Why is it so hard to date nowadays?

Rent used to be around $1900 and $2400 where I live. Now the average is around $3100 - $4000. These landlords don’t want to work in this post covid society so they jack up the rent to basically make tenants pay their morgage and add a little extra shopping money on the side. I’m better off with a house so I’m saving for one.

NUMBER 2: We live in crappy times

Right now, I’m waiting for it to pass. Supposedly there is a 2 year mark. I reached that mark in February. I feel better than I did prior, but I still have issues. Until this fatigue and chest stuff goes away, I’m out of the game.

I’m around women who aren’t my type most the time

This isn’t that big a deal but it got on my nerves in real life a few times. This whole social media stuff changed the way a lot of females 18–35 think. It creates unnecessary dialogue and also it leaves an impression on the youth. Like, I was talking to a woman about something and she lifted her finger and “corrected me” by saying something super woke. I think i was giving and example and she said, “Him or HER” or some gender identity thing like that. I faced that a few times. Like I said, it isn’t big but it’s a factor.

May this thing go away this year by GOD’s grace.

How can the citizens of Russia accept the enormous difference between people? The richest 500 Russians own more than the poorest 99.8% of the entire Russian population combined. Why don't we see any protests?

I gotta be too careful with what I say, but being a realist is my personality

I am aware I can make time. I am aware I can still do what I am currently doing while dating, but the effort on my part is more than I can bear for a moment.

The prideful personas.

I either grew out of or was never really down with the tye of women I grew up around. These women are still around but it’s much more of the basic type around. That kinda lowers my interest.

I clicked with churchy women and muslim women from Asia.

Weave and leggings.

Why is Jack Smith arguing that presidents should not have full immunities as Trump is requesting?

Staying out late.

I’m not into all that. I find myself more attracted to rustic or foreign women. I live in the tristate, so all I have are essentially urban women around. In college, I clicked more with women from Nigeria, Korea, the Phillipines, Alaska, and the countryside a lot.

Anyways, not wanting to spend money stopped me from going out places. So I spend all of my time working and also working on personal projects for more income.

That’s why it’s hard for me to date right now. that’s probably true for some others. Maybe, maybe not.

This messes with dating BIG TIME.

These reasons I’m giving are not excuses, they are also not “one at a time.” These are all factors that come into play all at the same time, which is why I personally find it hard to date.

What are the different celebrity lists (A-list, B-list, C-list, D-list)? How does one become a part of these lists and move up or down in status?

Again, this is not a big problem for me, but it is a little annoying. Even women at work who are into me had this tension against me sometimes when the subject of “men” and neo feminism are brought up.

NUMBER 4: I’m just not that interested in basic American women anymore

Women are getting the wrong impression of men from other women on social media. It’s creating a wall so if a guy who’s less on the confident side ever thinks about shooting his shot, he might not take it. I had a coworker who was cool, a very cool guy, but he was gay. One day, he told me that a coworker didn’t like him and he really asked me about women, like legit, he wanted to understand them. That showed me that bro probably just identified as gay because he just didn’t get these new age women at all. He might’ve been bi if he did, or maybe even straight. Point is all this Tiktok and Disney anti-men BS is having a very real impact on these young women.

My landlord just sold the house I’m renting from her. She included all fixtures, that I bought and installed. Does she have this right?

So in conclusion

Covid destroyed my health

Can it be true that people know your name, not your story, they’ve heard what you’ve done, but not what you’ve been through, so take their opinions of you with a grain of salt?

My life is work and I’m broke

Drinking and parties.

Thrill seeking adventures like sky diving.

NUMBER 1: Health problems since Covid

I think 3 million Americans have this problem too, which is why I partly believe that dating is low right now. A lot of it are health issues. These untested vaccines (which i did not take but others did) and this dang disease.

I can only speak for myself and no one else.

How do you know when someone really loves you?

Covid did something weird to my chest. I get annoying fatigue, random episodes of palpitations, and I also can’t be as physical as I once was back in 2021. I can no longer watch porn because my heart will palpitate, I can no longer have sex because of palpitations, shortness of breath, and fatigue. My long covid keeps improving and retracting. The better it gets, the worse the blowback.

The zodiac signs.

Etc.
