i be feeling like people be giving bad dating advice to people because they want them to stay single. Either other single people/ bitter people cause misery wants company. Dating coaches cause if you single they get more business. And family and friends cause they want to feel superior/ want an ear to listen/ babysitter.

I think people be purposely setting people up for failure.

Most relationship advice is from people who are single so by design it's trash.

People get dating advice from people in long term relationships and refuse to believe that's how a relationship is maintained.

Basically you clowns look for advice from someone who can't help you and then do what you wanna do anyway, then complain when it doesn't work..

Most dating advice fails for the same reason a lot of advice isn't helpful. It ignores the role that good luck can play.

You have to set yourself to be successful the best way you can: learn how to tell a story in an engaging way, travel and do interesting things that most people don't get to, build your body to be as attractive and healthy as you can make it, and the rest comes down to being at the right place at the right time and being in the right mood.

Failure is part of the process and anyone promising you a pain-free solution is selling you something. All these redpill and female dating strategy types are just out to make bank. Men and women tend to over think things and get frustrated.

Men are simple. Men want their sacrifices recognized and appreciated, they want to be apologized to with respect when they are wronged, want to be communicated with clearly, not in hints and implications and they want to be able to enjoy peace and quiet when they ain't in the mood to talk about everything.

Women want safety, security, and someone whom they can show off and impress other people with. They seek a man who is decisive, knows what he wants and has clear boundaries around what he will and won't tolerate and clear goals for himself.

When you understand these things it simplifies the game

Y'all don't have family members in successful relationships to learn from? Serious question.

I always thought about this, until you realize there’s a generational gap. So the things they would do, wouldn’t work today.

Trial and error + learning about yourself / finding your market + taking advice here & there is the best option.

Because its not dating advice. Its hook advice/ how to get the other gender's attention. They rarely discuss how to grow and maintain healthy relationships. There's no coincidence that many of these ppl are either divorced, serial daters or have a child or two out of wetlock.

Whats different about relationships today than years ago? Only things that changed are outside influences that shouldn't be involved in a relationship anyway
