Buy my book, "The Value of Others" Ebook: amzn.to/460uGrA Audiobook: amzn.to/3YfFwbx Paperback: amzn.to/3xQuIFK Despite the development of several technologies to facilitate the experience, dating seems more challenging and confusing than ever. In point of fact, dating apps are making it harder to date -- though why this might be the case is a little counterintuitive. In this episode, which is based on an except of my book, I explain why fewer sexual relationships are being transacted in the age of dating apps using the concept of perceived supply and demand.

As a divorced man in my 40s--I tried online dating again and ran away in horror. The few matches were either younger women wanting an ATM ..or divorced older women (my age) giving me an extensive job interview for a job I didn’t even want (completely delusional to the fact that these women literally had nothing to offer). Or just a hard time to another guy since they couldn’t sufficiently torture the man she recently divorced any longer and needed a new victim

Let's face it, the only rational actor who benefits from dating apps it the dating app owner. The rest lives in inflated ego boosting illusion, regardless of the gender. Real people still stand higher odds of finding any sensible partner in real life and face to face situations. So good luck to you. As for females, those you seek probably ignore dating apps. Since yes, for them the experience is similar to yours.

Most men are looking for sex... Most women are looking for a relationship on dating Apps...and therein lies the problem. Somehow this video seems to suggest that women have the upper hand on these dating apps (maybe a certain category of women but definitely not all women)... My experience has been terrible. As a woman, if your profile (photos) aren't dripping sex from head to toe, you're essentially invisible to most men and for those that notice, if you aren't offering sex on the 1st or 2nd date, you're eliminated, deleted, ghosted... and off to the next available woman he goes. Imagine if I had to sleep with every single man who took me on a date... how many men would I have slept with in a week, month, or a year? The dating market is brutal! Quick Question: Can I pay for the Date and get to know a man without the pressure to reward/pay him back with sex? The expectation that a woman has to sleep with a complete stranger shortly after meeting him just because he paid for the date terrifies me.

You definitely shouldn't be sleeping with every man who takes you on a date, but you also shouldn't be agreeing to a date in the first place if you already know you'll never want sex with the man.

So if you know up front you won't ever have sex with him, turn down the date and don't waste your time or his.

I was divorced at 20, at the beginning of the disco craze, It was a great time to be single meeting women at the clubs, dancing, drinking, music, in 12 months dated 15 young ladies, feminism was not running rampant like now, there were still some girls that weren't into hookup culture. I met a 20 year old virgin, that knew who she was and where she wanted her life to go. Been married forever. I talk to my grandsons and look around at what women are doing nowadays and feel badly for young guys that want a healthy family. As they say, " the juice is no longer worth the squeeze. Then add in the fact that family law is anti male, I absolutely believe that men should no longer get married. The odds are heavily against a lasting relationship.

The best answer I see, is for both parties to stop negotiating for gain, and both start seeking real connection. Women need to stop expecting men to pay for dates and experiences, and just meet for coffee or a drink where they pay for themselves, and men need to go into these interactions not expecting sex, but to get t know the woman. Also, be prepared to mingle to potential person with friends to properly vet. 3rd parties observations do a great deal more in finding what works vs sexual sparks.
@mudblood9699Ай бұрын
Many if not most western women are not incentivized to act that way, they value the emotional experience of being gratified by a very sexually attractive man using them for sex over the value of a healthy relationship with someone on their level. The really sad part is when they get "stuck on their highest setting" and are then unable to have a healthy relationship with any guy who's actually willing to commit to them.

@damienfowler2358Ай бұрын
@VivatVeritas1 I think as a metaphor, it works because most people go into relationships specifically looking for gain. The current issue is a pandemic of loneliness. When loneliness is the central issue, then holding out for gain gets us nowhere. We've lost the days when 2 people would build a life together. Unfortunately, it's largely on women who now have their own careers and money to look more for connection over "sparks" or lifestyle. How men do their part is to do our best in trying to stop simping, stop trying to take care of women and let them be the empowered, independant women they claim to be, and let them pay for themselves. Society isn't going back to a time when women stayed home and had men take care of them. So we need to adjust to the fact that more competition and success in women means less favorable outcomes in personal lives.

Another problem with dating apps is that you can't observe the person you're interested in before you even approach them. Ten profile photos won't tell you what 10 seconds of looking at someone is person will. Their body type, how they treat others, how they dress in real life, etc... If all that information is not available and you just look at a profile, you are more likely to give people a chance that you might not otherwise have, thus leading to more failed relationships. It's like a recruiter going through thousands of resumes online versus meeting candidates in person at an open interview event. You're just relying on what the other person is willing to tell you about themselves, which is hardly 100% accurate and complete.

Also need to consider that most dating apps are sausage parties and that the ratio of men to women is very high. And the app's primary reason for existing is to make money, and nothing else. "Hey you see this picture of a girl? Well you can have her. You can message her if you subscribe for $50 a month to get a chance. $5000 if you want to get a special badge when she sees your message." And of course, most profiles are not real. They either are not active anymore or never was on the platform in the first place. And that doesn't even count scammers out there already, or the girls who are only there to promote their OF or whatever.

I understand your point here Orion, and I'm glad that you're here with this knowledge. For I myself don't have the time to break down each logical step or aspect to these various different corners of the dating and mating world. I'm gonna be honest though. For as much as this perspective and understanding might be more functional for many others who are coming from this angle, I am more classic and traditional in the sense that I ignore the ways this modern world runs and wait until relationships formulate on their own in a sort of synchronistic or happenstance way. I like to think of myself as a character in a story and treat everything I do with a sense of classical stories. Is that a painting of Jesus Christ on the cover of your book I see? Another thing I wanted to say regarding what you say about what each gender is willing to lose, or what they expect. I know you said that men would have more to lose since they would lose money, resources and therefore hard earned labour. But sexual encounters are not necessarily as cheap as one might suspect. Even though it costs no money or resources to have sex, exchanging fluids CAN cost someone. By having sex you are introducing all sorts of transmitted fluids into the body, which not only affects males but even more so females since they are more sensitive to their bodies as well as hypochondria. There's also the whole thing about reputation. Not to say that it's the be all end all or that people should take it too seriously, but it is something worth considering. But I'm sure you have thought about this all before. Trust me, I am a man and I understand how valuable my time, resources and labour is. But I also understand how sensitive women are to exchanging fluids as well, for certain past sexual experiences have continually negatively affected my health and psyche until this day.

I honestly think there's a bigger problem here which is kind of implicit in a lot of what Orion talks about, but isn't hit directly on the head. I figured out, to an extent, how to crack the code on dating apps. I have zero issues finding physically attractive women to date, who want relationships, etc. The problem is, if you crack that code, that you discover the real issue isn't that women aren't giving you the attention/chance you want. Instead, the problem is that women who have anything at all to offer besides their body are extremely, extremely, vanishingly rare. If you're just looking to hook up, which you really shouldn't be for so many reasons, it's great. Once you learn what to do, it's the easiest thing in the world - you just can't have a conscience. If you're looking for a real companion in life, a helpmeet, someone to work with you to create a family and become greater than the sum of your parts...... you're simply not going to find her on dating apps, because she's been married since her early 20s.

I recently noticed something about dating apps I should have seen a long time ago. I barely get any matches on dating apps, and rarely anything with an actually attractive woman that goes anywhere (even answering my messages). However, the vast majority of these women that are swiping left of me would not really interest me if I met them in real life, neither their looks nor their personality (or lack of). However, more attractive women are giving me "the look", flirting with me or actually making a move on me if I meet them in different contexts in real life. I have never been a fan of dating apps, but as a lone wolf type of guy that has been focused on myself and my stuff for years, I perceived it to be the easiest way to meet women. It seems obvious to me now that the best way is to meet women in real life, and that I really need to work on my social skills and social anxiety in order to do that. However, I live in a country where people really don't talk to strangers, and you are seen as a creep/weirdo if you do.
