Dating in 2026: Why It Feels Harder (And What Actually Works Now)

Dating in 2026: Why It Feels Harder (And What Actually Works Now)

Author: Tripp Kramer February 19, 2026 Duration: 28:44

In this episode we break down what changed, what didn't change, and what to focus on if you want to start winning when it comes to women and dating. You'll learn why dating apps are more brutal than ever, how AI and fake profiles are messing with the game, and why the average guy has gotten more passive, which means the guy who takes action now stands out even more. We also cover the fundamentals that still work (confidence, presentation, social skills, lead volume), the 3 mistakes killing your results (waiting to feel ready, treating texting like the game, playing not to lose), and one simple assignment you can do this week to get your momentum going. If you’re tired of guessing and want a clear strategy that works now, this one will hit.
