CNBC - The dating experience is more rewarding for men than women, according to recent data from Match. 63% of men said dating helps them be a better version of themselves, but only 46% of women said the same. 44% of men said dating over the last year helped them grow and improve as a person. Why are men leaving dates more self-actualized than women? Perhaps because they are using their date as free therapy. Men have less intimate friendships: Only 30% of men reported having a private conversation with a friend during which they shared a personal feeling in the last week, according to a survey by the Survey Center on American Life. For women, this number was 48%. It's not surprising that they also report being more lonely than women, according to a 2021 study.
