Chasing women is kinda beta/simp behavior if u rly think about it. Make the women flock to u instead by working on yourself to the point where they have no other choice BUT to notice u

Besides, most women these days ain’t worth it. Lots of hot ones, but a lot of them straight hoes my boi. IG thots, OF sloots…. I ain’t got time for that chit

The dudes that ain’t chasing after them are the ones that get noticed cuz guess what? If ur chasing them, ur doing what most everyone else is doing and u ain’t special or no different

Man, stack ur money…. Lift weights, stay healthy and jacked, build yourself up and have some damn respect for yourself…. Don’t be some loser ass simp…. maybe get urself a sports car too. Ride around and hear the roar of that v8…. that might help get some of y’all’s test levels up and remind u of what it feels like to be a man
Great attitude. More men should have this.....

The problem is that for an average man online, there's always going to be someone she thinks is better pop up in her match queue, then she disappears like a fart in the wind. And while my looks is probably average, almost everything else is above average.

Back between 2007-2015 range, online dating was the great. It's just become too mainstream and the market got too saturated. Too many choices for females isn't a good thing. Hell 90% of them can't even decide what they want for dinner and then complain about it when you pick a place. Most of them are on the mentally retarded spectrum LMFAO
You will find that even the most best of the bestest women that you can find? Will drive you crazy at some point.

It is just the female nature. That is why taking the attitude of what XP said above is "the way".

And I say this as a man happily married (f0r the most part) to a 8.9/10 the past 12 years.

Fact is, average guys get average women. Angus was just a movie. Most of you are never pulling an IG thot. Which is your entire basis for women. The average woman sleeps with 7 guys in her lifetime. If you truly believe all women are sloots, it's because that's what you're into and those women are all you pay attention too. Touch grass. Get off your phone. There's a metric chit-ton of different women out there. You're just not seeing them because you're on misc, looking at the pictures posted here. Go outside and meet people. Get off the apps.

Yeah...it's like a lot of men pour everything into finding a woman but what even happens when they are successful and land her...like 5-10 years in? What percentage of married men are even happy long term? 10-15% on the high end? Many reach their 40s and 50s, get took to the cleaners and wind up even less happy than they started. Finding a decent woman may seem like a needle in a haystack but the battle has only begun when you get there.

Having been married in the past, I would wager to say that in a majority of cases, men who get married and end up unhappy in the marriage later on…. A lot of them dudes prob could’ve avoided that had they done their due diligence back in the dating phase…. No doubt in my mind that they prob ignored or didn’t pay close enough attention to recognize signs that were there…. I’ve seen it with ppl in my own family, so I mean…. It sucks but some of them it’s kinda hard to feel sorry for….

Or it’s even sometimes stuff that the man could’ve gotten a handle on and nipped in the bud at an earlier stage but never did and it just gets progressively worse over time

Too many guys just have no backbone anymore…. They’ll get them a piece and then they’ll become a lapdog essentially out of fear that if they lose what they’ve got, that may be the only piece they ever get

The fundamentals of dating changed forever. Most boomers with good looking wives who met long ago would not have a chance in this day and age. These women are realizing this and divorcing like crazy, while the male boomer will be left alone forever.

I thought it portrayed it really well. She wasn't even looking for it. Now, the magnitude is amplified 10-fold if she wants to

and now you also have the chorus of single/divorced women at work for example that will get in her ear with the "you don't deserve that queen" talk when they hear her side of the story. and of course the men looking for the pucci will chime in with "you deserve better" lines.

there's also no shame in being a woman that jumps in and out of relationships or gets divorced once or twice or more.

I’m glad I got to experience dating and smashing some of the hotter chicks when I was younger putting in minimal effort. I feel sorry for post 2000 kids chit is going to be tough for them if they aren’t top of the top
if you ain't got no money, this is about to be a real short conversation, you dig?

its bad because it means high body counts and sky high standards most men cant meet.

That's because he was out living life rather than complaining in a forum.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

Ah, so instead of bettering yourself, you want women to lower their standards? Why is ok for them to lower their standards, but not for you?

Because our standards make sense and there's dont. If every woman wants an above average man, they are the problem because that isnt possible.

It's very possible, because it's not like there can only be a certain amount of men that can have any one characteristic. Women want most of all a man who will actually act like a man. Do you think crying on an online forum is manly behavior, do you think that's something anyone could find attractive?

You're fighting a lost battle. You can -never- convince these incels that they are a problem. it is -literally- impossible.

Every girl is an instathot that has 1.5m viewers and a plethora of chads. its over.
Every thing they can do to improve isnt worth it because chad gets it without trying, so why should they try. its over.
Every scenario gets compared to some fantasy that 50 years ago every ugly dude landed a 10/10 straight outta high school. its over.
All women are sloots. End of. Its over.
Standards are too high. Its over.

It goes on. and on. and on. and on. etc etc infinity and etc.

Social circle still trumps all. If you have IG models in your orbit, even if you're a pudgy office drone you have a better shot than a 6 foot adonis on Tinder.

Reduced information asymmetry and geographical barriers has happened.

IE datings closer to an open market these days. All the grizzel gets skipped over, hoes only want dat filet.

Agree with the doods prior who basically said "chase your dream, never chase a hoe"
