This is some of the best common sense dating advice for men that I’ve seen in a long time. It’s good to see someone from the progressive side step up to the plate.

And I think guys need to hear it from a man. There are so many grifters out there, looking to take advantage of lonely men for money and clicks. I heard a lot of Red Pill terminology in those questions.

Being unwillingly single sucks, a lot. You want it to end. It’s easy to make a buck by pretending women are just a puzzle to solve rather than individuals who want different things. When every problem gets distilled down to “one weird trick” how are they ever going to learn?

I like the question from the guy who followed all the steps and became a “high value male” able to attract all the beautiful women you could want – only to realize they were also shallow and stupid. The kind of women who respond to gimmicks.

I could have used some of the advice Beau gave as a young man. My father was a good man, but wasn’t able to help much because he also had trouble dating – he just happened to get lucky when he found Mom.

Dating is hard for some guys and the quality of off-the-shelf advice wasn’t much better pre-Internet.

Like my dad, I got lucky when I found my wife – at 47. I wouldn’t have wanted to wind up with anyone else – probably would’ve wound up stuck in a small town with an ex and inlaws who hated me. But I could’ve led a less lonely life up to that point.
