"The Path of least resistance" - it's true of everything. It's why comfort zones form, and why fear exists. It's the single connecting factor between all elements of AFC.
As an addendum to the above. Modern society caters much more to the lazy. Fast food, fast entertainment - we live in a society whereby short-term gratification is the highest desire. Too many people are used to not having to work for anything in their lives. Including ascension to DJism.
That's why PUAs have such trouble with LTRs. (and one of the reasons people in general prefer to "date" than have LTRs) Once you've found picking up women to be a source of short-term gratification, the idea of WORKING at a relationship can often seem foreign. This is the trap many PUAs fall in, guys like Mystery, TD, etc, etc.
Ultimately it comes down to this: You can read all the online dating information you want, but unless you motivate yourself to get out in the field you're just as useless as an AFC.
