I think it kind of sucks for both men and women, doesn’t it? Cuz it means more ppl are relying on dating apps or not trying/giving up.

Not really. Not everyone does and not all approaches are online. 45% is a small number

It’s close to half. Not exactly a crisis point…yet. Some of those ppl are using dating apps or don’t want to date, which is fine. It’s cause for concern tho, especially w/ dating apps not working for a lot of ppl.

so why do you think this is? do you think there’s a way to amend this if it’s concerning to you?

And why do you think it’s a concern and why not find ways to combat it?

I can only speak from personal experience and concerning the ppl Ik, but it’s lack of confidence. The easy answer is men need to just approach. Harder answer I think is to create more 3rd spaces, more opportunities to approach so it feels like less pressure.

U might see some guys do that as they realize the downsides of online dating. Or just give up…😭

Right? 😂 I’m a guy who hasn’t asked a girl out, and most of the guys who are my friends haven’t either.
