What if you have been on more than ten blind dates and don't want to pursue a relationship, but you do want to get married? By Anonymous | Published on December 18, 2024

I've had more than ten blind dates recently, and they've all ended in failure. It seems that there's something wrong with the mentality of girls nowadays. The purpose of two complete strangers going on a blind date is to get married and start a family, isn't it?

It always feels like men are born to owe women something, whether it's the man paying for dinner, the man buying gifts for holidays, or the man taking the initiative in every conversation. This really annoys me.

Oh, the questioner, the present is good!

From what you've told me, it seems like your main goal in meeting someone is to get married. I get the impression that you're getting married for the sake of it, but have you thought about or planned for your married life after the wedding?

For women, marriage requires a lot of sacrifice. Life and family arrangements after marriage, as well as pregnancy, will affect their health and work. Childbirth will take time away from work, and there is the matter of child support and education. All of this requires a certain material foundation. If the chosen partner does not have the strength or potential to provide this material foundation, then life after marriage will be relatively difficult.

This is just my two cents, but I think letting the man pay or give a gift during a blind date is a great way to get a feel for each other.

I'm not for or against this method, but I thought I'd share my thoughts because I think it's important to understand the reasons behind our choices. Everyone has their own reasons for doing what they do, and there are often beliefs and values at play that influence our behaviors.

It's totally okay not to want to pay the bill on a blind date! But, if you're being honest, it might make the other person feel like you don't think they're worth your effort. And, sadly, that could mean the date might end without a second date.

When it comes to marriage, it's so important for women to find a partner who is down-to-earth and has a certain degree of life security. Otherwise, they might end up paying a lot when entering into marriage. We all want a happy marriage, and marriage is not a game; it's a lifelong matter for many people. It's so important to choose carefully!

I wish you the very best in finding the right person for you!

Dear host,

It seems that the experience of more than ten blind dates may not have been as enjoyable as you had hoped. It's possible that the woman in question did not practice AA, acted like a princess, and waited for the prince to pursue her, which might have been a source of frustration for you. If you also agree that the above issue could be a contributing factor to the challenges you've faced with blind dates, it might be helpful to consider adjusting the criteria for blind dates in order to find a more suitable match.

It would seem that the current situation of matchmaking in China, or the trend of marriage, is that during the stage of getting to know each other, the ratio of men pursuing women is higher. There are a number of reasons for this, which we will explore. First, it seems that men are more willing to take the initiative and show their advantages in order to attract women's admiration. This can stimulate men's sense of victory or defeat. The advantages displayed during this period include personal qualities, wealth, background, etc. Second, women, out of traditional modesty and self-respect, and the practical needs of various special periods in the future, will also take this opportunity to observe all aspects of men. Among these, men's attitude towards money is one of them. If, during the pursuit stage, men only care about themselves and don't want to bear the slightest burden, then many women are not confident about entrusting their future to the other person. After all, pregnancy, childbirth, child-rearing, housework, etc., are the responsibilities of family members, and women's contribution and burden will be heavier. Therefore, during matchmaking, most women let men pay the bill and give more gifts, as long as they can examine the degree of importance men attach to them.

The above is a general rule of thumb, but if the hostess herself is looking for a maverick new woman as a spouse, it would be advisable for her to make her dating preferences clear during the blind date. For example, if you want an independent and equal relationship with your girlfriend during the dating period, rather than a submissive or gold-digging girlfriend, this will not only avoid more than ten unpleasant experiences, but also increase your chances of success in blind dating.

Dear question asker,

If I may, I would like to offer you a 360-degree hug. I can really understand how you feel right now.

☞I used to encounter similar problems and have had all kinds of emotions. I always thought that I had a positive outlook on life and knew how to get along with others, but I often found myself on the sidelines. Watching people around me who were not as good as me get married, I couldn't help but feel some negative emotions. Because I knew I had done enough, I started to express my frustration with what I felt were the shortcomings of society.

☞ While complaining can help release emotions in the moment, it may not address the underlying issues. To move forward, it's essential to acknowledge and face reality.

Later, I came to understand that what I had missed was not as significant as I had initially thought. These experiences have taught me that not everyone you spend time with is necessarily someone you can or want to sleep with. As the saying goes, "It takes ten years to get in the same boat, but a hundred years to sleep together." Some people really grow up with you. If you think about it this way, it might help to bring a little more peace to your emotions.

☞It might be helpful to consider stepping back from a situation and viewing it from a third-person perspective when we feel certain about accusing others. This could potentially offer a different perspective. For instance, if we imagine that pandas love bamboo, it's possible that if a panda fell in love with a tiger, it might offer the tiger its best bamboo to eat. Would the tiger appreciate this gesture? From the panda's perspective, it's understandable that this might feel a bit frustrating.

It would be interesting to consider what might happen if the panda's partner were also a panda. It seems that the outcome might be different. It may be helpful to remember that love cannot be obtained by hard work. It might be more beneficial to be patient and wait for it to blossom.

I kindly ask you to believe me when I say that only by being a positive and optimistic person can you perceive the ease and joy of life more. Because my motto is "positive, optimistic; relaxed and happy," I practice it and benefit from it.

☞The sky is floating five words: "That's not a problem," right? ! At the moment, does your mood feel a little more relaxed? I hope my answer can help you find the strength to be positive again. I believe and am sure that you can do it. Come on.

Hello, my name is Strawberry!

From the question and the answers, it seems like the questioner has been on more than ten blind dates recently, but unfortunately, the results haven't been so great. It seems like the reason for choosing not to continue is that when going out together, the final bill is always paid by the questioner. So in this regard, the questioner feels that these girls have a problem with their mentality, which can be a bit uncomfortable.

It's important to remember that not all girls in society are like this. During the process, did the question asker take the initiative to say that you should pay? The question asker also said that the two people were strangers, and in the absence of mutual understanding, if the question asker said that you should pay, the girl might not have thought much about it, and some might just want to pay next time.

I've also been on a date as a woman, and I totally get where the questioner is coming from. It's the same for men and women going on a date, and we're living in a society of equality between the sexes. If you don't know who's going to pay, why not flip a coin?

It's so interesting how our minds work, isn't it? I've been thinking about this question a lot recently, and I've come to realize that it all comes down to whether or not there's a label attached to women.

I feel like the questioner's description might be a bit harsh. It's not fair to assume that all girls these days are like that.

After my blind date with my husband, we chose to continue dating, and we never discussed spending. But I would think about who would pay for each meal, or we would go Dutch. So when I knew he didn't want me to pay, sometimes I would secretly pay first. More often than not, he would pay more.

It's not clear from the question whether the guy continued seeing some of the girls. Some guys might think that the girl is looking down on them because she paid the bill, so there might be a few misunderstandings going on.

It's always a good idea to make sure you're on the same page when it comes to dating standards!

Blind dates are a bit of a guessing game, right? You're two strangers, and you only know each other through the person who set up the date. So, before the blind date, did the questioner make their dating standards clear to the introducer? Did the introducer relay that information to the other person?

Some matchmakers are super selective about who they introduce to each other. This can make the first meeting go a bit smoothly, but it might also mean that you don't get to know each other as well as you'd like to. It's totally normal to have different ideas about what you're looking for in a partner, so it's a great idea to think about your own criteria before you go on a date. This way, you'll know whether you're happy with the person you're meeting and you won't waste time or money on a date that's not right for you.

☀️ Method – Be open and honest with each other!

Even if it's a blind date, two strangers are actually equal between the sexes. It's totally normal for the questioner to think this way. If some girls can't accept it, it just means there's a big gap in your three views. Even if you get along after that, you'll probably still see a bigger and bigger gap and feel that the other person is not suitable for you.

Since you don't know each other yet, it's a great chance to talk about all those things you'd like to know more about. You can ask questions and get to know each other better. There are so many different ways men and women can connect, and it's a great way to see what you have in common. You can also decide together whether it's something you want to continue.

☀️ Method – Getting into a relationship is worth putting in a little effort!

The person who asks the question will choose to go on a blind date, which means they have some thoughts about marriage. A blind date may allow the two people to spend less time getting to know each other during the dating process, because they both have the same goal, which is to get married. However, a blind date cannot guarantee that we will know at first sight whether the other person is right for us.

So, if you're looking to get into a relationship, it's important to put in the work! A blind date is about more than just choosing someone to marry. It's also about getting to know someone and seeing if you have things in common. You'll want to consider things like their inner qualities, values, and family.

I really hope my answer helps the original poster. All the best!

Good day, host. Thank you for allowing me to respond.

Upon receiving a system notification that the original poster invited me to answer this question, I discovered that the original poster had already posed the question approximately half a month ago. I hope that the original poster has already identified some potential solutions and is in a better position to proceed.

While the host's self-description is brief and the information is limited, the question involves complex content that cannot be fully addressed with a single answer. I would like to share some of my thoughts and pose a question to the host about how to define "problems" as an answer to the host's question. This will help the host clarify their own confusion and find an answer that suits them.

From the experience of blind dates, what is the definition of "problem"?

Based on the description, it seems that the poster has had more than ten blind dates. It is unclear from the description whether all of the dates were inappropriate after just one meeting. The poster mentioned interactions such as "paying the bill at dinner, giving gifts during the holidays, and initiating conversations," so it is not clear who took the initiative in each blind date and who ended it first.

The objective of examining the "first" and "second" is to re-examine the original poster's "unhappiness" from a different perspective. This will help us to identify the root cause of the problem, which is the mentality of girls nowadays. Once we have identified this, we can then propose solutions to address the issue.

If my understanding is correct, the host has failed in more than ten blind dates. He attributes this to a perceived lack of mental fortitude among women in modern times. This is evidenced by their reluctance to share the cost of consumption during the blind date and to communicate with each other afterwards. Is this an accurate assessment?

The reason the original poster identifies this as a problem can be attributed to their expectations for their future spouse. These expectations include the belief that the woman should both share the cost of spending together and also share the responsibility of communicating with each other after the blind date. Given that both parties are strangers, they are spending and communicating together in order to meet their own needs for marriage. Consequently, they should share the cost and responsibility. Is this an accurate interpretation?

If this understanding is correct, and the woman's performance on the host's blind date goes against the host's expectations, it is reasonable to conclude that the host is dissatisfied. The host's stated dissatisfaction provides a clear indication that the girls' choices are at odds with the host's expectations regarding appropriate behavior. It is possible that the girls have all done the wrong thing.

The underlying implication is that the failed blind date is not a significant issue because the host was ultimately correct in his assessment. However, the host believes that the problem lies in the mentality of the women in question, who were mistaken.

However, the real issue remains unresolved.

The above understanding of the poster's thoughts and feelings, as well as the poster's conclusion that "the girls have some problems in their mentality," is logical and free of issues. Consequently, our thinking will typically conclude at this point: "What else can I do?"

"I have not engaged in any wrongdoing."

If you consider this, you will see that this is where the behaviour stops. The individual in question will say, "Since I am not at fault, I certainly will not make any changes in my thinking or behaviour." We can therefore predict the outcome of continuing to go on blind dates with this way of thinking and acting. It is likely that you will repeat the experience of your previous blind date and feel similar emotions.

This is when the actual issue may become apparent.

The crucial question is: what are you and your partner prepared to invest to fulfill your desire to marry?

I stated a high probability based on the poster's experience with blind dates and my own analysis of the reasons, as well as my understanding of the social phenomenon (fact) in the current living environment, where men are expected to "pursue women" and bear the cost of communication and interaction before marriage. This does not preclude the possibility that the poster may still meet a woman who is willing to share the cost and responsibility of communication and interaction before marriage without being "pursued" by the man, and enter into marriage.

This social phenomenon indicates that women have certain expectations of men they are dating. These expectations include men expressing their needs and showing their sincerity in continuing to date and marry the girl. This should be reflected in men taking the initiative to pay for dinner, buying gifts for women, and taking the initiative to contact women to communicate with each other. It is likely that women have expectations of men that are also misguided. Ten out of ten women will think that their blind date partner has "problems with their mentality" because they are actually unwilling to take the initiative to pay, give gifts, or talk to them.

If this is how they define a "problem," what action should be taken at this time?

I have simplified the topic somewhat, as there are numerous ways in which women's expectations of men are expressed. For instance, I once met someone at a dinner party who was inebriated. This was due to his girlfriend, with whom he had been in a relationship for approximately three or four years, having stipulated that she would only accompany him to obtain a marriage certificate if her name was added to his property ownership certificate.

If everything could be evaluated based on right and wrong, this friend might not be experiencing such distress.

I am unsure of the circumstances that led to this friend's relationship with his girlfriend. However, I believe it is important for the original poster to consider the underlying issue. If you were in this friend's position, what would you choose?

What type of individual are you prepared to marry, and what are you willing to sacrifice for this decision? The reality seems to be that it is not about right or wrong, but about what you want.

I extend my warmest regards to you and the world.

Hello, host.

Hi, I'm Letmefly. I'm here to help you and get your feedback.

The original poster said that he had gone on more than 10 blind dates, but none of them had been successful. He also said that he felt that as a man, he had more responsibilities. I can relate to this feeling of being torn between helplessness and even a little grievance. I'll give the original poster a big hug first.

What can I say? Relationships require commitment from both sides, and blind dates are just a way to get to know someone. So I'd like to remind the poster why she's in such a passive situation in her relationship. Did she have a first love that ended for various reasons, or has she always been single and has no experience or skills in relationships?

One more thing: we can't ask the other person to change to suit us. For example, if the original poster feels that girls nowadays have a bad mentality and that boys are always the ones taking the initiative, we know that in real life, there are also many cases of women chasing after men. Just because the original poster hasn't met one doesn't mean there aren't any.

However, the host can bring up this issue to show that they haven't met someone suitable yet. This might take some time, and the host might want to sign up for some interpersonal communication courses to improve their skills. That way, they can use them on the next blind date or communication.

The host can also use the internet to find resources on their own, in addition to blind dates. As a general rule, whoever is suffering will change.

I hope this is helpful, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts, feedback, and likes.

In today's world, we're seeing a pattern emerge where men tend to take the initiative and women are more passive. This has been the case for thousands of years. There are two main reasons for this. First, men and women are different. Second, there are more men than women. In Chinese culture, scarcity is seen as valuable. With fewer women, they're considered more precious.

This is evident in the numerous matchmaking establishments in major cities, where numerous men print out their profiles for women to peruse. According to the prevailing mindset, this is the optimal approach, prompting men to adopt a more humble demeanor and strive to impress women, as if this is the sole means of securing a date.

After going on so many blind dates, you probably notice some patterns. You have to give a lot, and sometimes the girl may even be richer than you. But the other person doesn't show any initiative and feels justified in thinking that the guy should pay more. This makes people feel discouraged and sad.

Is this the kind of society we live in? It's not equal at all. In fact, there's not much we can do to quickly change this situation, unless we meet some more enlightened girls who also think that it's not necessarily just the guy who pays for the outing. They may also think that the costs can be shared equally, and it's also fine to invite each other in turns.

The ultimate goal of a blind date is to find someone you want to marry and build a life with. Blind dating helps you get to know someone better and see if you have things in common.

Originally, the two people have never met before and are complete strangers. It's like appearing in each other's world without any defenses or concerns.

It's pretty amazing when you finally muster the courage to face the other person on a blind date. But not every date will end in success. These days, people aren't necessarily looking to get married or achieve instant success.

There are so many choices for girls that they want guys with a house and a car, a stable job, a monthly salary of over 10,000 yuan, a lot of savings, and no character blemishes or behavior blemishes.

Then there's the matter of parents having their own medical insurance and social security to take care of them. They're not the type to cause trouble. So the more requirements there are, the lower the success rate of the blind date will be.

It's not like men are born to owe women anything. We're all just ordinary people, and there's nothing to owe.

Since you were strangers before, there's nothing to be owed to each other. It doesn't matter. You can still consider it from all aspects. For example, you can agree to each pay some expenses for the other, spend within a range acceptable to each other, and generate love. This is also the necessary basis for understanding each other's living habits.

If you compromise now, won't there be even more discomfort in the future, when you're together or married? It's better to express it now. People already have a lot of dissatisfaction inside, so it's better to know more clearly what kind of state you really want to achieve.

What are your needs? Don't be a pushover. Even if you give a lot, the other person may not agree.

While the desire to get married is strong, not everyone is a good match for you. Be patient until you meet the right person. Best of luck!

Good day.

Your question is thought-provoking. You posit that, given the equality of men and women, why is it that in the context of marriage or dating, men are often in a position where they feel compelled to take the initiative, as if they must take the first step to show their interest in women in order to gain their affections?

Firstly, the concept of gender equality implies that men and women are independent and equal in terms of personality. However, it is important to acknowledge the differences between men and women in terms of physiology and personality traits. The varying hormones present in men and women result in differences in personality. For instance, men are typically more aggressive and proactive, and they tend to seek stimulation, challenges, competition, and other masculine traits. In contrast, women often display gentleness and obedience, as well as passivity and conservatism.

However, these masculine and feminine characteristics are not separate. Both masculine and feminine traits can be found in individuals of any gender. Moreover, in modern society, with the development of productivity, the differences in the social division of labor between men and women are shrinking. In many cases, the differences in the social functions of men and women are becoming smaller and smaller. Some people pursue absolute gender equality. Some women will demand an AA system when dating in order to maintain equality with men. Some women will be very proactive in their interactions with men. The original poster has such a requirement, which is actually not wrong. It may also be a trend in social development. However, there are still some basic functional differences between men and women that cannot be completely changed at present.

In terms of entering into a close relationship, the optimal approach is to identify the solution that best suits your needs.

Given the questioner's current mindset, it would be prudent to exercise patience and await the arrival of a suitable partner. Based on the outcomes of the previous ten encounters, there may still be a limited number of such individuals, making it challenging to connect with them. It is, therefore, essential to overcome anxiety and adopt a more patient approach.

It is often perceived that modern women have certain psychological issues. While this may be a valid observation, it is more constructive to focus on personal mindset adjustments rather than attributing these issues to external factors. In today's social landscape, how can you align your mindset to achieve your desired outcomes?

First, it is important to let go of any anxious state of mind and take the time to meet the right person for you. This may be what people often refer to as fate in relationships. Perhaps when you meet the right person, it will inspire the initiative you already have. At that point, your initiative will no longer be passive, but a genuine willingness, and this inner struggle of yours will disappear.

Secondly, it is important to work hard to develop and become the best version of yourself. Additionally, it is crucial to utilise your personal attributes to attract more outstanding individuals who will pursue you on their own initiative.

For two individuals to form a successful partnership, they must possess a profound understanding of one another, espouse analogous values, facilitate seamless communication, and demonstrate a mutual emotional investment. Only when these prerequisites are met can they collaborate effectively and establish a thriving enterprise.

I am optimistic that the response from Hongyu will prove beneficial. I appreciate your inquiry.

First of all, I'm going to give you a big hug.

From your question, it's clear you're not the proactive type. It's surprising the other person hasn't noticed or is embarrassed to take the initiative. I have a few suggestions.

First: Be proactive and state your character traits to avoid misunderstandings.

Despite the 21st century, many people still adhere to the outdated view that "the man must be the initiator and the woman must be passive." If a man is not particularly active, people will often assume he doesn't love them. In this situation, it's best to declare your character traits upfront: "This is my character trait. I hope you can respect it." There will be girls who like this type of guy.

Second: Don't put all your eggs in one basket and expect matchmaking to get you married.

Blind dates are a good way for young people to get to know each other and start dating. However, there are many other ways to meet someone you like, such as meeting a girl you like at work, joining an interest group, or meeting new people at a friend's gathering. These ways of getting to know someone are more natural than blind dates. You don't have to be bound by the "boy takes the initiative, girl is passive" rule when you start dating.

Third: You will find a girlfriend with a lively and cheerful personality.

Boyfriends and girlfriends can have similar or complementary personalities. If you don't like to be too proactive, find a girlfriend who is more outgoing and lively and doesn't care who takes the initiative in a relationship.

However, this method does have some potential drawbacks. For instance, you may face some gossip during your relationship.

I think that covers everything. I'm sure you'll find the perfect girl for you soon. Good luck!

Hello, dear question asker!

I totally get where you're coming from.

It's totally understandable that you want to get married, but going on blind dates has been a bit of a dead end, and it's understandably caused you a lot of worry and resentment.

Let's take a step back and look at things objectively, shall we?

It can be so frustrating when it feels like there's something wrong with the mentality of girls nowadays. We all know that the purpose of going on a blind date between two complete strangers is to get married and start a family! It can feel like men are born to owe women something, and they pay for dinner, give gifts during the holidays, and always have to take the initiative in every conversation. It's so sad when this happens.

It can be really disappointing when you feel like you've made the first move and haven't been rewarded with marriage.

It can be so frustrating when you've taken the initiative, made the effort, and done everything you were supposed to do, and yet it still doesn't lead to marriage. It's natural to feel a little discouraged after more than ten blind dates.

I totally get it. It can be really frustrating when things don't work out the way you expect. Do you feel a little disgusted with women, or do you reject the whole idea of blind dates?

I'd love to know how you judge whether you want to marry the other person during a blind date. You said that the man always makes the first move, so I'm wondering if you could change your perspective on that?

If you were a girl, would you pursue a guy like yourself? And how do you determine your relationship with a girl when you are spending time with her? I'd love to know your thoughts on this!

It's okay, it's totally normal to feel a bit confused about what to do on a blind date. You might think that dinner and a movie is the way to go, but if you really want to get married, it can be a great way to see if there's a spark. It's like observing the other person's conversation, mannerisms, and attitude towards the waiter during dinner to decide if they are worth marrying.

No matter what you do, whether you're in a relationship or getting married, it's so important to have a positive outlook on life and to be considerate of others' feelings. The other person will be able to sense this during the dating process and will respond accordingly, so it's a great idea to keep this in mind!

⑥If you're feeling a bit worried about the cost of a blind date, have you had a good chat with the girl to explain things?

People who get married these days are more cautious than before, and it's not so easy to believe that a man who invites a girl to dinner is someone who is worthy of being trusted with a lifetime. So, is getting married really the goal?

It's not always easy to believe that a man who invites a girl to dinner is someone who is worthy of being trusted with a lifetime. But relationships don't develop just because you have a few meals together.

This might affect your state of mind, my friend.

If you're always thinking about getting married, it can make you feel really anxious. It's totally normal to feel this way! Why not do something you enjoy? You could travel, go for a run, get a kitten or puppy, have a chat with your best friend on the phone, or go out with your best friend and have a good catch up.

Just a friendly reminder:

Girls are actually very easy to satisfy. It's all about the details! If a girl doesn't feel your sincerity, she naturally won't give you her heart. It's up to you to analyze the situation. If you think the girl is just using you for dinner, you can propose an A.A. system. If you think the girl is the one you want to marry, then treat her well and be sincere with her.

Show the boy some manners and take it slow. It's important to let him know that you're interested in developing a relationship with him that could lead to marriage, but you're not looking for anything too rushed.

Getting married is a big, beautiful event in life, and it's something that's important to both men and women. I truly believe that good things come to those who wait!

Like delicious food, it takes a long process to prepare. Just remember, you need to get the timing right to achieve the right texture!

I really hope you can meet the right person!

I really hope what I said can help!

Good day, host.

The host's history of unsuccessful experiences on marriage-and-love-12889.html" target="_blank">blind dates has resulted in a negative emotional state.

It is first necessary to ascertain the reason for undertaking a blind date.

The question thus arises as to whether one may wish to pursue a romantic relationship without the intention of marriage.

This represents a contradiction. The host desires to get married, yet is reluctant to pursue romantic relationships.

It is analogous to a situation in which an individual is hungry but is reluctant to engage in the act of cooking.

In other words, the host's desire to get married is not contingent on reciprocation of love; rather, it is a personal aspiration.

One might inquire as to the logical coherence of this idea.

What are the factors that can be used to negotiate the outcome of a blind date?

In recent times, I have participated in over ten blind dates, all of which have ultimately proved unsuccessful.

It appears that contemporary young women may exhibit certain psychological traits that could be perceived as problematic.

The aspiration to marry is a comprehensible one. It represents a common goal and pursuit among individuals.

One might inquire as to the specific skills and attributes that the host possesses, which serve to attract the other person.

One might inquire whether the aforementioned assessment of the girl's mentality is a subjective opinion or if it is a reflection of her own sentiments.

Irrespective of the family circumstances, educational background, or occupational setting of the host,

While the original poster is evaluating others, the other person is also evaluating the poster's overall conditions.

It can be reasonably deduced that the original poster has not yet encountered an individual who aligns with their preferences.

It is erroneous to assume that the mentality of all girls can be defined based on one's own point of view, given the considerable variation in mindsets among individuals.

Please describe the type of person you are interested in.

The objective of a first encounter between two individuals who are previously unknown to each other is, in essence, to ascertain whether there is a compatibility that could potentially lead to a long-term relationship and, ultimately, the formation of a family unit.

It is often perceived that men are born with a sense of obligation towards women.

The prevailing social norm dictates that men should pay for dinner and give gifts on holidays. Additionally, men are expected to take the initiative in conversations. These expectations contribute to a sense of discontent among some individuals.

The adage states that it is more straightforward for men to pursue romantic interests than for women to do so.

Have you encountered a woman who is amenable to pursuing a romantic interest in you?

In the absence of such a response, the onus is on the male to pursue the female.

To be precise, the objective is to attract the other person.

To be more precise, one must cultivate one's personal attributes in order to attract the opposite sex.

The majority of women express a preference for men who exhibit qualities such as charm, dependability, and broad-mindedness.

It is evident that women are not attracted to men who are narrow-minded, calculating, or petty.

The level of commitment and investment in a relationship is significantly higher after marriage than before.

The host determines which course of action will prove more cost-effective.

The institution of marriage is not merely a means of finding a suitable partner with whom to cohabit.

It is essential to strive for self-improvement, demonstrate care and consideration for one another, and embrace mutual acceptance.

Even if the host is not particularly remarkable, but possesses sufficient love, they will also attract individuals who appreciate them.

Love is unconditional, whereas a transaction is not.

In a transaction, the party who suffers the greatest loss is often the one who has invested the most in the outcome.

The phenomenon of love is not something that is actively sought; rather, it is something that is attracted to us.

In the event that mutual attraction is not currently evident, it would be prudent to focus on one's own actions first.

Anxiety about the outcome will inevitably lead to a less satisfactory result.

When a fortuitous event occurs, it is impossible to evade its consequences.

I would like to extend my best wishes for your success.

In the month of June, I experience a profound sense of warmth and affection towards the world.

Stephanie Swift Life is a stream that flows into the ocean of eternity.

I can see why you feel frustrated, but not every woman views blind dates as a path to marriage. People have different expectations and paces when it comes to relationships.

Lillian Bryant Teachers are the painters who color the canvases of students' minds with knowledge.

It sounds like you're feeling quite pressured by societal norms. It's important to remember that relationships are about mutual respect and both partners giving and receiving. Maybe try focusing on building connections based on shared interests and values.

Rebecca Anderson Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.

Feeling like you owe something in every interaction can be draining. Have you considered expressing your feelings openly with potential partners? Communication is key, and finding someone who appreciates you for who you are might ease those frustrations.

Johann Anderson Life is a marathon, not a sprint.

It seems like you've had a string of disappointing experiences. Sometimes it takes time to find the right person who shares your goals. Try not to generalize; each person is unique and looking for different things in a partner.

Denise Miller To be honest, as this world goes, is to be one man picked out of ten thousand.

Your concerns are valid, but perhaps the issue isn't just with others' mentality but also with the setup of these blind dates. Have you thought about meeting people through activities or groups where you share common interests instead? That way, the focus is less on dating and more on natural connection.
