Dating and relationships are difficult even on a good day. And good days are pretty rare. Unfortunately, that is the reality everyone lives in when navigating the romantic world. Especially women. But at least they have a place to vent.

The subreddit r/FemaleDatingStrategy has 175K members (or as it calls them, queens), constantly discussing their love lives, and that includes all the nonsense that arises too. Continue scrolling and check out what they have to say.

Took me a sec to realize it, but good going. You have to consider yourself first.

To help you get a better understanding of these posts, Bored Panda got in touch with dating coach, 2 million view TED speaker, and media personality Hayley Quinn. She believes that "dating is different for men and women. However, you'd be wrong to think that one gender has it easy."

"Instead men and women often face equal and opposite problems to one another," Quinn said. "Guys might struggle to think of how to approach a woman, and women (who traditionally and maybe wrongly) have been told they can't make the first move and so panic over where they can find all the guys that want to approach them."

    I've never understood this...if you lose control over what a woman wears then you need some serious help. The problem definitely isn't the clothes.

    In the world of online dating, Quinn also sees noticeable disparities. "Guys may feel like they're having to move heaven and earth to get one lousy response from a woman, whilst women can feel overwhelmed and harassed by unsuitable suitors," she explained. "Men could usually learn from women that they need to have higher standards for the women they interact with, and women could take a leaf out of men's dating and learn how they too can be proactive."

    In 2020, the Pew Research Center surveyed Americans to find out more about their love life. While single-and-looking men and women reported equal levels of dissatisfaction with their dating lives and the ease of finding people to date, women were more likely to say they have had some particularly negative experiences.

    Most women who were single and looking to date (65%) said they have experienced at least one of six harassing behaviors asked about in the survey from someone they were dating or had been on a date with, such as being touched in a way that made them uncomfortable or rumors being spread about their sexual history.

    "Though men might think women have guys queuing up to date them (which sounds great right?) in reality women face plenty of dating challenges," Quinn said. "They may feel emotionally drained by dating, as they push through dates where they don't feel a connection. If they're seeking a relationship they may struggle to tell which guy's going to be in for the long haul, and who will disappear at the first inkling of commitment. They may even not know how to get offline and actually meet men in real life; and get stuck in the belief that all the 'good men' have run out, and it's impossible to meet someone."

    ADVERTISEMENT

    The dating coach added that women also face significantly more judgement around things like their age, which can be a challenge on dating apps; and more scrutiny for expressing their sexuality. "So don't think that just because she's got a queue of potential suitors that she's not having a hard time dating."

    We all can be douches to one another. Let's not.

    And it's always on us, don't dress that way, don't walk there, don't provoke. When it happens we didn't fight enough, fought too hard, didn't say no, didn't mean it when we said it. If we report it we get blamed, re traumatized by questions and rape kits that are then left untouched, called liars.

    It's not about locating the witness. It's about scaring the bad guy by becoming a potential witness. Some women even resort to making fake calls on their way home. I'd say it stops at least some horrible people so that's an improvement.

    Not trying to be sexist to turn it around on women here, but this reminded me of a woman I went out with a few times. At one point she told me that she never brushes her teeth and that our mouths are naturally designed to cleanse themselves. Yeah, there wasn't another date after that. I don't care what gender you are, basic hygiene is a must. I felt disgusted that we had kissed before that.

    Personal hygiene and grooming is important; I'm not touching anything that's less hygienic and groomed than I am! And I don't have unrealistic expectations either. Brush your teeth; wash your hands and clean and trim your nails; bathe regularly; I don't care about body hair, just be clean and tidy; and there is a difference between natural body smell and body odour!

    Once I dated a guy who didn't wear deodorant. He lived in Barcelona, so in the summer his BO was impossible to tolerate. I kindly asked him to start wearing deodorant and he said that if I liked him that much I wouldn't care about his smell. How do you explain Basic hygiene to an adult?

    She should have found some one better before going to bed, and left this guy at the bus stop. Or in some cases nothing is better. That is to say that sleeping alone would be better than this guy.

    When guys plan to stay the night they never bring clean clothes for the next day (not even underwear) and never a tooth brush... I don't know a single woman who plans to spend the night and don't bring a whole bag, with clothes, make up, tooth brush, etc

    He really doesn't like being told to do stuff, so he tells her to find someone else? Besides, she wasn't telling him to do something, she asked him to do something that is basic hygien.

    I have a friend that has really bad breath. All the time. I haven’t said anything to him, as I’m afraid to, but it’s pretty difficult to have a conversation with him and not make a face of some kind while talking. I don’t know if his wife knows and hasn’t said anything either, or if she’s just used to it? I couldn’t date anyone with bad breath. It’s incredibly hard to kiss someone. Just as hard to kiss someone who smokes (cigarettes or pot).

    lol. This is so funny. Just last night I wen to bed and after smelling my fresh breath, my bf says to me that he brushed his teeth earlier before he came over. OK so for context in-between him coming over and going to bed he ate a giant sushi dinner... I was like, you do realize you should brush after you eat? Not just like a random time during the day. lol He's a nice guy just a bit silly.

    This one is different. They have spent maybe one night together. Who knows, he forgot a toothbrush? She should have asked about the reasons in private, not in written (we see here what happens to written texts, he knows that too). At first he agreed to work the problem. "Everyday" if they are not together is out of line indeed.

    I have so much respect for the middle school I attended. All genders took tech class (basically wood shop, with a bit of electronics mixed in) for 9 weeks every school year, and all took home ec where they learned to cook, sew by hand, and eventually use a sewing machine. Skill was not based on gender - it was based on the effort you put in.
