They say more and more young men don't want to get married or even be in a relationship with a woman.

Not posting to bash anyone.
I don't understand the dislike of nice guys, but that was a thing when I was young as well.
I think both sexes want something that's unattainable , sometimes.

@Justmeraeagain
Indeed. Unrealistic expectations have been around forever.

@HootyTheNightOwl I see , wasn't aware.
It's sad that it's coming to a place where people can't afford to live.
We were poor, by many people's standards,but things were less expensive

@Justmeraeagain That's part of the problem... when adjusted for inflation, wages are way behind the income our parents received in the 70's and 80's - so we have reached the point where food poverty is a very real issue.

We mock Rishi Sunak for saying that he was so poor that he couldn't afford Sky TV as a child (even though it wasn't released until he was 8 years old and attending a 4k per term prep school)... yet, we have people going without food to heat their homes and sitting in the dark because they are unable to afford to top their electricity meter.

@HootyTheNightOwl I think the USA has more established help, which, doesn't mean people don't fall through the cracks.
However,some of the comments of these YouTube influencers do show a lack of maturity where relationships are concerned.
They are not poor and have unrealistic, unreasonable expectations.
I certainly don't believe that is the whole issue or even maybe the main one

@NerdyPotato
I guess I'm a dinosaur and like the old ways ... Glad I'm in a long-term relationship. I couldn't stand faster and faster...

@Justmeraeagain I don't like the rising pace either, but thankfully long-term relationships are still possible even now.

@SilentObZerver I never really understood the reasoning behind bad boys?
I think maybe,women are afraid to admit they want a strong, dependable man? Some believe we'd have to give up independence if we select a nice guy.
And mistake it as weakness and see abusers as strong?
Verbal abuse is abuse,cheating is abuse,berating is abuse, constantly putting his needs above yours is abuse...
on the other side, I do find never having own opinon and acting like a slave to anything I may request to be a turn off,but I don't aquite that with being nice.
I would think a guy would find a submissive with no real personality in a woman to also be a turn off.

Not every woman feels or acts the same way.
Lots of men are players,for example,but not all.
I think if we accept bad behavior it keeps people alone after a few relationships believing "All" men and "All" women are the same way..

We been taught to be princess or girl bosses, I think happiness cannot be find in either extreme.

@Justmeraeagain yeah exactly....so if players and "bad boys" are getting to sleep with lots of girls without committing to one...
I.e girls are rewarding bad guys

Why will guys wanna marry?

Most Girls only find "nice guys" attractive, after years of sleeping around and realise their biological clock is ticking and wanna settle down , when all those bad guys didnt consider them worthy enough for marriage

@SilentObZerver That's sad,really.

@JimboSaturn I think so,too

@exexec I see a lot of blame on opposite sex from both camps.

@mooncrest02 I probably watch too much YouTube who knows if it's even real?

@Justmeraeagain well maybe, i see a lot of weird content for ladies too its like people promoting using others now a days .
