Times Women Weren’t Mad At Men, Just Disappointed

Dating men is a recipe for disappointment. I mean, in any relationship, there is undoubtedly going to be a moment where the person you're with disappoints you in some way, and most times the relationship can be salvaged.

However, men can be so consistently the absolute worst that we're not even mad that it happens anymore. We're just disappointed.

Just when the date is going well, guys like to show that they are arrogant, rude idiots who think that they're smarter than everyone (but especially women) despite being horrifically wrong. Thank u, next.

last year, I went on a date with a dude and when I told him I was reading animal farm again, he obnoxiously laughed for an entire minute and said I was too old to be reading children's books. I think about that a lot.

Men will hook up with you regularly, hang out with you for hours every week, introduce you to his friends, text you every day, and still say they don't want to date you because they still want to hook up with other girls. The worst part is I'm literally never surprised.

The Hot Girl Predicament

I wish this wasn't a horrible fact of life, but alas, it is true. Men build the tiniest hint of an ego and suddenly they think they deserve to treat you like a human garbage can.

Men Use The "Logic Over Everything" Method

ADVERTISEMENT

I don't know why men equate emotions with being irrational when they're the ones who punch holes in the wall the second life doesn't go their way. Meanwhile, you just want him to stop gaslighting you.

man: why u annoyed? you women never react logically like men. Woman: you have the emotional intelligence of a teaspoon. Your inability to connect or understand basic emotions doesn't make you logical, it makes you inconsiderate and frustrating. Getting pissed is the most logical and rational reaction you fool
