My theory is that by late 20's, pretty much all of the sane/rational ladies have settled down/married some one. What's left are the ones who are too indecisive/never satisfied ('I deserve better') ladies, or the raging feminist or totally career determined types. There are very few normal ones left by the time they hit early 30's.

Then you get to the 35-40 bracket and you start to get a lot of single mums coming 'back onto the market'. Some good easy pickings there as they have generally lowered their standards a bit, and they are (probably sub consciously) past seeking an alpha male and satisfied with a more stable beta. Often, they are also utter filth in the bedroom after a long dry spell.

This is an excellent post containing much truth.

Women are like parking spaces. All the good ones are taken and the rest are disabled or with children.

Also, internet dating has kind of transformed finding a potential partner into a form of online shopping. In the past, most people met through a mutual friend, workplace or the local cattle market of a night club etc. The actual pool of suiters you were exposed to was relatively small. Online dating instantly puts every eligible and interested person within whatever radius you desire under your mouse click. I know the male approach is (apparently) just to message a dick pic to every girl who's pictures don't make you retch. Women seem to prefer to 'window shop' and the choice is so vast, that they probably fall into the mindset, of "he's ok, but there's probably someone every more perfect on the next page". And they get so many messages (ref. dick pics, above), that it inflates their ego and gets them thinking they're way more desirable than they are in reality, making them even more fussy.

But I found myself wondering if it's worth making a massive effort. Developed a "if it happens, it happens" attitude.
Depends how much you need to have intimacy with a woman. It's not difficult, I suppose; you just need to lower your standards. Otherwise you might be waiting a few years. Stop eying up the lithe 20-somethings in the gym and go for the 40-somethings who look like they're losing a battle with a treadmill.
So only ever set your sights on old fat women or you'll never have sex again. There's something (wobbly) to look forward to.
Pretty much; depends on how big your wallet etc is and how long you're willing to wait.

Emily Hart on that ^^^ YouTube video is a comedienne/presenter/vlogger. Don't take her videos too literally as she's doing it for the laughs and the clicks. She's quite funny in her own way.
Whilst I can imagine given her career choice she is irritating and narcissistic I thought her video was pretty reasonable and logical, she didn't list off a load of must-haves, just she wanted to meet someone who she had a spark with, and wasn't in a panicked rush to settle for anyone for the sake of it.

Never watch vloggers or heard of her before but she seems smart, pretty, funny and self-deprecating - on face value an absolute catch if she had a normal job

My friend is currently playing the dating game, a nice guy (has his faults) but head screwed on with a good career. Every time we meet up the stories/messages/sagas that he's been through are unbelievable. I then came to this same conclusion all the nut jobs are left.

The Mrs has a friend who is single (and has been for a while) it is quite obvious what she is after in a man does not exist, yet she's sad she's single..... I tried to explain but I got told off by the boss rofl

A friend of mine is a really lovely girl, relatively easy on the eye yet is in this predicament. It's crazy - her list of 'wants' is so long from height, build, hair colour, eye colour, sense of humour, current income, future income prospects etc etc etc. it's total madness.
Also, if said Girl lives in London, they tend to only want to date a 'Londoner' and not a townie, it doesnt matter if said guy lives in Zone 6 and it takes them longer to get into central than a townie, its still London

These single women in their 30s could have been in a relationship with a nice guy at any point in the last 15 years. Trouble is, they rejected these guys and dated the rugby playing, pushy salesman, white Audi Tdi S line driving, gym junkie, sleeve tat, larger than average watch, shoes with no socks type guys instead.

So they had 15 years on the carousel running up loads of debt and banging a never ending line of these Alpha type of guys. Once they get past 33 they suddenly decide they want to marry exactly the type of guy they rejected for all those years. They will lie about the amount of men they slept with and claim they had to date the bad boys as it made them realise what they wanted all along.

So all the debt goes away, they get a house and when they get bored they can divorce rape the man for the cash and prizes.

It is bit like paying full retail for a 15 year old ex-hire car and then being expected to pay for all the maintenance for the next owner.

To be fair, very large numbers of girls have always lived that way. Raised to believe they are important in an environment where they are bankrolled by someone else. The big change is that blokes have decided to as well but they haven't yet worked out that without a nice rack and a willingness to put out to an older, richer man they aren't going to get bailed out like those girls will. biggrin

I'm surprised the age range is like this as I'm not far off this age range as is my wife. I thought we were the last generation to know what a pension is, to own our own homes, to plan for the future and save money.

Not all women are like that stop looking on Tinder and POF!

I was tempted to post this but I did think I was being a bit too harsh.

I'm the non-Alpha these women used to reject but I'd rather not buy a knackered ex-hire car.

OP couldn't it just be the "type" you are going for? Or are going for you?

Or the method you are using to meet them mean you are seeing the same traits

I know what you mean, however loads of different types of women out there

I'm guessing your perspective is from the "nice guy" and not the rugby playing, pushy salesman, white Audi Tdi S line driving, gym junkie, sleeve tat, larger than average watch, shoes with no socks type guys instead. biggrin
