Ladies: We Hear You Too

Dating today is just as hard for us as it is for you.

Ladies: We Hear You Too
Pintrest

I was reading an article from another content creator about women in their twenties having issues with guys like the Netflix and chill, texting I am here etc. Fair enough I get the where she is coming from, and it is also an issue. One thing she did say was demand better. Rightfully so, you should, but as a guy I demand better as well. Being a guy in this dating world is so hard. I am expected to go through hoops, make the first move etc. I honestly tried to take a girl on a nice dinner date and was rejected. Fair enough I was but the point is that prince charming you want to see at your door, calling you etc is out there. Unfortunately he has either not matured yet or is trying to, but cannot. I really want to take a lady out to dinner, maybe a movie, talk get to know her and see where things go. I will text you I am here so you know but I will meet you at your door, walk you to my car and open every door. At dinner I will get you your seat, and be a civil man at the table. I'll take the bill for spending time with me too. How hard is doing that these days. Very hard.. even for guys. Either we are both males and females hard working; at school, studying abroad, or countless other excuses for normal civil dating. We are more concerned about swipes, likes, looks and superficial things. I would love to take a beautiful woman out but also in the process get to know her. Ladies, do you not agree?

I can message someone and they never message back after a day of talking, I am always worrying about if this is a catfish, maybe a troll. Also I wonder if this girl is just as serious as me. I have been caught between a triad of men for one girl also. Honestly I had more positives meeting people off of YikYak ( crazy stuff ) than Tinder or Bumble combines for a whole year. And I used YikYak for three months.

Ladies.. we, the prince charming's, are here, we are hard to find as we are looking for you in this crazy dating world. We want the same things, we want to show our ladies off, we want to take you out and best of all we want to get to know you cause you might not be the one but also our best friend in the end too.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
