I don't think im good looking at all, but I might be a psyco-broad magnet. Im nothing like I act on the internet, I more reserved than anybody would care to believe. I perfer solitude over big crowds. But, Yes, I attract odd broads, offered sex and marriage, wives ask their hubbies if they can "have" me, I decline everyghint. Had a horrable marriage 20 years ago and im done. I might be cursed or something?

Interesting analogy.

[Evans, Marv]

I can only account what I've heard widows say to me. One is: "I like having a man around." Another is: "I've never been without a man in my life." I found those statements odd since they both suggested some kind of status to having a "man" around.

[PorscheGAL]

It's not "status". It's fear. Fear of being alone; Fear of not knowing how to deal with things like home maintenance or finances (Whatever the division of marital labor they had no part in).

[Gretch]

Yet it would seem there are plenty of women more than happy to live alone, in fact crow about it incessantly.......

such a confusing species...........

I didn't say we make things easy

He was a retired painter that had never left his hometown and was in his late 70s (with some equally unaccomplished kids and grandkids). The only TV he watched was the RFD channel and raised a few chickens for eggs. He was quite unaccomplished and really not well informed...although seemed a fairly decent guy. Not even much of a physical specimen (about 5'5" and 120 lbs). Once married, he did not last long.

Wait...what happened? Was it death by boola boola?

its almost like "women" is actually a population of about 4 billion different individuals who all have different experiences, different needs, wants, and desires for the future.

i would advise that anyone who clumps together women or men, into some kind of homogenous, population with uniform wants, needs and life experience is giving out bad advice. ignore it. "women" dont want one thing, women are thousands of individuals, who want many things. men likewise, want many different things.

dating is done on an individual level, not a population level. its about connection, not features. its not like buying a car, its about forming an interdependency, a connection, a team.

Hey guys, you know Teddy Baldasarre, that luxury watch dealer who sells out of Cleveland? Here's his girlfriend giving dating advice. I'd say you should heed her well, although it's extremely doubtful she'd give any of the single guys here more than a glance...

Here's Teddy giving her a watch:

Odd couple? When I first found Teddy on youtube when trying to figure out why some here are so addicted to wearing $thousands on their wrists, I made the mistaken assumption that he didn't like girls much. Boy was I wrong about that!

NEVER EVER take dating advise from a woman. Women (typically) don't understand men and will only view things from the female imperative. They don't understand male mating strategies simply because they don't need to. Its the man who has a biological need to understand female nature, since he's the one pursuing. All the woman needs to do for the most part is exist and men will pursue.

The next reason is that women often don't know what they want. They'll claim to want a nice, caring, man who they can connect with emotionally but than hook up with the bad boy who treats them like crap. He treats them like crap because he has options and women are ultimately attracted to men with options, so never ever ever take dating advise from a woman.

this is 100% awful advice. definitely redpill, borderline blackpill.

if you dont think the person you are dating knows what they want and can be trusted to know what they want, you shouldn't be dating them. period. they are a child if thats the case.

Times and situations change, so do personal inspiration and goals, memories build up, boredom and routine sets in, new stimuli beckons and tempts.

I don't think anyone can be trusted to really 'know what they want' from the get-go.
That's life. We adapt and improvise, or move on.

"from the get go"

is he dating 16 year olds? probably not. most adults know what they want from life and relationships. this isnt their first rodeo.

and if they dont, you shouldnt date them.

Sometimes.

I had two older sisters, each sought to provide their younger brother with their own perspective on dating and men.

They were earnest and wrong about 90% of the time but I got some nuggets.

Pay attention. You'll both know in under a minute if there is mutual attraction.

The rest is easy.
