Been seeing more and more of this lately - guy and girl have a great first date, no lay, never hears from her again.
Wonder how much of it has to do with the "mainstreamization" of online dating in recent years?
Any girl with a POF/OKC profile she has a stready stream of suitors knocking at her door. Rest assured there are hundreds of better looking thirsty dudes with more status hitting her up. These guys won't commit but they'll hit it and quit it.
Men are as faithful as their options. Women are as choosy as their options. With online dating, an attractive woman's options are seemingly infinite. In keeping with her hypergamous instincts, she's always on the lookout for the bigger, better deal.
In the past a woman would stick with a guy after a good date because she had no other solid prospects lined up. Now she's more likely to stray.
Online dating is a boon for guys who fit the media-promulgated aesthetic ideal (tall, muscular, white). Like this guy - http://www.rooshvforum.network/thread-3601-p...#pid102162.
Guys who don't measure up physically have tough road to ho. No matter how tight his verbal game, a short Asian guy will always be hard-up when Mr. Tom Brady lookalike is hollering at her from the next browser.
Online dating is courtship distilled to its essence sans the filter of approach anxiety.
A 1000 rejections in the real world would cripple a man.
A 1000 rejections in the virtual world mean nothing.
Thousands of thirsty dudes without approach anxiety + hypergamous women with infinite options is a recipe for dating disaster. Unhappy girls who can't get a top guy to commit, and unhappy guys who can't get a date.
This phenomenon is unprecedented in human history.
And if online dating loses its stigma and becomes mainstream, it could put the average guy's prospects in serious jeopardy.
