Online is over taking real life. Hence Amazon (rather than stores), Google (rather than libraries), OF (rather than divorce), work from home (rather than offices). Kids who have seen their moms struggle as single moms and/or dad getting financially destroyed in divorce/ child support/ custody, are growing up and opting out of this BS.

Getting into the relationship is the easy bit. Maintaining the relationship over a 5, 10, 15 year period is the difficult bit. As Orion says, online is beginning to overtake "in real life" as the easier/stress-free/happier option.

So true. I guess the difference is the prossie is cheaper and more adventurous in order to secure repeat customers. Wives are extremely expensive. Trust me, I lost my money, house and kid in my divorce. Plus on 10+ years of child support.

Looks like men and women are happy with online rather than IRL. Hence the declining marriage and birth rates. It makes sense when you think about it. Women probably don't want to be single moms. And men don't want to lose custody and pay child support. Online seems to be the better and safer system.

💯% facts. If you see your dad lose his money, house and kids in divorce, why would you want to repeat that BS when you grow up.

Another benefit is you don't lose your money, house and kids in divorce. 👍

What is draining about relationships with nice guys? Would the relationship be less draining if you re-directed some of your time into other things, e.g. your siblings, your parents, your friends, your career, etc? Why would you become a mother to your nice guy partner? Are women's emotional / romantic expectations realistic or too difficult for most men to achieve? I think women put too much pressure on themselves to have a Hollywood-level relationships. I think our parents / grandparents generation had much more realistic and balanced expectations of what a relationship should be.

Even if you marry, you will end up dying alone due to things like divorce and parental alienation. Problem is, if you marry, you will die without your money, house and kids, as they will all be taken away from you in divorce. Its lose-lose for men. Online is slowly becoming better than in real life.

"boyfriend experience". I'm definitely stealing that quote. It is brilliant. Too many SIMPs in the friendzone providing the BFE.

@msc8382 in my opinion, the concept of the high value man doesn't exist, only babies and child support are high value, not the man. This is the reason why women want marriage and also the reason why women want divorce. Women have relationships goals, e.g. babies and child support, the man is just a placeholder, until she achieves those goals.

😆😆😆😆. Enjoy the decline.

@AceKite00 I think the relationship failure rate is around 80% for unmarried and 50% for marriages. So either way, it doesn't look good for you. But good luck and you are definitely making the right decision not to marry.

Assuming you are male, maybe she will take it for now. You get married, buy her a house, and have kids, and then she takes it all in divorce. OF and PHub and other online offerings have now over taken real life. Sad but true.

@rogerm3708 💯% facts. women don't want the man. they want the kids, child support and lifestyle to which they have become accustomed to. its the reason so many high value men get divorced after they have given the wife the house and kids (jeff bezos, elon musk, bill gates, tom brady, brad pitt, johnny depp, ruler of dubai, prince charles, arnold schwartzenegger, etc ).

When male Gen Z get to age 40, having lose their money, house and kids in divorce, and needing to pay 18 years of alimony and child support, I am pretty sure they will change their mind. The problem with Gen Z men is that they lack experience and don't realize what is in store for them.

Women want marriage, but they also want divorce. Make it, make sense.
