Men and women will always be attracted to each other and will finds ways to date, apps or not. At the core DNA level, female and male tendencies have not changed in 10,000+ years.
Men do the asking (women do the choosing) so the first choice the man's:
1- Spend a lot of time on apps chasing women or IRL, or whatever, to find someone you're somewhat compatible with. In the process, you sacrifice your goals, hobbies, health, cash, freedom, and A LOT of time you'll never get back as we all only have 24 hours in a day. How we use it is 100% up to us. "Disney Men" are all looking for their soul mate and "the one (1.0)." In reality, maybe you'll get and marry a 0.6 at best. Pray you don't get divorced and your kids turn out well, etc., etc because if you're in the 70-80% camp (bad marriage and/or divorce and/or bad kids) your ONE shot at life is f*ucked for good.
2- Focus on YOU; your purpose, goals, $, body, your personal "empire." See women as a COMPLIMENT to your life, not the driving force. Sport f*ucks, STRs, ocassional LTRs without marriage are all good. Establish yourself as a winner, leader, who didn't capitulate on his life goals just to "be" with a 0.6 because he was afraid of being "alone." Cut the losers, flakes, and people who don't contribute to your happiness and well-being out of your life; women, family, former friends if you have to. Take NO bulls*hit. Ever. Don't be anyone's emotional tampon or crutch they keep coming to because you're a "nice guy." Have the BALLS to go it alone and fly solo and live life on YOUR terms.
I'm in the #2 camp. Have been for many years. My only regret is I didn't make this choice sooner. #1 would be a f*ucking death sentence for me.
Be smart.
