Why Modern Dating Feels Impossible for Men Today

Modern dating feels damn near impossible for a lot of guys out there.

There are technological, sociological, and cultural reasons that are holding men back from pursuing women and finding an ideal partner for them.

The brutal truth of online dating

First and foremost, I want to point out that for most men, online dating is brutal. About 3 in 10 US adults have used an online dating app in the past. Over the years, I’ve seen the data show that more and more people are shifting to online dating.

It’s easier to search people up, do it in your free time, not a lot of commitment there, and you don’t have a lot to lose because if someone doesn’t respond, you could move on to the next person.

Something you may commonly hear, though, is that if you’re a girl on an online dating site, you have endless choices galore. There are guys just lining up to go out on a date with you, and you have your pick of the litter.
