Almost the entire point of this subreddit is to argue why dating, hooking up, and pursuing a relationship is unfairly hard for some of us compared to others, and that in order for all of us to find what were looking for, we have to change.
Here's a hot take, even if the RPers could have their way and convince more women to pursue them romantically, resulting in supposedly less single people overall, it wouldnt fix a whole lot.
Because most of you are going into relationships for all the wrong, selfish, shallow, or destructive reasons that will inevitably ruin any happiness a relationship could give you.
I've had my share of relationships and many of them have fallen apart because the person I was with didnt really want a relationship with all, but wanted to reap some of it's benefits and contribute nothing. Ive had people tell me they love me repeatedly and say all the romantic drivel you can imagine, but really only care for the sex, the ego boost, etc etc. I guarantee you, if most of you got a girlfriend, it wouldnt work out because you dont have what it takes to make it work.
Wanting a relationship because you have sexual needs is not enough. Wanting a relationship because you're depressed is not enough. Wanting a relationship because everyone else is in one and they're happy, is. Not. Enough. You have to want to give love to someone else, truly above all else. You want to make someone happy, unselfishly, because they're wonderful and deserve to be happy. Most of you would make bad partners and get dumped because it takes more than that to make it work.
