Reminds me of a quote I saw once: "If you spend your time chasing butterflies, they'll fly away. But if you spend your time building a beautiful garden, the butterflies will come. And if they don't, you still have your beautiful garden."
Sitting alone in that beautiful garden doesn't seem nice to me. Actually, not 'seem', but 'is'. I háve a beautiful garden. It attracts butterflies, but no girls.
The biggest problem is that a lot of low value women now believe they deserve a high value man due to all this attention. I've seen women with 3+ kids, no degree, low income job talking about wanting a 1% man.
Yeah dating apps have made some women very entitled.. Because they get so many matches and men outnumber women by a significant margin in almost all of them. It makes sense to be picky of course, but within your means.
A woman that was about 40 years old, “Indian” but looked Italian. Location “Orlando, Florida” said she earns a lot of money, business owner, and is looking for a Multimillionaire to marry to “split the bills” 😂. Explicitly stated “no offense” to other men but it is what it is. The confidence on that woman was BIZARRE. Conservation went like: Me: The odds of getting a rich man is very low. Her: You never now Me: It’s too late now, you should have gotten that rich dude in your 20’s! Her: 🤬🤬😡😡😡😡 She was angry
Yeah, exactly right man. Low value women looking for something they don't deserve, and 99% of them on dating apps are a real life mess. Social media has destroyed everything.

Given Derek, an average looking guy, said he got 7 to 12 matches per day... that's hardly evidence of the black pill. Had Derek got zero to 5 matches in three months...that's proof of a black pill reality. This video is the complete opposite of black pill.

First: He is definitely above average, definitely Second: He probably had good pictures, okay bio Third: I dont know the country he is from yet, but the country where I am, the average and even above average guys get 1 match a month.
A lot of these problems are actually because of men. Women desire attention. Men these days throw it out non-stop (Social media, simping, OF, etc). Stop giving attention to people who don't deserve it and learn to walk away the second you're disrespected.
This will never happen as sex is wanted by every man and they're always ready to do anything possible just to get sex! This is why men rape and pay for onlyfans as they want sex but they're unable to get attention and this market is never going to die. You can just remove these guys from being called men but they're still men in the eyes of the world
Kinda betmale white knight comment though. Although you're partially right even the guy who said "I dont' blame them" is a being a white knight cuck because in the end women need to take accountability for their actions too and with this mindset, how will they ever do that if men are saying it's okay or ultimately that it's our fault? lol If I had 100 options, I'd def go with the one who with the best personality but that's just me.
If men were being chased like the majority of women are, there wouldn't be a problem. The men are not asking for ridiculous expectations like 6 ft, six figures and a six pack. Men are more family driven, that's why when we make more money we say now I can start a family. "Women:" Now I have to find someone that makes more money than me. Men don't care if the woman comes from nothing. It's clear 70 to 80 percent of divorces are initiated by women. This is why only 6 out of 1000 men are getting married these days.
yea, I checked out of dating. maybe if I meet someone in person, but nah, I aint doing any online shiiiiit. dating to marry in this culture sucks man. i really like your last point about stopping the chase and taking time to think about the kinda woman you wanna marry, and becoming the kind of man that SHE would want
I met a girl like this, she was talking to multiple other guys and kept making it seem like she was interested. In my experience, most women my age act high schooly. That said I still hear rumors that she never did get over it as we had a one-night stand.

The best is when you're messaging a girl on a dating app and she asks for your instagram, sees that you don't have a lot of followers and then ghosts you.
@@Dereksilver0 Happens to me a lot. I think it's because they either think we're losers with no friends, or they think that we are cheating on our gfs and that's why we won't give out the IG.
@@Dereksilver0 there was a time 10 years when having IG was a red flag cuz the guy would be following other girls. If he didn’t have IG, that meant he wasn’t looking at girls on there 😅
I think that something that is overlooked a lot by us men is realizing when it's time to put yourself in situations where you'll be able to meet girls that have similar interests as yourself. I'm a 26yo with 2 jobs with a great income, athletic, with friends, savings, mature, outgoing and easygoing but I've been so focused on bettering myself that I didn't even look for dating opportunities because I thought the "right one" would just fall in my arms. Like everything in life, if you want it, go and get it. So this year I'm getting into dance and cooking classes, boxing gym, going on trips, maybe a running group...and yeah some dating apps here and there but put yourself in situations where you'll have the opportunity to meet someone that has similar interests as you, this makes the approach much more natural.
Just a heads up, all those classes and activities you are planning on joining are going to have signs up and maybe even make you sign something that says you understand this is not the place to try to meet women and get dates.
I got ghosted for 4 years. Never even got a coffee date. I got muscular and had 8 dates scheduled within a week of updating my photos. People like to then say that the apps are a looks contest. That didn't stop the executive HR lead at the billion dollar company I work for touch me in the elevator. She broke all the rules - an executive, the lead HR person for 20+ years. Been at the company since it was 4 people. Women will treat you like a king if you are attractive. Only men who have known the opposite and got there will understand. If you aren't attractive you get treated like garbage, like you don't exist or that your existence is an inconvenience.
Correct. I've always been told I'm attractive by women but I recently got in the best shape of my life. I'm 45. I'm getting more stares, smiles and attention from random women (especially young women) than I did in my 20s and 30s.

Love this video mate. So I also conducted a similar experiment with a 9/10 white male model and a 9/10 white female model. The female model got 100 likes a day for 5 days straight The male model averaged 2-5 likes a day. The crazier part was that the white male model did very similar to me, which was actually a massive confidence boost. That being said, I’ve still struggled to find anything meaningful on the apps x
Woman that are looking for meaningful relationships have just as hard a time as men finding them. I've always heard that more men than women go on the dating sites, and that's part of the reason that women get so much more attention. Plus, like the guy acknowledged, it's part of male nature to pursue. I was a young looking, slim and a bit above average mid 40's women when I last was online. I got lots of mail and clicks and all that, but a heck of a lot was younger men looking for a cougar hookup. So many guys would send likes instead of message, or attempt to chat. Then there was lots of creepy guys just looking to get laid and wanting video hookups and sexting kind of correspondence. Lots of players, lots of too bold and no sense w/ women. It wasn't about money or the best looking or best resources. I wanted an average guy who had a healthy idea about women, dating and relationships. That was still pretty hard to find. I made a few friends that would ask my advice and help, and was ready to just delete my account in defeat, when a sweet, awkward and shy man, that still had confidence and knew that he wanted to settle down came along and was persistent and consistent enough to get me to date him.
@@saintejeannedarc9460 Women who look for meaningful relationships on OLD also fish for the best value man. I very recently went out with someone who wanted to take it slow and build a relationship, which I was 100% on board with as I'm not the type to take pleasure in chasing. The date went extremely well, our lifestyles were very similar, our passions were 1:1. We even set up a second date afterwards. Not even a week later (3-4 days after the date), she sends a message telling me she found someone better. Capitalism and internet technology has corrupted the concept of love and courtship, both of which require time. Everything is taken as face value. Nobody has the patience to know a person properly. They look at the appearances (looks, hobbies, lifestyle) and make their judgement after the first 3-5 hours of knowing the person.
they will choose a 9/10 chad out of their 200 daily matches, get railed and dumped then complain on reddit how all the men just want sex and abuse them. LMAO
Out of all videos based on this topic, this is the best. You've covered nearly everything and made it so well said. I think another video idea would be visually showcasing the results girls get on these apps, like what sort of dudes are matching them, etc, like the things you mentioned in this video that you saw in the experiment. Also maybe another video discussing some solutions we can do to better navigate this modern online dating world, if any.
Dating apps don't work anymore you have to pay for everything, and I personally can't meet any in person because I'm not outgoing and confident enough.
@@Someguy0525 Confidence comes from getting rejected over and over funny enough. Fear of rejection is much greater than the rejection itself. And alcohol always works.
Not completely screwed, just significantly more challenging especially on dating apps. Within your local communities probably a bit better depending where you live but still more challenging lol, dont give up
What shocks me everytime, is that there still are more men than women on dating apps. Speaking about guys checking out. Not really. Simping should be considered a crime
5’9” and girls ask me out in real life. It got me thinking I was good-looking. In reality, I’m like a 6/10. Zero matches. I got 2 likes from one trashy looking girl and one super ugly girl.
Tbh he's very average. I'm actually very surprised he had matches. I'm Asian and average like him, no matches, maybe 1 from a bot. Yet this guy got a boat load of matches. He must live in some very liberal place like Canada.
Great discussion big dawg. As an average man in the USA, I will give 0 attention/validation to these modern women. Whether its online or in person they just don't deserve my money, time, or personal feelings. I found a passion in traveling the world, pretty soon I will be in country # 20( not a passport bro!). In addition I focus on growing my business, reading, hitting the gym, being healthy, becoming the best version of myself. Whether or not women show interest, I am happy being single and accomplishing my personal goals!
You telling the truth man these women in America aitn shit it's time to move on get a woman that not only looks good but has the drive to build with you, good personality and loves you for you unlike these American women.
there's also a phenomena where the more options you're given the more you regret the decision you made -- with the grape jam example, with only 2 options you would feel confident in your choice -- with 200 options, once you finally make your decision, after a while you will begin to regret it and think the grass is greener with one of the other options you didn't pick
Women can get 12 messages per day from different guys and one can be more richer, prettier, older or younger than the other one. There is literally no reason for them to ever stop this train until looks will fade
Idk, my viewpoint is a little different. I mostly ONLY date women who message me first or show very high interest, but most women I’ve met in dating apps have problems, low self esteem, BPD, baby daddies that make so they have to sneak talk to me, that’s why I don’t reccomend it. Luckily I happened to find a regular women on there, her only baggage is she’s been cheated on but it’s starting to come together now, hopefully
Totally agree with all your points. The only way to solve this dating market in balance is wait for realistic AI female robots to come out, so they all the men who cannot s3x/intimacy will be able to, and women will not be given all this free attention/validation/money and will actually lower their standards and have to put in effort to compete for men.
The reason why that is such a stupid idea is because its a band aid cure for a problem thats *a gaping wound!* which is the lack of genuine, real, human companionship. No AI sex bot will ever be able to recreate that. Wishing for robots is just a losers way to cope. Its basement dweller mentality. The real solution to the dating problem is societal. Bring back two parent homes, that wont leave children traumatized leading them to be promiscuous as adults. Champion modesty morals & values again as a society and shame & destroy any kind of sexual degenerate media/ideologies. This is a good start. Remember, women werent naturally like this. They were brainwashed into being like this through media indoctrination. Brainwashing that became twice as strong because they already came from traumatized childhoods in single mother households where those single mothers were also traumatized and brainwashed themselves (Which is often the reason they pushed the father out of the home in the first place) Address those two things and we’re well on our way to being back on track. Sadly though, thats not the agendas plans. So its only going to get worse. But sex bots wont solve shit, as We cant undo our biology and every human being wants true genuine love & companionship.
Don't relate to this at all. To me it's not worth it. If you're not happy, just don't date. I gave up on finding anyone with similar core values more than a decade ago. Tried going on dates exactly 3 times before that, then quit. If you keep failing, but repeat the same motions regardless, well, you know how it goes, insanity and all that.
@@gregkareem9824 It's that important? The comment wouldn't have made much sense if I was in my teens or twenties after all. I'm 36 now. Stopped dating around 23 or 24 I think.
People too afraid to get rejected in person nowadays, sadly 🙃 I blame social media for changing that mindset of online presence vs going outside and talking to someone. 🙃
The height thing is a weird modern issue. I’m not even short but it’s so off putting. You will be talking with a girl for days and right before the date 50% of them will ask me how tall I am. I know if I was short they would just cancel the date, and these are girls who have invested time talking to me not girls I just opened.
I am on a huge grind. End goal is to bench 265lbs at 165lbs bodyweight. As Derek says... the less you care the better it is. Focus on your goals and magic will happen.
What I've learned throughout my life is that the current dating culture can be compared to the chicken or the egg analogy. Most men learn simping from how they grew up, usually by a single mother. And we base our dating choices (subconsciously) from our mother. Because she was your blueprint on how you love because she loves you. So you look for your mother in your partner. Most guys nowadays had no father, no one to model masculinity and therefore adopt a feminine approach when it comes to mate selection. Your mother and most influences in your younger years are FEMALE, so they tell you how to woo a girl based on how THEY would've wanted the men they were attracted to (bad boys), to woo them (tell her she's beautiful, buy roses, etc). Problem is, the bad boys pumped and dumped and they ended up a single mother, now she raises you to be what he was never for her.... chicken or the egg. Then the cycle continues to where now society is so flipped, generations of boys grew up with no father... Add in the advent of technology and now you have the perfect storm.
females with no father want someone cold, abusive and pretending like he doesn't want her, once he changes his behavior her dopamine rush ends and she hops on another one
The whole idea behind PUA is that you start focusing on yourself, the problem is most dating advice comes down to not talking to the other sex just focusing on yourself. Also, dating apps want you to be single, so you can keep using them.
You're absolutely right, although i live in Russia i am currently facing exactly the same situation as you and i came to the same conclusions as you: 1) stop chasing 2) self improvement (nowadays I'm working on my physic in the gym + growing beard with your American minoxidil + mewing etc.) I think the main point is to never give up so that one day you can see the results of hard work.
Never improve yourself to get or impress women. Do It for yourself. If your going out of your way for a woman you won't find the right one. And dating apps just go on looks nothing else anyway.
Dating apps are not the wave. Originally for hookups taken over by desperate women seeking relationships and then demonized it. Live in the physical world, work on yourself, enjoy your peace. Because even if you do get a match and go on a date they might not be it. Expanding your circle is a great way to find someone.
@@mssn3166 "But it matters for us ladies cos we want our kids to be tall. 6 ft ++ is perfect." Then a lot of you are going to be in harems with an average of six other women because only 1 in 7 guys are 6' or taller.

Thank you so much for making this video. I had the same experience on those apps, and really felt terrible not only about myself but also about women in general. Only after quitting those apps I realized, neither I am so bad nor are women in general. Its just the nature of the beast that those apps create in the heads of both and women. The longer that beast has lived in someone's head, the more hard it would do to that person. Another thing I can relate with you was the short attention span of women on those apps. A person like me who takes one or two days to respond to text messages anyway can never survive in such an environment. Those apps are good only for those top 10% men, but for the rest of us mere mortals its terrible !
Good video! Made me finally realise that these apps are a waste of my time. I got convinced I should join and I was very active for a while, and I did get a handful of matches but all went nowhere. So from now on I'll just put all the eggs into approaches and going to fun events to meet potential women, I'm done with these apps, and not just dating apps, I mean it's all just pixles on a screen, not real life.
You hit it out of the park with your description and prescription of/for dating apps and women. Every average dude needs to watch this and need the advice you give
As a 28 year old average-slightly above average guy I agree with you. What women will have pain realizing in the next 10-15 years is that looks fade and a hookup and a man wanting to invest in you long term are twl different things...
Idk what to think of the modern dating scene. There’s too much conflicting info coming from all sorts of different angles and our individual experiences either validate or discredit whatever discourse
That's good to be dubious about what you're being told online. Watch out for the supposed red pill sites, because they are really black pill. You're going to hear the worst of the worst about women, and these are jaded and bitter men. Of course we're all sick of feminism, but try to balance your views by looking at the other side and listening to women and what they are looking for and their issues too. It's always best to get a balance. The truth is somewhere in between. I found the worst first date story clips had interesting stories. Most the really bad stories were from women and it reminds you of what women truly are dealing w/, which is definitely not what the red pill guys are mostly saying.
Basically all you said I figured out a fewe months back. Especially the competition I think is the root of the problem. Right now you easily compete against thousands of people in you live in a city.
Dude I was a serial dater in apps. I had dozens of matches in a short time span. With that being said. 0 matches is a blessing it saved you from head ache and heartache and and possibly an std or an unwanted pregnancy.
Wow, I agree with your video so much! I also think if you have to entertain women on apps and pull levers in a particular way just to keep their attention, you were never compatible to begin with, especially if they always have other options available. I don’t even think it’s worth trying to “game” the system to get more matches - you’re probably going to be wasting your time anyway. Too many options = inflated sense of their own self-importance. I believe it comes down to these exploitative dating app companies - they’re the problem.
Silverwolf to be honest I've given up with dating I can't pretend to be a guy I am not to entertain a girl with an ego issue who doesn't even know what her true value is I do want a girlfriend but at this point I accepted I can't comepete with a tall dark and handsome guy who can just hit her up anytkme of the day I have no idea how people are insecure 24/7 when it comes to their relationships even can cheat thanks to online dating
I'd say I'm definitely average. 5 foot 7, no abs, 165lbs, round face, exercise regularly in spring/summer but go into a laze/hibernation for fall/winter. Ended up joining the army, and I'd say that was very likely the only reason I got an uptick in matches from maybe one or two to at most 5 to a dozen on any given dating app, and still being only average looking. You hit the nail on the head with this vid - from the double standards to the lying about how much looks genuinely matter and subsequent overinflated emphasis people put on looks, whether men or women. *Everyone* seems to want the 9 or 10/10 matches in looks, and no one seems happy/content with the simply average demographic, which is a huge part of the problem. Doesn't help that *every* dating nowadays is pretty much tailored to keeping people lonely with their algorithms purposely keeping all the eye-candy profiles at the forefront while Joe/Jane Schmo is left to wither. Nor does it help that people purposely self sabotage themselves by staying unhealthy whether physically or mentally, surround themselves with yes-men/women and then wonder why others don't like them. Dating would be far, far simpler if PC culture didn't go overboard by invading personal lives to the point where we all now live in HR world. Can't ask a woman out in public anywhere anymore because it's now an "over-stepping of boundaries" which leaves it all up to the women, who by sheer numbers/statistics aren't going to ask men out. Whether its asking out a co-worker, approaching someone at bars/clubs or even walking dogs. Then again the kind of people trying to find love at bars/clubs highly likely aren't the kind of people to find solace in long-term relationships with in the first place, but that's neither here nor there. Dating apps became the norm, and it shouldn't be that way. Thanks, PC culture and SJW's. Real bang-up job. And thx Silver for this vid.
Thanks for speaking up for men and viewing society through an honest lens! First video I'm seeing of yours, but your content is very much needed 🙏🏽 Men and women need to open their eyes to the truth of dating
I'm so sick of hearing from the passport bros. They think all the women in their country are trash, but that's because they have impossibly high standards. They complain about women just being after money. What do they think they are getting when they go to a third world country, where a woman is willing to date outside her race and culture (which is frowned upon over there)? It used to be pathetic to get a mail order bride, which is pretty much what they are doing.
I am a 6' 2" white male that was making over 100k and I had to take a project in Mexico to find a wife. They cheated on me constantly. They were boring, dull, with a really low IQ. Meanwhile, they all thought they were straight 10s. This was nearly 2 decades ago... I feel bad for guys now. Holy crap.
As a girl on dating apps I am tired of the amount of time being asked if I want to hookup. My likes might be alot but most of them do not want to date me or get to know me as a person.They're making feel like I am a protistute and unworthy of love. But yeah I agree when a guy show off a bit too strong especially when we only chatted for a few hours, I would be turn off as well.I have a guy who said he wanted to marry me although we never met...
I think that's because of redpill content. According to redpill content creators, going on dates is for "betas" and that women only want free meals and free attention on dates. They also teach that women don't need to go on dates for the men they're truly attracted to. She'll come over to your place if she wants you, no need for dating. Some of this is kind of true, as I've experience this myself. But I know not all women behave like this.

@@VR-oy3fu how a currycel like you gets matches in the first place, except for with your own race, is beyond my understanding. I'm saying this as a brown rice-cel
Online dating brutal. I know my worth, I know my preference, Im not gonna going on dates with girls im not interested in and Im not going to pursue girls who dont appreciate my attention. I didnt consider myself average buuut after a month on the app..thats what I am. I havent used dating apps for 8 years and I felt a significant drop in mood after I got on, I never imagined it would be this bad.
The biggest problem is that for guys, no matter how much we improve ourselves, no matter how good of shape we get into, how attractive we become, or how outgoing, charismatic or confident we are, we still get constant rejection and disinterest from girls. We can be an 8 but because we get so little interest from women, we think we're a 4. But for girls, if they put in just the slightest amount of effort, they'll get so much attention that they consider it a problem. They can be a 3 at best and because they get so much attention they think they're a 10. Men and women are living completely different lives and get wildly different results when putting in the same amount of energy and effort. There's a reason that when I started working out around 2008, the ratio of men to women in the gym was around 30:70, whereas now it's flipped and is more like 80:20. It's because women get so much attention that they don't feel the need to look good, whereas guys can't get any attention and think that getting into shape will get them attention.

It really depends on the country , I went to Dominican Republic and used badoo and I met a decent amount of women, in New York I only met 2 girls online and it was okay , but it’s better overseas
This is roughly my experience too, had only four dates after eight months on the apps. I'm a decent looking guy but only 5'5". Of those four only two did I even consider a second date with and only one did I actually have one with unfortunately her travel schedule with work ended up conflicting for a longer term relationship. So I've met one MAYBE two women I'd even considered relationships with in eight months. I've had another four matches reach date planning stage, one met another guy, one I had to cancel after she dropped a deal breaking bombshell, another ghosted and the last just faded after multiple date plans failed. Chats sometimes go good for a couple of days, I even get numbers some times or at least off the app into Messenger or Snapchat and it dies soon after.
I use dating apps for hookups. But you share those girls, very promiscous girls with high body counts. Alot of baggage, alot of issues as well. If you are looking for a serious relationship on those apps you gonna have a hard time. Most girls there also just date very frequently, they cant concentrate on just one guy. You are basically the date of the day, and get nexted for tiny reasons. The mechanics of these apps fuks with people´s heads, cant recommend.
You made an appeal to biology that gender roles are set in stone (i.e. men must initiate, women are incapable of initiation) but then you went on to say men are giving women too much free validation, as if men can really control this impulse. I would argue that simping is mostly wired into men as well, and I think society needs to build guard rails around human nature. These dating apps as they are currently structured shouldn't even be legal in the first place.
Not about gender but who you are as an individual. Even if it's 100% biology "programmed" this, we are also creatures of learning and adaptation, etc. You can control impulses. Even dogs can learn self-control and human minds are much more competent. And yes, biology made it that way. Love it when people blame biology for disadvantages but ignore the advantages biology also gives humans that we often don't take advantage of. I agree that the legality should be looked at, but that doesn't absolve us of making our own choices.
@@VRNocturne You give humans too much credit. As an example, ask yourself why women cannot bring themselves to date men much shorter than themselves, or why men and women are instinctually driven to be biased against men, both automatically and unconsciously.

thats actually true; with the rise of social media and technology, people would much rather dm or message from the comfort behind a screen than actually go up to a girl
well Isn't there like a 80/20 ratio between men who use dating apps vs women? Of course it's gonna be harder since majority of the users are men while the small minority is women. And that very minoirty accounts for trolls & impersonators. I personally would never use a dating app to date/marry someone. They only seem good for a quick pump n dump tbh.
Reminds me of a quote I saw once:
"If you spend your time chasing butterflies, they'll fly away.
But if you spend your time building a beautiful garden, the butterflies will come.
And if they don't, you still have your beautiful garden."
thats actually a really beautiful quote, definitely gonna remeber that one
Sitting alone in that beautiful garden doesn't seem nice to me. Actually, not 'seem', but 'is'. I háve a beautiful garden. It attracts butterflies, but no girls.

The biggest problem is that a lot of low value women now believe they deserve a high value man due to all this attention. I've seen women with 3+ kids, no degree, low income job talking about wanting a 1% man.
Yeah dating apps have made some women very entitled.. Because they get so many matches and men outnumber women by a significant margin in almost all of them. It makes sense to be picky of course, but within your means.
A woman that was about 40 years old, “Indian” but looked Italian. Location “Orlando, Florida” said she earns a lot of money, business owner, and is looking for a Multimillionaire to marry to “split the bills” 😂. Explicitly stated “no offense” to other men but it is what it is. The confidence on that woman was BIZARRE.
Conservation went like:
Me: The odds of getting a rich man is very low.
Her: You never now

A lot of these problems are actually because of men.
Women desire attention. Men these days throw it out non-stop (Social media, simping, OF, etc). Stop giving attention to people who don't deserve it and learn to walk away the second you're disrespected.

This will never happen as sex is wanted by every man and they're always ready to do anything possible just to get sex! This is why men rape and pay for onlyfans as they want sex but they're unable to get attention and this market is never going to die. You can just remove these guys from being called men but they're still men in the eyes of the world
Kinda betmale white knight comment though. Although you're partially right even the guy who said "I dont' blame them" is a being a white knight cuck because in the end women need to take accountability for their actions too and with this mindset, how will they ever do that if men are saying it's okay or ultimately that it's our fault? lol If I had 100 options, I'd def go with the one who with the best personality but that's just me.
100%
If men were being chased like the majority of women are, there wouldn't be a problem. The men are not asking for ridiculous expectations like 6 ft, six figures and a six pack. Men are more family driven, that's why when we make more money we say now I can start a family. "Women:" Now I have to find someone that makes more money than me. Men don't care if the woman comes from nothing. It's clear 70 to 80 percent of divorces are initiated by women. This is why only 6 out of 1000 men are getting married these days.
yea, I checked out of dating. maybe if I meet someone in person, but nah, I aint doing any online shiiiiit. dating to marry in this culture sucks man. i really like your last point about stopping the chase and taking time to think about the kinda woman you wanna marry, and becoming the kind of man that SHE would want

I think that something that is overlooked a lot by us men is realizing when it's time to put yourself in situations where you'll be able to meet girls that have similar interests as yourself.
I'm a 26yo with 2 jobs with a great income, athletic, with friends, savings, mature, outgoing and easygoing but I've been so focused on bettering myself that I didn't even look for dating opportunities because I thought the "right one" would just fall in my arms. Like everything in life, if you want it, go and get it. So this year I'm getting into dance and cooking classes, boxing gym, going on trips, maybe a running group...and yeah some dating apps here and there but put yourself in situations where you'll have the opportunity to meet someone that has similar interests as you, this makes the approach much more natural.
Great point 💯 and an underrated approach that isnt really heard as much
Just a heads up, all those classes and activities you are planning on joining are going to have signs up and maybe even make you sign something that says you understand this is not the place to try to meet women and get dates.
I got ghosted for 4 years. Never even got a coffee date. I got muscular and had 8 dates scheduled within a week of updating my photos.
People like to then say that the apps are a looks contest.
That didn't stop the executive HR lead at the billion dollar company I work for touch me in the elevator. She broke all the rules - an executive, the lead HR person for 20+ years. Been at the company since it was 4 people.
Women will treat you like a king if you are attractive. Only men who have known the opposite and got there will understand. If you aren't attractive you get treated like garbage, like you don't exist or that your existence is an inconvenience.
Correct. I've always been told I'm attractive by women but I recently got in the best shape of my life. I'm 45. I'm getting more stares, smiles and attention from random women (especially young women) than I did in my 20s and 30s.

So I also conducted a similar experiment with a 9/10 white male model and a 9/10 white female model.
The female model got 100 likes a day for 5 days straight
The male model averaged 2-5 likes a day.
The crazier part was that the white male model did very similar to me, which was actually a massive confidence boost.
That being said, I’ve still struggled to find anything meaningful on the apps x
Women can usually tell when a profile is fake vs men
Woman that are looking for meaningful relationships have just as hard a time as men finding them. I've always heard that more men than women go on the dating sites, and that's part of the reason that women get so much more attention. Plus, like the guy acknowledged, it's part of male nature to pursue. I was a young looking, slim and a bit above average mid 40's women when I last was online. I got lots of mail and clicks and all that, but a heck of a lot was younger men looking for a cougar hookup. So many guys would send likes instead of message, or attempt to chat. Then there was lots of creepy guys just looking to get laid and wanting video hookups and sexting kind of correspondence. Lots of players, lots of too bold and no sense w/ women. It wasn't about money or the best looking or best resources. I wanted an average guy who had a healthy idea about women, dating and relationships. That was still pretty hard to find. I made a few friends that would ask my advice and help, and was ready to just delete my account in defeat, when a sweet, awkward and shy man, that still had confidence and knew that he wanted to settle down came along and was persistent and consistent enough to get me to date him.

I very recently went out with someone who wanted to take it slow and build a relationship, which I was 100% on board with as I'm not the type to take pleasure in chasing. The date went extremely well, our lifestyles were very similar, our passions were 1:1. We even set up a second date afterwards. Not even a week later (3-4 days after the date), she sends a message telling me she found someone better. Capitalism and internet technology has corrupted the concept of love and courtship, both of which require time. Everything is taken as face value. Nobody has the patience to know a person properly. They look at the appearances (looks, hobbies, lifestyle) and make their judgement after the first 3-5 hours of knowing the person.

love hearing success stories, best of luck bro
Totally agree with all your points. The only way to solve this dating market in balance is wait for realistic AI female robots to come out, so they all the men who cannot s3x/intimacy will be able to, and women will not be given all this free attention/validation/money and will actually lower their standards and have to put in effort to compete for men.
The reason why that is such a stupid idea is because its a band aid cure for a problem thats *a gaping wound!* which is the lack of genuine, real, human companionship. No AI sex bot will ever be able to recreate that.
Wishing for robots is just a losers way to cope. Its basement dweller mentality.
The real solution to the dating problem is societal. Bring back two parent homes, that wont leave children traumatized leading them to be promiscuous as adults.
Champion modesty morals & values again as a society and shame & destroy any kind of sexual degenerate media/ideologies. This is a good start. Remember, women werent naturally like this. They were brainwashed into being like this through media indoctrination. Brainwashing that became twice as strong because they already came from traumatized childhoods in single mother households where those single mothers were also traumatized and brainwashed themselves (Which is often the reason they pushed the father out of the home in the first place) Address those two things and we’re well on our way to being back on track. Sadly though, thats not the agendas plans. So its only going to get worse. But sex bots wont solve shit, as We cant undo our biology and every human being wants true genuine love & companionship.
The dating market, just like any market, is always in balance. Equilibrium, economics 101.

What I've learned throughout my life is that the current dating culture can be compared to the chicken or the egg analogy. Most men learn simping from how they grew up, usually by a single mother. And we base our dating choices (subconsciously) from our mother. Because she was your blueprint on how you love because she loves you. So you look for your mother in your partner. Most guys nowadays had no father, no one to model masculinity and therefore adopt a feminine approach when it comes to mate selection. Your mother and most influences in your younger years are FEMALE, so they tell you how to woo a girl based on how THEY would've wanted the men they were attracted to (bad boys), to woo them (tell her she's beautiful, buy roses, etc). Problem is, the bad boys pumped and dumped and they ended up a single mother, now she raises you to be what he was never for her.... chicken or the egg. Then the cycle continues to where now society is so flipped, generations of boys grew up with no father... Add in the advent of technology and now you have the perfect storm.
females with no father want someone cold, abusive and pretending like he doesn't want her, once he changes his behavior her dopamine rush ends and she hops on another one
The whole idea behind PUA is that you start focusing on yourself, the problem is most dating advice comes down to not talking to the other sex just focusing on yourself. Also, dating apps want you to be single, so you can keep using them.
You're absolutely right, although i live in Russia i am currently facing exactly the same situation as you and i came to the same conclusions as you:

Thank you so much for making this video. I had the same experience on those apps, and really felt terrible not only about myself but also about women in general. Only after quitting those apps I realized, neither I am so bad nor are women in general. Its just the nature of the beast that those apps create in the heads of both and women. The longer that beast has lived in someone's head, the more hard it would do to that person. Another thing I can relate with you was the short attention span of women on those apps. A person like me who takes one or two days to respond to text messages anyway can never survive in such an environment. Those apps are good only for those top 10% men, but for the rest of us mere mortals its terrible !

That's good to be dubious about what you're being told online. Watch out for the supposed red pill sites, because they are really black pill. You're going to hear the worst of the worst about women, and these are jaded and bitter men. Of course we're all sick of feminism, but try to balance your views by looking at the other side and listening to women and what they are looking for and their issues too. It's always best to get a balance. The truth is somewhere in between. I found the worst first date story clips had interesting stories. Most the really bad stories were from women and it reminds you of what women truly are dealing w/, which is definitely not what the red pill guys are mostly saying.
Basically all you said I figured out a fewe months back. Especially the competition I think is the root of the problem. Right now you easily compete against thousands of people in you live in a city.
Dude I was a serial dater in apps. I had dozens of matches in a short time span. With that being said. 0 matches is a blessing it saved you from head ache and heartache and and possibly an std or an unwanted pregnancy.
Wow, I agree with your video so much! I also think if you have to entertain women on apps and pull levers in a particular way just to keep their attention, you were never compatible to begin with, especially if they always have other options available.
I don’t even think it’s worth trying to “game” the system to get more matches - you’re probably going to be wasting your time anyway.
Too many options = inflated sense of their own self-importance.
I believe it comes down to these exploitative dating app companies - they’re the problem.

Cope Harder. You are simply trying to deal with the fact you will never be able to propagate your genes.
Sound like u gave up
I'd say I'm definitely average. 5 foot 7, no abs, 165lbs, round face, exercise regularly in spring/summer but go into a laze/hibernation for fall/winter. Ended up joining the army, and I'd say that was very likely the only reason I got an uptick in matches from maybe one or two to at most 5 to a dozen on any given dating app, and still being only average looking. You hit the nail on the head with this vid - from the double standards to the lying about how much looks genuinely matter and subsequent overinflated emphasis people put on looks, whether men or women. *Everyone* seems to want the 9 or 10/10 matches in looks, and no one seems happy/content with the simply average demographic, which is a huge part of the problem. Doesn't help that *every* dating nowadays is pretty much tailored to keeping people lonely with their algorithms purposely keeping all the eye-candy profiles at the forefront while Joe/Jane Schmo is left to wither. Nor does it help that people purposely self sabotage themselves by staying unhealthy whether physically or mentally, surround themselves with yes-men/women and then wonder why others don't like them. Dating would be far, far simpler if PC culture didn't go overboard by invading personal lives to the point where we all now live in HR world. Can't ask a woman out in public anywhere anymore because it's now an "over-stepping of boundaries" which leaves it all up to the women, who by sheer numbers/statistics aren't going to ask men out. Whether its asking out a co-worker, approaching someone at bars/clubs or even walking dogs. Then again the kind of people trying to find love at bars/clubs highly likely aren't the kind of people to find solace in long-term relationships with in the first place, but that's neither here nor there. Dating apps became the norm, and it shouldn't be that way. Thanks, PC culture and SJW's. Real bang-up job. And thx Silver for this vid.
Thanks for speaking up for men and viewing society through an honest lens! First video I'm seeing of yours, but your content is very much needed 🙏🏽 Men and women need to open their eyes to the truth of dating
I think I'm gonna die alone
Better than being with someone who cheats on you
You just walk up to them on the street and say hi.
I genuinely liked this video. Good content bro. Funny mentioning passport bros 😂
I'm so sick of hearing from the passport bros. They think all the women in their country are trash, but that's because they have impossibly high standards. They complain about women just being after money. What do they think they are getting when they go to a third world country, where a woman is willing to date outside her race and culture (which is frowned upon over there)? It used to be pathetic to get a mail order bride, which is pretty much what they are doing.
I remeber talking to this 1 girl and 3 days into talking to her she asked if I could help her pay for her cosmetology equipment lol
🤣
Bro what. Lol.
Great job ladies. Your gold digging is literally unraveling society. Well done.
some, not all; we love women
They don't care. They have their Chads for an evening and money from ordinary men thanks to government redistribution...
I'm leaving dating apps alone. Meeting other single people at events is where its at.
You have a great attitude. I also love how you say, "single people", instead of women, which to the red pill crowd, is generally a slur now.
@saintejeannedarc9460 Well, I'm technically bi😅, hence the "people".🤭
Completely agree with you bro
Nothing new here, but still a good video. I liked how you structured it.
I am a 6' 2" white male that was making over 100k and I had to take a project in Mexico to find a wife. They cheated on me constantly. They were boring, dull, with a really low IQ. Meanwhile, they all thought they were straight 10s. This was nearly 2 decades ago... I feel bad for guys now. Holy crap.
As a girl on dating apps I am tired of the amount of time being asked if I want to hookup. My likes might be alot but most of them do not want to date me or get to know me as a person.They're making feel like I am a protistute and unworthy of love.
But yeah I agree when a guy show off a bit too strong especially when we only chatted for a few hours, I would be turn off as well.I have a guy who said he wanted to marry me although we never met...
I think that's because of redpill content. According to redpill content creators, going on dates is for "betas" and that women only want free meals and free attention on dates. They also teach that women don't need to go on dates for the men they're truly attracted to. She'll come over to your place if she wants you, no need for dating.
Some of this is kind of true, as I've experience this myself. But I know not all women behave like this.
@@KandaEzana Women do want free meals n free attention tho.
Honestly every time I’ve ask a girl hay can I get to know you they ghost after two texts mind you I’m 6ft2 180lb I’m shape so idk 🤷♂️
@jeremybeaverson7167 I'm sorry but if this happening "everytime", you doing something wrong.
@@ramalellison9205 it’s called not being a 10 and my best conversation I’ve had have been by being mean then nice then mean somehow that gets numbers and snaps and IG
This video is so comforting! Thanks, man.
You must have learned that you should never waste time on dating apps as an average guy, especially asian.
Great vid bro,,just suscribed
Free dinner? Only simps lead w their wallet!
It’s even worse as an Indian. We are at the bottom of the dating pool.
😂 dont worry brother. We're all getting a raw deal.
Bro we're all in the same sinking boat lol
Im indian too. I got about 50 matches in the first month on tinder when I moved to a new city just outside of Houston, TX in the beginning of December. If you would have told me I would get this, I would have said thats awesome! A few girls even opened. What came out of it? All ghosted after a while or when I suggested a date. 0 dates as of March 2024. Im 6'1'' and used a shirtless pic for the first pic (im in good shape with a six pack). Now the matches are slowing down and its pretty much over. Ive given up. Unless a girl messages/opens first in person or online with high enthusiasm, Im done pursuing. Im focusing on intimidation maxxing now for life in general and trying to get as jacked as possible to at least be physically dominating in public to show all the people that think indians are weak and feeble that if they fuck with me, they'll get beat up. It is what it is and life goes on...
@@VR-oy3fu how a currycel like you gets matches in the first place, except for with your own race, is beyond my understanding. I'm saying this as a brown rice-cel
Asians n blacks are at the bottom of dating pool
Online dating brutal. I know my worth, I know my preference, Im not gonna going on dates with girls im not interested in and Im not going to pursue girls who dont appreciate my attention. I didnt consider myself average buuut after a month on the app..thats what I am. I havent used dating apps for 8 years and I felt a significant drop in mood after I got on, I never imagined it would be this bad.
men are not the one who choose, either you are down bad or being 60yo virgin
The biggest problem is that for guys, no matter how much we improve ourselves, no matter how good of shape we get into, how attractive we become, or how outgoing, charismatic or confident we are, we still get constant rejection and disinterest from girls. We can be an 8 but because we get so little interest from women, we think we're a 4.
But for girls, if they put in just the slightest amount of effort, they'll get so much attention that they consider it a problem. They can be a 3 at best and because they get so much attention they think they're a 10.
Men and women are living completely different lives and get wildly different results when putting in the same amount of energy and effort. There's a reason that when I started working out around 2008, the ratio of men to women in the gym was around 30:70, whereas now it's flipped and is more like 80:20. It's because women get so much attention that they don't feel the need to look good, whereas guys can't get any attention and think that getting into shape will get them attention.
After years in dating apps with absolutely nothing. I'm finally accepting that I'm meant to be alone
nah dont say that lol you wont be alone
think of this period of your life as a character development arc in ur favourite anime
Simple .. be handsome and dont be ugly .. how hard is that
Very hard if you already ugly or got bad genetics then you have to accept being ugly unless you got hundreds of thousands for facial surgery
@@kendralhunt4296 becoming handsome is impossible if you weren't born with good enough (note: good enough =/= good looking) starting facial features. plastic surgery ain't magic, yo.
It really depends on the country , I went to Dominican Republic and used badoo and I met a decent amount of women, in New York I only met 2 girls online and it was okay , but it’s better overseas
This is roughly my experience too, had only four dates after eight months on the apps. I'm a decent looking guy but only 5'5". Of those four only two did I even consider a second date with and only one did I actually have one with unfortunately her travel schedule with work ended up conflicting for a longer term relationship. So I've met one MAYBE two women I'd even considered relationships with in eight months. I've had another four matches reach date planning stage, one met another guy, one I had to cancel after she dropped a deal breaking bombshell, another ghosted and the last just faded after multiple date plans failed.
Chats sometimes go good for a couple of days, I even get numbers some times or at least off the app into Messenger or Snapchat and it dies soon after.
I use dating apps for hookups. But you share those girls, very promiscous girls with high body counts. Alot of baggage, alot of issues as well. If you are looking for a serious relationship on those apps you gonna have a hard time. Most girls there also just date very frequently, they cant concentrate on just one guy. You are basically the date of the day, and get nexted for tiny reasons.
The mechanics of these apps fuks with people´s heads, cant recommend.
You made an appeal to biology that gender roles are set in stone (i.e. men must initiate, women are incapable of initiation) but then you went on to say men are giving women too much free validation, as if men can really control this impulse. I would argue that simping is mostly wired into men as well, and I think society needs to build guard rails around human nature. These dating apps as they are currently structured shouldn't even be legal in the first place.
Not about gender but who you are as an individual. Even if it's 100% biology "programmed" this, we are also creatures of learning and adaptation, etc.
You can control impulses. Even dogs can learn self-control and human minds are much more competent. And yes, biology made it that way. Love it when people blame biology for disadvantages but ignore the advantages biology also gives humans that we often don't take advantage of.
I agree that the legality should be looked at, but that doesn't absolve us of making our own choices.
@@VRNocturne You give humans too much credit. As an example, ask yourself why women cannot bring themselves to date men much shorter than themselves, or why men and women are instinctually driven to be biased against men, both automatically and unconsciously. Clearly we aren't in control of many of our instincts.
How many matches would get a week? How many dates would you go on? Any hookups? Thanks brah
back when i was active anywhere between 30-45, 3-4 dates a week, and a few hook ups
@@Dereksilver0 damn you’re a chad bro
these are not bad numbers. @@Dereksilver0
@@MC-kj7dylmao I hooked up with 8 different woman using dating apps in a period of 10 months and I’m average looking. You need to have good pictures and know how to make a female feel comfortable when you take her out in a date.
If you're average , then I'm finna retire.
He hsn't seen the stats on how undesirable Asain men are on the dating apps. 😂😂😂
yeah he actually is good looking
online dating is fkd up, better to approach in real life that is what i learned. Most guys don't approach girls in public anymore so you got a big advantage over guys on dating apps and social media
thats actually true; with the rise of social media and technology, people would much rather dm or message from the comfort behind a screen than actually go up to a girl
Great video dude, new sub here
Great video bro moral of the story just don’t care you’ll be much better off
Now you could try cold approach for three months and see what happens.
End in prison 😂
Don’t use plenty of fish it’s awful and full of bots and scammers
well Isn't there like a 80/20 ratio between men who use dating apps vs women? Of course it's gonna be harder since majority of the users are men while the small minority is women. And that very minoirty accounts for trolls & impersonators. I personally would never use a dating app to date/marry someone. They only seem good for a quick pump n dump tbh.
