I am a very disciplined guy with a decent job. I take care of my parents, provide for them. I am hard working, ambitious, always do everything in a planned way. I am typical nice guy type but I know my boundaries. But I don't understand why girls gets attracted to the bad guys, guys having no plans for their future, don't even value them just want their body. Unfortunately the girls are ready to give their body and mind to them and once they are done they throw the girl away. But again they fall for the same type of guys and the cycle repeats. If you are not that type of guy, they don't consider you as a man and insult you. I just want to know why most of the girls nowadays are like this. They hurt the good people and chase the wrong ones. Maybe there are good girls, but chances of finding them is very less. Want to know how to overcome this. I have almost lost hope now. I don't want to change myself for some girl but I also want someone in my life who can really support and love me.

Ans: It could be that you are searching at wrong places. It also could be that you have not done enough self reflection about yourself. I have written some blogs on this topic which you can find on my brand page - check that out, may make you reflect.

Relationship
Hi, I'm soon to be 36 M, unmarried and never had any relationship in all my years, I have registered myself with many matrimony sites and have been searching for a girl or maybe a woman now, for last 5 or 6 years. My problem is that most girls in matrimonial reject me out right for reason like looks, money/property, age, etc, now I have asked some of my friends discreetly about my looks and I'm very confident about myself, also I know I do earn good bucks, despite that I don't understand what could be possible reason to not even have a single conversation before they reject someone. I have even tried my hands on dating apps, but I have not had success there as well. Some time I feel worthless and have breakdowns because of this. I don't have anyone to share this with and I know no one cares about it anyway as everyone has their own problem and you will be the last thing in their mind. I know the answer I'm going to get here - "keep trying", "life is not fair" etc, but I feel this is total crap, why does no women want a man who would respect her and care for her, why cry later for justice, domestic violence and cheating. After all this, I'm losing hope that I'll find my or any love in this world.
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I agree what's happening to you is not fair, and however you are feeling right now, it is valid. But having said that, you can't justify saying "why cry later for justice, domestic violence and cheating." These are entirely different and serious matters. Do not trivialize them. Rejecting a man who would've loved her does not automatically mean the woman deserves to find a man who should cheat, beat, or abuse her.

Now, coming to your issue, rejection comes for several reasons; it doesn't necessarily have to do anything with your appearance. Since you mentioned getting rejected even before a conversation, my first guess would be that the profile might not be standing out in the crowd of profiles out there. You can try adding hints of humor to your BIO to make it more attractive. Use the 70-30 method in your Bio, where 70% of it showcases you as a person and the remaining 30 subtly indicates your version of an ideal partner. Additionally, try optimizing your DP and select something that shows your fun side.

But I would like to remind you that not everyone's love story runs at the same pace; some take time to start. I know you think it's cliched but people say it because it has truth to it- keep going; I am sure you will find someone.

Best Wishes.
