Online, it might seem like they have none, but their standards often surpass most women’s without a second thought. They don’t argue about it internally, or feel bad about it. And this isn’t just about getting the date, it’s about what happens after he gets laid. They will drop someone who even mildly doesn’t serve them in a second, while most women will make so many concessions.
I hate how low the bar is for men. There are at least 25 marriage minded, successful, financially stable, beautiful women for every one guy with the same status. And they definitely know it and take advantage of it.
We’re expected to pick the guys who want us but whom we aren’t attracted to, while also putting up with every flaw they don’t bother to fix, or even notice was a flaw to begin with. How dare we expect to be with someone we’re actually attracted to? That’s apparently only for men.
I’m so over the dating landscape. I honestly think women get the short end of the stick because we’re constantly bettering ourselves, beauty, education, fitness, relationships, while a man can stay mediocre with a good job and still have his pick.
And every time I see “AIO” or “AITA,” I’m reminded how mediocre men who complain about dating hardships treat their women once they’re in a relationship, and the literal cartwheels women do for a man’s sake, even doubting and second guessing their own reactions to obvious mistreatment. At the end of the day, she’ll still stay, she’ll still sweep things under the rug, and the guy gets to walk around like a total asshole with skid marks in his underwear.
