Dating has always been a complex and nuanced aspect of human interaction, shaped by societal values, technological advancements, and individual behaviors. In recent times, a phenomenon known as "selfication" has emerged, reflecting a cultural shift towards increased self-focus and individualism. This essay explores the problem of dating in the context of selfication, examining how the growing emphasis on self-interest is impacting relationship dynamics. As people become more focused on their individual needs and desires, dating has become a challenging terrain, requiring a reevaluation of traditional norms and the development of new strategies for meaningful connections.

this is an amazing analysis! I really hope this video gets to more people. I have found some beliefs and behaviours of mine in this essay and it trully is eye opening. It's sad that we, as a society, trianed ourselves to take something as intimate and precious as romantic love and turn it into a pretty prize to be exposed and valued by others. Connection took a secondary place to showing off and the expectations of sharing a life with the other turned into expectations of how is this person going to serve the narrative I'm currently building for my life. Again, thanks for the amazing essay, I'll stay tuned for more

Thank you so much Aranxa for viewing my content and finding it insightful. It warms my heart to see people commenting positively on my videos like you do. I agree with you wholeheartedly that we, as a society, have been trained to think this way, and as you say, see potential partners as something that will serve only our own narratives, instead of it being a collaborative venture where Each Other is not sacrificed, but empowered and built upon for a Shared Vision of life and companionship towards shared fulfillment. We can only hope and be kind to one another moving forward within our own life spheres. By being kind, supportive and empathetic to our friends, family and colleagues, maybe, just maybe, we can move the needle to a much gentler world. Thank you for viewing my content. I will aim to do more video essays about these kinds of topics. All the best.

Hi Billy, Congratulations on the video, it's very complex world that we live at the moment, and as you said on your video, at the moment we dont have any guidelines from what to do, except to have empathy and be good to each other, this society have seen enough of greed and pure individualism, we need to move into a our society mentality and not my society.

Thank you so much Ramon. Yes, sadly, we live in a society focused on greed and pure individualism. As you said, the best thing to do in our own personal lives is to be good to each other and have the empathy to understand what others are going through. As I always mention to my friends and colleagues, the goal of life is to get from Me to We, but not at the expense of Each Other. Take care on your journeys Ramon!

amazing video, but very poor music selection. Doesn't fit the video nor make you feel interested, hope you improve soon! Subbed

Thanks for the sub. I will aim to improve moving forward. For now, I only have RU-vid audio library to back up my music selection because I'm not making any money doing these. Very limited selection, unfortunately. But I will take your feedback into great consideration as music does affect engagement and retention. Nonetheless, thanks for viewing my content. Have a nice day now!

Its more the 80/20 rule where 80% of the women go for 20% of the men leaving the rest to pick for scraps. This isnt some incel theory just look up okcupids research on dating statistics

Standards have simply rose to where they should be. In relationships back then the only thing most men had of value to women was as money. Now that women have relatively equal economic states they want people now not bank accounts

The answer is to be your best possible self. You do not deserve anything for not striving. I'm sorry. It's something I've had to realize to, and my pit is a dark and shallow one I must climb out of, but victimizing myself will not accomplish what I want. What you stated is true; but I concur that it means that the majority of men are in fact somewhat entitled. We must all be our best selves. It is the objective of life, and the antidote to all suffering. Read Dosteovsky. or watch. Doesnt matter. and then read the New Testament

@@Friendlyneighborhoodgarbagebin if you say so brother. The amount of single woman in the west will rise so significant that gp morgan has advised to add egg freezing companies to your portfolio. Meanwhile foreign fiancee visas in the us has more than tripled since 1990. Seems like a good tradeoff to me.

@@xD-lt1mqI mean studies and shown many a times single women are happier than their married counterparts, single men on the other hand are way worse of than their married counterparts, so the threat that “western women will be single ” doesn’t hold much weight, plus no women cares about whether western guys are marrying foreign girls, like no one cares
