The People Who Quit Dating
Being single can be hard—but the search for love may be harder.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
Do you agree with this dating article from the atlantic ?:)

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I think the "choose your spouse" meme that was at the heart of the great play/movie "Fiddler on the Roof", was a guiding principle of the Sexual Revolution and the Me Generation, and has found its apotheosis with OLD, is destined for a major reset. The Paradox of Choice is a paradox because rather than liberate, it befuddles.

Many men are quitting dating because they are not seeing results from it.
There's no reason to go on multiple first dates that don't result in either first date sex or eventual sex from a longer term relationships.
Additionally, it is even worse for men that don't get dates from electronic methods or get their in-person approaches ignored.

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

If it was something I wanted to do (like try a cool, new restaurant). and she paid her fair share? Yes.
So true

A girl I wound up with, whom I met on Tinder, told me she matched with a guy she didn’t find attractive, but thought his bio was cool. They met & she told him, straight up, ‘no kissing. No sfx.’. He still took her out to a ball game & dinner.
Dating is fine as long as you realise it’s a value exchange.
It’s fun in the beginning but at some point women always want more than you are willing to give (money, energy, attention, time, validation etc.) and/or the quality/quantity of bedroom action or whatever else you want from the relationship declines or has increasingly more and more conditions placed on it (choreplay, giftplay, romance play, moving in or marriage demands etc.).
What was relatively low investment for you in the beginning increases over time and the satisfaction you experience declines. Probably the same experience for her as well, just different things.
It’s then a slow death spiral to the inevitable break up, dead bedroom, affair/cheating, increasing feelings of unhappiness/dissatisfaction/boredom; just the length of time this takes to happen can vary. There are exceptions of course but everyone thinks they will be the exception.

It's OVER for NoSfxCels.
Really, this is one of the reasons I don't have a problem with EscortMaxxing. If I drop the same amount for a session as I would taking a chick of her calibre out and not get action, why is that not the sensible thing to do?
what site do you use?
