Anon is exaggerating, obviously, but there is a huge social divide between men and women. It's not like back in the old days when there were *written* rules segregating men and women into different spaces, but the unwritten rules of society that people pretend don't exist still enforce this sort of segregation. And this *does* make it harder to have a date. A lot of guys and gals struggle with basic communication with the opposite sex, even after the two of them start dating, because they're socialized so differently that there's a legitimate cultural barrier between the two. It's almost like talking to someone from a different country - minus the language barrier, of course.

The reason people strughle now isn't because of the lack of universal rules Its because people aren't focusing on figuring themselves & their lives out first to even be a person ready to be in a relationship in the first place Being awkward is one thing and if anything its easier than ever to find someone whilst being an awkward person as people now are more open to being their quirky selves making it somewhqt normalized. What I noticed *really* keeps potential partners away more than anything is signs that the person they are on a date with is just not ready to be an adult let alone someone worth being in a relationship with. You need to learn to live by yoirself before you expect to live with someone else A shocking amount of adult people out there aren't fully autonomous people let alone someone a person can rely on... because that's what a relationship is... if I see that you can't handle your own life what makes you think I'd look at that and go "huh, yeah that *is* the quality I am looking for in someone I want to be able to lean on in difficult times..." Don't get me wrong, dating these days sucks but its not for the reason most people think Most of the time its just immature people who shouldn't be dating, trying to date. And yes, this goes for both men & women, a woman with insane & unrealistic standards is just as immature as a man who wants a glorified maid/chore slave... its the same problem at its core.

The secondary issue is that even if people get all that figured out, the "rules of the game" have changed. Women are on high alert in all the spaces that in the past would've been *the place* to meet people. Most guys have picked up on that and don't even try anymore. So now a bunch of social spaces that used to be for mingling are now just separate friends groups not talking to each other.

> people aren't focusing on figuring themselves & their lives out first to even be a person Human mating season is supposed to start pretty early, historically speaking. That's why you're so horny then It's only in modern times we expect people to bury their noses in books way out into their twenties, then spend another decade climbing the corporate ladder -- all so you can *finally* touch a titty when you're like 34 That shit's not natural, but guaranteed somebody's getting rich off it
View on Reddit #73609028

YoungDiscord@reddit

Perhaps purely from a biological standpoint but in reality its more complex than that As humans we have access to higher level thinking than your average animal so you can't just go along with whatever is "natural" anymore For starters its not all about "that titty" - there are different ways to live life all of which are valid, so its not just be born => grow up => fuck => die anymore for us. And that's my point, so many people just focus on that so much its to the point that they neglect other crucial aspects of their life and then are shocked that they aren't seen as a potential partner by anyone Secondly we live in a society - that's a syatem that benefits us by granting us access to a LOT of stuff without us having to do it ourselves. For example: to make a smartphone you first need to mine & refine all the resources for it, then you need to design not only the hardware but also the software for it too, then you need specialist machines to actually make it, then you need a network infrastructure for it to be able to connect to others. That is so much work that not any single person could pull off in a lifetime Buuut because we live in a society you can just go to a store, pay some money and get it all ready and done for you like its no big deal. The cost of being in such a system however is that you are expected to work and contribute in some way to society, and yes that often includes having to bury your nose in books into your 20s to have the expertise to work a specific specialized job. Its either that or you go out into the woods and make your own mud hut to live in. I think people take society for granted these days and don't realize just how much heavy lifting it does for everyone.

I feel like dating habits have literally just fallen so far behind the rate of technological advancement that people have been left behind. It's basically a matter of luck nowadays for young people to end up in a relationship. That young men are having difficulty finding women does not mean that women have it easier. From their perspective there are an enormous amount of sad lonely young women who have a lot of social expectations to have kids, be attractive, etc and not theyre also experiencing the whole career rat race expectations that only men would have been subject to in the past. I think the solution to this is just more mixed spaces, less static gendered hobbies and interests. Ultimately if men are engaging with women in a way that doesnt have romantic expectations, I.e trying to genuinely befriend women, then this problem will be solved, because romance often blossoms from regular friendly time spent with another person (its simple biology).

The world has changed, therefore change your value system and spend time doing the things you like rather than valuing things that are way less achievable. Like in the middle ages chivalry was viewed as the paragon behaviour and values system, now we view it as weird and outdated.

Have you considered 1500 men is too much of a problem to go through? Even if you downsize that to 1%, it's still 15 times more than you can date. You can at best, easy laid as a woman, but that wasn't difficult for women anyways but finding actual romance, yeah, not much better. What are the odds you will bullseye at a 1/1500 chance.

Capnmarvel76@reddit

Honestly, availability of potential partners should be part of the calculus when choosing a university. It's 4 (or so) years of being in a relatively controlled environment, primarily consisting of people of the same age range, having a minimum level of intelligence and competence, with minimal structure or responsibilities and copious amounts of free time. It's a target-rich environment, in other words. If you're not at least making friends/chatting up/networking with members of the opposite sex, you're completely squandering what may be your best opportunity. And before anyone says it, I was an engineering grad, too. Get the fuck out of the engineering building for once, you dweebs.

Internal_Day8004@reddit

I always see this come up, but I find it amusing how specific the very existence of animal shelters can be to country to country. I live in the UK, and animal shelters are not a common thing, most that are, are managed by charities, to a rather limited breadth, they have no lack of volunteers but far too many employees, and although they rarely match the capacity for the demand they have, there isn't actually much of a population of stray animals that exist in the first place. Generally, working at an "animal shelter" here means being on a 6 month volunteering waitlist, all so you can run a hundred different administrative tasks for bosses who seem to make it their job to make sure no animal is adopted.

well I think its reasonable in the sense that I drew and painted alone in my room for years up until I got the idea to start meeting up with a group, sometimes telling someone that they should externalize something they usually keep to themself is all that person needs. Also, I think theres nothing inherently wrong with being a little preformative, you might actually end up developing a genuine passion for the activity independent from chasing people. I know so many people who just go to the gym for themselves now (and playing guitar is another big one). This imitation to gain favor is a very natural human process, online media just loves to be hyper critical of narrative

Some survey a while ago listed out the hobbies men do that are most attractive to women. Probably kinda unscientific but I ask women in my life about it all the time and they're like "yeah that tracks." It was like, reading, cooking, painting, gardening, woodworking, photography, and playing instruments at the top. I think there was some bizarre shit too like blacksmithing. The bottom of the list was funnier though, it was like, "listens to joe rogan" or "arguing online." Sadly Anime and Magic were at the bottom of the list too. Crypto as well lol.

This tracks with my own relationships. Having 2 daughters who are now in their 20s and starting to become more serious about who they date makes it even more clear. I'd personally see it as a red flag if a woman *didn't* find value in these sorts of useful/interesting/creative hobbies and skills. Just because a dude watches anime or plays fucking Yu-Gi-Oh or whatever is not a deal-breaker, as long as that's not ALL they do. There's got to be a good dose of those more mundane 'real-world useful' skills in there as well. Be multi-dimensional. There's plenty of time to learn how to cook a little bit or play some piano. All of the above should apply to how a man evaluates a woman as a potential long-term mate, too.
View on Reddit #73562580

PsycheTester@reddit

I've done that, later been told my lack of success surely stems from the fact I wasn't interested in those hobbies to begin with and only participated for social interaction; apparently the advantage of meeting people in hobby clubs is you having a common interest to start with. If one only gets into the hobby for the sake of finding new friends, one loses that advantage, and becomes little more than a nuisance to others who are there to actually enjoy the hobby

I can absolutely recommend the volunteering at an animal shelter both because from experience most of the people there are women but (and this is more important imo) it helps the animals and you get to interact with poor babies that could really use the help. I do it because I love animals, but I’ve also had the women there hit on me quite a lot, especially when they’ve recently broken up with their boyfriends. Which isn’t ideal for me because I’m just there to help the babies.

there's plenty of veggy proteins out there to explore! one of the tastiest is tempeh, I love its taste even though at the beginning it might taste kind of weird. and, if you make it yourself, is super cheap (about 2€/kg or 1$/lb), with similar protein content than meat. you can also try minced TVP, super versatile and cheap, and you can season it however you like (i make a delicious ragù bolognese with it), and you can ask around on /r/veganrecipes and on /r/veganfitness for more info about vegetable proteins. I take about 100gr per day and had no problems until now.

* Paid dating sites. If you're paying, they're paying. And if they're paying, they're looking for commitment and probably have a job. * Make new friends. Don't look for female friends, just friends you click with. New friends will know single people, and if you're not an asshole and they're not an asshole, you'll get setup to date (just be patient). * There is no such thing as a 100% male hobby. Either you're enjoying your hobby from your own home, or from locations that are 100% male dominated. Find a new game shop, or a weekly book group, or whatever else you're into. Just explore more.

Find something to volunteer at. Like a dog rescue. Lots of women do that strike up a rapport find out if they're single and ask them out to coffee. If they're not single but seem friendly after a few weeks ask if they have any single friends that might be interested in going for coffee. Just say you don't like dating apps. Ask lots of questions at coffee about them and what their interests are and don't look at your phone. Then maybe ask them to go to the movies, pool or bowling and at the end of the that night if all is going well go in for a kiss. If you're rejected great you found out early you're wasting your time if it goes well then you may have found yourself in a relationship. Good luck. Also I'm in my 40s this may not work at all now. Also prune up your social media they can find. Make sure everything on there is positive, has no pitty seeking, political leanings or anger posts.

If your friends at early 20s don’t have any girlfriends or other women in the group, that’s not a good sign. You probably won’t meet any women if you’re just going out to clubs that are somehow all male. When I was dating in my early 20s, and the dates entire group was just weird NEETS and incels that didn’t know any women, that was a red flag. Plenty of nerds and gamers and autistics have girlfriends and a social circle that includes women. Those women tend to have friends that can lead to nights out where you meet other women. If you’re in an insular group where there are no women, and you want to meet women, you should find another group. I met most of my boyfriends at friends gatherings. Not the club.

This assumed friends of your friends are your friends as well, and that's not how it tends to work. People also tend tend to have multiple smaller friend groups, not one big one. Like, people have a friend group A with whom they do kayaking and board games, and a friend group B with whom they do bouldering, and people from those two groups will never meet eachother despite having a common link in theory.

Not that friends gatherings are a bad place to meet a possible partner, but usually when a dude is complaining about how he's not even finding any women around, that's just bad advice.

I guess just my “friends gatherings” weren’t 5 dudes around computers. They were more house parties where new people would show up and easily 40-50 people hanging out who all had connections and shared interests. So it really WAS a good way to meet people. Saying my (now) husband, I brought female friends of mine to these. They had fun. We played drinking games. They socialized. We played NES and drank and maybe Munchkins or other RPGs that didn’t take a lot of experience were going too, if anyone wanted to join. A lot of “nerd” groups I interacted with were also really social. Big parties. Lots of people. Like minded people. Easy to meet and socialize.

Sports stuff is the play. I get hit on all the time at volleyball and the country club. It's crazy to me that reddit tells people to "go where their interests are" and all these jackasses go bug the spare handful of women at the magic the gathering meetup.

If your most recent experience on dating apps is a decade old you may not want to recommend them to people in 2025. It's basically the "Just walk up to the manager, give him your resume and a firm handshake, and you're basically guaranteed a job!" of people off the market since anytime pre-COVID.

Agree with you about dating apps nowadays but as the comment above said, I’m recommending branching out and joining sole sports league that is co-ed. You meet lots of people, so you can make friends or other folks looking to date. I play soccer in a co-ed league in Colorado and half my team are single and other half are couples looking for friends.  Experiences may vary but it’s honestly helped me as a married man make friends. My buddy also met his now wife in our soccer league.

Because the ratio between men and women on these apps is 10:1, so unless you're a Chad with a sports car then it's over right from the start.

Yeah but the only show a set amount of dudes in the evening anyway. It’s not like they pick and choose all at once. Not all girls on bumble/hinge go for that vibe. Especially for long term relationships.

The app favors the accounts that get more swipes. You're lucky for your profile to even appear more than a few times a month

My most recent experience on dating apps is of a year ago, when I met my now girlfriend. They're viable and a good option if you're not in the mood to do cold approaches. If you're doing poorly on dating apps you're either really hideous (statistically unlikely) or you don't have a good profile (which is the case for most dudes). And in both cases odds are you don't know how the algo works and isn't using it to your favor. I had essentially 3 iterations of my profile: first one had shitty photos and literally no matches on tinder (and like 3 or 4 matches on Boo). Slowly went about upgrading the photos and my wardrobe and it went to about 5 matches per week between Tinder and Bumble. Then deleted those two accounts, uploaded the best photos and went to 30+ matches per week with the new account boost and 10 to 15 once it wore off while using only Bumble. ~~and for only 29.99 a month I can teach you all the secrets~~

there is such an astronomically low chance that the vtuber is a local woman and not a dude using a voice changer or someone living in buttfuck nowhere that you are better of just asking out random women outside until one gives in

In my area, the really quality ones end up moving north, go to college and degree in something, marry one of their classmates, and come back to buy a house because it's cheaper or in some rare cases stay up where they moved in case they strike it big. And if none of that happens, they stay, have a few really bad relationships, drop out of college, etc.
