Yup. Dating still sucks

[John9999]

I went away for about 3 months, really focused on my physical self and business. Those things are going very well. I think I just give up at this point on dating at age 52. I’m going to go back to escorts as it is easier, way less headache and I get what I want

If you can afford it it's definitely the way to go.

 

[John9999]

Yes I can afford it. Money aside women aren’t worth the effort. It’s like this crazy game where you have to say the right things at the right time in the right way and if all the stars align then you’ll be a happy boy.

With escorts I don’t have to jump through any freaking hoops or anything and I don’t have to hear them babble on about their mother or the job they hate or whatever.

I seriously dont get why for some ppl its that bad

Maybe its my small town in Canada, or ppl meet women the wrong way.

Never done OLD always social circle.

Some of my associates who are well heeled and good looking are into high priced escorts, those with good educational backgrounds and with good degrees.

And I do understand why from their perspective, it's suited for those those who are considered intellectuals, passive men.

Most of them are married whilst very few are divorced and don't need nor want the emotional attachments.

Side note: I have on occasions hired some to entertain clients when I'm in a certain country, there's benefits in that sense too.

OP, if you're this eager to give up, you should really get your testosterone checked.

he said he is not willing to put up with crap, no not wanting sex

sometimes having a time when you don't waste time with dating is a good way to get your mind in peace and getting ready to try again, as long you are alive and going out you will find a girl you will like and the thing will start again, if your mind is just I need a girlfriend or I seek a LTR then things will never go well, when you get the mind of I want to have fun with her, now that is the moment you will go right

This is why I think some dudes just waive the white flag and settle instead of continuing on dating new ladies.

I think the older women get the more red flags they have, whereas men tend to lower their red flag detectors the older they get if they’re still single.

OP I don’t know the age bracket your going for but past 30 there are serious fcking issues with females. It’s so toxic It makes me nauseous to think about. When that special little princess pops out a few kids... runs off every decent man she had your staring right into a psychotic abyss of desperation and manipulation. I would try going younger. My one buddy is 55 and still pulls prime ass. It’s funny because every chick over 30 says he’s the biggest scumbag around and most cucks in my area but the guy is loving life!

I always said when I can’t pull under 30 anymore it’s high end escorts.... I get where your coming from.

Never sure y anyone bothers with escorts. Cheaper to rub one out. Dating s more about being social. Being able to encourage and discourage conversational topics and spike their emotions is part of the skillset.

You are right most dates are s*** but you can turn them around. And they shouldn't be over an hour anyway. If she s dtf make the move

So much truth! I can count on one hand how many sane women I know over 30 and I’ll have some fingers left over.

I just started T injections a month ago. My levels were extremely low

 

[John9999]

Thank you everyone. Glad to know it doesn’t suck for just me. And yes I would say Everywoman over 35 is freaking crazy. Lots of problems and issues. And they think they’re so wonderful and take no accountability for nothing. And whoever told women to make men chase after them should die a very slow and painful death!

 

[RickTheToad]

Stop caring so much. That would help a lot.

Oh I don’t care near as much as I used to.

 

[RickTheToad]

Oh I don’t care near as much as I used to.

The one who cares the least is the one who has the power and control. In the past, when I cared more, the lady lost interest. When I couldn't care less if they stayed, prayed or got laid, they cared more. Just go out to a local bar, hang out joint or happy hour, chat up with a few people or the bartenders and you'll be in beast mode in no time. It just takes some practice.

When things are going well women won't seem like effort. When things are going extremely well you'll be beating them off with a stick. You'll be so high on your own life that it won't matter whether a woman is with you or not. It sounds like your social circle and social acuity is crap, otherwise engaging women wouldn't feel like a chore. If going out and being social feels like a chore then ask yourself why. Engaging people and especially women you find attractive should be a relaxing and fun thing to do. Most likely you're not happy with yourself and when you talk to women you're not prepared to dismiss them and go after what you want, which would be women with higher interest. Why not go out a couple times a month and work on simple social engagement? Get some fresh rejection so you start to realize it makes absolutely no difference and brushing it off is a sport of its own. Over time you'll learn to calibrate yourself to your environment effectively to the point that you're pretty fun to be around. It sounds like you take pretty seriously and probably get escorts as an outlet for your frustration.

Once you don't care about rejection you'll have nice big balls that women can respect. If she tries to make you jump through hoops you'll make a joke out of it, ignore it completely, or dismiss her. Not out of spite, but because you're simply not interested in playing to her frame for some puussy. You won't take her tests seriously because you'll understand another woman is right around the corner. That playfulness and self respect is attractive. Your sense of abundance or scarcity are a self fulfilling prophecy. So focus on fostering abundance.

Inability to compete is a tell tale sign. You should feel better soon.

 

[Dynamited]

I'm with OP on this. The amount of time and effort required just isn't worth the ROI.
