In this special Emergency drop of The Short Game, Drew Meitner steps away from the usual business playbook to analyze a fundamentally broken social economy: the modern dating market. For driven men in their 20s and 30s, the landscape has completely shifted. Dating apps and social media have created a rigged attention economy that artificially inflates options and funnels matches toward a tiny fraction of CEOs, VIPs, and clients.
This episode takes a raw, data-driven look at the harsh realities of modern courtship. We break down the illusion of endless choice fueled by filters and OnlyFans, the psychological toll on good men playing a zero-sum game, and the paradox of modern women wasting their prime years chasing casual encounters. Finally, we define what a truly rare, grounded 50/50 partner actually looks like today, and why your ultimate strategy must always be focusing on your own baseline value.
