🤔 #SingleFriendStruggles Who else has a friend who is constantly wondering why they’re still single? 🤷♂️ Let’s be real, sometimes we know the answer but don’t want to hurt their feelings. But hey, maybe it’s time to spill the tea ☕️ and help them out a bit!
So, why do you think your friend is still single? Is it because they have unrealistic expectations? 🤔 Or maybe they need to work on their communication skills? 💬 Have they been stuck in the past and need to let go? 🕰️ Let’s dig deep and dish out some honest advice!
I’m asking this question because I believe sometimes we all need a little tough love to see things from a different perspective. As a friend, it’s our duty to help them grow and improve themselves, even if it means pointing out some harsh truths.
Let’s have some fun with this and maybe even learn something along the way! Feel free to share your thoughts and experiences in the comments below. Let’s help our single friends level up their dating game! 💪🏼💕 #LoveLifeTips #FriendshipGoals #ToughLoveTime
Poor man has a face only a mother can love and doesn’t even have two nickels to rub together
He smells like a box of dead frogs and he refers to women as “females”.
My friend has an ideal woman in his mind which he just can’t find. He barely tries anymore so I doubt he’ll find anyone in the near future. We try to set him up on a date every now and then but he just straight out rejects the idea of it.
When I was younger, the girls I knew who were single kept throwing themselves at guys in successful bands, trying to get them to give up the easy sex they were having with groupies
They couldn’t understand why a young man who has threesomes with different girls every weekend wouldn’t want to give all that up for them
She’s ugly yet picky.
He goes after mentally unstable chicks….Like i understand the appeal of toxicity but it has to become tiring after a while no?
Not to him, he always finds a gf whom resembles his first gf, gets attached, and then he gets dumped, then he has those “never dating again” speeches….and vicious cycle repeats usually once in two years
Personal hygein. Dude wonders why noone gives him the time of day but his hair constantly looks like he just washed it with a bag of potatoe chips. His smell didnt help at all either.
He tries WAY too hard when he sees a woman he wants to get with, and comes off as thirsty.
His standards are too high on looks, he only wants to date women that look like models…
edit: He’s not really my friend anymore
This fucking guy. He’s almost 50 he’s got all the toys. He makes good money. It’s selection. He keeps meeting trash online who try to whirlwind themselves into wives because they’re afraid of being lonely. They push him too hard so he can’t get to know any of them and he moves on.
Dude’s got to either meet women IRL or start traveling because the method he is using keeps netting the same problem over and over again.
He’s got ADD and is in the ‘spectrum’, can’t keep his mind focused on anything (including women) for more than 1 minute and only listens to death metal and scottish pipebands. If that’s not enough, he wants a girl that also only listens to death metal and pipebands, pref. 15 years younger than him (he’s almost 50) since he doesn’t fancy 40+ females. He’s also been unemployed for most of his life.
Strangely, he *does* have a high IQ. It’s just the EQ that is missing.
zero confidence, drinks too much
He’s afraid of women. And I’ve said that to him multiple times but he refuses to believe me
Every time he has something nice going with a girl he talks to he self sabotages and ends up finding a million reasons why it would never work
They are friends with me
He is a 3/10 looks wise and has little money but only attracted to physically beautiful women and won’t settle.
I get it, I really do.. but he’s 37 and never had a woman because the fat girls, mentally ill and unattractive ones on his level he doesn’t want to sleep with so can’t be in a relationship even though there’s been offers.
Difficult to know what to do
He doesn’t know how to look after himself. He’s a nice guy, loving and not terrible looking. Just is a slob.
He’s weird with women. He brings a dozen roses to a first date. He plans casual drinks and movie (theater) and shows up in a suit. After 2 dates he starts thinking about “their future together.”
And yes I’ve told him that’s why they stop calling. He says that’s just how he is and they need to accept it.
Not a friend but multiple coworkers (and this goes for a lot of people).
They think they are 8s when really they are 5s… but when a fellow 5 is interested in them they take offense and aren’t interested.
Particularly I have this like 38 year old really conservative not super attractive guy, so he’s looking for a trad wife type girl that doesn’t have kids and has a bunch of other requirements and it’s like “dude, you’re almost 40, you’re not the hottest person, and you don’t even have the best personality”, it’s not difficult to understand why you’re single
My good buddy has little trouble getting into relationships: he’s tall, funny, a doctor, has a cute dog…women like him. But he’s constantly single because his type is mentally ill, emotionally unstable, unpredictable women. He just cannot maintain physical or emotional interest in a woman without those characteristics. It’s not exciting to him if they’re healthy.
Honestly I’ve been that way a little too, so I get it.
He has that need of “one-up” everybody. Sure dude, you are the best of the best in everything.
As a friend, I don’t mind because I don’t get to see him more than a couple of hours every now and then. But I can’t even imagine living with him.
I told him already and nothing has changed.
He’s a rare sort these days: in denial, even to himself, about being gay. Bonus points for alcoholism.
They put zero effort into everything, including personal hygiene. Can’t even be bothered to keep their house clean.
He’s a fucking disaster. Physically he’s a 3 and when you add in the rest of his situation he drops to a 2. Socially anxious, works menial jobs for close to minimum wage in his mid 30s, drives a shitbox, lives in a hovel, and is an alcoholic and weed addict.
And he’s still hoping to find that doctor or lawyer to have kids with and be a stay-at-home-dad.
Man child
No, dude, it isn’t cool to have a messy house and have your mom come over sometimes to clean your bathroom in your 30s
Also, “what you feel like doing” isn’t actually the most important thing in the world.
Grow up
Anger issues and unrealistic expectations. Good sweet guy at heart, just won’t relax.
He’s severely depressed and sort of tries to just “go through the motions”, but admitted he doesn’t even care enough or like the company of others, despite craving a relationship.
Most of the men I know are still single because they think it’s necessary for women to have the same hobbies as them. Most of the women I know are taken because their men decided to have the same hobbies as them for about a week or two when they first met.
I have to say…a lot of folks I meet where I live are smart but not clever. Like…they don’t understand their partners fears, anxieties, or aspirations, but they’ll fuck em because they both like game of thrones and have the same hot take that I’ve only heard 6 times before instead of the usual 10…
He has a tendency of being INCREDIBLY black and white in his way of thinking. And if he’s in to someone he REALLY is in to someone, as in: If that person only 10% shows that she likes him he’s all over her. And if she doesn’t respond to his messages in let’s say an hour he start saying that he’s being ghosted and that she’s a pos.
He’s now talking to a girl, met her 2 times. Yet she has kids so she’s busy. The amount of times he went from “We’re calling eachother babe, i really like her. Can’t wait until we get together” to “What a piece of shit she is, she hasn’t spoken to me in a whole day. How hard is it to at least find a gap to message me, she IS constantly posting stories on Snapchat” is a lot. It’s drama 2-3 times a week. And they’re both in their 30s.
My dude has absolutely zero ambition. Wants the world to accommodate him and takes no steps to make himself strong, smart, or capable.
I love the guy and we’re good buddies but he’s basically a 30 year old teenager.
He’s got a lot of good qualities that he could build and expand on. Dude is smart, tall, and is alot of fun. Just lacks any discipline and chronically avoids any form of responsibility.
Which is something I could respect except that he’s unhappy. Get real mad when I imply that the kind of happiness he’s looking for is earned.
He’s the classic example of the phrase “we’ve tried absolutely nothing and it’s not working.”
As a counterpoint I’ve got another buddy who seems like he lacks ambition if you just look at him but he’s in fact an accomplished artist with commissioned work all over the city. He’ll sell a bunch of art and live off the money and when the money dries up he’ll get a job for a bit, crank out a bunch of work, sell it, and then quit his job.
That dude is happy as fuck with his lifestyle.
Whenever someone blatantly flirts with him, he gets nervous and starts to give a long lecture about the history of crossbows in the late medieval Holy Roman Empire, until the lady gets uncomfortable and shuffles away.
Then the next day he strongly denies that anyone was flirting with him and that we must have imagined it all.
They’re obnoxiously loud and have to be the center of attention
He keeps talking about how his ex cheated on him. It’s been 6 years now.
He does the Naruto run to his PT Cruiser.
My friend has a seriously monotone voice to the point where everything sounds super sarcastic or seems uninterested. Paired with a resting bitch face.
I wish my mate was single. His wife is an absolute wretch.
My wife’s “friend”: She’s not *nearly* attractive enough for how high maintenance she is. She *has* to share her opinion on absolutely everything, and it’s usually dumb as shit. Judgemental as fuck. And on top of all that she’s a wet blanket. It’s like she sustains herself by sucking the fun out of everything.
