There are the 3 types of guys I generally see today:
#1 This is the guy who is "traditional" and wants to be seen by everyone else as doing the "right" thing. He finds a girl he has known for a good amount of time from his social circle and settles down. On paper, everything looks great. In reality, this guy is suffering. He never really sexually courted his mate to begin with. Generally these types will be friend zoned for years and either because of their job, status, or some other benefit, the girl decides to settle down with him. These types of guys also fall prey to girls they're not even attracted to, but give them attention. The worst part about these guys is they have no say in their relationships. As their male friend, you have to be very careful with this type because they're quick to turn on you to save face.
#2 I'm seeing much more of this today. These guys see what's happening to guy #1 and don't want any part of that life. Yet they have yet to develop the skills to attract the kind of woman they do actually want. The end result is they stay single. There are varying degrees of happiness in this crowd. Some are ok with it while others still crave a relationship.
#3 This guy also doesn't want to end up like #1, but takes a different approach than #2. He might still be single, but allocates time to talking to different women. However, he doesn't place much value on any one interaction. Knowing all the media brainwashing out there, this guy knows many of the interactions are going to be a waste of time. The main thing is he keeps the time wasters from wasting his time. Generally guys in this category are working on goals that are beyond trying to find someone to settle down with.
