[@jbenk07]

Been married almost 10 years. And the best advice I heard about relationships came from a kid in college that was high 90% of the time. We were sitting at a table and one of our friends was complaining about his current girlfriend. And they were all petty complaints. Our high friend said in his relaxed tone, “man… I hear you. But you know, it will always be like that and I find myself always looking for the next relationship, or I could just enjoy the current relationship to its fullest.” The table was very quiet after that.

[@ryebread447]

Crazy right? Focus ur mind and energy on enjoying it to the fullest wull work out better yet many don't

[@masubee4148]

Woman here - confirm regarding we want someone who is kind and supportive. Having a relatively stable man with a good head on their shoulders and sense of humor is really all we need. Dating apps have pros and cons but I agree with it creating a “grass is possibly greener” mindset which prevents both party’s from giving it a real shot.

[@ryans7097]

Props to you for not forcing a relationship or feeling the pressure to get in one if you didn’t feel the timing in your life wasn’t right and you wanted to feel more established.

[@gimlarquinn3622]

My 2 cents for a happy relationship. * be honest with each other * be intentional with the time you spend with each other * be considered of each others struggles * discuss your finances with each other * want to help your partner develop, succeed and grow personally and or their career. * have similar interest when it comes to intimacy * be kind to yourself and your partner. You are going to f things up at some stage, but if you have done the above it will merely be a stumble in the relationship and will make you stronger. *

[@Dr.Mzungu]

Relationship is not about you it’s about we. It’s like I am a safe driver, till you’re blindsided.

[@TaylorBell]

Wow some really spot-on commentary on the challenges of modern dating. Have felt these things too and it's become so clear to me how much better IRL interactions are (usually). And couldn't agree more that the right person will come along when you least expect it if you're doing all the things to improve YOURSELF as a person first (and putting yourself out there, also important). You got this Big H

[@humphrey]

[@jillmorrison9883]

As one of the women that is subscribed to your channel (and a tad older than you lol), we just want someone we can trust, that isn't going to gaslight us, be supportive and have a great sense of humor. There are always these superficial people who only care about money and things. I'm sure she is out there and you will meet her when its time 💗

[@marvilgalisa2251]

or better stay single. lol

[@destinyschild5768]

I agree! I’m in my 20s so I don’t expect a guy to have a lot of money because I don’t either and have just started my career. It would be nice to build with someone but it’s hard these days because many people don’t want to commit and want to stay in their own lane so it feels like easier to just stay single.

[@hannathehappynomad]

Exactly. I'm turning 38 soon. I would date someone compatible earning ok money. I think wise people understand that money can't be the glue. However, I run into the same problems: where to meet decent men. I don't want to use apps. I don't even use social media. On the other hand, I'm very fulfilled with my life. I have pretty much everything, except a romantic partner.

[@HybridCalisthenics]

I clicked on this video half expecting Humphrey to show how strategically staying single has increased his net worth 😂 Jokes aside, I'm lucky enough to be married but I have to ponder a lot how much luck played a factor. I'm all about self-improvement, introspection, etc. However, I met my wife before starting the work I do today. Had that not happened, I wonder how likely it would be for me to date today. I also commonly say "If it weren't for the existence of one person, I'd probably be single right now." and also think that's true. Sometimes we just haven't met the right person, I think. If I could give advice to my single self, I'd try to give him the confidence to recognize that. In some ways, it's quite hard! Still watching the video as I'm typing this, but I think a lot of people can find the video relatable. Very interesting topic!

[@TIB1973]

[@Shangrila825]

Happily married woman here 🙂 You brought up good points! Just give it time and the right lady will come into your life. I do think one factor that is important in a relationship is making sure that your partner has a similar mindset when it comes to money and handling finances. My husband and I openly talk about spending habits, financial goals and everything in between. I think it’s a huge factor in building trust, confidence, and openness in our relationship.

Humphrey, what a great video. I have been watching your videos for a while now and didn't realize you were single. I think you are adorable! I am far too old for you and probably live too far away, in Chicago, but I think this was a great testament to a "good" guy who is willing to put himself out there and actually meditates and journals about becoming a better person. You are more than good enough as you are Humphrey. Good luck on your journey to love :)

[@humphrey]

thank you

[@IGoWumbo]

Met my now wife on Tinder and I feel so blessed everyday to have miraculously found someone with the exact same outlook on life and values as me. My previous relationships all started with common interests, and with my wife we had very few to begin with (read: none). Those things can build and grow over time, but it’s much more difficult to adjust views on money, family planning, and career. Once you have that compatible foundation I feel that the rest of those relationship “pieces” can be obtained with a little elbow grease. Thanks for sharing Humphrey, and good luck out there!

[@pennypingu]

Same here! Met my wife on Tinder in 2020. She had no "slutty" pics and that was probably how I found a good one. Kindest girl I ever met. We now have identical twin boys...and two rental properties too haha. Bless Tinder.

[@mikezerker6925]

I'm better off single... Dating over the span of 15 yrs (20-35) was a drain on my physical, mental and emotional health, not to mention all the money I wasted on dates... I gave up dating and now I'm wealthier than I've ever been with zero stress and at peace!! I have embraced my single lifestyle.

[@jFlowers598]

Woman here. While there are women that want someone that makes money, i was one that wanted to find someone that believed in personal growth and has realistic expectations about money and the amount of work it takes. I was also, and still am, someone that was going to compete in salary and my significant other would be a partner and be ok if i made more sometimes. An equal partner with an open and growth mindset who was kind was the most important thing and i found him pretty quickly through online dating. Weve been together for 10 years, each making nice tech salaries and still argue over whos paying when we have shared accounts. Find someone who's kind and who wants to be an equal partner, then check their ambition. Youll be good approaching it like that.

@@pentrubarbatiThe word partner literally means two people engaging in the same activity. So nope not at all a problem to say partner for an intimate relationship. Both should be supported, loved, and both give and take from each other. The way you say it makes it seem like she’s a slave to take care of everything and what she wants doesn’t matter.

I did my own version of speed dating in 2012, quick coffee shop dates after meeting on apps that gave me good insight to see if I wanted to go on a second date. Then I found my soon to be husband and we talked and texted for two days straight. I actually went to his house for our date (on a military base so it was safe-ish lol) and we started talking about marriage after two weeks and got married after six months. This coming May will be our 11th anniversary. Sometimes you can over analyze a potential relationship to death before it even gets started and you forget to just be in the moment and feel if someone is right for you. There is no perfect person, there’s just two people that are committed to loving each other first. Trust me, after a decade, you will be different people no matter what you do. You need someone to that will change with you, support you, and always be your biggest fan. ❤

[@cristinab2263]

I'm an outlier, but I've been with my husband since high school. Timeline: met in 2007, started dating in 2009, married in 2021. When we started dating, both of us were broke as a joke and his family was facing the threat of foreclosure, but I had faith in him. I used to ask my dad to help pay for his SATs or AP exams since my dad always believed in education. My husband has always been intelligent and prinicipled, and even when he was unemployed or making little money, it was true that he had direction. Same for me. I wasn't always making much financially, but I kept studying and pushing forward with my MSN. Now, our household income is $200k, and this is from a couple who spent their first date sharing a combo at Carl's Jr.

[@dero2430]

[@mocheen4837]

I met my wife in San Francisco when I was 23. We were both broke and decided to move out together. We were fortunate to be able to find good jobs and purchase a home. We have been together for 30 years and have two kids in college. We were also able to save enough in a 529 plan to cover each of their college costs. Now we are on track to retire early. I am not sure if I necessarily want to. retire in the Bay Area though. The homelessness, crime, traffic, high taxes, cost of living and rude people all make me want to relocate.

As a women, I really appreciate your perspectives. I think one of your best qualities going into dating is that you acknowledge the emotional work in yourself to be a better partner and how that matters more than your income. I think you're spot on that women want to be with someone who has a positive mindset that they can grow in life with.

[@yourhollywooddream]

You provide a good talking point with this video! I got together with my partner when we were still young, he was still in undergrad, I had just graduated and so we never expected that the other would financially take care of the other for trips or dates or whatever it is, but we went through it anyway. There will be people out there who wants their partner to be financially stable when they first start dating, but there is something about growing together when you’re young (and financially unstable lmao) to when you finally can be financially stable together. Absolutely agree with finding a partner that has the good characteristics that you described! Also, I wouldn’t completely knock dating online lol! I’m biased since that’s how I found my partner, but we would never have crossed paths otherwise (even if we were in the same area hah!).

[@valerieewing4023]

I agree with this post. Definitely let the fear of rejection fall to the way side. Every "no" gets you to "the one" faster.

[@RedSky8]

That advice would have worked 5 years ago. But for a lot of guys nowadays, it's the fear of being labeled a creep and either getting chastised in public or online. Guys like him also have a public figure to uphold and some woman overreacting like that could be very bad for him. So in general guys are taking a huge character risk in just making eye contact with the wrong woman. Plus we've heard y'all don't wanna be bothered when you're out just chilling. Really it makes more sense for women to approach or make the first move now.

[@backliteyes]

@@RedSky8 I don’t think this worst case scenario is very likely, especially if you’re polite and accept rejection with grace. In any case, at some point you have to take some risks in life. It’s very rare someone is crazy enough to label you a creep and then stalk you in order to ruin your life just because you asked them out. You can definitely wait for women to approach you if that’s the strategy you want to take, you do you. I don’t think that’s going to be as successful. In that case I think the risk of nothing ever happening is a lot higher than you running across someone crazy.

Excellent video. I would concede in my younger years I felt I needed to be financially successful first before embarking on any meaningful relationship or else who would want to date me? Like yourself I have spent an inordinate amount of time throughout the years focusing on my career and I'm in a great place because of it. I've had many long-term relationships that ultimately failed for one reason or another. I haven't had any long-term relationship in about five years. I'm actually content being single but I would love to have a significant other. With the proliferation of all these dating apps it's hard to really meet anyone given the abundance of choices that people have. I find it rather humorous that there are many women on these dating apps who post a laundry list of qualities that they demand in a man yet they bring nothing to the table. I'll preface that I am not talking about all women, but there is certainly a large segment of women out who just want to be taken care of and will only date a man for financial reasons.

[@michiganman4398]

It’s downright dangerous to approach women in public anymore. Myself I enjoy not being in jail too much to risk interacting with the average modern woman. I don’t interact with them unless necessary at work and I definitely don’t mentor female interns anymore. There is nothing but risk there

[@33Jenesis]

Your journey of dating is pretty relatable and sounds real. I am retired single no kids. A good marriage a lot has to do with luck, meeting a person with mutual attraction, similar values, long term goals, and matching life style. Even then, illness and accident can break up the union. Don’t be too picky and enjoy each day together. Wish you luck.

It has been and is far easier to prioritise my career, not date, and spend all my time with my family and solid friends, hobbies, travel, pets, etc.

The struggles that women go through in online dating is different for men. Online dating is amplified. Just about all women online have tons of options. Men, (even fairly decent looking ones) have very limited options online vs in person. Women have to deal with creeps online who would not otherwise approach them in real life. Even the most average looking woman is bombarded with messages (good and bad) by tons of men. Online dating does not work for the vast majority (bottom 75 %) of men.

[@SK1MD]

Resonates for single women as well

[@humphrey]

Exactly.

[@katieandportland3498]

Speaking as someone happily married for 5 years with 2 awesome kiddos, I think you pretty much nailed it. I don’t think income matters all that much as long as you’re aligned in your values (e.g., FIRE asap, enjoy life to the fullest right now, have a large family with lots of kids, one partner being the financial breadwinner so the other can prioritize child rearing, etc.) and your partner makes enough to take care of themselves and isn’t looking to be a drain in any way. I also love what you said about having a growth mindset and passion/ direction being more important than having everything figured out right now. That is definitely true! I hope you find what you’re looking for! Having the right partner in life is so important, a tremendous gift.

[@jakefarmer3122]

You just nailed all of the talking points on "men going their own way". Not sure if that's intentional or not but I hope you find someone!

[@VieSun-m8e]

As a woman, I did look for someone with similar values, morals and communicates well. Unfortunately, while LA is a fun place to be, dating in LA is not fun. I think being happily single is good. If I meet someone that is happy as well and we can be happy together, even better.

[@ashlamccammon4196]

Effort is very attractive. Money is important, sure, but it’s not everything. I date them for as they are now, not what they say they’ll become. I’d say focus on cultivating friendships and growing yourself, the rest are side quests, and the relationship will come when you least expect it. Best of luck

[@humphrey]

thank you for your comment! :)

[@Evanmessy]

Great advice, I agree!

[@reseking6119]

You’re a stand up guy Humphrey! When you find your partner she will be very, VERY blessed. Appreciate your honesty and btw, You’ve really helped me to understand my finances and plan for retirement. Thank you!

[@drifter389]

bro your not half bad you could probably pull on of them insta baddies

[@humphrey]

wow thank you my brotha

[@Bella_0303]

😂😂 this comment made me laugh. What exactly is an insta baddie? 😅

[@Porcelynnn]

@@Bella_0303he said “insta baddie” which are girls who have thousands of followers and are very pretty/hot/cute

[@DCuerpoJr]

I can relate. When I was 26, I thought I found “the one” but broke my heart when I discovered she cheated. I moved on to focus on my career and get my life back together for the next ten years. Eventually found “the one” and got married two years ago at 38

[@finurra3905]

aww Humphrey If I could hook you up with my bestie who lives in San Francisco I would but she's also still single since every little thing gives her the ick about a guy...the paradox of choice is really killing relationships. It's the reason I'm barely engaged in my 30's as I was busy chasing the "perfect" man all of my 20's. What a waste of time. I really hope you can find love and someone to continue to build with!

[@Moises_Ramirez]

Thank you for making this video! It’s always a breath of fresh air to see people who I feel have the same views about life as I do.

[@FoodieWarrior]

MGTOW is a growing trend. 😢

[@XAUCADTrader]

We were forced into it...Can't believe how long it took (decades) for men to realize the dating/marriage system is broken and to change their behaviour. Think the internet allowed men to exchange notes, and free/shameless porn.

[@stevengtv]

I relate this this so much. I’m in my 30’s and have been single most of my adult life minus my early 20’s. Things have changed so much with dating over the past 10 years and it’s tough out there. At this point I enjoy being single but that is looked down on by most of society.

[@vahangood5999]

The blue pill is still strong in this one... 🤣

[@joyyyy777]

Well said. I'm resonated with you. The fact that you are passionate and have a growth mindset is more important than what you earn today.

[@FredMeyer-no3ji]

You work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K in a meme coin from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires.❤️

Thanks for this video. This is a sincere and relatable content indeed - makes dating feels more hopeful too hearing that guys look for similar things we do. Yes, confirming on what you say near the end of the video that you’re right on what we ladies [generally] look for. Don’t worry about not understanding what we think ever, just be there to support us and shower us with care. The support and care each woman wants will be different, so just have the conversation with your future girlfriend then - hope this perspective helps. Good luck !

[@DrSkrungle]

Women step up

[@humphrey]

yessss

[@NguyenNguyen-sn8re]

I'm on the same boat: immigrant, working on my career and building a better me. I think it's better to have relationship in your 30's when you're already mature enough to know about yourself clearly. Great thing takes time. Best of luck Humphrey!

[@Saixjacket]

What do you think about the concept of Sheng Nu then

[@diabolox1272]

Because it's cheaper.....😂

[@humphrey]

LOL

[@charmedcole2007]

Hi. Admittedly, this was an unexpected video for me but I'm glad you made it. I'm a 35 year old female and I've always been single. I didn't have good relationships modeled to me when I was a kid and I basically just dived into education and making a career, putting personal life on a back burner. Now I feel like I don't even know what I'm doing as I'm just starting online dating and so far, the results are not encouraging. And a huge part of the equation is my own lack of self confidence in the dating world. We've sadly all got our own demons to deal with ☺️ Good luck on your search to all those still searching for your other half!

[@rhezamaep]

I can’t believe I’d learn something from your channel about dating.😆 It’s good to learn things from a man’s perspective. I’ve always thought that meeting people face-to-face is better than online dating, but I think that’s just close to impossible nowadays. Love this video and I completely agree with what you said. Attitude and values > money. ❤

[@zizey1745]

You're very handsome! Which is why people find it hard to believe. I'm in a similar boat, but I've lost interest in dating for 5 years and Ive been celibate. Its rather nice!

[@lindalee6960]

I totally agree with you. It's so much harder to date. Good luck.

[@thebookofbrenda]

Answering the question at 8:55 At least for me all that you're saying is correct. It's financially hard on all of us nowadays, and while it's nice to dream of a sugar daddy to solve all our financial woes, as I get older I notice I care a lot more about a guy's character (especially if I'm going to be spending the next X amount of decades with him). Is he disciplined, reliable, and dependable? Does he have values he strives to uphold, and approaches challenges with a growth mindset? Is he open-minded? Even if he doesn't have the money now, do I see he has a plan and is actively executing on it? (in reference to what you talked about ambition and a good head on their shoulders) Do I feel safe and comfortable around him? Do we approach problems as a team instead of unreasonably blaming the other? And ultimately, do we get along and share the same excitement for life? Can I see us building out something together? Poor finances is often a point of contention in relationships. Having a certain level of solid financial standing helps avoid that. But beyond that, yeah -- all of the above about character holds true.

[@faithhope3236]

Thank you for sharing your experiences and your transparency in presenting them. Now I understand my son better.

[@lei_cao]

very good understanding of reasonable women nowadays. Humphrey, you should come to China for the top girls in the world with much much less competition in the supply side of guys.

[@pie-ee9702]

Thanks for being so honest about your feelings. This makes you more relatable than just some successful investor on KZbin 🥰

[@humphrey]

I appreciate that!

[@LarryCheungCFA]

What an amazing video by Humphrey!!!

[@Jessica-dg7gj]

I agree. I don’t believe a person can be an equal contributor to a healthy relationship until they are happy with who they are and where they are in life. Once those issues are resolved or resolved satisfactorily, the couple can move on and achieve life goals as a team. 😊

[@DallinBunnell]

Great video! I think you've got it figured out, you'll get there :) I'm grateful that I got married young and in college because I didn't feel like I had to "prove" anything. All I cared about was a) do I like this person/ like spending time together b) do we have common values c) can we communicate and work through problems and d) can I love this person and build a life together.

[@barbarad6751]

You're a real gem! I found you trying to research ideas on investing, etc, and saw this video. I wish more men had it as together as you do. Youre 100% correct on your opinions and beliefs. Keep up the meditating and the high vibes. It will all fall into place. I subscribed, so I'd love to see an update when you connect with someone worthy of you! ❤ Now, back to learning all I can about investing these days. It has changed so much since the 80's and 90's. I'm not willing to take such risks as before. Keep up the great work!😊

[@nativegate]

Excellent! Thank you for this. All points valid. Too bad society is so into social apps... Currently 8 months into being single and mostly happy, focusing on career.

[@SurendrenApparoo]

Humphrey, you approached this video like one of your investing videos.... Lighten up, dude!

[@DecentVibes]

Thanks for this, i have been prioritizing my career in juggling full time CS job and learning wealth building from your videos. This wealth of knowledge made me picky in the partner that i would prefer, like a financially and mentally stable person. No luck with online dating so im focusing on meeting people in person for chemistry, but lets see how 2024 goes!

[@Alexia7300]

Humphrey, you are spot on! I was not expecting this video but loved it. So genuine. The dating pool is a zoo nowadays especially with online dating where no one seems real. If I wasn’t a bit older than you, oh well. Best of luck to you!😍
