Why it's so Difficult to Find Love in Barcelona

[@marcosanalisis]

Barcelona local here. Now I live in Madrid. I travelled to more than 60 countries. What I can tell you, as a sort of summary, is that Barcelona to Spain is to what Dubai is to the Middle East. Barcelona is not “the real Spain”. Is just a playground for gringos, expats and digital nomads that want to experience the city short-term, for the most part. Catalans stay out from Barcelona centralized areas. Walking around Barcelona can feel that 70% of the people you cross are foreigners. It gets tiring at times, that vibe of feeling a local minority. But its a beautiful and fun city to experience, anyway. But not the most appealing place to settle down.

[@k91pl]

Spreading stereotypes 👎

[@ValeriaH-m8l]

I agree with that. I personally have lived in Madrid and I liked it a lot more, but it's because it was more authentic, local, Spanish, and foreigners who didn't adapt fully (fluent Spanish, adapt to the culture, etc) left pretty quickly because it wasn't set up for them the way Barcelona is. I would never live in Barcelona. I also just vibed with Madrid people so much more but I'm not super left wing so that might be why.

[@Thebluesky0311]

Sounds like your playing the victim card here. Barcelona is plenty of spain, and every big city is a playground! LOL

[@edefournas]

I agree ! I have been living and working in Barcelona for 4 years and it's a terrible city for long term or serious relationship. Here it's a city of butterflies 🦋 and ghosting. There are so many options and the expatriate life is huge in Barcelona. It's a city within the city. Many people feel alone in Barcelona despite the fact that they can meet or date a lot of people.

[@jakoflynn2560]

I settled and I loved it 7 years had great close friend group. But one of the deal breakers long term is to feel at home Catalans oblige you to learn Catalan. So the focus is on can you speak Catalan rather than are you a good person. With hindsight I would have learnt to speak Catalan just to make more of life there. Catalan women are money focused material cold and lack passion. That’s not an issue as there are plenty of amazing women from other cultures.

[@francescmoramarchal]

What an interesting piece of sociology in this video! After dating for more than 2 years with a French woman (I'm born and raised in Barcelona), what I can say is that I completely agree with what the American guy said about foreign people: They just hang out with people from their own countries, and as a result, their adaptation is zero. They're just creating their own ghettos here in Barcelona and trying to "squeeze" the benefits without making any effort to understand the culture… And obviously, this affects the personal relationships they have.

[@jakoflynn2560]

[@ingridgg93]

I honestly believe the big problem with modern dating is this hook up culture that has been extended worldwide, not only in Barcelona. As a Catalan who's been living in Bcn for +10 years and dated guys from multiple nationalities, I can really affirm is not "a Barcelona thing", it's a deeper social and cultural problem. We are living in the era of fast-love, making no f* effort, treating people like objects, and connecting with others in a superficial level. (Also, this "casual sex culture thing" is more of a men's game, a lot of times related to their need of validation, poor values and weak self-steem.)

[@maurogalarza4041]

Hook up culture >>>

[@jeanlundi2141]

Lol I was with you until you said it's more of a men's game. You haven't been paying attention. Unless Barcelona girls are totally different from everywhere else in Europe.

[@bikefax8177]

You missed the point about men. Watch Fresh and Fit to get a better idea

[@Kabirio93]

Everyone needs validation. Humans are made for validation each other. If a woman accept hook up also her self esteem is "low". Its not about men only. Both men and women can have "poor values" or actually "no values" at all (which is very frequent.)

[@ValeriaH-m8l]

Yeah it's a worldwide problem for sure. I personally think women need to stop being so casual about sex though. I know it's not totally our faults but we shouldn't be going around having sex with everyone and anyone just to have a good time. I'm super conservative with that but I know so many girls who have sex on the first date with EVERYONE they date, so of course men now expect that. And I do not have sex on the first date, I need much more and exclusivity is required. So when you operate like that in a world full of women who don't value their bodies at all, how the hell are women like us supposed to compete with that? Then these people end up in dysfunctional relationships that break up anyway and you have tons of damaged people. I personally do not have an interest in dating people like that, so there's less options. Barcelona is a hedonist's paradise too though. There's an element of your environment impacting you. My hometown in Canada is conservative (no, I don't mean alt-right, I mean the true sense of conservative). I don't fully agree with everything and I hate some of the way people can be too judgmental, but one good thing is that the men pursue women for serious relationships. They know they can't just text a girl and get sex, because most women respect themselves a bit more than that. Really, we all shape things. We women have an impact on men too. I get so frustrated with women who think "I can just do anything, they should still respect me" - that's not the point. Yes, do what you want, but realize you're ruining it for other women.

[@yasser7139]

Thank you so much for this insightful video! I’ve become a huge fan of your content. It’s not just educational; it’s incredibly eye-opening because it gives us a chance to see different parts of the world and learn about a variety of cultures. While it’s focused on dating culture, your videos offer much more there’s always something new to learn, and I truly appreciate the hard work you put into them. Regarding Barcelona, I don’t think the situation you described is exclusive to that city. In fact, cities like Montreal, New York, and Berlin seem to have similar dynamics. Open relationships and the desire to avoid commitment are becoming increasingly common in many large Western cities. It’s not just younger people in their 20s who are engaging in this lifestyle many people in their 30s and 40s are also embracing it. It seems that age is no longer a defining factor in these trends. Many people are still looking for stability and genuine connection, but others are trying to have the best of both worlds seeking love and sex without the responsibility of commitment. It’s a tricky balance, and I don’t think we can generalize too much. Even in a city like Barcelona, you’ll find all types of people: those looking for love, those seeking casual sex, some in open relationships, and others wanting commitment. Big cities offer a wide range of experiences and mindsets. It’s challenging for both men and women alike. Men also struggle with finding committed relationships. What saddens me, though, is that many people today seem to reject traditional values, viewing them as outdated or uncivilized. I disagree with that perspective. To me, traditional values aren’t about oppressing women or dominance; they’re about mutual respect, genuine love, and building a meaningful relationship not just about partying or casual sex. Personally, I’m not into the party scene, and I value deep conversations and authentic connections. However, it’s difficult to find like minded people who share these values. If you don’t drink, engage in casual sex, or follow the modern social trends, it can feel isolating, and people might even ghost you. But this issue isn’t unique to Barcelona it’s something that happens everywhere, unfortunately. At the end of the day, I believe in the freedom of choice. Everyone has the right to live their life as they see fit, but it’s definitely tough for those of us who prefer a more traditional approach to relationships. It’s a challenge, to say the least.

[@ValeriaH-m8l]

I agree. The Catalans in the video are the most well-adjusted people in the video... and I always hear internationals in Barcelona complain about how Catalans are closed off to them. Of course they are lol. I don't blame them! So many insane internationals go to live in Barcelona. It's similar to where I live, how a lot of the foreign nationals are often not well-adjusted people, or only moved for economic gain (and therefore don't care at all about their community or the impact they have on it) or are bringing their dysfunctional cultural mindsets in. I think a lot of people in the world are tired of the constant change and "newness" of all these cultures. People generally want to be around people with similar values. Barcelona folks who are from Catalonia are probably just tired of it.

I like to study sexology, couple- and dating science, and most studies show that a bit less than half of all people are non-monogamous in some way (gender non-specific). So, in a culture such as the ones in Berlin and Barcelona where everybody appear to engage in non-commiting relationships, some people will struggle/suffer. Then, I really have to stop and ask: when is freedom NOT freedom? Eg. we misconstrue hedonism and freedom by equating it to impulsive indulgence, which is not good for us all the time.

[@davidsmerkler]

Hey Marina. Congratulations on your video. Very realistic view of some of Barcelona. I have lived here for over 36 years now. I think I can truthfully say that Spain and most of the Barcelona metropolitan region is fairly conservative and traditional (not religous conservative, but conservatism born out of an originally religous culture.) What most visitors do not realise is that they are visiting a part of Barcelona which is only a fraction of the metropolitan area and this part (although it has grown in size) is essentially a playground for visitors. Barcelona's old city and some other areas are just a playground where you can buy drugs, alcohol and sexual services at very cheap prices. Barcelona and its politics is incredibly woke. The lack of seriousness in relationships does not extend to most of the locals. It is the laid back, woke, playground atmosphere that makes it this way. However, I don't think it is necessarily unique, just overwhelming in those parts of Barcelona where the population is transient. I think most major cities struggle with this situation. It's a combination of people not living in communities, "wokism", false ideas about feminism and consumerism which has transformed into an "instant gratification" culture. One can instantly gratify oneself with shopping, food, drugs and sex and this is what is happening in many parts of the world. This in turn produces addictions and compulsive behaviour.... I think that just means more lonely people in our big cities... Looking forward to anybody's comments. Kind regards.

[@ValeriaH-m8l]

I visited Barcelona this year as I had a job offer there & I immediately declined once I went to visit. The vibe of the city is just off. It's literally built for tourists at this point (I feel bad for Catalan people), you see all the international people from a certain region of the world going in to buy everything. I did once live in another city in Spain and had a great time but it was far more local-oriented, you're forced to speak Spanish, and it's more conservative so it's not so hedonistic. I could never live in Barcelona. Maybe 30 years ago since I heard it was great back then, but globalization has really ruined a lot of places. It's similar here in Vancouver... with all the foreigners moving here and confusing the culture, it's ruining dating even more. The reality is, people generally want to date people of similar understandings to them, that often means growing up in the same country or with similar values and it's much harder to find likeminded people when there's a lot of "multiculturalism" (but specifically when it's people who grew up in different countries, because if you have more ethnicities it's really not an issue if everyone grows up similarly in the same sort of area, kind of like how NYC thrives but Canadian cities don't as much, because Americans make you become American first... as Canadians, we should really start adopting this mindset because you can't have divided people live in the same place for too long, it doesn't work).

From all the videos I've watched from you (and I've been following your channel since 2021), THIS is truly the 1st and only one where I can say: "I didn't enjoy watching it." After this video I got the impression that Barcelona is messed up when it's about dating and relationships with true and real commitment. In the end where you said it's getting harder for the people over 30 or 35 to find something serious eventually, to me it's like karma or the consequences of your own actions. And then the stupid reason: "People come and go from different places and countries. And like around 25% are foreigners of the barcelonian population." So what? You got foreigners in different countries too and I don't think it's that hard to find out whether they're tourists or residents. If you know, then don't stick to the tourists if you don't like it. And the last point you mentioned about the commitment-problem in the end of the video: Yes, how can I be sure that such a person is still capable of committing to me? After already not being able to see committing as an option in their 20s and not having/wanting sth. serious? I'm so glad that I grew up in a conservative environment. Because if being liberal means things like those in your video, then I don't want to be any part of it.

If these women who complain about men's lack of commitment would look at “normal guys” and give them a chance, they would see that there are many guys who want and seek serious relationships.

I feel like we just like to look at dating like watching the flowes without taking into consideration the fruit. By now we should know that it got too easy to fulfill wishes ( feeling loved having stability having support family) outside of relationships ( by friendships food delivery services and so one). Lets try to discover if the last realm of procreation ( sperm plus egg cell) and raising up kids does somehow involve two persons still ( mum dad partner partner or what ever).

I thought most catalans only dated other catalans, at least is what I heard, yes people say Spanish women are easier than Portuguese women still didn’t know polyamorous relationships were common there, seems like the Japanese where going to “the ladies” isn’t cheating.

Dating is not hard for women , they just all want the same guys.

[@MooseWombleMole]

It's the same problem as everywhere, women have endless options, they can't get a guy to commit because they want the most popular men. These men don't have to commit because they're getting what they want out of the relationship, and there's nothing that sets these women apart from the majority for them to want to date them longer term. Women can get a casual relationship with the most desirable men, but the men looking for a serious relationship they don't deem worthy, they don't even realise what's happening because these men are invisible to them. Interview these men and you'll get a very different story.

@@MooseWombleMole As a man that's been with MANY women from MANY different countries , everything you say is true.

[@ddrid854]

Yes 80% of men are invisible to women that keep dating and switching men from the top 20%

[@anetak.9494]

​@MooseWombleMole absolutely not true. Women go for the average guy and he will fail her just as much.

[@diofromyozgat]

Thats not true at all lol. Its like saying man only like/go for blondes with big breasts

"Spain, Spain, Spain.." "Here in Spain blah, blah" "Women in Spain, men in Spain". Catalonia is NOT neither "Spain" nor "France" and we Catalans are NOT "Spanish" nor "French"! Full stop. Just as Irish are not English, Ukrainians are not Russians, Japanese are not Chinese..and so on. Please put that in your head and your mind. Thanks 🍋🍅🍋🍅🍋🍅🍋🍅🍋

Catalonia is a Spanish region, Castilian is the language most commonly used in Catalonia, and in the last regional elections only 42% of Catalans voted for separatist options. The nationalist stories about Catalonia not being Spain, or about Catalans not being Spanish, are increasingly losing ground. Furthermore, it would not even make sense to say that Catalans who have Catalan as their mother tongue (many, but not the majority) are not Spanish, because there is no ethnolinguistic criterion to determine whether someone is Spanish or not, but rather it is based on Spanish citizenship, but that is another debate. Catalonia is legally Spain, Catalans (from Catalonia, I do not include here the people from French Roussillon) are legally Spanish, the majority of Catalans feel Spanish, and the majority language is the same as in the rest of Spain, despite the autonomous education system. Then..."blanco y en botella".

@@elkrim8936 whatever, the history of Catalonia shows it always was a Spanish territory a principality that was under Aragon. Catalans are not any more special then galicians, valencians or asturians. The people who are different are the Basque so sit on that for a while and stop whining

Jeez, I just don't get the appeal of Barcelona. There is sooo many place in Spain and every tourist goes there its over done. I would like to explore Toledo, Pamplona, Galicia and Granada. Go look at Tarragona or Zaragoza instead of Barcelona. But Spanish men are not exactly known for initiating interest and just coming up to a woman. And many young Spaniards still live at home so don't be surprised they don't live on their own. The over tourism needs to stop there so the citizens can live in lower rent homes and there needs to be laws around Airbnbs and not people getting thrown out of their homes by landlords so they get turned into them.

[@Bharat_darshan00]

We need more places like this, we are close to 2025 yet we have a conservative mindset about these basic things called love and relationships. Just let people live their lives, let them go wherever they want , stop putting cultural and social boundations

[@anetak.9494]

Nope. Actually a lot of women are opting out from dating entirely because they are fed up with this development.

[@canchero724]

Have you tried living there? It's hell to build a relationship of any kind platonic or non platonic when people are this carefree about everything. If you're a person who needs genuine connection with other people, it's not a great place

[@einunbekannter498]

A year has nothing to do with anything. As I said before, if liberal/progressive means "relationships" like the ones here in the video, then I'd choose to be conservative every time. And to me polyamorism is cheating through the back door. And by the way, yes, I let such people live their lifes. But I DON'T HAVE TO clap the hands for that or celebrating it. Because for me that's messed up what's going on in Barcelona according to this video.

[@michelleg7]

@@einunbekannter498 no liberal does not mean having relationships like this! This type of behavior means no people want to do the work it takes to have a relationship, which is pure laziness and fear of being vulnerable and don't want to get hurt.
