Hey, what's everyones dating experience?

I went on a few dates but never had any luck. I noticed most girls basically want the guy to be downtown, have a fairly good job and among other things.

After reading self-made man, I kinda get the feeling the author is not wrong. Woman tend to put men on probation, even unfairly.

So that’s a pretty big escalation and isn’t what she was discussing. Did you read her book? She was referring to when a woman gets hurt emotionally or whatever, she will take that experience and apply that to all men. Then basically the man is morally corrupt by default until proven otherwise.

when a woman gets hurt emotionally or whatever

Like... when men lie, cheat, harass, or are abusive? How could you say that's not relevant!? 81% of women will experience sexually harassment and/or assault in their lifetime. So yeah, I think it's natural and reasonable for them to protect themselves, including emotionally, until we've proven ourselves...
