarried. She passed from cancer last Sunday. I'm not wading back into that cesspool again. A few years down the road I "might" do a situationship type thing, but I never want to share my living space with a woman again.

If you are dating and on the process of humping, she’ll record it and putt it on fadcebook or Snapchat or TikTok.
None are trustworthy.

So if you average three relationships at 8 months each, that means that you have had two full years of relationships while being divorced less than 4 years. What are you complaining about?

I am convinced the only real love exists between those couples who met when they were young and sort of “grew into each other”.
I when you’ve been going your own way long enough, you cross a point where you can’t merge your personality with someone else’s, unless somebody is just a total doormat.
A better explanation is that people who get together when young don't end up going through the brutality of serial dating that western society obsesses over in the pop culture.
"Dating" was never really meant to ever be what it has become, which is an entire industry and lifestyle that is wholly inadequate in preparing anyone for a healthy marriage. The way dating occurs is the antithesis of actual married life. Originally it was sold as a vetting mechanism for marriage, but that's not remotely true. Now it's a "try em all sample platter" with permanent effects. You don't walk away from dating culture without baggage.
Women have been tricked into essentially damaging themselves under the guise of "empowerment" and a select group of attractive men are all too willing to help them over the edge.
The result is complete chaos for both sexes. Bitter women and lonely men.
Why its almost as if the traditions of the past were very aware of the dangers of allowing men and women in their hormonal prime to run amuck simply following the tummy tingles of the day.
Absolutely no sophisticated society could have ever hoped to exist with any cooperation and stability without control over the sexual marketplace, which was meant to temper the worst of both men and women.
In the modern west, it is considered EVIL not to allow even a preteen to engage in self destruction to their hearts content.
