00:00:00.000 There was bad behavior, but it wasn't as rampant as it is now. I can't remember a single time where
00:00:05.120 I actually had a date cancel on me, let alone three in one week. What up guys? Welcome to my
00:00:12.140 reaction series. Today, we're listening to a woman talk. God help us, right? And you're listening to
00:00:18.240 me. It's like a double whammy. Now, she's talking about dating in 2022 versus 2025. So anybody
00:00:25.520 that's in like the city or like is kind of in the know and knows people actively dating knows
00:00:31.460 the men are getting tired of matching with fat chicks they're getting tired of they're getting
00:00:35.800 tired of the dates with the no sex they're paying for the dates they're giving attention they're
00:00:40.000 giving their time and they're getting nothing out of it so they're getting pissed and the women are
00:00:43.320 getting pissed uh because they're not getting commitment and they're getting less attention
00:00:48.560 um and now we're gonna listen to women complain online about it so let's hear
00:00:52.500 2022 i went on okay so she said in the beginning she said in 2022 she was on hinge and now it's
00:01:00.380 2025 so many dates i met so many new people i was active i was consistently matching with people
00:01:07.000 talking to people whatnot three years later the next time that i've been actively on hinge like
00:01:11.820 constantly checking the app every day every other day is currently in 2025 the way that the app and
00:01:17.940 the people's behavior on the app has changed so much is crazy to me made a video the other day
00:01:23.200 saying that i had three different dates set up last week every single one of them canceled so a
00:01:27.660 lot of women i wonder why they're canceling i wonder why and it got me thinking like do you
00:01:33.120 think it's a looks thing like she's catfishing maybe oh no i don't know if that's if that's her
00:01:37.980 avatar that she does not look like her avatar oh my god of how my experience in 2025 on hinge has
00:01:45.320 compared to my experience in 2022. I do want to say I do live in a different city. In 2022,
00:01:50.040 I lived in Seattle and now I live in London. However, I feel like the patterns that I've
00:01:54.540 been noticing and like the differences between 2022 and 2025 are more representative of the time
00:02:00.120 versus like a city comparison. 2022, I was easily able to set up one to two dates per week. No
00:02:05.800 problem. There was bad behavior, but it wasn't as rampant as it is now. Yeah. Cause a lot of
00:02:11.260 the strategies that women employ on men men have started employing on women so i i joined all the
00:02:17.300 are we dating the same guy groups for research purposes obviously and and i was just checking
00:02:23.340 you know i'm just kidding just kidding and um it's actually hilarious watching like what the
00:02:28.060 problems are in the dating market you know men are using photoshop now that's that's one of the new
00:02:33.200 like trends i've seen he doesn't actually look like that and the men are it's the men are using
00:02:38.220 filters too um probably not men have morals so they don't really like doing immoral things but
00:02:43.140 the women don't so it's kind of an unfair game but it's to get two mids on a date it's like the
00:02:47.920 woman has all these filters the men have all these filters now they meet and they're like
00:02:51.460 i'm disappointed i can't remember a single time where i actually had a date cancel on me let alone
00:02:58.280 three in one week he may realize that like bigger than just hinge bigger than just dating
00:03:02.600 relationships dating apps there is a canceling epidemic hinge is just one of the places that we
00:03:08.440 see this play out first time that i was seriously on hinge was in 2022 i went on so many dates i met
00:03:14.360 so many new people i was active i was consistently matching with people talking to people whatnot
00:03:19.560 three years later the next time that i've been actively on hinge like okay and they're gonna
00:03:24.200 be mad in the comments they say is it normal to date 12 men in a month now yeah it is actually
00:03:30.120 for women in the dating market i hate to say this i'm just being honest guys it you got to put
00:03:34.600 yourself in women's shoes we're trying to humanize us to some degree how many men would turn down 12
00:03:41.880 dates a month with beautiful women most men don't have that option that's why they're bitter and so
00:03:46.440 that's when when you see people applying morality it's generally um an indicator that they're not
00:03:52.840 sexually successful and it's because um because you know if if the mikey here is saying oh is
00:04:02.760 that normal to date 12 men a month men that are sexually successful no they're like oh yeah it is
00:04:07.540 these hoes run through constantly checking the app every day every other day is currently in 2025
00:04:13.320 the way that the app and the people's behavior on the app has changed so much is crazy to me
00:04:19.240 made a video the other day saying that i had three different dates set up last week every single one
00:04:23.260 of them canceled and it got me thinking of how my experience in 2025 on hinge has compared to my
00:04:29.840 experience in 2022 i do want to so the men are canceling on the women say i do live in a different
00:04:34.560 city in 2022 i lived in seattle and now i live in london however i feel like the patterns that
00:04:40.080 i've been noticing and like the differences between 2022 and 2025 are more representative
00:04:44.880 of the time versus like a city comparison 2022 i was easily able to set up one to two dates per
