Quoted: They want to be able to unburden every minute aspect of their daily lives on you, and you must sit there enraptured listening to every word and remembering every detail They don't want to hear your problems. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Bullshit. For most women, if you tell them the concerns occupying your mind, suddenly they see you as weak, and they see that as unattractive. The idea that men might have emotions seems to be a foreign concept to a lot of women. They want to be able to unburden every minute aspect of their daily lives on you, and you must sit there enraptured listening to every word and remembering every detail They don't want to hear your problems. My problem has always been trying to find a solution to fix their problem and that isn't what they want. Because that isn't what they want most of the time. [unless the brakes quit working or they lock themselves out of a car] It is doubly so if it's a relationship issue they have with someone else like a co-worker. |

The US population is 50.52 percent female compared to 49.48 percent male. So unless there is a lot of polygamy going on...
Yet the "problem" is men being lonely and the "solution" is that they need to be more like women... https://igotstandardsbro.com/ This is a great site to share with the cat ladies. |

I have a girlfriend but I guess you can still file me in the lonely category. It's just my turn with her anyway.

Women want Brad Pitt with Jeff Bezos money. 100%. Any woman that says they don’t is a liar. Anyone else is just a compromise to what they really want. But you can up your chances with money. Also be an asshole, women like that.

Quoted: Counter argument: https://futureofsex.net/robots/state-of-the-sexbot-market-the-worlds-best-sex-robot-and-ai-love-doll-companies/ View Quote Technology is the solution to all of societies problems. Feminism has not just empowered, but overpowered women, spoiling them and over inflating their egos and favoring them in the courts. But technology will fuck them over badly and you can see it already, as feminists with foresight have come out against the potential of sex robots. Why? Well No matter the reason they spout, the truth is they can’t afford to lose their power over simps and male feminists as Without those, their validation for their ongoing “crisis” will be reduced along with their political power and funding. Then there’s medical technology, imagine people in better health and appearance? Do you have any idea how much feminist and todays spoiled women will be fucked if everyone’s an 9 or ten? What will spoiled attractive women do when there are not just sex robots, but there are multiple attractive women men can chose from? Personality will have to play a bigger role, women would have to be polite and nice to keep a man again, as their man will be able to easily replace any asshole with a new model on par with the last more easily than before. Feminism in that future can only survive if they jerry rig the laws in even more obvious and unfair ways, as well as ban sexbots. But even then, there will be ways to adapt, such as not getting married to avoid rigged divorce laws, ditching women/carouseling through women before common law dictates you’re married, harems (good luck stealing another womens share or the house if you’re only 1/3rd in divorce court!) etc etc etc. |

The weak and those unsuited for perpetuation of the species did not survive. View Quote This exactly! Why is there so many people running around with allergies/asthma?

I think the irony I see is that single guys over 40 and well into their 50’s who have their shit together are enjoying life vastly more than the over 40, single women. My wife works with a fair number of teachers from 30’s up to their 50’s who are single, bitter, miserable, and based on the weight, looks, and overall shitty attitudes, will be single the rest of their lives.
Companionship is a big commodity over 50 and most women have zero chance with anyone their age. Most of those that were attractive and promiscuous likely have tats out the ass, STD’s, and look like they were road hard and put away wet. If I was looking for a woman and was over 40, I would be hitting the churches and looking for a younger divorcee or widow that has a higher probability of not banging 10-15 dudes a month. Granted, this story is a trash job on men, but the real story should be the lonely women over 40 who will likely never find a companion or partner, let alone a husband. Case in point. A great friend of ours is 52, single, active, attractive (if you like blonds), and generally fun to hang out with. She’s recently divorced (about two years), she’s employed and independent and has raised two excellent boys (one self-employed the other just joint the Army). She tried some dating app, and ended up meeting some guy she knew of. Not a bad guy, but he can be a selfish dick; required state trooper and works at a golf course and all he cares about is golfing…and he knows “everything”. He won’t do anything she wants to do, has zero desire to get married, and when he doesn’t want sex, he doesn’t want her around (her words, not mine). Still, she just wants to have a “man”… She’s wasting valuable years unless she just like being in a convenient relationship with no strings. I warned her that as soon as a younger option pops up, she’ll be back to BOB (battery operated boyfriend). Single and under 40? Stay employed, improve your financial position in life. Hit the gym, get in shape, stay active. Don’t dress like a schlub in public. Consider finding an active church with a good population near your age. Take a public speaking class or something like Toastmasters; improve your communications skills. Depending on your area, look into groups like “Meetup” that mirror your interests. I spent almost 9 months in Northern VA and joined a few Meetup groups, one was “hike and brew”, another was simply for “backpacking” (actually mostly day hikes), and a brewery group. I must have met a few dozen very attractive single women from late 20’s to early 40’s. I was (still am!) married and more than a few didn’t give a shit, wanting to join them for the evening or weekend. Thank God I’m married and don’t live up there, I would have been “whored” to death! Being single ? being lonely. I’m quite confident that if I was single tomorrow, I would be more than comfortable and lonely would be a concerted effort and choice. ROCK6 |

2 years post divorce and I've started dipping my toe into the dating pool. And dang it needs some chlorine!!!
I'm fit, good job, nice house, and have a car collection. On average I'm dating women 10 years or more younger than me. The mid 30s women that I meet are generally a mess. Those that never married, but have been on the carousel for the past 15 years, don't realize they are a walking red flag. But now they want to settle down and have kids... Hard pass. The divorcees are largely emotionally/psychologically damaged. Women initiate 70% of divorces, yet I think men recover quicker and more completely. Women can't seem to move on, and I really don't want to constantly have myself compared to your ex. |

Quoted: Follows a hypothesis that I have that not very many people are actually relationship material. Lives have become too easy with survivability too high. Most who would have otherwise have been killed off long before they were able to reproduce have survived long enough to realize they are biologically compelled to go through the motions. But they’re not suitable, and others sense that. And so they end up alone and miserable and lonely. View Quote best synopsis I have read all year |

Quoted: So there are more men than women and that ratio only increases with age. So maybe they should explain how there is some giant increase in lonely men without even more lonely women? Some have already alluded to it. The women essential operate as a harem, facilitated by the dating apps, to the same small subset of guys. View Quote There’s a TikTok trend celebrating this and the women are dating other women instead of men. |

I think the virtual office space is going to really mess with relationships as well. I know a LOT of people, myself included. That met their spouse though work or in my case my co-worker introduced me to her SIL.

View Quote I was in a long term relationship all though my 20's and then it fell apart as I was hitting 30. Yeah the dating pool @ 30 sucks, especially when you've never been married or had kids. Most women already have a kid or a baby daddy from a failed relationship, they have a shit ton of baggage and many are just trying to snag the first man they can catch. Most of the ones that are still single are single for a reason. |

I want to talk about a concert, a movie, plans for kids or weekend, a new restaurant to try out. Etc... |

After my divorce, I have zero trust. It was about five years ago and I'm still financially recovering. I don't get to retire, I'm 65 and don't have the time to rebuild my retirement (that she stole).
I get laid often enough to keep the beast happy, but I just don't have any motivation to have a girlfriend. It's fucking great! I do what I want, when I want, with who I want. Get up at 4AM to go fish or deer hunt? Great! A long nap on Saturday? Great! Go see a movie? Don't have to spend time figuring out what she wants to watch. Went to see Top Gun by myself last weekend, it was... Great! Come home after work and spend time in the garage wrenching on a bike? Great? Don't feel like dinner? Great! Don't eat dinner! Want to take the quad out and run around the hills scouting for elk, setting up game cams? Great! How about stopping off for a couple beers on the way home from work? Great! You get the idea.

Quoted: Younger and middle-aged men are the loneliest they've been in generations, and it's probably going to get worse. This is not my typical rosy view of relationships but a reality nonetheless. Over the last 30 years, men have become a larger portion of that growing group of long-term single people. And while you don't actually need to be in a relationship to be happy, men typically are happier and healthier when partnered. Here are three broad trends in the relationship landscape that suggest heterosexual men are in for a rough road ahead: Dating Apps. Whether you're just starting to date or you're recently divorced and dating again, dating apps are a huge driver of new romantic connections in the United States. The only problem is that upwards of 62% of users are men and many women are overwhelmed by the number of options they have. Competition in online dating is fierce, and lucky in-person chance encounters with dreamy partners are rarer than ever. Relationship Standards. With so many options, it's not surprising that women are increasingly selective. I do a live TikTok show (@abetterloveproject) and speak with hundreds of audience members every week; I hear recurring dating themes from women between the ages of 25 and 45: They prefer men who are emotionally available, who are good communicators, and who share their values. Skills Deficits. For men, this means a relationship skills gap that, if not addressed, will likely lead to fewer dating opportunities and longer periods of being single. There's less patience for poor communication skills today. The problem for men is that emotional connection is the lifeblood of healthy, long-term love and it requires all the skills that families still are not consistently teaching young boys. mOAR View Quote Laughs in fuck you, I’m going my own way.

Maybe I’m simply well adjusted, but if I got divorced today I’d have a date tomorrow night. I’m 54, not overweight though certainly not muscular, make probably an average-ish wage given my location, and I drive a 2006. I don’t find it difficult to talk to women (or men). It’s not that difficult to be somewhat charming. I did have the benefit of relatively social parents and a large extended family.
