    I'm 53 and newly divorced and single. Based on what I've experienced, the women my age are just as confused and filled with unrealistic standards as some of the young women here. I'm just going to focus on my hobbies and interests and forget about dating.

I'm not dealing with some controlling woman that also feels the need to compete with me in every aspect of our lives or is constantly comparing me to other people and looking for reasons that I'm not good enough. I've seen enough of that type of woman and I want no part of that ever.

    I'm 44. I was in a 7 year relationship in my 30s that included 5 years of marriage. My wife cheated on me when I was 40 so I left her. It's been rough. The last time I was single, dating was so different just because of technology. Smart phones were just coming out. There were no dating apps. Social media was in its infancy. I used to meet a lot of girls on the bus/train/ferry. Now everyone has their face in their smart phone. People are so much less approachable. I had zero luck with dating apps. I don't use social media other than KZread comments. We older guys remember a time when getting a girl's phone number actually meant something.

    You know, unless you really want kids, make money, do your own thing, have fun and stay single. I've been married 14 years now. Good gal, does not cheat, but she is zero support, zero caring, zero encouraging but plenty of put downs and criticism. In other words, other than the kids, a big zero. Men give up way too much for what they get today. With American gals anyway, I've had friends that were happy with their filipina gals, they are more traditional. Believe it or not, they actually value men in their lives, not just use them.

No woman has the ability to be financially stable, sure there is variation between different women, but it's nothing compared to a man's financial stability (men don't fall for impulse purchases or propaganda 100% of the time like women do, they can plan for the future, etc.) it's like comparing how well a dog can build a car compared to a man - it's just an entirely different world. As for intelligence, all women's brains stop developing at 14, it's the same as the financial stability, you are filtering for a woman who will do the least damage with her harmful ideas (because all of them have them). You have the correlation completely backwards with a woman's level of education and the health of her children.

    After my divorce I took a long hard look at myself and did what I needed to change the way I reacted to life in general. When I met my future second wife I wasn't shy in telling her my wants and desires. It wasn't how much she made or how successful she was. In the end we both wanted someone to come home to and just listen, someone to pick up the slack when the other couldn't. Love speaks loudest in actions not words. When I come home and the house is messy I will clean it. When I forget to take the trash out she does it. Most importantly we talk to each other, no mind reading allowed. Love one another out there.

Women with no jobs expect 6 figure incomes, women who are “6-7s” are expecting a guy who is a “10” & dating apps have made dating toxic and expectations unrealistic. I’ve dated women who claimed they were “strong career driven, don’t need a man attitude” and yet when they bills came, I always paid them and she always “had to go to the bathroom” after multiple dates. I called her out on it after the 5th date and she claimed she was “traditional” when it came to dates and men paying, yet claimed she was making 6 figures working from home. That didn’t last. What women will realize is that they found nobody good enough and this often leads to depression in their late 40s/50s once they realized that they were arrogant in their 30s/early 40s.

    Women have adapted this transactional "what is in it for me" attitude no one wants in a lover. That is the MO of a prostitute. A prostitute does not love you, it loves the money it gets from you. It is very sad when the prostitutes are more supportive than your "lovers" by simply not nagging and venting out on their partners. Just look at the violence stats of lesbian couples - pretty high. Instead of being supportive, wahmen obsess about money and start nagging hardcore as soon as your shared earnings no longer equal 150 % of hers.

Being competitive is nature's way of saying "yours and my interests are separate." This means that pairing up with modern wahmen like that gets you WORSE SERVICE THAN AN AVERAGE PROSTITUTE CAN DELIVER. No exceptions. To assess the genuineness of women today, you need extensive testing and they have to be the research kind of tests where the woman can not guess what you are testing her for. It takes a lot of effort to test every single wahman intelligently like that, which is why you cannot blame men for opting to do something genuinely fun and reliable instead, for example, self-indulging with video games. Video games are fun, funny and never nag you for long. Not to mention the single-mother households produce wahmen with non--fixable-tier daddy issues that lead to every single trash wahman behavior pattern including nagging.

    Yep. It's pure projection, and solipsism. That's what she's looking for in a man, so she believes that's what a man is looking for from women. [Really makes one question the female capacity for _empathy,_ as well]. This is only made worse because she's been fed the lie of "equality" (which equates to the absurd notion that men and women are essentially interchangeable, with no fundamental differences) all her life. Newsflash: we are *not* the same!

    Inversely, dating has gotten way easier for me as a man in my 30s! I get way more dates than I did in my 20s. However, I notice that women in their 30s are more driven by anxiety. I've dated lawyers, surgeons, scientists, etc. All successful women. I'm a professional myself, but not a big deal like some of these women. No, I'm not insecure about their success. I respect the hell out of anyone who pursues their goals. The reason why things ended with all of them is that they let their anxieties take over the relationship. Their biological clock is ticking, they know their looks aren't going to hold up forever, and if they want to have healthy children and healthy pregnancies, they gotta lock a man quickly. They want to do things fast. One of them said, "If you're not marrying me in 1 calendar year, I'm not interested." Another said, "I'm interested in immediately having children." Mind you, these women are gorgeous and professionals that are in excellent position to be mothers. But come on, why would I want that kind of pressure immediately? I'm a human, not some job position you can immediately go after. I will say that they also get more realistic with their demands from men. They start realizing that the traits in men that they looked for in their 20s don't matter as much. A lot of people get wiser as they get older, less superficial, and so on. But in my experience, these are the main things that'll work most for men in their 30s: educated, good job, no kids, decent looks. The same things you want from a woman, they want from you. Forget about the women who are looking for super specific traits in a checklist the size of a CVS receipt.

Hell, I don’t know a single woman (regardless of age) that prefers to be casually dated as opposed to having a boyfriend/husband. The real problem is, most young men are taught to run from commitment and instead spend their youth sowing their oats. It’s men that are taught to have fun then settle. Women have always been taught to prioritize serious commitment. If you notice young women giving up on that pursuit it’s because they realized boys their age aren’t serious.

    As a 32 year old married guy who has lived both the bachelor and married life, I can say these things from my perspective. Most women today have a dualistic sexual strategy, usually in their 20s they are winning in the dating game and men aren’t. So when men start to level up, they wanna make up for the lost time and also since men are not required to court women like they used to because sex is almost free nowadays, we are just reacting to the current situation. Men are masters at adapting, so we only react to what women allow. We see women get attracted to the Fboy or the guy with commitment issues so we become that. We see the nice guy get totally played so we avoid becoming that. Also with modern feminism being rife in society today, we don’t wanna be shunned for being more traditional men (modern women only want traditional values when it suits them). So ladies, it’s not the men, it’s (mostly) you.

    I just turned 40, and can honestly say dating has gotten far, far easier for me as I’ve aged. When you’re a man in his 20s, the women in the same age range typically go for the older men with more security, finances, and life experience - and I don’t necessarily blame them for this. However, once we reach our mid-late 30s we’ve now (hopefully) become that older man. Ergo, at 40 my dating pool is the largest it’s ever been. I can still attract women in their 20s, but also women around my age as well as older women. On the flip side, it becomes exponentially harder for women to date because we have so many more options. From a credible study I read recently: the age women peak in terms of desirability? 18. For men? 50. That’s a 32 year difference.

    @@1stMarDiv4341 It has been said, 'Men age gracefully. Women just get old.'. Thanks for the good feedback. About a decade before I joined the dance troupe that I'm presently a member of, I had been involved in another dance group and in a totally different type of dancing. Most of the ladies in that group were reasonable, but there were a few attitudes/drama queens who just had to be problematic. I have yet to encounter that from any of the ladies in the current dance group.

Literally, every positive aspect of our relationship, be it “trying what she wants even if it’s not my thing” or “her not making me feel like an idiot when I make a dumb mistake” stems from that single requirement!!! It literally leaves me speechless to see how so many individuals don’t get that!!!

    I think opportunistic Golddigger is a bit too cynical. Yes, there probably are some people who are golddiggers but the reality is having a portfolio of rental properties means that you don’t necessarily have a job, but have access to income. Yes, I know there is some labor involved, but you are not generally speaking trading time for income. In other words, you offer something much greater, and that is options. For instance, I run my own law practice. Going on vacation is stressful for me because it means leaving my work. For you, particularly if you are utilizing property management companies, this really isn’t as much of a concern. Therefore, the option of being able to travel or enjoy their remote working life with you is an option.

    @@kaiser8843 you shouldn't feel bad. For practically all of human history, stable marriages were started with women in their early to mid 20s at the latest. It's not an accident. The notion that dating should require a decade of 'exploring' to figure out what one values is absurd, and just another sign of the stunted development of most modern adults. Men in their early 20s were changing the world in the past. Women were starting large families. Now, it seems crazy for 'successful' people to start a family before 30. You're perfectly justified to not want to date women your own age when they failed to understand their own biology and the male psychology that their ancestors and prior cultures understood just fine. There are multiple reasons men who want healthy, monogamous relationships aren't focusing on women in their 30s with plummeting fertility, a decade plus of emotional baggage that no one man can remedy, and who knows how much sexual history that will absolutely threaten the health of a monogamous sexual commitment. Modern men have every incentive to pursue younger women who stand a decent chance to make healthy families, not cheat on their partner, and form a stable bond. Women have been lied to believing they can get away with behaving otherwise, and men aren't the bad guys for responding accordingly.

Respects me as an individual, my hobbies, and my friends and won't make me abandon them when they're a positive influence in my life. 4. Respects my money and is responsible with hers (when dating) as well as my own. That's it.

    You lost her at wanting to build a relationship toward marriage, the type of men women want typically do not openly say that because they are sought after by many women and saying that is like saying many women don't want to be your wife, which isn't attractive. Like when a woman says she doesn't want kids, no, she does, just has to be with HIM before she does, once she's with HIM, then she'll be ready for kids. Men of high value do that to women, but with marriage.

    The value of physical appearance and fitness is so understated these days. People don't want to put in the work, but they want someone who has and then blame the dating culture on their lack of success. You might be an absolute catch. But if the people you are attracted to aren't attracted to you, they won't be willing to find out.

    I'm 56, and knew the writing was on the wall by the time I was 20. After developing feelings for a female store clerk who worked across the street from my workplace when I was 29, I decided to give it one more try. It wasn't to be. I was left haunted for a number of years. In the wake of the devastation, friends tried to involve me with women....women I didn't want. I came to distrust set up attempts by people and now, after realizing I'm not going to be conned, they have learned to leave me alone.

Once I finally caught up with life financially, emotionally, health-wise, I started opening up and I probably just got really lucky but I found a man who's idea of life allign with mine incredibly well. From lifestyle to the major decisions to values and interests. Similar way of showing love and affection and great communication. I feel he meets every standard I had and didn't even think off. No compromise, just years of nothing but an absolutely blessing being part of each other's lives. The anxious little girl in me has been waiting 7y for the other shoe to drop but is hasn't.

    The 3rd one just made all my hopes of a relationship and a family in the future plummet. My ex had a similar list and I just happened to check like 90% of it. I know that people are allowed preferences, but these are shallow requirements based mostly on genetics and chance rather than a person's own qualities. The biggest issue is that girls like that usually don't hold themselves at that standard (my ex, like the girl in the video, was a smoker, and she didn't want a smoker), and that standard comes from a history of heartbreak, promiscuity or even abuse, and it doesn't tend to last long.

    There are a lot of people with insecure attachment in the dating pool (both men and women), and the older you get, the higher the percentage of those with insecure attachment style because all the secure ones tend to have paired up. I think everyone needs to work on healing their attachment wounds and becoming more secure in themselves. The more secure you are, the less likely you'll attract/be attracted to insecure types, and even if you don't find anyone your life will be all the better for it. It was the biggest life changer for me, and I'm in a happy healthy relationship for the first time in my life. According to research, most divorces are due to insecure attachment from either both or one of the partners. Most secure couples tend to stay together.

    Definitely do a video about the male perspective. I am 27 and single. I dated during most of my 20s. From my experience, it was challenging since I met most of those women through dating apps. Looking back, the positive relationships I had were with the women that I did not meet on the apps. I am currently taking a break from dating to focus on finalizing my education and to get ready to start my career. I am happy with that decision since I am starting to see the fruits of success. Eventually, I will get back into dating because I want a happy, healthy, fulfilling relationship with a woman. I hope and dream that I will meet a woman who wants the same thing, and who was also serious about her career goals and education. I don't know if dating will become more challenging for me, but I do know that I am not going to give up!

    An idealistic perception of modern women is very, very dangerous for men. Be under no illusions, a woman will be interested in you for as long as you have resources she can utilise and/or benefit from. The moment you lose your job, get sick, or whatever, she'll be off. And that's if she hasn't monkeybranched to a "better option" before. I had a similar outlook to you a few years back, and appreciate that the advice is probably not welcome, but look after and improve yourself first and foremost and be incredibly wary of any woman who comes into your life.

When it was a free app, I got more dates but the quality was bad and more women just wanted to 'test the waters' or play around and check temperatures as opposed to being committed to finding a partner. Looking bad I think it was a good experience using the free apps, as in dating practice and perspective, but all the good people were from paid sites.
