The End
Roosh says,
There are only so many ways I can tell a girl that a guy isn’t into them. When starting this blog I never thought 85% of the questions would come from women. Because my main skill is in helping men, I know that my typical “move on” advice to women was probably not all that helpful to them. When the goal of a woman is to find one man to nest with, they don’t want to hear it when you tell them to find another guy. In that respect, I failed.
From working with Kathryn, I clearly see how tough dating is for people our age. Because of this there is an industry composed of dating books, seminars and workshops, and as long as men and women need to physically mate to continue the species, there will always be a demand for dating advice. While we can’t confirm if our advice helped bring two people together, I think we helped the human race more than not.
My final advice is for everyone still working on that one crush. I know it is fun to have a project, to work on that one guy or girl you really like. But it never fails that the more you really like them, the less chance you will get with them. Liking a person a lot before intimacy occurs is a good sign that they their value is considerably higher than yours. In other words, they can do better. It is not until I stopped valuing women that things fell into place for me.
Perhaps if we only answered one question a week could we keep it going and stay fresh, but the daily nature of the blog doomed us from the start.

Boy, did I love this site. What a great idea: he said/she said advice from Roosh, the man I affectionately refer to as my dick kid brother, and me, old lady looking for love. How could we go wrong? And for a while, it seemed like we might actually be helping people. Or at least entertaining them.
But lately, when I’m reading the new questions that come in, I find myself thinking we’ve already answered them. I search for the questions in old posts, certain that the person must have submitted twice, but never find them. I’ve come to the slow realization that everyone just has the same problem, over and over, in different terms but agonizingly similar patterns. And I’ve started to dread answering their questions. How many times can I say he doesn’t like you, you don’t like him, she is playing you for a fool, or he’s a lying, heartless bastard? I think I’ve exhausted my supply of “it’s not working and you should recognize it” euphemisms, both kind and unkind. So it’s time to stop.
To everyone whose questions we’re leaving unanswered, I apologize. I encourage you to read the archives - you’re bound to find something you can apply to your own situation.
And to everyone else, thank you for eleven months of helping me feel like I’m not quite as dumb about relationships as I once thought. Some of you are way dumber.
XOXO
We will still continue our individual blogs…
