It's on the female side too. So to answer your question about is if this is the norm. Yea. Dating is like the job market right now, if you're missing any of the check marks, on to the next
Often feel the same on the other side, if you miss one (often superficial) check you’re out!
And females when they find the right sane person who is looking for love and willing to build a family they ghost him and move on to the next man because he is lying more, or an inch taller or he seems a bad boy .. so it is both sides
This!!!!
Yeah as a guy me too. It feels like a job application
All is not loss ladies stick to your guns no goodies till you feel it’s deserved

Big difference imho between people met irl vs certain apps, and how the interaction plays out.
To make the point, if you’re complaining about this with people you met on Tinder, Feeld, Fetlife, etc., well, you get what you paid for. How are you pitching yourself on Bumble or whatever?
That cute meetup at the store, whatever club, gym, etc., does that play out differently for you?
Hopefully, but if not, maybe it’s partly about you, what you have been incentivized to do or become.
Meanwhile, sex isn’t a bad thing, and ideally it’s part of a thing. It comes across as a very separate box for you. Which isn’t ‘wrong’, but it could partly explain what is happening.
it's easy to blame men and shame them. take a look at the pool of men you qualify for and that will inform you. do a better job weeding those men out before the first date.
I feel like you can’t win…ask too many questions it’s a job application. Ask not enough questions, you don’t learn what you need to know. Men feel tired, women feel tired. Everything is balance. It should be fun, enjoyable, but yes — also requires patience, learning, and letting guards down.
We likely have one thing in common, if not more — we all don’t love the perceived “process” of dating. Likely, we all just want to love and be loved at the core.
There are Men outside there, looking for real 💘 love,
This is so true
This has been my ugly experiences and now ,I am not even freak about relationships, though' I would love to settle down, but with a guy who has deep referevence with GOD ALMIGHTY our Father and Creator,A soul mate who will bring out the best in me and together, we would build a family that bring Glory to our maker.
Feel the same! Like they can’t control themselves. I just don’t get it.

What do you mean when you say ‘women need to be more proactive during the courting process’?
Women too objectifying me for my height, not interested in wanting me o get to know me beyond my height…
You see how that sounds? Welcome to 2025!
Wow that’s crazy bro. How tall are you? Just curious to see why they are acting crazy about it
Let exchange numbers, so we can chat
After years of objectification and being sidelined men have gotten to a point where swiping left and short term or one night stand relationships are normal. Don't get me wrong we are still looking for the right one but "standards" are higher then ever on both sides. 6 foot tall 200k salary is not most men and those that are can afford to be even more picky. Don't present yourself as hunting or needy. Just go out have fun expect the worst but hope for the best. Enjoy life and find people who do the same. The right ones there, possibly under your nose. And just a sidenote, no guy wants to be friend zoned. If your not interested be blunt. We can take rejection better then idk or maybe.
