'Because I'm selfish': Men reveal the REAL reasons they've stayed single

Logic. The cons outweigh the pros. Imagine if men sat back and said to women; what do YOU bring to the table? Buy me gifts, trips, expensive dinners, clothes, cars, a house, be charming make ME laugh be entertaining, and if you do all those things maybe, just maybe I'll throw you a dick every once in a while in return.

most of the comments just talk about how its too difficult and takes constant work to date, or how being in a relationship is just too much trouble and work. both are true really. maybe it will reach a tipping point and women will start writing books and marketing it to women telling them how to get a boyfriend, instead of vice versa.

tipping point will likely be when VR porn is invented. fuck yea.

For me, it is the following reasons:

Women's demands and standards keep going up, but what they bring to the table does not. The market is full of women with caviar taste and a beer budget (fat, mean, dumb single mothers holding out for a male model with a 6 figure income). Trying to date in that market is a waste of time. No matter the outcome, if you are a man you lose.

The legal system is heavily misandrist.

The men I know in relationships have a lot of negatives. Women who nag them to become better plowhorses. Women who spend all their money. Women who cause tons of drama and misery. Even the men in the best relationships in my experience generally call it a draw (the benefits and drawbacks neutralize each other). I'd wager less than 15% of men can say that being in a relationship is a net positive in their life (positives outweigh the negatives).

Because I am a strong, independent and empowered man and I need a girlfriend or a wife like a fish needs a bicycle.

Even if I got the woman of my dreams it would be an utter nightmare maintaining my relationship to her. I've been there. I know.

So I pass on that encore.

Incidentally I recall thinking earlier today that I really enjoy looking at women. From their feet to their legs, ass, back, etc, etc. Then maybe my age kicks in and I say that's all I need. Anything more is a pain.

When a date looks like a fucking job interview, we might consider all fun is gone, silly us!

And why doing something dreadful and exhausting out of work?

Better going my own way and entertaining myself. It's cost-effective.

Why to they care why men stay single?

A female interjected and replied to one post and said: 'Tip from a lady: the shyness will hinder you infinitely more than any physical flaws you may have.

There couldn't be a bigger piece of bullshit in all those 17,000+ responses. Plenty of extroverted fat/ugly/short guys women don't give a rat's ass about.

I hate playing the part of the clown, just to keep some bitch interested. Fuck that. I was born into this shitty world alone and butt-naked, I have no problems dying alone and butt-naked.

Look at this for instance:

https://theeternalpursuitofloveandlaughter.wordpress.com/2014/01/10/if-a-man-over-40-has-never-been-married-theres-always-a-reason-discuss/

All these ladies are disappointed with older bachelors because they didn't act like a husband/LT boyfriend is supposed to act, presumably because they didn't marry when younger and therefore didn't learn their place. They are "selfish". Reading between the lines, it seems to mean they want to spend some of their spare time by themselves, instead of spending every spare moment with her, listening to her crap, giving non-stop attention to her.

Its like listening to a horse trainer lamenting how you can never truly break in an older horse. They still have too much independence and just never get used to the bit.

Really....? That's what they took from that thread? Rather than the hundreds of valid and interesting answers including only liking girls out of their league, being involuntarily celibate, cheated on, not seeing the point, being self conscious and awkward, or just not trying anymore they go with an answer about 20-30 down that paints single men in a negative light? What else is new.

blue_magoo_62 · 2016-11-02T01:38:31+00:00

what was the point in that article? it seemed to be just a list of what some redditors had said to a question with no overveiw or conclusion.

lewism109 · 2016-11-01T22:30:54+00:00

I believe one redditor mentions MGTOW in the linked reddit section. The link to said reddit section is in the article.

Nice find, I am working my way through the comments.

RapeSeedOiI · 2016-11-02T12:01:12+00:00

My brain hurts after reading this "article". Really low effort with tons of distorted screenshots, paraphrasing whatever other people wrote. Sure enough written by a 3rd world women.

Must not offend wymynz inflated egos... must avoid referencing any REAL reasons... must also avoid acknowledging MGTOW.
