The superficiality of society. The obsession with body. With looks. With money. with status. People are attached to everything except God.
Dating is at an all-time low. Women use their bodies in search of love. Men use their money to return the favor. How do we not see how ridiculous this is? Dating is transactional in modern times. The man and woman are both objects that trade resources. Dating apps have made female validation skyrocket to depths it’s never touched before. Instead of waiting at a bar, a woman needs to look no further than Tinder for loads of matches from thirsty men. This in return delusions the perceptions of the masses, stabbing dating dynamics viciously.
Men on the other hand seek sex like puppets. Lust laughs as they are pulled into whatever direction it desires. Besides their mental prisons, they seek money and status in whatever way possible…in hopes that they can get the most attractive woman to toss on their merry-go-round of girls.
What are we doing? Does anyone else understand how absurd this is? The divorce rate is fifty percent and has been for years. People are getting married less and less. Anxiety and depression have skyrocketed over the past decade and isn’t slowing down. Toxicity is trendy and Religion is on the decline. Radical feminism is sprinkled across the masses and masculine philosophies have been created to combat it. Tiktok is full of women mocking men for their height, income or looks. Men do the same, attacking women for their looks or status. We live in a society of projection and insecurity, and it shows. Validation is a short-lived drug that is gone the following day. Is this what we’ve become?
People are attached to physical body. Men need to be ripped and women need the perfect curves. Well folks, there you have it. We are obsessed with something that will grow old and wrinkly one day. We are obsessed with an inch of skin. We are obsessed with something that is only an injury away from looking “ugly.” We are obsessed with attracting each other through sex, thus creating a society of confused and lost singles. If you attract someone with your body, then you best believe they will leave you for that exact same reason.
If a man gets a woman because of his status or income, how does he feel knowing he is only one hardship away from losing her too? He loses his job; he loses his girl too. Is this what he wants? Does he not care that his character, personality and feelings are meaningless overall? He is nothing more than an ATM that smiles.
Society needs spirituality so deeply. Dating needs spirituality. Dating is thirsty for God. It is thirsty for some form of faith.
People should step back. Honestly look at what they are doing and what they hope for in a partner. Do we not want honest authenticity? Do we not seek honest love? Do you not want a man or woman who will stick by your through all suffering and trials?
Women and men have checklists that could fill pages to what they need in a partner. A woman needs a tall, attractive, rich man. A man needs a curvy beautiful woman with perfect smile. This is a monumental issue in society: Most people will be searching for something that won’t be found. We have expectations that are ridiculous. We have a society of individuals who think they are models because of social media. We are a society of ghosting because we’re weak and too lazy to show love through communication. This is dreadful for dating. Our minds are delusional.
And honestly, both sex’s need to tear off a couple pages from their list of “needs” in a partner. Your poor lists will be sitting until you’re old.
We need spiritual relationships to make a comeback. We need spiritual connections that create powerful couples that don’t justify bad behavior. We need more love, not bashing each other’s sex. We need couples who have eternal perspectives, not worldly perspectives that die with their riches.
The sad reality is so many couples will live and die never actually feeling love. Instead, their obsession with materials and superficiality will always be their God. Validation will be their God. Sex is their God. Money is their God.
The irony of all of this is many men and women who are single desire a “Godly” partner but they themselves are devilish in nature. Do they really believe that someone who is Godly looks back and finds a slither of attraction? You attract what you project. Even an atheist can admit that a Godly individual of the opposite sex is attractive. Conservative is attractive. Why? A conservative individual has discipline and purpose. They have value in their potential partners and are aware of it. They know their value and resist their desires for something greater.
Become what you hope for in a partner…and allow God to be the matchmaker, not tinder.
I’m not a big “god person” in the Christian sense but I absolutely agree with so much being said here! Well written also.
