Don't y'all just feel so bad for all the nice guys out there! They seem to have the hardest lives ever. They wake up, brush their teeth, feed the homeless, rescue a puppy, and then get screwed over by evil women. It's quite the lifestyle. No wonder they always finish last, they're too busy being amazing!

But, seriously why is it always the guys who complain about being nice that aren't actually nice at all. The whole, 'Pity me, girls aren't attracted to me even though I respond to all their polls on Insta' is getting really old. Also PSA: Nice is not a personality trait, so maybe find something else that makes you special.

In the digital dating era, finding a meaningful relationship behind the screen of your smartphone can be an undoubtedly daunting task. With the overwhelming plethora of applications and photographs, men and women have to siphon through at any given time it is particularly difficult to make a solid impression.

Take notes, ladies, we teamed up with dating blog The Single Society and interviewed a pool of guys to find out what pictures drive men crazy (and not in a good way) when searching for love on the interwebs.

Modern romance is something else. Meaning I'm not really sure it exists anymore. Dating apps have taken over all our phones in recent years, and we've all been the victims of some pretty strange messages. Twitter user @solodeauxleaux asked people to share the weirdest messages that they received on the apps, and things got super weird real quick.

As if dating wasn't hard enough, sometimes men say things on a date that make you wonder if they have any brain cells at all. It seems pretty obvious that on a first date, you should be on your best behavior, which includes not commenting on women's bodies, not being creepy, and not voicing any extreme views you might have. But it seems some guys missed the memo. Together with The Single Society, we bring you a comprehensive list of the absolute dumbest things men have said to women on first dates. Honestly, there's stupid, and then there's these. Enjoy!

Flirting is a subtle art that, unfortunately, not everyone possesses the natural finesse to deliver. When it comes to texting your crush, there are unwritten rules of the dos and don'ts that will either get you that date or turn them off forever. Nestled somewhere among the don'ts is the overuse of role plays, specifically the *insert action* template. No one wants you to spell out action by action what you would be doing if you were in person, especially if you're saying creepy things. It's not cute, it's not sexy, and it will only end badly for you. Trust me on this one. If you don't believe me, read through these texts.

As you scroll through these pictures, you'll cringe on behalf of the people posting them, and feel sorry for the people who have to swipe on them. Honestly, they are too much!

We have teamed up with The Single Society to bring you all these freaky things people were asked for during sex. Yikes!
