Dating Dictator 

An individual who cannot get their own dating in order, so instead they attempt to dictate to others who, if, how and why those others date in order to feel relevant.

A dating Dictator often tends to sit on dating related videos on YouTube, attempting to dictate to people they will never meet how to date..
"you should be a man and ask out this person, take her here, buy her this specific gift, and buy her dinner" - dating dictator

At the pow wow, I got to see Native American Fancy Dancing & was Quite Impressed! They give an amazing show! I loved it so very much!

Dating Expert 

One of the many on Youtube proclaiming themselves as a "dating expert", in order to make money fleecing the desperate and lonely, mainly targeting men.

A dating coach strings viewers along with ineffective advice, deliberately. First it’s buy this program//book. Use this "magic word", send her this text, stand on this angle (yes, seriously!), wear this and "buy my course to get the dream girl you deserve" . A week or two later, it's use THIS magic word, send her THESE texts, and wear something ELSE. Buy this book. Now another few videos and a course that will "get you your dream girl". Then it's the same procedure, for months on end, with each video differing from the last in some form.

Think about this, they do countless videos on so called “advice”. Now, if this “free” advice was valid, why are they constantly a)bringing out overpriced books/courses etc, for which they sometimes shame and guilt trip people into buying? and b)making video after video for months on end with “advice” that conflicts with previous videos?

Also, the fact that a lot of dating experts have “shills”, as well as fake comments like “Oh I’m glad I found your video by accident today, best advice ever” or “Buy their course guys, it’s really good and changed my life” speaks volumes.
Dating expert: "Buy my $5k relationship mastery course, it will get you your dream girl".
Dating Expert 3 months later : "sign up for my $2k course on how to get your dream girl".

"Oh I dont watch those reality dating shows.."
