Single Women on Dating Sites
This next statement sort of corresponds with what I talk about in some of my self-help books on dating.
It seems like most single women nowadays have delusional ideas about what a man is actually supposed to be, or they're SO independent there's no WAY a guy is going to stick around for all that head-butting, or they constantly show signs of immaturity or an inability to settle down, or they obviously have such low self esteem that they're willing to settle for guys they're just way too good for simply because how they treat them will reinforce how they actually feel about themselves---like crap.
I rarely see single women anymore who exist outside of these categories. What have we as a society done to instill such backward ideas into the minds of these young women?
