And let's be honest - I haven't met many 30 and 40-something single men in this city who put a basic amount into their appearance and aren't socially awkward. Start with the basics and go up from there.

This resonates so hard.

I'm 38, and I try to retain some semblance of hygiene and presentability. There are guys from highschool I would run into around town and I'm just like..... why do you look like that?

[Badhobz]

^hey fuck you too !

[bcrdukes]

I am curious what kind of people you guys hang out with.

Who here on this forum have I met who doesn't look presentable and has poor hygiene?

Edit: Scratch that.

Everyone at the meat ?!?

I am thankfully in a LTR with my sights on marriage/kids as I've always wanted. But man, I went through this shit for years on end trying to figure it all out. Once I learned what it is a lot of these girls are looking for and how many guys they're juggling, I was just done. I even had a year or so where I stopped looking entirely due to the frustration of it all.

For the record, I've never juggled relationships. Hell, I didn't even feel right talking to multiple girls on apps at the same time. I simply wanted to focus on one and see if it would work out. Little did I know a lot of them have rosters to go through and I was a fool for putting focus/attention on just one. It gets confusing when I talk to multiple and I feel bad when I forget what I've told this or the other.

This is not a brag or anything, but connecting with girls typically wasn't an issue for me. It was finding one who actually valued me beyond income that was the real challenge. When people just think of you as their ATM, it very quickly eliminates them from your process.

I remember some 5/10, legit MID Asian girl on an app who actually had the audacity to post in her profile "I only date home owners". Just, wow.

[bcrdukes]

"I only date home owners"

Wow.

[Badhobz]

5 C's coming back into vogue for dating.

What the hell are the 5c’s ?

Cunt

Character: Borrower's credit history, reputation, and payment patterns.
Capacity: Ability to repay the loan from income.
Capital: Borrower's own financial investment in the venture.
Collateral: Assets pledged to secure the loan.
Conditions: Economic factors and loan purpose.

You rich guys probably never been explained why you got turned down for a Civic lease coming out of high school.

I’ve never heard of all this bullshit “strategies” when it comes to dating. Ridiculous. More reason to seek prostitutes.

I've been telling them I'm a dirty renter.

But for the 8.5/10+ girls, I tell them I co-own a business they frequent and its kinda pay to win

I remember hearing about the Singaporean 3 C's for dating:

1. Cash
2. Card (credit)
3. Condo (more expensive than public housing apartments)

90's dating criteria in Singapore and a lesser extent HK

Cash (self explanatory)
Car (expensive in Singapore/HK)
Condo (more expensive than HDB public housing in Singapore, and self explanatory in HK)
Credit Card (back then CC was less common)
Country Club Membership (very expensive luxury in Singapore/HK)

I was hoping dating in HK/Singapore/China would be better

Based on your suggestion, I took the opportunity to run some numbers and to help you guys visualize this using a microeconomics lens on your companionship choices. Here's a simple consumer choice model using the Cobb-Douglas utility to illustrate how preferences, prices, and budgets interact.

Let's draw out a few assumptions to level set how we'll approach the matter given how passionate people are about the topic.

Assumptions
Option A: A traditional relationship with a Vancouver girl (since we're talking about this)
Option B: A professional service (this is open to your interpretation)

We’re not judging anyone here - this is just about how money, preferences, and extra costs affect decisions especially since we seem to agree that dating and women's expectations are highly unrealistic.

The Setup
Imagine you earn $80K a year (about $6,667 a month). This is to account for your average Vancouver guy with poor hygiene and social awkward tendencies. Let's ignore inflation and any side hustle incomes, inheritances etc.

I think we can all agree that spending time together costs money:
Relationship with a girl: $100 per hour
Professional companionship: $300 per hour

We also value quality differently:
Relationship hour = 1 “quality point” (Because Badhobz hates women who keep nagging him)
Professional hour = 4 “quality points” (because it’s convenient and predictable)

Relationships often come with extra monthly costs (housing, lifestyle etc). Let's test this by adding a $2,000 fixed cost to see the impact.



What the Chart Shows

Panel A:
Blue line = relationship budget
Orange line = professional budget
Purple line = relationship budget after adding $2,000 fixed cost

The more the line shifts inward, the fewer hours you can afford.

Panel B:
Shows “effective quality hours” (how much value you get) as income grows.

At $6,667/month:
Relationship (no extra cost): ~27 hours
Relationship (+$2,000 cost): ~19 hours
Professional: ~36 quality hours

The Big Picture
Adding long-term costs shrinks your budget for other things and reduces how much time you can afford in a relationship with a Vancouver girl or a professional companion.

Even though the professional option costs more per hour, its higher quality score means you might get more value for the same money. This isn’t about right or wrong - it’s about trade-offs. Price, quality, and extra costs all matter. I think we can all relate to this when modding our cars using the Holy Trinity formula: Fast, Cheap, Reliable: Pick two.

Why This Matters
Next time you think “Professional companionships are too expensive!”, ask yourself:

1. Does it deliver more value per hour?
2. Are there hidden costs in a traditional relationship that changes the picture?
