So what happened to genuine relationships, where expectations were realistic and both parties committed and were honest with one another? As a young man, tell me I’m not the only one asking where this went… where do you find high-caliber women, if any?

Dating apps have really fucked up the game. My girlfriend and I would not have dated on an app as she isn’t my typical “type” I go for. But I love her more than I am attracted to any of those other women

High caliber was supposed to take the place of genuine and sincere

I’m a bit older, so I’ve seen the change in the dating scene, which was pretty easy going, then that changed around 2017-2018, but really during Covid. Honestly, I blame dating apps. To answer your question, you can check out country clubs, high end bars, the bars at high end restaurants during the week, spa resorts, conferences

this might sound weird but if you are in college, hang out where smart people would be on days normally people wouldnt be there, not sure what you mean by high caliber but maybe thats what you mean. Or go to coffee shops/book stores during study hours

The Internet happened. It’s going back to that but give it time. The first people who were happiest to share their nonsense relationship advice were deceptive sensationalist.

Honestly your best bet is Church, and even then it’s difficult.

That’s a good way to find people who actually want to care about their partner instead of just using them for sex or money

What about for guys that aren’t religious? Church isn’t really an option for them

Other than that I’m not sure if there’s anywhere else that’s generally reliable

I also think that’s interesting. I grew up in a very religious community and people are freaks sometimes. Our pastor hooked up with the choir director in a practice room at one point
