Maybe you should reflect within yourself. What has been the common factor in all your relationships not getting past 3 months.

of course i don’t know you but i was getting a really narcissistic vibe reading this, maybe it’s not the women. maybe it’s you. maybe you attract or are attracted to narcissistic women, and so you both end up battling for the attention. of course there are chill women out there. maybe you should just keep dating women until you find one that isn’t so unbearable to you. men and women both have obstacles with the opposite sex when it comes to finding someone that they actually enjoy being with.

You're the one that isn't setting the boundaries.
You don't like constant text or it's disturbing you, you don't really need to instantly text back.
You also don't need to accept attitude or drama. It's okay to listen to it sometime but, if she is constantly with the same drama situation and not working on fixing it it's a problem.
What do you mean by emotions?

My favorite saying is this: if you meet an asshole in the morning, you've simply met an asshole. If you meet assholes all day, YOU'RE the asshole.

Oof, you’re definitely generalizing that all women are high drama and emotional and throw attitude — as well as your generalization that all women run on emotion and men always have logic. Gonna just ignore that bit.
I get that that is your experience with the women you’ve dated and I’m really sorry it’s been detracting to your life rather than additive. While I know not all women are like the ones you are describing, there definitely are a good bunch like that.
Maybe it’s more so that you’re doing something to attract those type of women and/or are missing the red flags or signs early on?
Are there patterns in the people you’ve dated in the past? With hindsight, were there red flags you didn’t think of before but now realize they are red flags?

Thanks! To answer the last comments. I've had therapists confirm I'm not a narcissist. I go out of my way for people and in the past that led to being stepped on in the relationship. I will admit I'm frustrated and annoyed that nice guys do indeed finish last, so I changed my tune and became a bit edgier in hopes I don't come across lik a pussy anymore. Surprisingly enough it's gotten me extra attention in the last couple years.
But yeah I think you guys are right, I'm ignoring red flags and not giving the nice safe girl a proper chance. I'm always going for looks and that generally leads to difficult women...

nice safe girls can be sexy too, haven’t you heard that it’s the shy girls who are the freakiest in bed? lol, you don’t have to change who you are just to attract women, maybe that’s the first thing you should do? revert back to your natural self and attract a woman you enjoys you for you. my fiancé is a super sweet guy and not dominating in the least, (people say i’m out of his league) i think i’m pretty attractive, what i’m trying to say is looks aren’t everything & to stop with the stereotypes and be real & maybe you’ll find something real too

If you are acting “edgier” because it gets you extra attention, then you are not doing it for the right reasons. You are putting on this act for girls, of course you are gonna attract a certain type of girl. I would say act more like yourself, and find a balance. I don’t think woman are the problem, seems like you have very strong opinions and are resistant to feedback, which makes for bad relationships.
I find it funny how all the women here freak out over being called a little emotional.

OP's dilemma and perspective is I think common. I can relate a little bit. It's more common than the commenters think.
Some guys don't like putting up with the typical female persona. And some guys will settle to avoid solitude and it often blows up eventually.

Like attracts like, so yeah, if you constantly attract drama, attitude and stress... Don't want to be rude but often times when you hear people complain about all their partners being crazy, it turns out that... You get the idea.
But yeah it's possible to find chill girls. Maybe you're looking in the wrong places? Where do you usually find girls? Since that isn't working, you should change venue.

I've never so much as had women show any interest in me besides a few glances now and then while I am out in public. Maybe you and I could exchange places for just a few weeks and I'll give you an updated perspective.

"I understand men run on logic"
"During the ScAmDeMiC"
Good way to make a woman run away is to cause coma inducing cognitive dissonance with stuff like this. Cringe
