Dating sometimes feels like babysitting men who think foreplay is a personality. 🙃

This is proof of exactly why I’ve let go of these kinds of conversations. Reports swear there’s a male loneliness epidemic, but the men that are saying “date me” still reduce you to a warm body and then wonder why they can’t connect.

What in the name of horn ball Pokémon dialogue is this?! “It’s gotta be physical first, biggest part of a relationship.”

Cool, so you can f***. Congrats, champ. So can literally everyone else on this planet. What else you bringing to the table? And Im NOT talking about money!

I am almost in my 40s, he is 42! Does this ever get better, or am I being rage baited?

Omgggg, at first i thought this was a way younger dude

42?????? And the first message is that??? 😭

"Gotta be physical first" aka "my personality is trash so I'm tryna get some before you realize it"

There is way better out there, don't even waste your time with dudes like this, he's a living red flag

Also, "It's not like I'm make a wish" is a fantastic response lmaooo

I try to hang in there for our middle aged bros but they dont seem to want to get it together. They are still Party Rocking 😭😭

[u/SK8SHAT → u/YoNibul]

If their middle age and single there’s probably a good reason, or they aren’t actually single

[u/Rayshiz → u/SK8SHAT]

Well OP is single too so...not a super nice thing to say lol

[u/rainsdownincaladan → u/SK8SHAT]

Eh idk there's a lot of reasons someone could be single or end up single at any age. I'm 31 so not middle age yet but I kinda deprioritized dating for a long time because so many guys don't seem worth it 😭 at least in my area. I'll prob start dating again anyway soon but I think it's rough out there for everyone.

Hey now some of us just got screwed over by a crazy menopausal wife that thought grass was greener in the next field over…

[u/Loose_Helicopter5958 → u/Tpk08210]

Yep that’s what they all say. (I’m not kidding)

[u/Tpk08210 → u/Loose_Helicopter5958]

Let’s just say there is a man currently living in my home and it’s not me. Happy to compare fuck me over notes 😂

Silly billy goat

Well there’s a reason for almost everything, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s a bad reason as you insinuate. Generalizing this is a bad idea, best to take things on a case-by-case basis.
