Be open minded, truthfull and honest. You will begin to see a different world. You are master of your life... if you are unhappy with the world around you... CHANGE IT!
This world isnt any worse or any better then it has been. nothing is more annoying then the: i am afraid to bring a child into this world. Statistically speaking, crime is the same. think people have gotten worse? Go to the Roman Colseum and tell me if that would happen today. The thread starter is a wimp. he has opted out of life and trying to make himself seem superior for it. instead of trying to make it through trial and error like the rest of us, he just opts out. The cowards way out. Real men keep trying.
I think the op has probably seen a good measure of the realities of relationships today, and if has made the choice to be celibate... and sees the reality of relationships, as such, it is through his own experience... that he has done so... and we need to respect his observations, and his choices.

So you are celibate but think you can make decisions on relationships and tell us all how rotten they are? Why would your friends even come to you for advice? that is like going to a priest.
Nothing is more annoying then the: i am afraid to bring a child into this world. Statistically speaking, crime is the same. think people have gotten worse? Go to the Roman Coliseum and tell me if that would happen today.
But when he tries to make us believe that his beliefs apply to everybody, that those who participate in and enjoy sexual relationships are deluded or conniving or immoral, he is asking for trouble. We have all had our ups and downs with regard to our sexual relationships; but unlike the OP, most of us think the benefits and pleasures of them more than worth the risks, failures and embarrassments. When someone whose knowledge of human sexual affairs is obviously limited and negative presumes to advise those who know better from personal experience, he must expect to be treated with ridicule and even contempt.
Yes there are bad people in this world. There have always been bad people in the world. there are wicked people. But the people who think the world is not fit to bring children in watch too much news and think that somehow, the ax murderer you hear about 8 states away affects them.
