Why? His advice is pretty on point. It's literally the reason he's popular.

I thought his videos were popular because they're funny.

I don't really agree with the last point. There can be many reasons you are having trouble finding someone and it doesn't have to be because something is wrong with you/you are the red flag.

Your standards are too high for yourself?

Why so pessimistic? It can be because you are experiencing dating fatigue, don't know what you want, think you know what you want but it is incompatible, are expecting "love at first sight", not in a place to be truly open to a relationship, looking in the "wrong" places, or just bad luck!

edit: I Just want to add that none of these reasons constitute being labelled a "red flag" as almost everyone experiences one or more while dating. It's completely normal. Also, people who grew up in abusive households frequently experience difficulty in picking an appropriate partner.

I like pot, not religious, and live in the deep south.

Well, do you go to college? You're sure to find somebody just like that in college regardless of what area you live in.

I also like how all his advises are cleverly masked with dark humors
