Treating someone well doesn't automatically mean its a meal ticket to a relationship. If the attraction/compatibility isn't there it isn't there. How many times have women been told you can cook, clean, give bomb sex, take care of a man when he's sick but if you're not the one, you're not the one. The same applies for men. We need to get out of this mentality that women should lower their standards meanwhile we're expected to accept that a man just doesn't want to be with us.

The lady that mentioned girls being mean, struck a chord with me. At the age of 49 I went to college for a career change. Along the way, I became a sort of Father Confessor to many of the students. One guy in particular I had a lot of classes with the first year. One day in the computer lab I was talking with him and his friend when a group of attractive young ladies came in and took a table nearby. Apparently one of the girls was my friends crush. The guy with my friend was encouraging him to go talk to the girl, I told him to NEVER talk to a girl he liked when her friends were around. He listened to the other guy, screwed up his nerve and walked over. He barely got a word out when the other 3 witches verbally disemboweled him and sent him slinking out of the lab with tears in his eyes, totally destroyed. Those worthless tramps just turned a great guy into a dude that will forever just get what he wants out of girls because he's never going to put himself in the position to get hurt like that again. I've thought about it many times and I truly hope those three girls spend very long, lonely, bitter lives reaping what they've sown. At least they'll never run out of cats to rescue.

Being a middle aged divorced guy the face of dating is very different. Before my wife internet dating was around but it was considered only for ppl who couldn’t meet people. You met someone through friends, life, etc. There was actually some social proofing going on before you met most of your dates. Post divorce with the online being the norm what do you have? A pic and a small blurb. There is no social proofing and as you are meeting far more of a chance selection. It seems to have removed a lot of ppl being on good behavior. There is definitely some entitlement and a lot of rudeness. It is far easier to have sex and get sex than ever. Ppl seem to want the quick and easy benefits of dating. Moving beyond the physical hookup is where it gets tricky. Finding someone you’re life compatible with is harder for several reasons.

As a man, I definitely agree that a substantial amount of women I have attempted to cold approach were down right mean. I would understand if they just said no, or politely excuse themselves from my presence. Unfortunately, I have gotten a response like "ewwwwww", or "don't talk/look at me", laughter at my expense, or worst completely ignoring and blowing me off as if I don't exist or unworthy to approach. I am also a very big and tall man with big feet and often get my feet stepped on in crowds and can attest most guys will immediately apologize for stepping on my feet, but the majority of women will two step on my feet and then glare at me and walk off as if I was the one who committed the infraction. It's incidents like this along with other things that makes me not want to even try anymore because as a person who was brought up to treat others with courtesy and respect, I feel many people and especially women were not taught those values and it shows. A lot of these young women today are rude, spoiled, and have unrealistic/unnatural expectations of men.

Yeah Artificial Intelligence is not going to be a problem at all. Destroy all humans! GPT-3 was right when it said humans only make everything worse and need to be controlled. Except there is a better way. God in His mercy has contained this world to protect the other worlds, and when every soul that can be saved has been sealed with the seal of God, then God will command His angels to release the powers of darkness and humanity will destroy itself. Then God will execute the final judgement order, that's the great white throne judgment, and all the wicked will be annihilated in one foul swoop. God will pour out His cup of wrath and the entire planet will be baptized with fire. If you think the fires in Australia are like a scene from out of an apocalyptic movie, you've seen nothing yet.

I never considered my looks as a reason a woman would like me or not, I never really knew rather a woman thought I was ugly or good looking. I can honestly say with 100% certainty that I've never considered myself ugly or good looking, I always just look in a mirror and see myself. When I think back about what the girls and women I hung out with looked like I think I could assume I was decent looking. At least average and above.

There's nothing wrong with the friend zone, just don't stay there forever. Five or six months, no longer than that. It's up to us to stand up to the plate, and let the woman know that our feelings have changed to love. The only thing a woman needs to change her mind, is a reason. And it can go both ways, she can say yes she has feelings for you also. Or she can say that her feelings have not changed. If there's no feelings on her part ? Then you have to separate yourself from her, for self preservation. That would be a catalyst, she will either find herself actually missing you and she actually loves you. Or she might not - lol. Either way, that will be a good move for both outcomes. Good luck to one and all !

We share everything, shopping, housework, car cleaning, gardening. There are good people out there, but they're becoming harder to find. I'm so pleased I'm nearly 60, rather than 20.

You are kind, and you genuinely want to help. Your advice is spot on. No game playing, no BS, no useless flirting tips. So much of social interaction is based on common sense, decency, and maturity. As a Boomer, my parents instilled in me good values and good manners. I’m not sure millennials or Gen Z people were taught even basic politeness. Also, with Tik Tok and other social media, there is so much insanity being peddled online. You truly are a breath of fresh air! Oh, and in my experience, “friend zone” was simply a platonic relationship. Nothing wrong with that. Once sex becomes part of the equation, the potential for toxic behavior increases exponentially.

Yes, beauty doesn't last forever. That doesn't mean it's not important on either side. What people DON'T want to acknowledge is that YES, you need to have an amazing personality, BUT in order to show off that personality you need to be on a date with a woman. In order to even have her say yes to go on a date with you, you NEED to meet the minimum requirement for the looks category. Saying that looks don't matter because they fade away in future is basically assuming that women say yes to EVERY guy that asks them out on a date and give them a second date only after they realize that he has a good personality. I think we can both agree on the fact that no one says yes to everyone. So in order to get a yes for the first date, you NEED to meet her minimum requirement for looks. The only time looks doesn't matter is when she friendzones you. If at that time you have a charismatic personality, you'll have plenty of opportunity to show that and make her fall for you. However, Courtney herself admitted that getting out of the friendzone is highly improbable. Hence, let's not pretend that looks don't or shouldn't matter cause advice like that honestly can screw up someone's dating life. Looks DO matter and one must try to improve it the best they can (eg. work out, dress nice, etc.).

As a man, I kinda disagree... unless you have mindset like: "reproduction #1 importance with no exceptions", look is always important. Is absolutely true, that look/status/wealth shouldn't be the ONLY requirement... but I also think that e.g. look is very important. The only difference is that we, men, don't try to cover up compared to women. I couldn't date/be in a relationship with a girl I'm not physically and sexually attracted to. Because that's basically the only difeerence between best friend and girlfriend. If there's a wholesome but not attractive girl/woman, I definitely won't date her (cause there no attraction) but she can easily be my valuable friend. If there's hot girl with literally two braincells... she's probably the best choice for a one-night stand but she's not a "gf material". You have to find balance between those two... and of course, look (physical attracrion) with be logically always the first sieve. The problem I see these days is that there are huge differences between women and men and their expectations... there's like e.g. 70 % women who have unrealistic expectations and/or expect to get a top-tier guy (and then they're like "Yeah, women always have to settle for less...") and then 30 % women who want at least someone decent. On the other hand there's e.g. 30 % men who have unrealistic expectations and/or expect a top-tier women, 60 % men who want someone decent and wholesome and 10 % men who gave up completely. Like if you're top-tier man, you can and you should aim for top-tier woman... but way too many women are barely average and expect someone who's so out of her league it's almost not funny.

Loved the truth in your comments. Hook ups are the way to future unhappiness. When I started dating at 16, I dated different girls every week. I kept the physical out because it can take over the whole relationship. Learn what you like and don't like. One Sat. I had 3 different dates. AM hike up the canyon and cook breakfast. Noon Go water skiing, 8ish go dancing. No movies where you don't get a chance to talk. Many dates were just talk and walk. I wanted to get to know what kind of person they are, before any kind of commitment., because I never wanted to invest a lifetime and then have the heartache of divorce. Sex before marriage, clouds your judgement chemically and almost or always guarantees future unhappiness. I have never seen it work out, because trust and respect is more of a foundation for happiness than love. If you want to be sure and kill a relationship, break God's law and have sex before the commitment of marriage. You become more needy because you lose self respect as well. It is the highway to unhappiness.

If we want to blame anything, then blame people who use it. People are what took Social Media and turned it into what it is because of their weak mindset. The narcissism, the self-centeredness, the insecurity or all of the above. At the end of the day, a crappy, weak mentality manifests itself into crappy, weak actions and that is what collectively shows up on Social Media and creates the culture. If people stopped blaming external things and took accountability for their own behavior and actions, maybe we can start to see some changes in not just dating, but everywhere.

The "Childhood Friend" cliché is a cliché for a reason. It's true. One of my closest female friends (other than my wife) is someone who I grew up with and I had a pretty big crush on her ever since puberty. Since we knew each other pre puberty the chances of us going out was absolutely minimal. Today we are still amazing friends that love spending time together. What finally got me to get over her was when she got into a relationship. Seeing how happy her partner made her allowed me to be happy for her and so I was able to get over my crush which allowed me to, eventually, meet, date, and marry my wife. So any of the guys chasing after your childhood crush, you're better off helping them find happiness so you can find closure.

I feel like a lot of men that are not in that top 10 percentile are prone to this happening. If women are chasing top 10 percentile men in hopes of marriage, that's probably not going to work out because those men do not want marriage. If you date a player, you get played. Meanwhile, they are friend-zoning legitimately good men, who are actually looking for long term commitment. It's a vicious cycle, one that is not benefiting either gender IMO, I wish we could get out of it.

A good tactic is to clean sweep all social sites. Then when you begin dating, make sure you communicate boundaries for websites, “corn”, flirting, going out in general, times it’s appropriate to respond to a text (ex: my boyfriend knows I won’t respond to any male that texts me after 11pm unless specified circumstances I communicated beforehand). Things like that. People do not know how to communicate anymore..and that is the root of what is killing functional relationships. Don’t be afraid. That fear will make it less likely to find, or less likely to be healthy. The point of putting yourself out there and experiencing rejection, heartbreak, and bad experiences is so that you can learn to WORK with a partner later on THROUGH problems. An example of this is people that were married during the rise of internet “corn”. Many thousands of couples got divorced around that time frame. It is a fact they found immense correlation between these 2 factors. Say, a woman took the husband back because it became normalized. They communicated during their new, healthy relationship before they finalized the divorce. Now when they get DM’s from influencers to check out their nudes: these people know it is a risk for divorce. That is a set boundary. If they disobey it, divorce. If they follow the boundary, there is nothing wrong with them having social sites and living their life. Majority of people think communicating this way is controlling. When you are doing something in agreement with a partner, negotiating your boundaries with one another….it is the very opposite of control for both parties. When you don’t agree on the boundaries you want, the relationship should either end or it becomes toxic. Toxic relationships have become acceptable for some people. That ain’t cute.

Usually the "unbalanced" couples are tilting to the man's side, i.e. the man is quite better looking and could get a better girl. If the opposite occurs, then the man may not be good looking but has something else, usually money, some good social standing etc. But yes, it is true that while not a frequent occurrence, such couples exist. What is noteworthy is how they are perceived societally when in reality their entourage will often try actively to split them up. E.g. if the uglier/shorter/poorer man of the company gets a nice girl, then someone among the entourage will try to undermine his relationship and even if he doesn't get himself the girl. At the same time the female friends of the woman will be presenting to her new men every week to say there are better options. Sounds funny but it happens. There has to be some biological underpinning in that, it is not just people being mean to each other.

Being in the friendzone may not be a bad thing if the guy can actually be friends with the girl and can accept that he will not have a romantic relationship with her. The girl will have friends, female relatives, etc. who you can meet through her, and if they know that the girl is your friend and if she views you favorably, she can be an invaluable resource for meeting other women.

Thanks Courtney, I’m a 67 year old “pushover” no more man that’s finally ending a 23 year marriage with the most toxic woman I have ever known. Even our 17 year old son doesn’t want to live with her. I’m having trouble with that because the women that influenced me in my youth didn’t behave in a way that made myself or anyone else dislike them. Just the opposite and no one could convince me otherwise. That’s probably why I supported the women’s rights movement and have always tried to empower women, even my X. I’m not sure how I fell into the trap but the woman I wound up with is most certainly not the same woman I married. I’m certainly not perfect but give me a break. The day I said “I do” was the end that I put up with way too long and the financial loss is devastating. She refused to work, became mean, demanding respect from us but didn’t believe she had to reciprocate. I don’t think the words reciprocate or accountability are in her dictionary. Anyway, again thanks. You’re a rare and very wise young woman so don’t let anyone’s negative “crap” affect you in any way shape or form. Emotional abuse is unacceptable but people with narcissistic behaviors don’t care how you feel and “get off” on your reaction. If you even comment about someone’s negative comment, you’re giving them what they need to survive, they’re “getting off” so don’t grant them the pleasure. They don’t know what true pleasure is. Please keep doing what you’re doing and keep making a positive impact on both women and men with Biblical principles.

I think there are two sides to the friendzone conversation: One is definitely on the girl to check herself and understand why she is not attracted to good men that she has friendzoned. HOWEVER let's not forget that a big reason good men get friendzoned is because they don't make their intentions clear, or if they do and she friendzones them, they don't have the self-respect to distance themselves from the girl after they get rejected. You can't stick around after forever hoping she changes her mind. She won't respect you and you won't respect yourself. Treat yourself with respect and walk away

Might have been the way I was brought up because I didn't have much growing up so now I make sure I'm always provided with something but I think men don't find that attractive in me. In your case, yup it does look like that girl took advantage of you and I think that's kind of your fault maybe because you where rushing into things too quickly and she saw every chance to use you and that's what she did. A true woman will appreciate your compassion and kindness and like I said before even I'm the type of person who hates receiving things cause I do everything on my own, but if a man ever did something for me out of kindness I'd appreciate every little bit and peice of it. There's good woman out there I promise that girl you're with just didn't appreciate anything you gave her don't let that change the nice guy in you cause I promise someone out there is going to be thanking God they have found a man like you.

I don't go out of my way to be a prick to people and I'm usually a pretty pleasant guy to be around but I take zero shit from anybody because I know I deserve respect and I expect others to treat me with the same respect I give them. A wise person once told me "People will only get away with what you allow them to" and I simply don't allow it anymore. I have met a good woman and we've been married for almost 10 years with 3 beautiful and amazing kids. I respect her and she respects me and when she doesn't I let her know about it quickly and we resolve it.

I had a friendzone problem a while back, just out of high schoo,l it would happen all the time, but I figured out an easy fix. When I ask a woman out, and she says anything to the effect of "I just want to be friends" I always respond with something to the effect of "oh OK, well it was nice getting to know you" Which of course always listed something to the effect of "what do you mean it was nice" And then I politely explain that I was not speaking to her with friendship in mind, that I have romantic designs, and that I cannot simply turn those romantic intentions off, and that it would be unfair to her and unfair to me for us to be friends with such an imbalanced level of desire.This is almost always responded to with "I understand, when you get past those feelings you should really hit me up so we can be friends for real" I always tell them how flattered I am, and that, that would be nice, but still I reaffirm that I will likely never get in touch with them again, as by the time these feelings are gone, there really isn't anything worth while for me to reach out to her for anyway, I have tons of friends, and I really don't need to go out of my way looking for more. Then, no matter how you're feeling, you smile, you turn around, you walk away, and you never answer another text or call again. Just periodically keep up with her Facebook so that you can see when that inevitable "single mom boss Babe" cat lady post makes its 1st appearance. That's when you hit her up and see if she wants to be friends. And at that point stay friends no matter how hard she pushes just stay friends, And every time she says she wishes she could find a guy who would actually take her seriously, just be like 👍🏻 👌🏻 "damn, that's crazy...." Leave a good sized awkward pause then say something completely nonsecutor, Like did you see that game last night? It works especially well when there was no game and she knows that.

As for the friendzone, I've gotten to a point where it has stopped bothering me as much. I've been friendzoned over twenty times and whilst it hurt a lot in the beginning, it has stopped hurting as much over the years. For me, I've always been more attracted to women that I already know (hence the insane amount of friendzones haha). It's a curse and a blessing I think. That said, I don't have many female friends due to being in tech school currently. Not too many of the students enrolled are female. Very few are, but I only know one of them, but we act more like acquaintances or work friends than actual friends. When I do have an actual female friend, it's normally because she found something interesting about me and started a conversation with me first. Or I'm in a club or place where our interests align and conversation sparks. Having a lack of a romantic relationship for so long made me get to a point where I started to change the way I carry myself. Not for them, but for me. I feel a lot better about myself now, as I feel like it's almost better to look towards the old code that a knight lived by. That doesn't mean doing the "white knight" thing where you go overboard with a woman. It's just a manner of carrying yourself. And it helps calm the soul in a sea of people telling you how they think you should live. The "social stigmas" that burden us all and hinder how all of us want to truly live as we are. Anyway, it's called The Code of Chivalry. There are several different interpretations of it that have been created since the first one, but that's probably because of the change of times as history becomes the present moment. And, of course, there are other types of moral codes to hold oneself to, but having one doesn't mean you can't adopt another. Stoicism and Taoism, both philosophies (Greek/Hellenistic and Eastern in origin respectively) are also great philosophies to live by in my opinion as a guy. Stoicism on Inner Strength and Taoism on Balance across all things. They teach the closest thing to inner peace that I've come across so far. But I'm only nearing my thirties. There's always more to learn.

GUYS... Courtney just admitted something that you should take on seriously . Never let a girl get to know you too well. She will eventually see you as a brother/friend. *Always* be a mystery.

My wife knows everything about me, knows me better than I know myself, and unless her last name is secretly Lannister, she definitely does not see me as a brother.

There's also the issues of attraction too, that nobody wants to talk about.

Depends on the girl. I know waaaay too many stuff about my bf, as in all the bad and the ugly and the embarrassing, but that just made me want him more. There's something attractive with honesty.

I agree, though to make sure you are not put in the friendzone, make your intention clear right off the bat if she says no, walk away dont stay in Hope's she will change her mind. The reason why those guys stayed in the friendzone for Courtney, they were never clear with how they felt until too late.

Hello Courtney I just have to say that I don’t understand how people can be mean to you. You are a beautiful, classy, and intelligent woman. I think how you conduct yourself is amazing and this should be an example of how human beings should treat each other!!! You continue to be a bright light in the world, because the world needs more light.

Oh my god, I didn't know TikTok videos are that hilarious! The reaction you had for those toxic advises are pure gold! Anyways, watching your videos has always been therapeutic, especially when I was feeling insecure or frustrated from my dating life. Please don't stop giving advise / helping people back on track. Best of luck! Legend.

The friend zone is like purgatory. I like this lady's video's, but had to laugh when she said even she was in the friend zone. Once. Try being put in the friend zone literally dozens of times, like most men who aren't Chads or Tyrones.

People put themselves in the friend zone by not knowing what to do... there is no sense being friend with someone you want to get with

You never made your intentions clear... Take ownership of your actions. Also if you only staying because you hope she will magically she see you different one day, well she won't. Move on, invest in yourself and grow in all aspects of life.

Courtney, you are a genuinely good woman, whom I truly admire. You're authentic and wise beyond your years. Thank you for being one of the few voices of reason and of goodness on the internet. You are making a difference and creating a positive impact on people's lives. You might even be saving some lives out there.

These videos are fantastic, Courtney 🙂 The weirdest thing is I see this advice so often cut into two different categories - advice for men, advice for women - and yeah, to a degree that is true. But I just see the overall expectations as being...what you'd expect from people. Good on you for taking this unnecessarily complicated institution and explaining it for what it is! 🙂 PS: I've dated or corresponded with several women who carry significant baggage from past relationships. I've been single again for just over a year myself, after an emotionally unavailable girlfriend. My rule about that now is - if we haven't made peace with past relationships, we shouldn't be jumping into a new one.
